A bit scruffy (fronted by old conservatory type furniture)
Good place for a pre dinner drink and a bitch at anybody passing
A bit confusing (Thought the sign Obens was "opens" mispelt)
Step down into the restaurant
Really superb food
Try the warm walnut/yoghurt starter
warm bread
lamb chops
No room for a pudding
Complimentary tea or coffee
Really friendly owner
Very attractive waitress
Worth a second visit.
Located at the end of the prom proper, next door to Mimosa frontage.

We often stop there for a snack or a cold beer but have never tried their main meals.  
Another one for the 'must do' list

I actually enjoy the token rice chips and salad.
If I want veg, I will often have as a seperate dish maybe as a starter.
We stayed over in Patara a few nights in Jukly at the golden pension.Had fasuylie for starters.Couldnt decide whether to have hot or cold. So we had one of each.Both lovely

MMM Obens was the best food we tried in the whole two weeks we were there last year, we did go to some of the "posh" restaurants, and Obens shone out for the food and the staff.  In fact we had the best meals of all our holiday in here. Good for pre and post dinner drinks watching the world go by.

Am going back this September and will definately be going to Obens, food is home cooked by Oben's mother and sister and was absolutely delicous, a real taste of Turkey.

We use Obens on a regular basis when we are in Calis , first place we go to eat, food is always top notch and staff are warm and friendly.
