Aslan Restaurant

Amazing atmosphere and setting right on the river, eating lunch while sitting down on pillows and soaking your feet in the river. Could have not imagined a better place for lunch while doing a green tour. Trout was delicious but the portions could have been better. Prices are not cheap but touristy.

I’m super perplexed by the bad reviews… maybe it’s not a great experience when you are on a tour, but I had a great lunch! The bread was warm, the spicy paste and salad — delicious. Nice fish, çay, and baklava. The view is pleasant and the waiter super friendly! Awesome stop and looks like the best option among many.

We've been here last 3 weeks during our Green Tour with Mr Yunus Ugur.
We've ordered the fish, mushroom cheese and 1 beef cuisine i dont remember the name suggested by Mr Ibrahim, one the best staff here.

All 4 of us are very satisfied with all the dishes n services, Alhamdulillah. One of the best place we ate during our trip in Cappadocia.

Salam from Malaysia

Good food and service. The view is amazing. Great ambiance. Worth the stop.

Very nice place, food is delicious, family friendly, reasonable price, our host Mr. Mustafa was very kind and patient with our order.

You should be willing to share your food with the bees 🐝😁

What a beautiful place to stop for a bite to eat. Food was delicious. Service was topnotch. Wish we had something like this back home in the US.

Amazing service, Great Food and awesome atmosphere. Locally owned and very knowledgeable with the area. Other restaurants tried to lewer you in with free parking at the entrance. These guys are located towards the back end of the valley. Highly recommend!!

The food was amazing! I really recommend the fish (the trout is super fresh, oven cooked in a special casserole). They provided complimentary tea and appetizers. We also got the vegetable salad, oven cooked mushrooms with cheese, the čacık. Everything was so tasty. It exceeded our expectations by far! Advice: go here after lunch, maybe after 2PM, so you’ll have the place almost to yourself. Otherwise there might be tours and the place overly crowded. Also, I don’t get it why this place is so underrated… we loved it!

We enjoyed our time in Aslan restaurant, Ibrahim was very friendly and welcoming. Thank you for your service

The food was nice, you can get a food at reasonable price, you can use the washroom provided. The dining place has a selection either indoor or outdoor which ismsituated beside of the nice river. The internet coverage was poor in this place due to the geographic. They has a choice for vegetarian. I recommend this restaurant for a tourist.

Very good restaurant. The waiter was so nice and smiling. The place was very traditional but with an amazing food.
All was homemade.
I recommend it!!

One of the coolest things we did. Such an interesting stop. Make sure to check out the monastery carved into the rock on the way out.

Most flavorful meal we’ve had in Turkey. The perfect place to end our hiking day in the Ihlara Valley. Fresh baked bread, meat served in a hot stone dish, rice, köfte in hot stone dish, salad, chicken in hot stone dish. You can’t go wrong. You’ll be glad you ate here.

Perfect service. Friendly staff. They waited for us till late while we were discovering valley. Trout was delicious and other meals also.

Beautiful spot too enjoy a bread and meal along the river. The food was delicious, soup, beans and bread. Service good and help if you need. Thank you

Nice place, good experience, hospitable staff

Lovely location. Authentic Turkish cuisine at a great price. Food served on hot stone plates straight from the oven. Delicious

I recommend this place and there are many restaurants in the same river
