Unfortunately me and my friend had food poisoning. I had it very bad with bellyache and you can imagine the rest. I am on the second day and I still experience pain. In terms of taste - the food was ok, nothing special. Wouldn't visit again anyway for the cuisine (the salad was too sweet, the pasta had too much sage - all you could taste was sage actually - the meat was not tender and the prawn risotto had whipped cream) and obviously for the food poisoning. The main dishes were too late. If you disregard the incident, it is kind of pricy for what it offers.

Me and my husband had visited this place years ago, and we were happy to come back. August 2021: The place was not what it used to be, they had changed basically into only fish menu and stiff prices. We ordered the food of the day, without knowing the prices. 10.50€ for a small fancy plate of pasta with sauce and 3 small meatballs. This is supposed to be a main dish for an adult, not a child. The salad was called 'Greek salad with ... (something from the sea)'. This was not a greek salad. And they charged 6.50€. The "feta cheese" tasted like white cheese (looks similar, cost half the money in the supermarket). We only had a side dish of plain french fries, which costed us 4€. We ordered only the salad, fresh fries, and 2 main dishes. All greek taverns automatically bring you bread and water bottle without you asking. We asked to not be served bread, but the waitress said they would bring it either way (not yet served on our table). We paid 34.50€, and we both left the table hungry. Very overpriced place, and the smallest portions I have ever seen in a Greek tavern. This is not a gourmet restaurant. They did offer a sweet complimentary dish (Greek tradition) of 2 tiny pieces of water melon (1 for each). At least they gave us a valid receipt, so we know they pay taxes from the money we spent there. I will not come back. It is absolutely not worth it.

August '21. Greek guy here.. Overpriced food. TINY portions. A laughable situation. Here, you will be served the smallest Greek salad you could possibly find in Greece, with the tinyest amount of Feta cheese (if it had been real Feta, it didn't tasted like so), complimented by vinegar and stuff that normally don't make a Greek salad. There was -barely- 1 tomato in there. Supposedly "Gourmet" food. We got charged 2 euros for 4 slices of grilled bread with olive oil, accompanied by olives. What is that? I'd rather get more bread instead of 8 olives, for 2 euros. We were 2 people, the bread was not enough. The "portion" of plain French fries we asked for, costs 4 euros and comes directly out of a kid's menu.Tiny portion, served in a huge plate, no oregano.. This is cheap ,fried POTATOES we're talking about, for God's sake. Disappointed.. The main dishes we got (Dish of the Day) were Soutzoukakia with Pasta (meatballs in tomato sauce/some kind of spice and herbs). They would have been great IF the portions were not coming out of a kid's menu, again.. Tasty food, but ridiculously little, served in a huge plate, and costing 10,5 Euros per portion (What!). The place has a nice view, and was ok clean, but it's not some really fancy and expensive gourmet place. It's an overpriced-for-what-you-get, seasonal tavern, that will close down after September ends, only to re-open when next Summer season starts. We paid with visa/credit card, and we were issued a receipt (a rare find in Greek taverns). We were also served a complimentary fruit (just 2 pieces of watermelon) in the end of our meal. To sum up, we got 2 main dishes (Soutzoukakia with Pasta), a Greek salad, and "supposedly" a plate of French fries. (1 bottled Water and the bread was brought without asking us), and got charged 35 euros for it. We left the tavern, being still hungry.. Unacceptable.. Overpriced.

Tasteless and boring food at a high price. Better food is easy to find at other taverns in the village.

My husband and I had a wonderful dinner here a few nights ago. We LOVED the mussels and enjoyed the slow cooked octopus and pappardelle. Everything was delicious, and moreover, the service was fantastic. They were quick, obliging and very friendly. Three thumbs up!

A very good fish (that's what we had) restaurant, not a taverna. Our third visit in seven days. Beautiful fresh fish, grilled to perfection, a remarkable king crab salad, and marinated sprats. Previously the slow cooked octopus and deep fried calamari, shrimp special and fish fillet on stefado onions a surprisingly successful combination. It would be difficult to find better fish in the area. Drink the house rosé, rich flavour, not too dry. Excellent with seafood. The meats look great and we are going back to try them later. Some have complained about portion sizes, they know not of which they write. One portion will serve two without over facing or filling. The art is to select two of the wide choice of starter and follow with a main. Staff always attentive and welcoming. You can watch the sunset from the front, but booking is recommended.

Excellent food and service! We tried so many delicious options! The beef is fantastic, the pasta is homemade and the appetizers are so satisfying. The waiter was very friendly. We did make a reservation in advance and I suggest doing so to ensure a beautiful table close to the view of the water! We will be back.
