A
Zenger Paşa Konağı
Built in 1721 for governor Mehmet Fuat Paşa, the Zenger Paşa was the first restaurant of its kind in Ankara, restored and masterminded by a TV executive with a keen eye for the tourist market. Meals are still cooked in the original oven, and the whole place is crammed with Ottoman ephemera. There's live music every evening to complement the perfect citadel views.

B
Kale Washington
Spliced together from two 17th-century houses, the Washington is a favourite with visiting dignitaries (Hillary Clinton reportedly ate here once) and other aspirational types, who come to chow down on Turkish-international food. Staff sometimes give as much attitude as they get, but as long as you're not a complete scruffbag it's not over-snobby.

C
Boyacızâde Konağı
Not far from the museum, the Boyacızâde is another wonderfully converted mansion-restaurant with great views, typical Ottoman-stalgic décor and a good line in fish dishes. Turkish classical, or fasıl, music provides the entertainment.

Hatipoğlu Konağı
The touristy set menus here are good value, but watch those steps if you go for the unlimited-alcohol option! Acoustic groups play here every day except Sunday. To find it, come out of the citadel through the Parmak Kapısı and turn left.
