Post by: kevin3 on October 02, 2009, 11:29:15 AM
Paid my first visit to this lovely place last night with some Turkish friends.What a great setting.Really good childrens play area too.They bring the food ect' to your table,along with a lit BBQ.My friends did the cooking and I did all the hard work.Those Raki bottles are heavy.
The Cin Bal is well worth a visit.

Strangely enough the restaurant is named after the brew that the original owner used to distill at the back of the kitchen. Cin Bal means Honey Gin.

We love this place. Your on holiday but you don't mind cooking your own food on the BBQ.

Yes, they're open throughout the year.

Just bear in mind though that they can get very busy on Sundays.

Oh I love Cin Bal! We usually go in the afternoon so it's not too busy or smoky, and we usually get Cesme to BBQ for us. We always take visitors there and they all love it too. I LOVE their mezes, and the cacek (prolly not spelled correctly) is AH-MAY-ZING!

Oh my, I think a wee visit is due...

Could someone remind me of the location, is it easy to find, we are out again in 10 days and based on the reviews, we fancy a vist. We have also heard that there is another great place located in Kaya, apparently it is in a hotel complex and is open all year around, vague I know but here is hoping!

Coming from Hisaronu end it is a right turn fairly early on when arriving in the Kaya Koy conurbation.

I think the other place in Kaya you're talking about is Izela/Gunay's Gardens where my husband works. They are open Thursday to Sunday at the moment but will be open every night from 1st April. They provide free transport so give me a shout if you want my hubbies details to arrange something.
Also have to agree that Cinbal is great, I love their lamb tandir - gorgeous.

There is Ally, we used it last year and asked the driver to drop us off. Its about a 150m walk from the main road where we were dropped. Dolmus from Fethiye  :)

Went to the Cin Bal last Sunday evening, managed to get a table, just! They picked us up from Ovacik and returned us as well free of charge. What a superb evening and meal, we asked the waiter for everything traditional Turkish and we were not disappointed. Excellent selection of mezes to start, delicious over baked lamb, rice and salad as the main, traditional Turkish deserts, a lovely bottle of house white (35tl), all in 100tl for two. I would recommend this place to anyone and felt the price was very reasonable for such an excellent meal.
