I saw littlereddevil's post on the other thread about a new one so it's not daunting to newcomers, even as a member I have to make sure I have the time to read through 53 pages!
So, this year we did two trips to Mozaik Bahce one in the evening for the parent's anniversary, and a second later in the holiday for lunch. We had the mixed meze to start with on both visits, very addictive and delicious! Just mind how much bread you take with it!
On our evening visit, members of our group had the chicken bbq wrap, the lamb shish, the mixed shish plate (I think) and two of us had the chicken casserole. Everyone loved what they had with forks being stretched across the table to try the different dishes. The mashed potato side that came with the casserole was amazing, I don't know what they do to it in the kitchen but I loved it so much!
Second time around, we were two less but there was a repeat of the casserole, and a bbq wrap. Mum and Dad had chicken shish while Liam began with menemen, he knows why it's one of my favourite Turkish dishes to make at uni!
The atmosphere is always relaxing whenever you go there and the service is wonderful, everyone is polite and helpful. Plus we found that a meal for 6 there was less expensive than a meal we had at Serkul 2, and that includes starters for most people in the group.
Just one question though, any chance of a Mozaik Bahce cookbook? :D
-
Oh don't!! I'm hungry now and all I've got to eat is leftover lasagne. :(
We've had 2 sets of guests in our villa this year so far and both sets loved Mozaik Bahce best of all the restaurants we recommended. As do we of course. One of our guests is a chef too. In fact they bought one of Nichola's lovely lamp shades which they managed to get home intact and is now hanging in their hallway looking wonderful.
Nichola and Dogan, I don't know if you know what a really special place you've created there but I hope you do. Thank you and keep on going for years and years please. ;D ;D
-
Agreed suzzpuss, we love it there too. So much so, when we go to fish market for dinner we always call in there for desserts and a drink. Love the walnut pancakes with ice cream and slik has the cheesecake..yum!
-
Can someone please tell us where this place is in Fethiye. We want to try it when we are back over in Sept.
-
Once again (with feeling) ;D The directions which are on their website

Have a great meal and pass on directions to your friends. :D
incidentally, this thread should be under 'Fethiye" and not Calis Beach Restaurants as the Bahce is in Fethiye.

Thanks Jaqui, promise I wont ask again : :) : :)

Arriving in Ciftlik on Tuesday evening Nichola. Got some friends joining us at the end of the week and then we'll all come and have a meal. Can't wait. Are you working most evenings? I'd like to buy some small lamps too please. Both the kind that take candles and the ones with switches. Hurrah!! ;D
-
Unbridled joy at the thought of buying lamps. Women eh :D
-
Looking forward to seeing you again Sue and yes I am there every evening and have plenty of candle holders and the popular LED battery powered lamps.
I have got a fairly large selection available at the restaurant but you are more than welcome to let me know in advance if you see any shades you like on my web site and I can bring them down for you to see.
Thanks too for the nice feedback every one :)

Oh there are several thing that give me unbridled joy Scunner. ;) Shopping isn't usually one of them but I love Nichola's lamps.

Quick question have all the cats stopped socializing here or is it still a problem for non cat people .. :-[
-
I'm not sure what you mean by the cats socializing here. As you know from previous conversations we have a zero tolerance policy on cats in the restaurant garden.
There are a couple of cats in the vicinity just like anywhere else and a couple of kittens which tend to appear late at night when most people have gone. We do everything we can to keep cats out of the garden.
If you want to come and eat just ask one of the staff for our water spray just in case. Thanks
-
We have been visiting the Bahce since it opened and have never been bothered by cats. It's the last thing we would think about. We have seen cats wandering passed but that is quite normal for anywhere in the area.
I know Dogan and Nichola would go out of there way to help anyone in the restaurant and are more than helpful by offering a water spray, which we have never needed.
Go an enjoy your meal and forget about anything else.
-
I agree Jacqui, and anyone new to CBF thinking of eating at Mosaic, GO! You're in for a treat! We've never been bothered by cats there ever. :D
-
I agree with Lotty and Jacqui, no problem with cats on our visits this year. The stray dogs in Calis are more of an issue!
-
No stray cats on Monday, no stray dogs either. I did spot a couple of Waifs with weighing scales though! :)
-
Thank you for your reply I will come and give it another try. This was not a poke at your place as your food is wonderful just when we went before we had to leave because of the cats as my wife has a fear of them.

We had the pleasure of dining at the bahce last night,firstly the food and service were excellent, My wife and I shared the hummus, and spicy pepper bread, we then shared the adnum? (arabic) kebab,and a mozaic kebab, my two kids both had the childrens chicken shish which were all fantastic.
The kids finished with an ice cream, whilst we opted for another glass of the very drinkable house red ;D We did see a couple of cats ( one kitten) but as my kids are animal lovers this was a bonus for them, although they never really came close enough to bother anyone, perhaps Nichole has the best solution,to offer the water sprays to anybody who doesn't want them near, However my kids would be more upset seeing them scared off.
Overall fantastic meal,service,reasonable prices,and a bonus for the kids,who wanted to adopt the kitten. ;D
-
Why would anyone think having kittens around a restaurant as being a plus, even if the children like animals? : :) : :)
-
Because his kids like kittens, he explained that :)
-
I absolutely love cats and adore kittens so it would be a definite plus for me, especially if I managed to get hold of one and give it a cuddle!!
-
Because the kitten in question was outside on the road where we seated, not sat on the chef's chopping board, I fail to see why this would be a problem, unless the kitten chose to go for my kebab ;D
-
Now chopping board sounds good to me ;)
-
I'm not a cat lover and didn't see any there :)
We went here for our last night on Friday as it was closed when we previously tried on a trip to Fethiye (8th August).
Yes, I can see what the fuss is about. All round this was a really pleasant experience. Food, atmosphere, service etc all really very good and seemed to be a bargain for the quality and quantity of food that we had.
Very good service and little personal touches from the owner too.
I was a bit suspicious of everyone raving about it but can see why now we have been there.

Just come back from Calis and we ate at Mozaik Bahce 3 times (for lunch and evening). Quite simply amazing. No wonder they are number 1 on trip advisor, The staff were so polite, happy and put up with us trying to speak Turkish. I dread to think what we really said to them, but they found it funny!!. Please say thank you to them all, from the nutty mum and 2 teenagers who played cards whilst waiting for our food.(BBQ wraps are out of this world).
