Address Restaurant & Brasserie
If you decide to head out towards Karaoğlanoğlu, this is the restaurant to look out for, situated on the main road west. It's considered one of Northern Cyprus' best and is situated on a little point overlooking the sea. The menu is European-based and includes mostly fish, pasta and meat. The orange and tarragon chicken is a good dish to try.

Altınkaya I
Named after the nearby beach, this place is further west on the way to Lapta (Lapithos), around 10km west of town. The food is great value, with good meze and fresh fish main courses.
-
Anı
A lovely and affordable fish tavern, with fresh home-grown vegetables, and tasty meze. It is about 2.5km further east of Erol's. Many consider it the best fish restaurant in Cyprus.

Brasserie
A classy restaurant in an old colonial building, with a matching interior: a smoking room with dark wood-panelled walls, Hellenic statues, and a lot of warm brandy swigging. If you like good Italian food, this is the place for you, since it's run by an Italian. The menu has dishes like risotto al tartufo (risotto with truffles) and penne alla vodka (pasta with vodka; always gets the punters in), as well as meaty delicacies.

Erol's Bar & Restaurant
One of two good restaurants to the east, on the way to Bellapais (the other is Anı). Renowned for its good quality meat and meze, Erol's also serves homemade soup, garnish and pickles, and some good fish dishes. There are great views over the village of Ozanköy. Wednesdays is kleftiko night.

Five Mile Restaurant
A modernist cube of a building with a wooden deck terrace and tables just above the sea, each lit by a hanging iron candle lamp. There is an outside bar with a lounge area, and inside are circular leather sofas for winter drinking. The menu encompasses just about everything: fresh fish and seafood, grilled tarragon chicken, Peking duck, noodles and pasta. The bar and club here are popular with nightbirds.

Idris ustanın yeri
A workers' eatery, with chicken, lamb, doner and shish kebabs, with massive salads and pickles on the side. Delicious, simple, and highly recommended.

Niazi's Restaurant & Bar
This place is renowned among kebab munchers, but its reputation seems to have compromised its quality. The jolly waiters will 'jokingly' bring you a large beer even if you've asked for a small one, then seriously charge you for it. The kebabs are plentiful, but the meat is pretty dry and uneventful. Niazi's is very popular with the locals, who flock here in their dozens, so booking is a good idea.

Padişah
Run by a London-Cypriot returnee, this place is all about traditional food like kleftiko (oven-baked lamb) and meze. The décor is simple and stylish, and there is a nice garden for alfresco eating. It's in a nook, opposite the Colonial Hotel and the petrol station.

Set Fish Restaurant
Fish, sweet fish. Straight from the sea, and onto your plate, and all while you're watching the boats bobbing in the harbour. This is the one exception among the harbour restaurants. The atmosphere is good, the fish delicious, and a frosty bottle of white wine will make the evening perfect. There's even lobster, in season.
