Harem Restaurant

If you want excellent food at reasonable prices then Harem Restaurant (first on the right as you step onto the sea front) is the place to visit. My family and I, 7 of us in total, had superb meals every time we ate there and the manager (or owner, we never figured out which) George, is attentive, polite, has a great memory for food and drink ordered on previous visits and is not pushy or insistent. It says somthing when it is the only restaurant we saw that was full every night we were there. The Harem special meatballs and the Pide are particularly good as is the special sizzling lamb for two.

Went here after having a disastrous evening at SAT Restaurant where we ended up leaving before our food was ordered. We came across Harem on our walk back and were really happy with the food. Swordfish was delicious and the plate was just full with food. The veggies in our group loved the options available too. Ended the evening with a good chat with George the restaurant owner. Have to admit though I couldn't help but smirk when the waiters cleaned the tables in between courses with a hand held hoover.

can only agree with the positive comments. if it's on try the Triblex, strips of chicken & beef cooked in a proper stock and served with salad and rice with prawns in it. It was a special this Monday at a mere 18.5 TL. VERY yummy. George is great and likes a little joke with you. He is, in our opinion, one of the best restaurant staff you can be looked after by. We seek him out every year...

  I take it that Mehmet is the owner. Although we've been going there for years we've never known his name(deeper voice than George) even though he's chatted to us a lot. A gentleman indeed who has now rented a restaurant in Spain to look after during the winter months: we assume that he has a manager out there during the summer. Although we wish him well with the new venture we hope that his roots will stay with Calis.
The Harem is indeed well worth a visit.

Obviously George isn't the owner then!? He had us believe he was and was telling us all about his hair implants! Well maybe he thinks he is the owner???
