The stuffed mussels were very clean and delicious. I think it might be the best stuffed mussels in Ankara in terms of cleanliness. However, for it to be the best in terms of taste, the spice balance needs to be adjusted. Unfortunately, the spices aren't very noticeable.

The mussels were quite standard and clean. I found the seasoning a bit lacking. I ate 5 of them; they were good before kokorec (a Turkish dish). The price per mussel was 15 TL.
