O Elios — Local services in Argostoli Municipality

The bar is set high for atmosphere in Greece bc it tough to compete with the best and you have to try hard to find a bad spot. But this place killed it on food and service. We did take away. While We waited they let us sit out side and have a couple beers. The food was ready in under the time they estimated. We sampled the souvlaki, Greek salad, french fries, gyros, typical food that you can easily mess up. Turns out this place is a hidden gem. It was about five minute drive from our place down on the shoreline in town. Most of the restaurants there in town are pretty good and they are pretty packed in the evenings for good reason.

It is an excellent place to have dinner with traditional Greek cuisine. Keep in mind that most of the dishes are based on meets but are very tasty. Also enjoyed tzatziki and wine there. Water is for free and also you get some fruits for dessert on the house. The atmosphere is very warm and the food is served really fast. I recomand to call to make reservation as it happened not too have room for 7 people when we arrived...
