Best Restaurants in Alanya – Top 20 Dining Spots
Alanya offers much more than a meal beside the beach. Damlataş and the centre have a wide choice of restaurants, Oba has its own dining spots, and the castle slopes offer a different setting. These 20 places are grouped here as options—not a ranking. Choose by location, menu and the kind of evening you want.
1. Le Chevy

17. Esma Hanım’ın Yeri
Esma Hanım’ın Yeri is on Galatasaray Caddesi in Saray. Ask about the daily home-cooked dishes and local Alanya specialities rather than expecting a fixed tasting menu.
18. Konaktepe Restaurant
Konaktepe Restaurant is in the Kestel–Yaylalı area, on the route towards Dim Cave. It is an out-of-centre option for Turkish breakfast and views; arrange transport and confirm the breakfast service.
19. Oba Kırbaşı Kebap Baklava
Oba Kırbaşı Kebap Baklava is on Eski Gazipaşa Caddesi in Oba. Kebabs and baklava are the focus, with Antep-style flavours for those seeking regional Turkish food.
20. Ramazan Ustanın Yeri
Ramazan Ustanın Yeri is in Şekerhane. Its menu includes grilled dishes, pide and home-style meals; ask whether Alanya’s Gülüklü soup is available when you visit.
Choosing and ordering
For a quick local meal, look for pide, döner or a daily cooked dish. For a longer dinner, start with meze and compare grilled meat or fish. Ask whether seafood is priced by portion or weight, and whether bread, water or other extras are charged separately.
Vegetarian labels do not answer every dietary question: confirm ingredients, meat stock and preparation where relevant. For children, ask about portion sizes rather than assuming a separate menu.
Prices, reservations and getting back
Use the current menu, not old online prices. Confirm card acceptance and any foreign-currency conversion before paying; Turkish lira is useful to carry. Check the bill, and remember that tipping is optional.
Opening hours, menus and ownership can change. Confirm the address and book ahead for a large group or a particular table. A restaurant in central Alanya may be a substantial journey from Konaklı or Avsallar. For castle-side and out-of-town meals, arrange your return transport before setting out.
