George's Restaurant — Restaurant in Lefkada Municipality

The worst service I have ever experienced. We reserved a quayside table in plenty of time, for 8pm but when we arrived (at 7:55) it was already taken so we were seated in the square. We ordered a starter and it arrived with our mains at 9:30pm, an hour and a half after arriving. We were recommended a wine but offered the option to try it and change if we didn't like, yet the waitress never reappeared (we weren't happy with it and would have tried something else!). Our daughter's cheese Saganaki was cold and therefore chewy, the chips we ordered were undercooked (others with a dish we're in a sauce so completely soggy), and there was absolutely no customer service throughout. As others around us departed, their leftovers were finished off by a pack of stray cats. I waited at the table for 30 minutes after finishing (my family had left in disgust) with no interaction from any staff. When I gave in and went to the kitchen to ask if they wanted payment, I was pushed between 3 staff members resulting in a thankless presentation of the card machine, before I stated my complaint (no one asked how the meal was- I suspect they predicted the answer). Yet another waiter was summoned to deal with my complaint but stated that he couldn't do anything about it and the Boss wasn't around. I pointed at George, the owner, 10 yards away and eventually a discount was agreed, but we will not be returning, and will recommend that others give this seemingly monopoly-holding venue a miss. There are other Tavernas and restaurants nearby, but we would rather have cooked our own simple pasta. NOT...

George’s is a real taste of Greece on the Ionian Sea

During my sailing adventure across the Ionian Sea, I had the pleasure of visiting a Greek restaurant — and what else could it be, really?

The ambiance instantly transported me into the world of Mamma Mia! — whitewashed walls trimmed with ocean blue, crisp linen-covered tables, and wooden chairs perched so close to the water you could almost dip your toes. The setting alone deserved applause.

The meal began with a generous parade of appetizers: fresh vegetables kissed by the sun, creamy feta drizzled with honey, and fragrant herbs like dill that tied everything together. Simplicity, elevated.

For the main course, I went for grilled shrimp and squid stuffed with tangy cheese — both grilled to perfection, smoky and rich. Those with room left at the end were rewarded with a decadent slice of baklava or a rich chocolate cake paired with ice cream. (Yes, I tried both. No regrets.)

It felt like dining in the middle of a “Big Fat Greek Wedding” — loud, joyful, and deliciously chaotic in the best way.

This culinary gem didn’t just feed the body — it deepened the overall experience of my voyage: swimming in shallow turquoise coves, admiring the charming architecture of island villages, and surrendering to the rhythm of Greek island life.

Highly recommended for anyone seeking more than just a meal —...

Do you know when you call harbour to reserve a spot for your boat and dinner in George’s restaurant and you’re sure you’ll sail 2 hours to harbour but at the end you have to struggle to park your boat because they didn’t reserve anything ?? And finally when you already lost 2 hours to leave your boat in the harbour you go to the restaurant and they didn’t reserve a table and you have to wait other two hours to have a seat in George’s Restaurant?? And when you finally realise you are going to eat because you’ve ordered dishes but after an hour the waiter tells you that all you want to eat it’s finished?? How do you call this? I call It nightmare, when you throw out your day just to sail and eat at George’s harbour and Restaurant. And at the end of the day you’re constraint at midnight to find another place to have something to eat because you have waited all you’re dinner time to have dinner and you won’t because George’s restaurant It’s unable to tell you in time that there is no food and place to stay .. It means you have been mocked up.

God...
