It's located right by the sea and has a great view of the Aegean Sea, nice breeze, cool air. Don't forget to order the "ayran" (yogurt drink" with it. They also bring some pickels at the table.

I still remember the first shop and sadly the first place no longer exists and now they are all over the town. If you are in Cesme, I would definitely recommend to try one of the famous "kumrus". It can be catered for vegetarians as well as they also serve them with cheese only. You can also now order baked potatoes, hamburgers, and other meals as well.

The quality was admittedly higher and the food tasted a lot better when they served only in one location. They used to be the go to place, at this point nostalgia is what keeps us going. I'd recommend that you taste theirs but still try others. You just might find an underdog that is what Sevki was years ago. And for kumpir - stuffed baked potatoes, find somewhere else. They undersell so the mezes they use stay out a lot longer.
