My favourite restaurants are The Lighthouse and Chef, great food, great staff and great value for money - you've got to try the fried ice-cream at The Lighthouse....oooooohhhh delicious!
The Wayside is also on the list of favourites, and Captain Sinbads up in the village has been recommended by a friend so will definitely try there on my next visit (I think if you eat an evening meal there you get a free full English brekkie the next day)
I like to go to the Erdem Cafe down on the beach for lunch - lots of shade and "cheap as chips".
The Cafe Del Mar is lovely - quiet, with beautiful views over
Icmeler Bay, and you walk off your dinner getting there!
The Magic Garden (behind the Lighthouse) is also very nice - small and quiet, but just like sitting in someone's garden - they serve Efes in iced glasses too.... yummmm!
Other favourite drinking places: Sport Bar, Friends, Venice, Dreamboys and Majestic (but the music's got a bit weird there!)
But that's just a few - how many hundreds more are there
It's worth trying the Cinar Restaurant, which is about 20 minutes drive outside of Marmaris. Fabulous food, beautiful setting - popular with Turkish, but gets packed in high season. Can't remember the name of the village it's in - but ask anyone, it's well known.
