Balıkçı Meyhanesi Kaleiçi

It was a beautiful place. We loved it. I highly recommend it. As a Turk living in the US, I'm proud to have such a wonderful restaurant in my country. My guests and I had an unforgettable experience. I ordered a large fish and calamari shrimp. The portions were large, and most importantly, delicious. It was the best seafood I've ever had. Thank you to the fishmonger's tavern for giving us this experience.

This restaurant truly deserves a five-star rating! The seafood platter was absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and packed with a perfect variety of shrimp, mussels, and crab that tasted like they were just caught. Every bite was a delight, with the natural sweetness of the seafood shining through. And the curry chicken? It was a standout too! The curry had a rich, aromatic sauce that was perfectly spiced—not too hot, just right to complement the tender, juicy chicken. It paired so well with rice, I couldn’t get enough. Overall, a fantastic dining experience. Highly recommend both dishes—you won’t be disappointed!

Guys, my husband found this place on Lonely Planet, and I was worried it would be a tourist trap. But I was wrong; the place is gorgeous, perfect for your food pics. The service was great, not annoying but attentive, and the food is the food you want—it's turkey! Come here and thank me later.

Definitely a family restaurant. If you're looking for a nice dinner or lunch with your family, I highly recommend it, as they also have a couples-only venue. For those looking for entertainment, there's also a live music section, so you can bring your friends along. We really enjoyed the food and appetizers. Our waiter was incredibly kind, friendly, and tolerant. Thank you so much for that. It's one of the few restaurants in Antalya where delicious food meets atmosphere. If you're in Antalya, I definitely recommend stopping by before you leave.

The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and every dish we tried was absolutely delicious. I’d happily return for another visit! The staff were friendly and attentive throughout, and our waiter Kamil stood out with his exceptional service—genuinely kind and helpful

I was looking for fresh seafood and traditional Turkish music. This place delivers both to perfection. My server Mustafa was friendly, always on top of things, and made a solo traveller feel very welcome. The grilled octopus was possibly the best I've ever had. A fantastic trio played live music all night. The only loss of a star here was for atmosphere, and it's not really the restaurants fault: my table (and many others) was on a street with a fair amount of traffic and there was a soundclash with the neighbouring restaurant, whose music wasn't so good

Great restaurant, the service was amazing, food was very tasty and reasonable prices for the location. We had a meal for 3 with Raki, and we got free coffee and free fruit. If I was a local I’ll come back.

We wanted to try fresh fish on holiday and this restaurant delivered perfectly. The grouper was excellent, the service was top quality (they deboned our fish for us) and sitting outside we heard live music too. As other reviews have stated, it's not cheap, but you get good quality dishes. The bread and water are complementary, along with the fruit plate at the end.
