Enalia — Restaurant in Pervolia

Generally, when entering the restaurant, the smell of frying. We were the only ones there - which did not bode well. We made a special detour to go there because of the recent entries on Google, photos and opinions!!! We always do this, especially when traveling with children. And here the drama began...

Disgusting! The worst food I have ever eaten during my visit to Cyprus! Unfortunately, also the most expensive, which is a complete abstraction! We ordered Fish Meze for two people and two separate dishes for children. The fruit did not smell fresh, the octopus was rubbery and you could feel that it was rather old; I could not even eat the shrimp... moreover, we did not even touch the plate of fried fish, but you can see that they were deep-fried in breadcrumbs. The squid was slightly rubbery.

My son's hamburger looked like it was bought in the local Lidl - both the meat and the bun. It's a wonder they did not manage to "spoil" the fries. Daughters spaghetti with sauce also 'succeeded' because how can you mess that up! The parmesan itself didn't really seem fresh or even parmesan. Luckily it was served separately so it stayed in its own bowl.

I don't know what caused this change, whether it was the beginning of April and not the season yet, or maybe the main road was closed - a dead end. However, people were raving about the food 2 weeks earlier.....Maybe the cook was on holiday?

The worst spent...

I had the pleasure of visiting Enalia restaurant in Pervolia, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed and felt right at home.

The atmosphere is simply charming – a perfect blend of modern design and traditional touches, with a stunning view of the sea that made our meal even more enjoyable.

The menu offers an excellent selection of freshly prepared dishes that reflect both local and Mediterranean influences. I highly recommend the grilled fish dish – it was perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor! The appetizers were equally delicious, especially the meze platter, which showcased a wonderful array of tastes.

The service was outstanding. The staff was attentive, friendly, and very knowledgeable, which made the entire evening even more delightful.

Overall, Enalia is an absolute must-visit for anyone in Pervolia. Whether for a romantic dinner or a night out with friends, you’ll be wonderfully served and treated to a culinary delight. I’m already looking forward to...

Words cannot do justice to how amazing this restaurant and the staff are. My friend and I visited our first night as we were staying nearby and we returned twice more on our week-long trip to Cyprus. Food wise, it is absolutely delicious and portion sizes were generous, especially for the cost. Dishes were very affordable. The best mushrooms and pork chops I've ever tried, the halloumi was a perfect texture and the chicken kebab was better than any I've had elsewhere.

Whilst the food was amazing, we returned for the service, as the staff were so friendly and kind. Fotini and her husband made us feel very welcome, like we were part of the family. Everyone is so hardworking and genuine, they will make sure your visit is memorable. After the evening rush had slowed down a bit Fotini even spared some time to talk with us and connect. Honestly our visits to this restaurant were the highlights of our holiday!

If I return to Cyprus I will definitely be visiting again, and highly recommend...
