With its fabulously '90s interior and Yeltsin-era feeling of luxury, Seafood Ayna is one of Ashgabat’s smarter eating options and one of the few places to get fresh seafood. There’s a sushi menu on top of the seafood menu, which includes dishes such as lobster thermidor, octopus salad and baked mussels with Parma ham. The entrance is on the side of the building, not directly on Kemine köçesi.
