Gümüşlük Stone-Village Dinner
The slow Gümüşlük evening, Tavşan Adası in the distance, a fish house where the table is set on the gravel, and a meyhane that runs until the music stops
Karafaki Erhan Usta
Ask for Erhan Usta to walk the catch with you before ordering. Octopus salad, sea bass on the grill, plenty of mezes. The chef's name is on the sign for a reason, when you book, mention you are coming for the fish of the day.
Yalı Mevkii 1120. Sokak No:68/1, Gümüşlük, Bodrum
Okyanus Restaurant Gümüşlük
Open since 1990; the chalkboard catch list is the menu. Lagos (grouper) sis kebabı and grilled red mullet are the standing house signatures; book a waterfront table for sunset.
Gümüşlük Mahallesi, Yalı Mevki No:64, 48970 Bodrum
Aquarium Balık Restaurant
Reserve a front-row table on the sand for sunset. Order the grilled sea bream and the day-boat meze board; the Asian-fusion calamari is the long-running outlier on the card. Family-run since 1992, the Özbaşarans still work the floor.
