To Tsikoudo — Restaurant in Chios Municipality

During my recent visit to Chios, I had the pleasure of dining at To Tsikoudo, and it was an absolute delight! This charming restaurant offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere that combines traditional Greek aesthetics with modern comfort. The staff at To Tsikoudo were incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that our dining experience was exceptional.

We only ate here because our first choice was fully booked and they had space for 9 (a bad sign for a last minute reservation).

I ordered the Kebab, which comes as two pieces of meat along with from frozen fries and mayonnaise dip…the 1st piece was cooked but the 2nd was raw. Having been in the restaurant business myself, this is unacceptable and usually a sign of a frozen patty not being cooked to proper temperature. I told our water, he didn’t say much. When the bill finally came it was still on there. I spoke to the owner, he refused to acknowledge that it was a risk to serve this or to remove from our bill.

Terrible experience, mistakes happen but it’s how they are dealt with that makes or breaks it. If I could give a zero star review I would.

Overall, it was a delightful experience with a few minor drawbacks. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the boiler octopus, which was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and simply delicious. The calamari was also a standout, with a fresh, crispy texture that was very enjoyable. Complementing these seafood dishes were the fried zucchini and eggplant, which were equally delicious and added a nice variety to the meal.

However, the service did leave something to be desired. It was a bit slow, likely due to a lack of resources, which slightly detracted from the overall experience. Despite this, the quality of the food made the wait worthwhile.

In conclusion, if you're willing to be a bit patient, this restautant is a fantastic choice for...
