Avlu Restaurant

Top choice in Eastern Mediterranean


Popular with Antakya's glitterati and the expense-account brigade, the 'Courtyard' is more about being seen and seeing than about food, though the meze (₺12 to ₺20) and grills are more than acceptable. Try to get a seat in one of the upper-level balconies looking down on the eponymous courtyard and all the action. Service is a bit cavalier.
