Os Melhores Restaurantes à Beira-Água em Çeşme

The Kabak family's marina-side outpost where the day's catch is read off a board and the rakı arrives without asking

The original Şifne address of the Kabak fish dynasty, the quiet one, where the locals still go

The 1975 Dalyan harbour fish house that defines what a Çeşme balık restoranı should taste like

Ilıca Hotel's open-deck Aegean room overlooking the thermal bay, the resort coast's most assured kitchen

Polished Aya Yorgi cove daytime that turns DJ-led after dark, Tayu sushi kitchen on site, the contemporary half of the cove's beach-club pair

Modernised ocakbaşı with a Nişantaşı pedigree, transplanted to the marina with mixologist-led cocktails and grilled meats by the water

Since 1993, the fishing-harbour family room that defined Port Alaçatı before the marina arrived around it

Sertan's small seafood room on the Yıldızburnu cape, water-edge tables, sharp kitchen, prices that still make sense by Çeşme standards

Italian-leaning Mediterranean kitchen on the cape, pasta, wood-fired pizza and Aegean fish in a room engineered for long sea-view dinners

All-day kitchen on the yacht slips, French-leaning breakfast through midnight cocktails, run by a working chef line rather than a brand operator

Türkiye's first lobster restaurant, Tuğrul Erol's Çiftlikköy room since 1974 and Vedat Milor's consistent Aegean pick

The Yılmaz family's Çiftlikköy seafront since 2009, the quietest Çeşme fish table looking across to Sakız
