We have been staying in the area for nine days and we keep going back to this beautiful restaurant. Such a friendly welcome from the two guys always a smile and little chat. The food is excellent fantastic size portions and the service is perfect. Topped off with great wine.

Really nice experience here. Slightly less busy than some of the other neighbouring tavernas (for some reason) but don’t be put off by that as the food, service and view are all really great. Get there early to get a front row table (before 7.30pm) and be right next to the sea with great views.

Some of the best lamb shanks I have ever had in my life. Still thinking about it a week after. I hope we get to come back one day and try it again. Incredible.

We have been staying in the area for two weeks and we keep going back to this beautiful restaurant. Such a friendly welcome from the two guys always a smile and little chat. The food is excellent fantastic size portions and the service is perfect. Topped off with great wine and the little treat of apple and cinnamon they give you at the end. Very competitively priced.

One of the best restaurant of the Island. I had a lovely evening with my family, the waiters were very friendly with us and the food is absolutely delicious. Special warding to the moussaka.
