Şef Mehmet'in Balık Evi

This place is a true family-run restaurant, and we discovered it by chance. From the very first visit, we were blown away by the mezes - they were so delicious that we barely had room for the fish, which was excellent as well. Despite this, we couldn't finish it! We originally planned to stay in Cunda for just a few days, but after our first meal here, we decided to return the next evening to try the mezes we had missed. I'm quite particular about mezes, and this place exceeded my expectations. The warm service and friendly staff truly reflect the essence of a family-run business. It's the kind of hospitality that makes you feel at home. If you visit Cunda, this should be the first place on your list. The only minor downside is that if you visit in winter, the indoor space can feel a bit stuffy. Other than that, everything about this place is simply fantastic.

🐟A tavern located towards the end of Ayvalık seaside.It has an open but covered seating area on the sides.According to the rules, you cannot smoke inside.Inside,you can see and choose the appetizers or fishes you want to eat.Waiters attentiveness’s fine, cheerful and they’re good conversations.It is a nice place to eat and chat with the traditional Turkish drink Rakı.💵Prices are the same as other restaurants in the area around. Also, it is not a place by the sea, but it is located in a cute little street that overlooks the sea.Their salads were especially delicious.We loved the dressing of the salad👍🏼

Friendly place with live music, tasty meze combined with turkish raki. Ideal for chatting in good company

I visited this restaurant several times in the past. Good selection of mezes and seafood options. Never had any problem about service or food, location is also good. During my visit, Saturday night there was live music as well but personally I prefer to go this restaurant for lunch time.

It's not that great. We only got half of our fruit plate. On top of it. Had to ask 100 times to get something. Idk how people give 4 or 5 start to places like this. Workers are just horrible.

I was thinking about going to this restaurant for a while, so when a friend of mine came from Germany to Ayvalik, I thought that it was a good chance to try their dishes. Although the setting is nice, the dishes were standard. There was nothing extra tasty or special. Their seabass simit was different from other places (they sort of created a borek by combining fish and cheese), but I am not sure if it’s better this way. Overall, a mediocre seafood restaurant for Ayvalik standards.

Great food, very good prices. The Boss is always very careful to his customers. Great great atmosphere! Wonderful live artist!

Everything was fantastic. The fish was very fresh and well cooked. Thank you very much
