The restaurant takes its name from the historic tunnel that figures in Bilecik's built landscape and carries a sense of local character into its menu and atmosphere. The kitchen focuses on well-sourced beef cuts prepared over charcoal, alongside mixed grill platters and a classic döner that draws an appreciative lunchtime crowd.

Döner is available both as a plated dish and in bread, reflecting the restaurant's flexibility between sit-down meals and quicker orders. The dining room occupies a mid-size space decorated in a straightforward contemporary style; seating is comfortable and arranged for groups as well as couples and solo diners. Service is efficient without being rushed. Prices run 200–500 TRY per person, placing Tünel at the upper end of Bilecik's everyday dining range, and reflecting the cost of quality beef and a slightly more formal setting than a standard lokanta. No alcohol is listed; Turkish tea, ayran, and soft drinks accompany the meal. The restaurant is open daily from noon, making it accessible for both lunch and dinner. For dinner on weekends, a brief reservation is advisable, particularly for parties larger than four.
