TL;DR
Overall the food is decent — plenty of fresh fruit, meat, chicken, fish, and even sushi on Tuesdays — but expect grill queues, occasional plate shortages, rare salmon, mediocre watermelons, and sour cocktails.
Breakfast includes achma, a baked cheese pastry. One dinner featured juicy grilled sea bass; overall, the food quality appears to have remained good compared with a stay at the same hotel three years earlier.
The on-site fast food received a negative review: it was considered dry, overly salty, and paired with unappealing sauces, and no fresh-squeezed juice was found. Coffee was acceptable, while milkshakes and Cornetto ice-cream cones were rated good.
Fruit choices include watermelon, melon, oranges, apples, plums, pears, and apricots. The coffee shop was rated highly, but ice cream may run out by 9:30 pm despite the culinary counter being advertised until 11 pm; ayran may need to be requested specifically.
More substantial menu options included grilled turkey, lula kebab, lahmacun, shawarma, stuffed eggplant, and beef cheeks.
Watermelon was not available at breakfast, and arugula frequently ran out; cherry tomatoes were consistently available according to this report.
Stayed in early July — no complaints about the food: fried red fish (salmon/trout) was served every evening, cherries were available 6 out of 10 days, strawberries appeared once and were very sweet, cherry tomatoes were also sweet and tasty. Plenty of free sunbeds, especially on the left pier.
The restaurant gets crowded — expect to wait around 10 minutes for a table; there are more seats outside but it's hot there. Watermelons were not great, meat options include stewed and grilled dishes, chicken kebab was served one day. Salmon wasn't seen for several days.
Wide selection: always fresh fruit, lots of stewed vegetables, plenty of desserts. Fish, chicken, and lamb are served regularly, and on Tuesdays dinner even includes crayfish and sushi. Ice cream is tasty. Almost all cocktails are sour.
Food quality rated excellent: abundant fruit (nectarines, peaches, watermelon, cherries), fish, chicken, meat patties, and plenty of desserts. Downsides: occasional queues for grilled chicken and fish, and a couple of times clean plates ran out and guests had to wait.
