Terrific ocakbaşı (grill house), famed for its traditional kebabs (try an İskender or köfte), with reasonable rates and huge portions. Staff are super-eager to help you select dishes, though English can be a little lacking. It also serves decent pides, steaks and some pasta dishes, but really it's all about the grilled meat here.
