Ocean Basket Dhekelia — Restaurant in Pyla

Eating at Ocean Basket Dhekelia proved to be an amazing culinary experience.

First of all, the staff is absolutely lovely; Rafael and Diana provided us with everything we needed during the dining service; they were communicative and helpful. The service is fast and efficient; you never have to wait too long for your order to come. They offered us sauces and bread on the house, which was a really nice addition.

The drinks are also very well prepared; we absolutely loved the frozen mojito.

Moreover, at this restaurant you can choose whether you want your food grilled, fried, or Cajun, and I recommend them all (the grilled fish is amazing, and for calamari I recommend the fried option). The fish was cooked to perfection and also boneless. The halloumi cheese works perfectly as a starter. The main dishes are accompanied by rice and chips, which are not to be ignored as they are full of flavor. The portion sizes are also very generous (there were 3 of us, and we couldn't manage to finish the platter for 2—no worries, they offer take-away for free). There are also some tasty dessert options, which I highly suggest.

As for the seating options, you can choose to be seated inside or outside (we chose outside to also bond with the...

Outstanding Service by Dilyana at Ocean Basket!

I had the absolute pleasure of being served by Dilyana at Ocean Basket, and I must say, she truly elevated our dining experience to a whole new level! From the moment we arrived, she greeted us with a warm smile and an incredibly professional yet friendly attitude.

Her attention to detail was impeccable—she anticipated our needs before we even had to ask, ensuring our drinks were always refilled and that every dish arrived perfectly timed. She was knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations that turned out to be absolutely delicious!

What stood out the most was her genuine passion for hospitality. She made us feel not just like customers but like valued guests. Even during the busiest moments, she remained calm, efficient, and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed.

If you’re dining at Ocean Basket, I highly recommend asking for Dilyana—you won’t be disappointed! She is a true asset to the restaurant, and I will definitely be returning thanks to her exceptional service.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Absolutely...

We choose this restaurant because of the high reviews and it was close to our holiday home. We sat outside and were greeted friendly. Nice personnel. We were given bread with some dips. The dips were so delish (garlic and chili!) but unfortunately the bread was quite dry. As a starter we choose a sushi platter, meze platter and some riceballs. The sushi was pretty good and we like the meze platter also! It started well. For our main dishes we ordered: salmon, kingprawns, calamari (cooked in 3 ways) and a fish platter for 1. We did not like it that much. The portions are big but the fish tasted not so fresh. It was a bit greasy and dry. The sauces on it was not very good too, it did not complement the fish but made the dish worser. I can understand that some people will like this, but we were missing some pure flavours and this was too much. The restaurant has a beautiful ambience and a plus here is that the personnel keeps an eye on the cats. Any cats near our table were shood away by them. It is a populair restaurant, we have seen them in Larnaca and Ayia Napa. It was...
