The Well of the Turk
Greek-Levantine cooking down a Splantzia alley with a steam-bath well
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed May 2026
Hidden in the labyrinth behind Splantzia square, this 19th-century former steam bath serves an eclectic Greek, Turkish and Middle Eastern table that suits the old Turkish quarter. Mezze, slow-cooked meats and spice-led dishes are served in a courtyard and stone rooms well off the tourist drag. A long-running, character-rich kitchen.
