After spending a lot of time in Argostoli, Lassi & surrounds at various establishments being impressed by location, but rarely by the food (or the pricing for that matter) we were bored. So we opted to go 10min past the Marina on the other side to Arestas Taverna - a journey that made the gastronomic element of our Kefalonia trip immediately worthwhile! At last - authentic Greek food made with super-fresh ingredients (mostly from their farm below and organic) with incredible hospitality from Elli (Front of House) & her husband Sakis (in the kitchen). Lamb chops - large portions, succulent, perfectly seasoned & grilled, moist Souvlakis, as well as wonderful appetisers. The Dessert we had of Semolina Halva - when I first saw it - I didn't think was going to be great but was fantastic.

Service was super efficient and friendly and we instantly felt at home - this is what real Greek hospitality should look like! Yet another bonus was the plentiful parking right outside which was a welcome change from the desperate search for parking in Argostoli late at night. We will definitely be recommending this hidden gem to...
