Author Topic: Best Fillet Steak in Town? (Read 7892 times)

This time tomorrow we'll be on our way and I just wondered where you would recommend for the best fillet steak in town? My partner absolutely loves fillet and although everywhere seems to serve good food, if there's somewhere that's special for steaks, I'd like to choose that one. I've read about the Mediteran, Alternatif but any recommendations for steak specifically would be appreciated! Thank you!!!

Just arrived in Kalkan today (for 6 days), and my thought entirely at the moment as well, is where to go tonight for a great fillet steak. Getting hungrey !!!!!

So my recommendations, in no particular order, are:
Kaya
Trio (with fig & red wine saurce)
Auberguine

We have been told the Alternatif is excellent but not yet tried it !

I'm not a steak expert but Fiona (who lived Paris for several years, so should know) says that the steaks at Kaya are the best she has ever tasted.

I can definitely vouch for the fish there, too (the Grouper is to die for). And of course there is the magic atmosphere. We will almost certainly be there on our first full night (Friday - can't wait)!

Can recommend the Nar for the fillet steak, had one in there a couple of weeks ago and it melted in the mouth - delicious!

My recommendations for fillet steak, in no particular order, Doy Doy, Aubergine and Mussaka - all superb!

Mrs A and OJ thought KAYA was the best - last week. I thought they were the size of half a cow! The "special" KAYA Steak fillets - one of their signature dishes - comes with little pots of sauce on the side, so you can really taste the steak for what it's worth.

Enjoy - and make sure you share a fresh, sizzling plate of calamari to start, which are, without doubt, the best we had ever tasted; they slice their own.

cheers

That's decided it, Kaya it is - calamari is my all time favourite and half a cow is quite big enough for Chris!

I know it's a whopper and boy did it taste good

It looks as though Chris will enjoy the culinary delights of several restaurants trying to judge for himself which is the best steak in town - Kaya, Nar, Zula, Mussaka, Trio, Doy Doy, Meldi Hotel or Aubergine. Hell that's only enough for 8 nights dining.....what to eat for the other two nights

Mediteran with the sunset. Adams for the ambience. Job done.

Next?!!

(I am so envious and I've only been back a day - and can't get my suit trousers to do up, so thinking of wearing my 35" waist shorts from the Market!)

But BB!

I haven't changed my weight - I've just moved it all around!

I've now got thin legs - from that hill and all the swimming - and then I just get wider as I go up!

cheers

I have always enjoyed Atlantis steak, the one with prawns in the scrummy sauce

Me too - I've always maintained they do the best steaks. Love the pepper sauce.

We went to Alternatif and had the most wonderful fillet steak that I have ever tasted. It was served with a cream fig sauce veg and chips.

Think it only cost about 25 TL approx Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£10.40. We chatted to the owner and asked him to tell the chef how much we enjoyed the steak. He jokingly replied "better not or he'll want more money!!"

I think it was my favourite meal of the whole two weeks we were there.
