Otantik Ocakbaşı
A Michelin Bib Gourmand charcoal grill in central Bodrum, known for an affordable and authentic signature mixed grill.
Located on Atatürk Avenue in the city center, the restaurant has charcoal grills and wood-fired ovens visible as soon as you walk in, and a cozy terrace in the back alley. Michelin lists it as a Bib Gourmand, and it is considered a benchmark for charcoal grills on the peninsula, with skilled control of open flame. The signature mixed grill comes with freshly grilled bread and sumac. The menu also includes a range of kebabs and dry-aged steak. Prices are affordable, and it is open year-round. Phone ahead for reservations in the evening, when it gets busy. It is about a 10-minute walk from the harbor.
