This is a nice restaurant by the side of the road, right next to the sea, so you get the seaview as well. Food was very good, even delicious, only the service lacked a bit because all younger staff didn't understand English properly. The more experienced (veteran) staff had very well spoken English but they didn't serve the tables, and the younger staff had to ask them for clarifications. For example, they didn't understand the difference between fish from the farm vs. from the sea (wild).
This is what we served: For starters, I had the shrimp saganaki, very delicious and tasty, highly recommend for all saganaki lovers. My girlfriend had Mediterranean sardines papigion, which were stuffed with cooked cherry tomatoes and a few other vegetables, also delicious. We also shared the grilled talagani cheese, such a delicious dish. But we would recommend it more as a desert rather than starter because of the fig jam on top, which made it sweet. For salads, we shared the Green salad, which was a big and tasty delight, with plenty of delicious and just well riped avocado. They didn't have any fish from the sea this time, only fresh sea bream (dorada) and fresh sea bass from the farm. We didn't have any room left for mains, anyway. But we did order a desert, the baklava with ice cream. It was delicious! Not overly sweet, with a well balanced taste of nuts and honey. The ice cream was mediocre, probably not home made.
I tried a freshly squeezed orange juice. It was good but it had lots of ice cubes and not so much juice in it. I don't like a drink with ice cubes because they melt fast and they dilute the content and its taste. The oranges were from the fridge, so I didn't understand the need for ice cubes...
The bill was 98.5€.
All in all, we highly recommend this restaurant...
Read moreA Dinner to Forget – But Hey, At Least the Staff Were Nice!
I booked a table here based on glowing reviews, feeling like I’d just landed a Michelin-level experience. Spoiler alert: I hadn’t.
Let’s start with the positive—the staff were fantastic. Friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. Honestly, they were the best part of the night. If service earned stars, they’d have a galaxy.
Now, the food. Oh, the food.
Octopus Salad: A sad, tiny piece of octopus drowned in overcooked Ouzo. The aniseed flavor was overpowering, and the texture reminded me of old rubber. Not a dish for anyone who likes octopus—or taste.
Cod Fricasse: More like cod in hot water. The fish was overcooked, watery, and flavorless, like it had been thawed one too many times and boiled out of spite. “Fricasse” is a generous term.
Linguine with Shrimp: The shrimp were severely overcooked, the mango was bizarrely out of place, and the linguine had dissolved into mush. A confusing, flavorless mess.
I left wondering if the chef had just thrown things together and hoped for the best. Honestly, it felt like a rough Monday night experiment gone wrong. Chef, please—take notes from your stellar team.
In short: service was outstanding, but the food was a chaotic disappointment. I came for a celebration, and got a main...
Read moreThis restaurant was a lovely discovery. It is next to our accommodation, so we went spontaneously there around 9 PM, and even if it was full we have been welcomed in less than 3 minutes. We also have been super lucky because we found the only table left next to the sea and we had an amazing and romantic dinner. The staff were super nice and welcoming, very professional, elegant and kind. Prices are super ok, considering it is a top up restaurant, the kindness of the staff, the great service and the quality and taste of the food. Food was DELICIOUS, the best so far we have had here in Kefalonia. We had a shrimps risotto which we LOVED. Then we had the grilled octopus, ( we forgot to take the picture, but believe me it was incredibly tasty), and then the grilled squid, which also was super tasty! We’ll be back there for sure during our stay! Also we received a shot of fruity liquor on the house which was great! Thanks for the amazing dinner, my mom and me really appreciated the...
