Expect soulful plates and sunset vistas in equal measure.
Saudi Arabia’s development boom shows no signs of slowing, and NEOM is at the heart of the action. The futuristic city is fast becoming a hotspot for exciting new openings, and the latest name to know is Akdeniz Turkish Cuisine.
Located at the Royal Lazure Resort, Akdeniz offers a fresh and relaxed take on Turkish dining on NEOM’s serene shores.

On the menu, traditional Turkish flavours take centre stage, elevated with a modern twist. Locally sourced ingredients and time-honoured techniques shine through in dishes like handmade manti, vibrant meze platters, and indulgent baklava.
With NEOM’s dining scene heating up — from Rumbaza to The Forensic, Moksha, Sublimotion, Marisara, and beyond — Akdeniz Turkish Cuisine is a standout addition.
So, if you love Turkish food or are just looking for a good and wholesome meal, Akdeniz Turkish Cuisine is where you ought to be. With stunning vistas and authentic flavours, it’s poised to become a favourite spot in Neom.
Saudi Arabian megaprojects don’t get more sci-fi than Neom. The name itself is a combination of the Greek words for new and the Arabic word for future. Neom will be the size of Belgium and sit north of the Red Sea coastline. Projects include Oxagan and The Line. Oxagon aims to be the world’s largest floating industrial complex, while The Line aims to be a 170-kilometre-long residential complex with zero cars, streets, and carbon emissions.
