May sound a little harsh but why do we order food and drinks without knowing the price or asking, be it at Gemiler a fish restaurant in Fethiye or anywhere else.
 
Would I trust a restaurant in the English Lake District to serve food and drink without a price? No I Bl..dy well wouldn't.

Lets face it holiday hot spots all over the world can be much the same in our experience.  :)  ;) 8)

Sadly this place has been on CBF several times over the years for scamming customers. Another warning folks, Gemiler Beach = BEWARE.

You would more than likely be given a menu. If not I would be very surprised.

I would just like to point out that this is the restaurant on the right hand side as you look out to sea. The owners of this business call you in from the car park with the lure of so called free sunbeds if you use their restaurant & also inferring that you can't park unless you eat in their business and then proceed to rip people off!  >:(
The main restaurant, on the left hand side of the beach, is run by the muhtar and his family & has menus on every table and food and drink prices displayed on a board for everyone to see before they order. The food is good and reasonably priced for a beach front esablishment. It would be a great shame for this good restaurant to get tarred with the same brush as the other one or for people to miss out and avoid Gemiler altogether ???

The "rogue" restaurant is run by the ex-muhtar's family.
