Secret Garden Calis

[clair]

I only skimmed the the first message so missed the directions apologies, I'm sure we will find it even though I have not heard of the other two places either.

Baba Firin, is the big newish Bakery on the Market Road, opposite to the D.I.Y. Shop.  If you have not heard of this bakery, i would recommend it.   Lovely bread and cakes and you can also eat there as they have a cafe.

We must have visited on a bad day. We were disappointed in our food. The lamb shanks we're tasteless swimming in a watery sauce & my friend didn't fare much better with his lamb stir fry. The staff were excellent however and we couldn't fault the friendliness. Unfortunately we won't be going back.

I was so pleased to read this post.  We visited this place in June, and we found it very ordinary, the family seemed too interested in their own problems to bother about the customers, food average, wont be going back.

We went when it first opened.
Some friends were on the next table and had just sent theirs back to be reheated.
We waited and waited to be acknowledged. A Turkish group came in and their order was taken before ours.
Would have walked out at that point but they had a special half price opening deal.
It was average food, no one spoke to us so have never been back.

According to the reviewers on TA this is currently the best restaurant in Calis.

While I've never tried this restaurant so can't really comment, I certainly don't believe everything I read on Trip Advisor, there are a lot of comments that should be taken with a large pinch of salt!

T.A. lump Fethiye together with Calis and often Oludeniz, Hsaronu and Ovacik.  It is confusing.
At the moment  Secret Garden is No.3 on the list.  Mozaik Bache is No.2.  With an Ice Cream place No.1.
This is the list.

This was one of our favourites, in fact I wrote a review on it in June. However, we had our last meal of that stay there and pushed out the boat with a steak dish (can't remember what the dish was probably a casserole). If I had soled my shoes with the "steak" and worn them every day since, they would still be in excellent condition. It was impossible to chew through! Shame, as they were excelling at the value for money meals and the breakfasts (English) were enormous and very good. We haven't bothered to try it this visit.

We went last week for dinner, and found the 'secret garden' setting at the back of the restaurant very welcoming, as was the service.  However, how anyone can think the food is the best in Calis is beyond me, in fact far from it.  All four of us had different dishes and they all shared one thing in common, nicely cooked but very very bland...all four dishes did not have any taste to them at all... if the chef had even used salt and pepper I'd be very surprised!!  I had the Stroganoff, and I asked for some 'more' paprika to give it some taste, but was told they did not have any - how can you not have paprika when you have Strog on the menu??  But he did have a near empty jar of dried out chilli flakes if that would help..apparently the only spice he had!!

We won't be going back in a hurry
