This restaurant should have at least one Michelin star, if not more. If I could give it 10 stars, I would. A part of me wants to keep this hidden gem to myself, but also want to share this review with other tourists in the area.
The restaurant doesn’t have the menu in English which tells you enough who they cater to - it’s not a common tourist trap.
The staff was more than amazing in helping us navigate the menu. The baked cheese with pistachios & other nuts with tomato marmalade was nothing but heavenly. I would drive like hours just for this dish. Then, the most popular salad on the menu (I’m not going to do justice to it) some sort of arugula like greens with shaved cheese, tomatoes and bread - out of this world. Baked shrimp - to die for.
And then, and the very end, baklava bites with sweet cherries - I mean, it was literarily melting in my mouth.
If you happen to be in the area (even if it is 2h+ drive), you absolutely ought to visit this place. You won’t be disappointed!

A hidden gem at Calypso Beach – truly unforgettable! Marathoriza is the kind of taverna you dream of discovering: unpretentious, right by the sea, with an atmosphere so peaceful it feels like time stands still.
We started with the Almira salad – vibrant, fresh, and full of flavor – followed by seaweed with tomatoes and anthotiro, which was nothing short of extraordinary. The fried shrimp in tomato pâté were a revelation, and the octopus with olives and capers was so tender and perfectly cooked, it practically melted in the mouth.
The calamari with vegetables was another highlight – delicate, aromatic, and beautifully balanced. We were also served olives and a delicious olive paste as a welcome – a lovely touch that set the tone.
After a long break since September, the kitchen is finally back, and it was deeply missed. Marathoriza combines the elegance of refined cuisine with the charm of a seaside taverna – and all at very reasonable prices. A rare and wonderful find. We will...
