Platea — Restaurant in Polis Chrysochous

DO NOT GO, AVOID.

BAD service and terrible female waitress.

Poor attitude from lady - she should go work at mcdonalds but the service there is better. She may be racist. Anyway let's review

Female hostess was on her phone at the beginning of service didn't hand us drinks menu nor was attentive. Portions were bad and we asked why portions were small and other tables had other portions, were told it is a big potion for everyone and during this she was hostile and kept touching me with unwanted advances. I think she wanted some of my aubergine.

Food was good but because of the bad service it detracted from it. If you are looking for a good time out, GO TO Finikas or the terrace bar

Toilets Bad condition including female toilets and if you are a family avoid the toilets. Please go toilets beforehand ladies.

OVERALL: Do not recommend even for drinks to go to. Food was ok but avoid the female waitress and toilets.

Good points Male waitress was good.

Experience 1/10

Edit in response to owner* 03/10/2022: Just because you're from Brooklynn NY doesn't mean you're not racist. You provided all white people with complimentary Blaklawa and the female waitress provided us with terrible service and had a poor attitude from the beginning through to the end. The only redeeming point was the male hosts who were professional and I cannot standby and let other people experience what I did. Not on and until a change is made, my...

Just in from having attended this restaurant. I booked a table for 2 of us 24 hours before as having looked at reviews came upon this small restaurant and thought we would give it a try instead of the one in Latchi we had planned to visit. The result.... THE BEST METZE my wife and I have ate and possibly the best meal we have eaten over the many restaurant meals we've ate in the 8 years we've been coming to Cyprus. Very reasonably priced, delicious cooked meats, gorgeous dips and excellent salad. The pictures sadly don't do the meal justice (as I may have already pinched a few pieces off the plates!). My wife loved the large stuffed mushroom, whilst I throughly impressed by the Mossaka (which I believe had a base that had a hint of cinnamon - my favourite spice :)) Overall thoroughly impressed with this family restaurant with the husband cooking and the wife superbly serving the dishes. THIS IS A WEE CRACKER OF RESTAURANT. ITS APPEARANCE MAY BE SIMPLE, BUT THE FLAVOURS, PREPARATION AND SERVICE WERE FIRST CLASS. Thank you. Give it a go, sit down, relax...

We walked past one evening whilst on holiday in August and decided to try the next day, we are glad we did!

We didn't make a reservation but luckily the owners could fit us in as a family of 4. They informed us there would be live music (it was a Friday night) despite not understanding Greek, the act was great and not too loud that you couldn't still hold a conversation.

We ordered the meze and the chicken kebab and chips for the kids to share. The food was amazing! More than enough food for us two and for the kids to try a bit.

We then chose to return on our final night and despite it being exceptionally busy the atmosphere was great, the service was quick and the food was once again delicious! We ordered the meze again for all 4 of us as even our 10 and 5yo old enjoyed the different dishes! The female owner recommended a Cypriot white wine that was very good too!

The owners and the waiter were lovely and friendly on both visits.

We would highly recommend this place and if we were to return to Polis, we would...
