The food and service is outstanding so much so that we ate here two nights in a row. Alad-din and his team go out of their way to make you comfortable. It can get busy so if you can, walk by during the day and reserve your table for the evening to ensure you get a spot at the window. The prices are a bit steep but I doubt you will find better food in the area so it's worth it. Over the two days, the dishes we tried included mushroom soup, warm hummus, halloumi salad, lamb chops, lamb shank, chicken breast with sauce, and crumbed eggplant. All were 10/10. If you are not that hungry then I suggest sharing a soup, salad and one main course between two people.

Great food, best view to the Uchisar castle and very friendly and kind service. We even went twice and had one evening the famous Turkish food cooked in a clay pot. The portions are big.

The food is excellent, the views are amazing. Their chef puts some Asian flavor to the plates. We very much enjoyed our lunch here

Fantastic view and food is surprisingly good. We don’t expect too much on food in the tourist spot but the lamp-chop we ordered is so delicious. The portion is just right, not too much. Highly recommend after the visit to the Uchisar Castle:

Great place to dine in the midst of beautiful scenic beauty . The service and food are both of high quality . We ordered the hot hummus, Lamb chops and Seabass . All were rated as stars of this restaurant. The service colleague was very helpful in deciding on the dishes and very courteous.

Amazing close-up view of the castle and countryside. Food was fantastic and very generous, the plates were huge. We had the lamb cutlets and the fish - prices were very reasonable. Highly recommend!

Best food I've had in all of Turkey! We ordered the eggplant starter with yoghurt, mushroom soup, Asian marinated chicken, and Gozlama. All the dishes were out of this world! Our waiter was super friendly, helpful, and willing to explain each dish. It was a bit cold, so she offered blankets. The view was also nice. Highly recommend.

During our Cappacacia day tour they took us for lunch to this Turkish Han restaurant. It has huge parking and I guess it was built especially for tourist as they just kept arriving here non stop )) Just like in other tourist places they have buffet lunch and you just pay for the drinks. I liked this way of providing meals as it is easy and clear for both parties. Toilets are clean. Meals are delicious, options are not much available, but enough to be fed up. Overall, it was a good experience.

We had lunch here as a part of our tour, and the experience was fine. Their buffet lunch was of very good quality, and there were various dishes to try.

Food was average and above average. Sadly chicken got over soon. Views were awesome. Sweets were too many and awesome Most tours were coming here. Drinks were paid

It was a very pleasant experience. We're from a small country, Cape Verde, so we were looking for a family-run business that could provide some warmth during our trip. The food was very good, with fresh ingredients (chili peppers from the backyard), and the staff was attentive and friendly.

We were taken to this place for lunch during our tour of Cappadocia. The restaurant offers a buffet with quite a number of items. Loved their salad and dessert section. The main course items were just okay. The ambience is clean, bright with an ample amount of sunlight coming in. The toilets were clean too. Though it was crowded with tourists, we didn't have to be in a queue for long as the buffet area is big. One can order beverages ( alocoholi & non- alcoholic) too ( At an extra cost). The things this place can improve on are: The staff could have been a bit more courteous and welcoming. The items in the main course could have been better.

One of those places where the tour guides take their groups. Expensive for the quality of the food and not a lot of variety. Waiters are rude which is understandable as they have to deal with large tourists groups all day. I don't think locals would ever eat here.

A tour food stop. We stopped here for a late lunch as the other lunch restaurants couldn't accommodate our tour timing. This place certainly has variety. Food is constantly replenished and toilets were decently clean. As this place caters to tours, they do have enough place to fit large groups and still feel comfortable. Food quality wise was average.

Great find of a restaurant that is more locals than tourists, but not the annoying tourist :-). We really enjoyed it. Great view as well from a few of the seats.

Bole Et Mangal is a fantastic place for meat lovers! The quality of the meats is excellent and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. A nice bonus—they even have electric sockets, which is super convenient. My absolute favorite here is the kozde soğan sarımsak side dish—it pairs perfectly with the meats. We had 1kg Bolu Et Karışık, 250g Kuzu Kaburga, and another portion of Kuzu Kaburga. Everything was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. They also have complete facilities: clean toilets, a room to change a child’s diaper, separate male and female prayer rooms, and even an indoor children’s playground—making it a very family-friendly spot. To finish off, we had kaymaklı künefe, which was the perfect sweet ending to a delicious meal. Highly recommended!

The food was exceptional. They accommodated us even though we did not have a reservation, the prices are good too.

Super tasty kebabs, amazing ikram starters, welcoming staff! We absolutely loved this place!

As in most Turkish restaurants, once you come, they put an icy bottle of water on the table starting to open it. And as in most Turkish restaurants, they have no other drinks than icy sodas, coffee and tea. Don't take the "lemonade" - it's a powder. Chicken is good enough (2 photos) but nowhere mentioned that a portion is served with 7 plates of mezze. (So no need to take starters, mushrooms with cheese didn't taste fresh) That's horribly lots of wasted food that no table was able to finish! 2 of these mezze is spicy (not like Korean food but still burning), and I spent the next day in bed grunting from stomachache. Never in my life had such problems from food.

We love lamb!! This place make delicious lamb!! Chicken was also very tender. Especially recommend lamb leg. They gave a lot of free appetizers, not as good as their meat dishes but also good Highly recommend if you are in this area!

I really enjoyed the food when I ate here two years ago but the quality has declined since then. I had the mezes, yogurt, and Adana kebab, and none of them had much (good) flavor. Service is superb though.

The food was super tasty and fresh, and the staff were really friendly and spoke great English. The restaurant looks small from the outside but it’s actually very big inside, with plenty of seating. We got to sit on a cozy Turkish sofa-style area, which made the experience even better. Definitely worth checking out

Just a really chill place with really good food. Portions are huge and the servers don’t judge for ordering less and sharing. Comes with appetiser vegetables with bread. Really good also. Overall food is great and I wanna come back tomorrow to try the kebap!

Fantastic chicken shish kebabs and wings. The chicken and lamb chops were so tender and there’s a spicy sauce you can get to add. Everything we ordered was flavorful, highly recommend anyone who wants to have classic kebabs and decently priced.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What a wonderful experience! This restaurant is a true gem for anyone who loves authentic Turkish cuisine. Every dish was full of flavor — fresh, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with friendly staff who make you feel right at home. The highlight of the evening was definitely the live show — full of energy, , and fun! It really adds to the whole experience and makes it unforgettable. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy great food, a cozy vibe, this is absolutely the place to go. Highly recommended!

The service and staffs are nice , about the food: Testi kabab: the quality was good and it was delicious. The portion is also great. The bulgar comes with testi kabab however was super oily and not healthy. Kofte: the food had huge i mean huge oil and fried with lots of oils which i don’t like the taste and oil inside , so if you wanna healthy food this food is not the option. The white rice we order additional was also oily. The people act nice and friendly and respectful .

I came for a Donner kebab, ended up having the Tavuk sis kebab. It was fantastic. The meal was served with beautifully with side dishes. Staff are super nice and not push overs. Highly recommended if you fancy kebab meal.

Great food and service. I had the meat testi kebab and it tasted wonderful. The show when it came out was also really cool. Don't forget to have some turkish tea after you are finished with your meal!

Excellent place but too many people for the size of the place. We could not choose our seat location and unfortunately could not see much from the location we were seated. Aside from that it’s a great location and fun! The food is not great though

I had fun. The show was what it had to be, a simple (yet very skilled dancers), friendly for everyone to enjoy and understand, quite entertaining. You only got popcorn, peanuts and fruit slices so you better had a good lunch before going there. Since drinks are unlimited, service is sluggish. They really should have some staff around to prevempt the public interfering with the show, the guys that jumped into the scenario to put money in the belly dancer bra were disgusting, disrespectful for the dancer and everyone else there and should be stopped.

Dancers were great. The musicians, especially the guy in the drum ( sorry not sure of the proper name for it) was fabulous. The belly dancers was good but she just went in and on and on for too long... a bit boring by the end of it 😴 Food was average and service ok. Wine was terrible. Unfortunately the dancers had their backs to us all night so if you get a bad table the experience isn't the best.

The event was truly an immersion into top-tier entertainment. The atmosphere was both inviting and well-curated, making it a perfect backdrop for the stellar performances we witnessed. Every act was meticulously executed, showcasing talent and dedication. However, while the ambiance and entertainment were a hit, the culinary aspect was a bit of a letdown. Even though there wasn't any commitment to providing a full dinner, the expectation was at least a varied range of appetizers. But all we got were some basic fruits and nuts. Given that the show spanned two hours, it felt like a missed opportunity not to offer attendees a more diverse and satisfying selection of goodies.

Espectacular 👌Must visit...

We had an overall okay time. There were some points that were just weird. Instead of it being more Turkish dancing, at times it felt like a strip club with women dancing for tips in their bras. Overall wouldn’t recommend.

Good but bit expensive.

Delicious, authentic Adana kebabs! The meat was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. Great portions, fresh sides, and warm, friendly service. Muhittin Usta Adana Kebab Salonu is a must-visit if you’re in Nevşehir. Highly recommended!

This is the type of food you won’t find out about until you ask locals. Best Adana kabap I’ve had in turkey so far! John was very nice and gave us great service! It’s next to a gas station but it’s a huge restaurant and is very elegant! Service is great, and salad is super fresh!!! It’s all locals eating there so you know it’s gas!!

Our family of 10 was on a road trip from Istanbul to Cappadocia and stopped at this hidden gem of a restaurant on the way, based on our driver’s recommendation — and we’re so glad we did! From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the manager and staff, who made us feel right at home. The service was genuinely attentive and friendly, without ever feeling rushed. We were pleasantly surprised to receive a variety of complimentary starters at the beginning of our meal — a thoughtful touch that really set the tone for the rest of the dining experience. Every dish we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The portions were generous, and the quality of the food exceeded our expectations. Whether you're passing through or staying nearby, this spot is absolutely worth a visit. Great food, warm hospitality, and a cozy atmosphere — a perfect stopover to recharge during a long journey. Highly recommended!

🚨 Don’t come if you are a tourist Located adjacent to the petrol station, similar to a fast food joint. We were charged 600 TLR for an okay Adana kebap, and 450 TLR for an okay cheese pide. Sides are complementary but don’t really suit our tastes. Had much better food for that price point. Place was filled with locals, which I suspect had a different price point than we did. Cheese pide was the only vegetarian option.

Someone from a carpet shop recommended us this place for lunch and we have been very surprised for the quality, quantity and the good food. I really recommend this restaurant, the staff were also very friendly

Really nice place with delicious food. Thank you John for your nice service and good advice in choosing the menu.

Best food we have ever had, superb! I am definitely coming back and highly recommending to all my traveler friends 🤌🏼😍

Nice experience with a simple breakfast. Especially young student guests were impressive.

Great food, the breakfast was delicious and generous. The borek was a nice surprise as don’t often it for breakfast. The walnuts jam was unexpected, sweet, soft and crunchy. The highlight of the breakfast was the katmer. It was filled with pistachio and kaymak. We liked it so much we asked for extra.

A wonderful place we stumbled upon by chance while returning from Göreme. A wide variety of breakfasts—both Turkish and continental. I also really liked the fresh orange juice; I recommend it.

This is lovely place to have a great breakfast. Amazing staff reasonable prices and a variety of Turkish food. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this place if you are in Cappadocia 😊

Food is good , however it’s Turkish breakfast. Food portion is very big more than enough for two people . We didn’t get to finish it because we got full

It was a nice place to stop for a snack and break during a bus ride.

Breakfast has good taste. Van breakfast is really authentic. Just there’re too many flies and bugs around while dining. Kinda annoying.

The ambience is good. Music a bit annoying I realize it is a 5 star.restaurant but prices are still high for small portions of tender though mediocre meat with little to no acompanaments. The part that really got me angry is they charged 100 lira.almost $3 a glass for what apeared.to be tap water , which we never even asked for. Also, only place in Turkey I have gone to where they added a service charge without asking. Only reason we went there because it.was closest restaurant to our hotel.in a snow storm, and supposedly had good rating. I wouldnt reccomend it to anyone.

Food is great if you know what to get - atmosphere outstanding. Service is the worst for a 5 star place an embarrassing. Came 2 years ago and was great they also changed the chef. Come for drinks at the bar or light bites but not to be served. Note not accessible friendly no elevator.

Salad was terrible (frozen raspberries and strawberries) and it was way to expensive for what they delivered. Don’t recommend this place.

This restaurant is 100% deserving of 1 star - it was so terrible that it became enjoyable to experience how bad the meal was. We ordered a bottle of wine, asked about it multiple times, and it came 20 minutes later after appetizers (and we were the only people in the restaurant!). Half of the menu options we tried to order were unavailable. The food was tasteless; like it was multiple days old and reheated. We stopped halfway through and said cancel the rest of the order, we couldn’t eat any more of it. The wait staff was confrontational and demanded that we pay for the items we cancelled. Everything was very overpriced. AND the cherry on top of this awful dining experience, there were multiple cats in the dining room making loud meows and rubbing on our legs throughout the meal - this is after telling the wait staff that I am allergic to cats and asked if they could remove the cats from the dining room. This is by far the worst dining experience I have ever had. It’s impressive how bad it was.

(Translated by Google) The classy restaurant of our favorite boutique hotel. The service and environment are excellent. The flavors are on point. Both the starters and main courses were amazing. The disturbing factor in Cappadocia is that it is 4-6 times the price of wine. As a couple from Urla, this made us feel like fools. (Original) Sevdiğimiz butik otelin klas restoranı. Hizmet ve ortam mükemmel. Lezzetler yerli yerinde. Gerek başlangıçlar gerekse ana yemekler muhteşemdi. Kapadokya genelinde rahatsız eden unsur ise şarap fiyatlarının 4-6 katı. Urla’dan gelen bir çift olarak bu bizi salak yerine konulmuş gibi hissettirdi.

(Translated by Google) Having been to Cappadocia many times, this was my first stay at this hotel. The restaurant, room designs, and even the pool have been meticulously planned down to the smallest detail. (Original) Birçok kez kapadokyaya gelmiş biri olarak ilk kez konakladığım otel. İçerisindeki restaurant, otelin oda dizaynları olsun gerek havuzu en ince ayrıntıya kadar düşünülmüş.

(Translated by Google) The food was quite expensive and didn't meet my expectations in terms of taste. However, the atmosphere and the attentiveness of the staff were really nice. (Original) Yemekler oldukça pahalıydı, lezzet açısından beklentimi karşılamadı. Ancak mekanın atmosferi ve personelin ilgisi gerçekten güzeldi.

We tried Kuzu Nevşehir tava and it was very delicious we had it with roasted garlic side together with the other mezze and bread served all were tasty. However I found the price extremely high (one portion was around 850tl). The staff were friendly and the restaurant was well organized and clean.

The restaurant and its service are good, also the main dish was well cooked and delicious (especially the fresh bread). Only the location was a bit confusing, as the restaurant is located in the industrial area of the city, also the parking spots are limited in front of the place.

We made a mistake to try Testi Kebap and Nevsehir tava in Goreme and in touristic parts. We are glad to visit Tavaci Mustafa in Nevsehir city and this changed all our opinions about it. They prepared an amazing delicious meat casserole and served with mushrooms with melted cheese and as well garlic casserole which is like cream after its oven cooked. %100 recommended to try and avoid those expensive, non tasty restaurants in touristic spots. We will come back and recommend to all our friends and relatives. Thank you!

Located in a random area, but the food was so amazing. The service was exceptional they even helped us with parking. I would recommend the kebab that is cooked in the clay pot, we kept ordering more of it!

One of my favorite meals so far. Best bread I’ve had in Turkey, fresh homemade Ayran, their Nevsehir Tava which is much much better than any Testi kebab I’ve had, and a delish local dessert called Çigleme.

Perfect! Staffs served carefully for customers. Tava costs tr40~60, pide costs tr10~20. Delicious.

We arrived to Nevsehir around 20 and since most of the restaurants closed at 9 pm we chose the first of the list via maps. It was a great choice. Inside, no one spoke English, without saying anything we were brought a variety of meze and roast meat, and fresh ayran, all really good! We filled up with only 50TL in two! Awesome!

Food is not bad. The traditional turkey food is a new experience for me. This restaurant provides ALL-YOU-CAN-DIRNK. The show is VERY hot and spicy, however, the way of performers asked us for tip is uncomfortable. Music is VERY loud. If you like the nightclub, you may like the show.

AVOID IT AT ANY COSTS! I recently had dinner here with a group of 16 people, and unfortunately, it was one of the worst dining experiences we’ve ever had. The food was not just cold—it was actually frozen in parts. It didn’t look fresh at all, and we left concerned that we might end up with food poisoning. The service was poor from start to finish, with little attention to our group’s needs. On top of that, the music was so loud that we couldn’t hold a proper conversation. Nothing about the atmosphere or the food felt authentic, and the entire evening was deeply disappointing. I would strongly advise others to look elsewhere for a quality meal and pleasant dining experience.

The dancers were excellent and a lot of fun. They involved the audience and made it extremely enjoyable. Many times I could not stop laughing.

Vibrant atmosphere, quality service, tasty food - a great Turkish Night With the help of Epona Travel, we attended a Turkish Night Show to gain insight into the Turkish culture. The setting of Yemeni Restaurant is a cave, dug into a typical Cappadocian rock, which makes it a genuine space for what follows: traditional Anatolian dances and rituals, performed by professional artists, dressed accordingly to the piece they play, visual shows and delicious Turkish dishes (testi kebab and meze). The staff was very attentive and polite. Everything was clean and neat, and Mr. Ramadan made sure the guests felt more than comfortable, passing by each table and taking care of everyone. It was a vibrant and enjoyable atmosphere, so we didn't feel how the time passed by, A must-try experience!

We came here as a group of 17 and it was, hands down, the worst restaurant experience I’ve ever had. The wait was absurdly long, and when food finally appeared, most of it was stone-cold and utterly inedible. The staff couldn’t keep track of orders — we were asked multiple times what we had ordered, as if no one in the kitchen or on the floor had a clue. In the end, nearly everyone in our group left their plates untouched. This place is a masterclass in how not to run a restaurant. Save your time, your money, and your appetite — go literally anywhere else.

Enjoyable place that offers amazing native dances, exquisite food and very attentive service

I am not sure why this place has got so many good reviews. The atmosphere of the place is good but food is pathetic. I have never experienced this kind of tasteless food in Turkey anywhere. Service is still fine but prices are way too high for the taste and portion they are providing. 800 Lira per item is way too high and I expected a good portion but it is as small as we can imagine. Anyways skip this restaurant if you can. But these guys are tied to the tour guides and they take you to this restaurant without any option if you have booked any day tours with lunch in cappodocia.

Small airport clean, but food is crazy. Small bottle of water normally 5-10 lira here 130lira. That's up 23x times more expensive than some in cappadocia. A premade days old sandwich (18Euro)800 lira. That's a disgrace. Genuinely don't know how this is allowed. Do what the locals do pack some food or get something after your short flights as this is not really an international airport

Good airport. About an hour drive from Goreme,Cappadocia. As far as I have seen, very few flights from the airport which makes the security and check in process much quicker. Airport security and staff is friendly as well. There's one small restaurant which has pretty basic options for a quick snack, even though it felt slightly expensive. Washrooms are nice and well maintained.

This is a very small airport, located about an hour’s drive from Göreme town. You can arrange local shuttle transfers to get here. Since the airport has very few flights, only about 3–4 per hour, the security check and check-in process are very quick, with almost no queues. I arrived 1.5 hours before my flight and found the time more than sufficient.

Small but organized, smooth immigration and baggage check. Well maintained and very clean. The only drawback is the pricy cafe after the immigration, so expensive and highly disproportional to cost of living in Cappadocia.

This is a small airport serving the city of Kayseri, and it's an entry point for those who want to visit Cappadocia. The experience of check-in and security clearance was smooth. There is only one cafe in the transit area, and expect it to be pricier than the city.

One small retail shop and one coffee shop, both completely empty because they charge $7.50 for a soft drink. A microwave hamburger in cling film was available for $23 and a chocolate muffin for $13. As with all Turkish airports, and many in the Middle East, you must take all your electronics out at the airport entrance for the scanner, and then again around 40 metres away when you go through security.

Lovely new and clean airport. Espresso cafe is the only place to get a refreshment or snack. No airport lounge. BEWARE the prices - 795 Lira ($20 usd) for a small Americano and iced latte - this is an outrageous rip off! A Dubai cookie is $20 usd 😡🤣. Do better Kayseri airport!
