Develi 1912

This is a near 5 star review. This is a cultural institution for Turkish food. Surrender yourself to the master servers that are pros. We had a delightful and delicious dinner - beware you might be stuffed by the time you leave - all the great food we just couldn’t pass. Make reservations do you can get a great view of the marina and sunset. It is a very popular location. This particular spot specializes in meat based dishes. There are so many fantastic dishes go hungry and don’t fill up on bread and meze dishes (cold appetizers) so you can eat. There is a terrace and indoor space. We enjoyed the terrace, esp for watching the sunset with our dinner. Take your time eating, this is not a rush job. They won’t rush you either, people sit and eat for hours, it’s a cultural thing. This is not a quick meal and go type of place. If you want to avoid cigarette smoke let them know so they can sit you properly. If you drive there is a valet service too. Can’t wait to return and eat here again!

It is an authentic Turkish restaurant with a decor that seems to be a few decades old. The restaurant is located inside the Kalamiș Marina area, so almost 100 steps to street where you get on or off the taxi. The restaurant lacked signs facing the street so I had to get off the taxi and ask someone at the gate to the Marina before paying the taxi. The staff are pushy and want to serve appetizers at all costs, which I refused at the beginning. They were also careless when serving water and poured some from a distance so they accidentally spilled water on the table. It seemed like they were in a hurry. I don't think the restaurant lives up to 4 stars especially when it comes to service and taste. The only positive is that it is located by the water. Bottomline: not price worthy at all.

I like the atmosphere, the staff were so nice, the service was perfect. I like the meze and humus. The hot bread is amazing But I don't like the kebab. It smells bad a little and not to soft. And I don't recommended kenafe

Some meals in the minue are not available to be served!!! Why they had long minue; but some meals not available??!! The glass I had on my table was not 100% clean. Finally, I asked for desert after finishing my meal, they also apologised for not having it available, although it was mentioned in the minue!! Prices were good considering the quality of food and service.

Very nice fish restaurant in Fenerbahce Marina. Good selection of meze and also a veri nice selection of fresh fish and wines! Now is our second time vere and we will definitely come again other times! I recommend you aubergine salad, shrimp-avocado meze and grilled sea-bass...

One of the finest kebabs you can have any where.The service was awesome.The salad and the kebabs were just out of the world.They do serve beer and other alcoholic drinks.The side dishes were good too.Enjoyed.

Very good food . From the meze to the kebab , the fruits . Desserts options are more limited. Excellent bread . The view on the marina is a plus for the place
