This place looks like a gourmet paradise, because it's a fair gourmet restaurant like the ones someone expects to see in big cities, but it's located on a village near pozar and that makes it an unexpected surprise for local gourmet lovers. The place itself is beautifully decorated and the personnel is reallly professional and kind. The menu is a classical gourmet one with some great ideas on the dishes, enough to give it its own identity. We had many appetizers, main dishes and deserts (more than 2 couples should, lol) and they were all great, even though I felt that some of them needed more care, as they lacked intensity and taste. One of the dishes we ordered was a ribeye which came actually burned and crispy at the edges. It was a dish that should never have been served, especially in a place like this. Off course I couldn't eat it, and when I was asked about it, I kindly mentioned it. The owner came and apologized about not having seen that, offered me another dish instead, and didn't charge that one, which - if you ask me - deserves an extra point, cause it shows how professional they are and that they care about the customer. Mistakes are made by everyone. It's a matter of how you deal with them that matters. Overall, it's a really great gourmet restaurant which I...
Read moreSome places deserve just the best. You might need to travel a few kms more, but it is worth visiting under any circumstances.
Hydrolithos is just one of them.
Impressive atmosphere, big wine selection and fantastic food. Moreover , the staff is very friendly and you just wish you could visit back the fastest possible. Wine list is extensive and very rich in colors and flavors. We had a Santorini red which was magnificent. The tagliatta was grilled perfectly and tasted great as well.My angus cheeks with aubergine was fantastic as well. Moreover, we have been offered a goat cheese which was the perfect combination with our red wine.
We will surely revisit this place just to enjoy...

Ψωμί δεν σέρβιρε αν δεν ζητούσαμε. Ας πάμε στο φαγητό: σαλάτα με ψητά λαχανικά και κινοα εντελώς άγευστη, αδιάφορη, τα ψητά λαχανικά παγωμένα μάλλον της προηγούμενης ημέρας. Κεφτεδακια μπουγιουρντι με τσιπς πατάτας και αυγό ποσέ: στικς πατατάκια περιπτέρου, κεφτεδακια ωμά, από αυγό υπήρχε μονο ασπράδι, και αυτό αγευστο χωρίς αλάτι. Μάγουλα μοσχαρίσια με πουρέ κολοκύθας το ίδιο αγευστο, αλάτι δεν υπήρχε καθόλου, τα ίδια στικς περιπτέρου από πάνω. Τελος το κοντοσουβλι χοιρινό θα έλεγα ότι ήταν λίγο χειρότερο από γιαουρτλου κακής ποιότητας καντίνας, επίσης της προηγούμενης ημέρας οι πατάτες. Από ατμόσφαιρα ας πούμε απλά ότι καθυστέρησαν μερικές μέρες να ξεστολισουν τα χριστουγεννιατικα. Το pos είχε ένα προβληματάκι... ξεφορτισε; χαλασε; Συμπέρασμα: φαγητό άθλιο, ...
