Castle Cafe & Restaurant — Restaurant in Muratpaşa

Lush beautiful views of the sea! We went to this restaurant for lunch on a sunny evening and loved the shaded seating and wonderful service.

The owner is absolutely wonderful! Very engaging and kind.

We ordered the mixed plate of appetisers , it was delicious and very generous. The hummus was the best of the lot!

For mains we ordered the spaghetti creamy with shrimp, it lacked a bit of flavour but was very well cooked and fresh.

The grilled salmon on the other hand was overcooked and quite small, and took quite a while to come.

They have few vegetarian options as well, we we tried the vegetable casserole which was doused in cheese !! It’s quite heavy but a Turkish classic and worth a try.

The Chicken Fajitas light and simple to eat, served with a generous portion of fries which were warm and crisp

We ended the meal with some espresso and tiramisu, which was also very decadent.

The prices are average for the area and decent.

I would strongly advise against visiting this restaurant. While the view of the sea is lovely, it's the only positive aspect of what was a truly terrible dining experience. The service was some of the worst I have ever encountered. The staff seemed to have no training in hospitality; they were unwelcoming, rude, and treated customers with a complete lack of respect.

We experienced several issues: • A waiter hit three people at our table while closing an umbrella and didn't even bother to apologize.

• They brought only one plate for our group of three and refused to provide more when we asked. We also had to ask for enough forks for everyone.

• The prices displayed on the promotional sign outside are not the same as the higher prices in the menu, which feels like a classic bait-and-switch.

Save your money and go elsewhere. The beautiful view is not worth the awful service and...

We were on vacation in Antalya in June and visited this restaurant a couple of times. We were served by the waiter with white hair and moustache. I want to thank him for his service. The Holy Scriptures say, “There is benefit in every kind of hard work” (Proverbs 14:23). And the waiter did his job very diligently and professionally. He speaks English. We could freely ask him for something. Although we spoke in a language that was not native to both of us (English) he patiently tried to accurately understand our wishes and requests. He answered all our questions and explained us everything we needed to know about a food from the menu. If I will be in Antalya again I think I will come to this restaurant and will definitely recommend it...
