Alevkayalı Restaurant

Top choice in Cyprus


Calamari cooked to perfection, superfresh fish and well-spiced sheftalia (grilled sausages wrapped in caul fat; şeftali kebap in Turkish); Alevkayalı is a top lunch spot. Generous mains come with a meze of hummus, haloumi (hellim in Turkish) and vegetables like broad beans in olive oil and pickled celery. Dine on the terrace with waves lapping the rocks below for the full experience.

Look for the signposted turn off just after the Agios Thyrsos Church on the main road between Yenierenköy and Dipkarpaz.
