Ennia Po'hs — Restaurant in Lemnos Municipality

This may possibly be my most favorite place on Limnos (and that's a very high bar)!

2020 UPDATE: This is still by far my favorite restaurant on the island. They have upped their game since 2018. The dishes are new and extremely cool. All of the food is amazing, just go and try whatever you want.

2024 UPDATE: Food is still excellent. Tuna Tataki was excellent. Fava with Mackarel was much better than we expected. The highlight were the desserts - Creme Brulee was AMAZING, Cheesecake was excellent, the Yogurt was meh.

2018 ORIGINAL REVIEW:

GENERAL: This is a small restaurant in two parts - out front on the Lichna town square there are small tables and small dishes (we sat there), out back is the garden for bigger tables and a bigger menu. Call ahead to reserve a table during busy periods.

THE FOOD: In general, the food was a-m-a-z-i-n-g. The front part of the restaurant has a one-page menu. The portions were small in size (mid-point between tapas and a regular dish) and small in price (€3-5 each). Everything was delicious. Especially liked the Aubergine Salad with Tahini (photo), the Fava with Octopus (photo), and the daily special, which was Sardine Fillets (photo). The only dish we didn't like was the Marinated Sepia with Tarama, but that's only because it was too heavy as a last dish and entirely a wrong choice on our part. For dessert, there is homemade Halva, but you get some homemade chocolates with the check anyway :)

THE ATMOSPHERE: The atmosphere was one-of-a-kind. Go there in the evening. There is quiet Greek/jazz/chill music playing in the background. The evening breeze in July makes for a perfect temperature. The town square is interesting and authentic to observe - the town priest wanders by, the locals sit on benches and talk, the kids play around the fountain... The lighting is soft and perfect. In fact, everything is perfect.

THE SERVICE: Our waitress was very nice, attentive and quick. She never said anything when we left our table for 10 minutes to walk around town, and even gave us extra...

Nestled in the heart of the village's charming main square, this restaurant is a hidden gem that took me on a heartwarming journey back in time. The ambiance immediately felt welcoming, with the gentle buzz of local chatter and the picturesque surroundings capturing the essence of village life.

From the moment I walked in, I was enveloped by the delightful aroma of traditional dishes, reminiscent of my grandmother's kitchen. The menu, though rooted in classic village fare, showcased an elevated finesse that promised a unique dining experience.

In conclusion, this restaurant is not just a place to dine but an experience that feels like a cherished family memory brought to life. Whether you're a local or a passerby, a visit here is bound to evoke beautiful memories and offer a taste of cherished traditions with a modern touch. Highly...

Although the hype I read before visiting, I am not impressed. Yes, the place and atmosphere were very nice. The service was above average, but the food...te food needs improvement. The starters were good, I liked them - tuna tartar and the pandzar watermelon salad. The second dish with the Limnos mushrooms...I was expecting something really original. And what came out? Oyster mushrooms! Burnt oyster mushrooms, burnt to black and on the top...sour oyster mushrooms! The mains...Paella type dish - only the shrimps were fine, the other things inside - zero star. Pork neck - 3 stars. Lamb with risotto - 2 stars. Risotto was sour too. I know greeks love lemon, but you can't put lemon juice in oyster mushrooms and risotto guys! Desserts...so called tiramisu wasn't tiramisu at all! You need some new...
