TL;DR

Travelers recommend a la carte restaurants with a generous mezze selection and excellent fresh fish soup; families with kids should look for places that also serve sushi/rolls alongside Turkish seafood dishes.

What the community said

Near the bus station, there is a market by a large döner shop; further inside, vendors sell fresh fish and grill it to order. It is a simple, tasty option for a fish meal.

In general discussions about favorite spots in Bodrum, there's no single agreed-upon best restaurant — recommendations vary by area: the marina/harbor, Bodrum center, Gümbet, and Yalıkavak all have different options from casual street food to seaside dining.

One a la carte style restaurant gets strong reviews: a wide variety of appetizers, very tasty fish soup, and good fish dishes overall — worth trying.

A la carte restaurant (seafood)

For travelers with kids, look for a fish restaurant that also has sushi and rolls on the menu — this makes it easier to please the whole family, especially if children are picky about regular seafood dishes.
