“ Small Greek Restaurant on the outskirts of Old Town, as soon as we arrived, the waitress was very welcoming. The food was really good. We had the rice in vine leaves, absolutely good, a portion of Halloumi, good as well, and fried calamari, really really good, tasty and tender while crunchy outside. My only regret is not trying the Moussaka. That looked delicious, but we were full already. You should definitely go eat there before entering old town ”
“ We came here as it was near a restaurant we thought to go.."la terrazza" just nearby. But the other restaurant was dark and unappealing. So we go here. The service was fast. It would have helped to have some fan, in the restaurant, to ease the very hot temperature. The food was good but a tad expensive the pasta with vongole I choose were having leeks inside with the onions, and no tomato at all. Didn't liked the taste of the leek. Too sweet. The kebab of my wife was good. The cod and chips of my daughter was good too. The service was fast. The place was too hot. The price was a little high compared to other places we've been. But overall to try. ”
“ Very good service,very good food in general. Actually one of the best place here in my opinion. ”
“ A lovely restaurant - particularly if you’re in need of a quality meal before/after a ferry. Food is very good, house wine is well above average, ambience is gentle with a great view. Also helped feed us quickly and grab us a taxi before a flight - very grateful for their wonderful service. ”
“ 18/8/24 Visited this family restaurant again!! A table outside with a wonderful sunset view. The vine tomatoes and local pitta were amazing. The linguine vongole is definitely one of the best in all my years of travelling to Italy, Greece, UK and the USA!!! I asked the chef how he achieved the perfect flavour balance!! The UMAMI was incredible. The family really cares and has passion, pride and professionalism. The restaurant itself is well appointed with background gentle music adding to the ambience. This family restaurant continues to attract business and pleasure dinners! Why? The quality of the home baked meat, fish and vegetarian options is amazing!! Amazing flavour, value and service. It's always busy and the daily kitchen specials always shine I have eaten here several times because there is never a risk of bad food or drink. The owners and family care a lot about every detail. We love this place. Excellent????????????????????????Best wishes Harry ”

“ I have been here and there, eaten some food around a lot of corners but here I get the best calf's liver in my life. Highly recomended. If you read it you should probably skip the Old Town and come here. ”
