Doa Restaurant: A Taste of Nature
Its name, Doa — meaning “nature” — reflects everything we believe in: authenticity, balance, and simplicity.
Nestled among palm trees and gentle sea breeze, Doa Restaurant is the heart of Layla Göcek — a space where food, nature, and connection come together effortlessly.
Inspired by the Land and the Sea
Each dish begins with what the Mediterranean offers that day — freshly caught fish from the nearby harbor, herbs from our garden, seasonal vegetables from local farms. Every plate carries the warmth of the region, crafted with care and a deep respect for natural flavors. We don’t chase trends — we honor tradition. That’s why our recipes celebrate the essence of Turkish and Aegean cuisine, reimagined with a modern, mindful touch.
From Morning Light to Golden Hour
Doa is open from sunrise until late evening, flowing with the rhythm of the day. Start with a slow breakfast on the terrace — homemade jams, warm bread, olives, and fresh juice under the morning sun. As evening falls, the space transforms into a candlelit haven where dinners feel like small celebrations — filled with laughter, music, and the scent of rosemary in the air.
Sustainability on Every Plate
We work closely with local growers and fishermen who share our respect for the land and sea. Ingredients are sourced thoughtfully, with minimal waste and maximum flavor. It’s food with purpose — created not just to please the palate, but to nourish the body and soul. There’s no better way to end a day at the coast than with music, firelight, and community. We hope to see you at the shore.
A Place to Gather
At Doa, every meal is a story — of friendship, of culture, of the Mediterranean way of life.It’s where travelers meet locals, where long conversations stretch past sunset, and where time feels suspended between courses.
Here, dining is not an event — it’s a feeling. A slow rhythm of life that invites you to pause, savor, and simply be. Welcome to Doa Restaurant — where nature sets the table.
