Cihan Ocakbaşı
A charcoal grill on the road to İçmeler, loved by tourists and locals alike, with prices reasonable for the area.
Located on the road from Siteler toward İçmeler, the restaurant is served by frequent dolmuş minibuses, so it's easy to reach. It specializes in grills cooked over an open hearth, including Adana kebab, Urfa kebab, chicken and lamb skewers, small skewered meat (şiş) and various clay-pot dishes. The travel blog Chasing the Donkey says it is the only place in town to get authentic Manisa kebab. Künefe, a shredded-pastry cheese dessert, is recommended after the meal. Raki and local beer are served, and value for money is good. It gets busy in the evening during peak season.
