Nestled in a location that presents a bit of a journey to reach, this restaurant is an absolute gem and a must-visit destination. The final stretch to arrive involves navigating hairpin turns on a three-dimensional landscape, but rest assured, the effort is entirely worthwhile.
Upon arrival, guests are greeted with a stunning view facing eastward, as the restaurant's name suggests. The panoramic vista alone makes the trip memorable.
The staff exemplifies excellence, offering attentive and friendly service. They are knowledgeable about the daily specials, which are not to be missed. Their willingness to guide diners through the menu enhances the overall dining experience.
The menu boasts a variety of options, but we chose to focus on the specials and some classic dishes that never disappoint, such as the rooster and rabbit with thick spaghetti. The Ampelofassia was particularly delicious, as was the fried cheese bread, which evoked memories of a traditional recipe my mother used to make. Every dish was flavorful, and the high quality of the ingredients was evident.
As the sun sets, the temperature drops, so it's advisable to bring a jacket to enjoy the pleasantly cool evening air.
I eagerly anticipate my next opportunity to dine here and highly recommend it to anyone...

And the view, absolutely breathtaking. We were also offered dessert, a thoughtful gesture that perfectly rounded off the lunch. We’ll definitely be back to try...

We had a bread filled with feta cheese to start and then the meat pie and Rooster Pasta for mains. The dishes were nice and well flavoured. However the portion sizes were very large. The bread was the size of a small-medium pizza and the pasta could very easily have served two. It's nice to have generous portions, but you can sometimes feel rude by leaving food just due to the sheer amount of it.
The atmosphere was laid back and relaxed, but could have done with perhaps some light music in...
