We have eaten there twice since we arrived.  Menu is very good and the Chef, Hussein,has been with them for about 10 years now.   My absolute favourite meal is their Chicken Topkapi. 
We noted this last week that a lot of the restaurants were quite empty, but Georges as usual was full. Last night Serkul 1 had two tables of people and Serkul 2 had one.  Georges was full.  Only a handful of people in Enya too.  Think it is because Georges gets repeat business every year as unlike other restaurants, it has always been there unchanged for a long time  and is consistently good.
They have the puffy bread (Lavash) with butter and two mezes for free to start with.  Also cay or coffee free at the end of the meal and a small shot of banana liqueur.   Our meal last night with two rounds of drinks was  110.00 lira as I recall.   
Next year they are having a re-build of the place, with an upstairs terrace and six letting bedrooms. 
Give it a try, you will not be disapointed.

My family have eaten there many time, this summer being the most recent and we all love it! A great menu with something for everyone and the food is brilliant! Believe it or not it is one of my favourites for the quality of food! I definitely recommend it!

So you had 2 dinners last night then Jacqui,   ;) did you have dinner in Georges while you were waiting 25 mins for a table at the meeting point, I have to admire you, you are either very patriotic  to those restaurants or you have one hell of an appetite    ;) :o

Is The Eyna doing meals at night again this year? We spent most evenings there after we had eaten in other restaurants. It was usually packed but later on and until Georges had long closed... They had decided it was better this way..
It is a busy place during the day for breakfasts and coffee. Cold drinks and snacks.. etc.
