Behzat Oran

About Behzat Oran

Behzat Oran is a large meat, fish and grill restaurant in Oran, run by the Bekiş Grup, which also operates Behzat Çayyolu. On Instagram it calls itself an ocakbaşı meyhane, and its own website sums up the menu as "et, balık, mangal": meat, fish and charcoal grill. The day starts with a serpme köy kahvaltısı, a village-style spread breakfast served every day of the week, and there are set lunch menus at midday. In the evening the focus shifts to meze and rakı. A food blogger who visited in 2019 counted 40 to 60 seasonal meze, some of them seafood, and praised the shrimp in butter and the liver among the hot starters. The kitchen is an open space in the middle of the restaurant; bread and pastries come from a stone oven, and the menu covers the full range of kebabs including testi kebabı, alongside Adana kebab, mixed grills and a fish counter with seasonal fish and shellfish. Desserts include house baklava with walnuts and semolina halva with ice cream. Some tables have their own grills where you can cook the meat you choose yourself, and fixed menus with meze, hot starters and a main course are offered for those who prefer a set bill. The restaurant has a garden for summer evenings, and its Instagram profile advertises live music from Monday to Saturday. Reservations are taken on +90 546 263 32 77.
