The food at O'Tzivas is seriously good. Our yacht crew of 4 stopped off in Poros on a sailing trip last week, and all of us were impressed with the different dishes we ordered. We also stopped off in Ithaca, Zakynthos and other parts of Kefalonia. We had some good meals in all of those places.

Both dishes had an amazing potato gratin and roasted vegetables. Our table overlooked the boats in the little harbor and the service was exceptional. Seriously the best restaurant on Kefalonia in Poros Harbor. We will...
