Ali Rıza'nın Yeri
Gümüşlük
The first table on the Gümüşlük iskele since 1962, still run by the family
The Yalıçiftlik fisherman's room — tables set directly in the shallows, the day's fish off the boat, the family Mustafa Bey runs to a fifteen-cover register.
Deli Ağa runs from the strand at 3754 Sokak in Yalıçiftlik and the room is the Çiftlik shorthand for the older-peninsula register: a dozen tables on a stone deck, half of them set in twenty centimetres of shallows, the kitchen run by Mustafa Bey and the family on a small cover that opens at one in the afternoon and closes at ten in the evening. The card is short — meze tray off the cold counter, the day's fish (orfoz, sinarit, çipura, levrek) on a wood grill, kalamar, ahtapot, a rakı pour and a small wine list. The room is the one the peninsula's older guests bring out-of-town family to when they want to demonstrate that Bodrum still has the village fish dinner that does not require a marina reservation. Reservation pressure is moderate by Yalıçiftlik standards; the small cover means a phone call the day before holds the front table.
Tables set in the shallows — wear what you can roll up. Mustafa Bey runs the room to fifteen covers; ring the day before for the front row. Order off the day board, do not ask for the printed menu.
