In 1955, the elder son of Hacigokmens, Ahmet Gokgul, laid the foundations of Ravza by starting a small restaurant serving merchants. This restaurant operated at several locations in Alanya until 1980.

In 1980 the name of the restaurant became Ravza Lahmacun ve Pide Salonu and the menu served has changed. The main items on the menu became lahmacun, which is a special Turkish fast-food with spicy meat on thin round bread, and varieties of pide, which is the traditional Turkish pizza served with different toppings. By then, it was a 12 m2 shop with only three tables to serve. Today, Ravza is a 280 m2, 3 floor restaurant with a serving capacity of 250 people.

The people of Alanya knew nothing about lahmacun and pide, since these were not the local dishes of this region. It took us 3 years to introduce this different taste by giving free samples in the streets and on puplic transportion vehicles.

Our secand branch started operating in 1993 on Hayate Hanim St, offering additional varieties from the delicious Turkish kitchen. After the death of our father, the founder of Ravza, in 1992, we, his four sons, took charge of the business.

Today, we also serve doner, grills, and other Turkish specials on the menu in addition to lahmacun and pide.
