Real quality Greek quality place, for many years, with excellent view on the harbour port! Go here, you won’t regret!The terrace is always full of people with taste for the good, honest, quality food and wine / drinks.For local fish, Greek salad, best spinach & feta fritters, seafood, but also traditional chicken with salad or rice. Good local wine. Excellent quality price ratio. Don’t miss it. This makes the evening with a smile for you or your family or group!

Romantic setting in the evening - be early or reserve to get your favourite place. However they will always add table by table as the evening continues. Friendly, very good English speaking staff. Good island food, rather big portions. Prices are okay!

Highly memorable restaraunt that I've ever been at the port. Absolutely worth a visit even if you after a light bite to eat or drink. Seating available right at the boats! Staff are really nice and attentive.

The best restaurant of the Island. Very very good fish in a typical tavern of IOS, at the port. Good prices for amazing food. We will come back!it is better to do the reservation because in the summer period is full every night.
