Itâs unfortunate that a place with such reputation and quality of the food, canât control the situation with the flies. We were in our second visit in the restaurant and I couldnât finish my lunch because of âbattling/fightingâ with this awful pest.
The second waiter who assisted us, which was helpful and servicial, gave us a weird explanation about it: itâs the season, thereâs nothing that we can doââŚ
Excuse me but there are more than 1000 ways to control pests, starting with closing all the 6 huge doors/windows that you guys have, and keeping only one access to the public with some purple light where the fly will be attracted to, keeping the tables clean faster you also avoid the attraction of them to the food. Honestly the second visit was not like the first time (one day difference).
On another note, it may be or not full responsibility of the restaurant and it may be the city, but you canât make your clients feel so left behind because of this.
Flies are a huge RED FLAG for higiene situation in the place (weâve been in other restaurants in loutraki and we didnât encounter this)
I had to take my food as take away because I couldnât enjoy my stay.
Letâs hope that next season you guys will learn about this and take advantage of constructive feedback.
PS: a good idea would be also to have an area of non smoking people at the terrace demarcated with some Perspex glass so clients can also enjoy it without the cloud of...

Came here with my husband to celebrate our wedding anniversary, hoping for a nice evening, good food, and decent service. What we got instead was a disaster.
The same waiter came to our table three times, each time forgetting who ordered what. He simply dropped everything in the middle of the table with a âfigure it out yourselvesâ. Thatâs not service â thatâs chaos.
We wanted to start with some Prosecco â a basic ask for an Italian restaurant, right? Apparently not â they didnât have any. So we asked: âDo you have Aperol?â â âYes.â âWhat do you make it with, if you donât have Prosecco?â â âWith wine.â Excuse me? Aperol with white wine?! Thatâs not creative â thatâs just wrong. We didnât even bother ordering it after that.
Then came the food: ⢠Risotto with mushrooms and truffle â except there was no truffle to be found. ⢠Shrimp risotto â served with unpeeled shrimp, buried in hot rice. No tools, no care â just peel it yourself with your fingers if youâre desperate enough to eat.
Overall: completely underwhelming and careless. If youâre going to call yourself an Italian restaurant â at least try not to insult...
   Read moreWell, I think there is a lot of truth in saying "In Greece you should only eat greek food" After 4 days of eating traditional greek food, we decided to go to italian restaurant and try different cuisne. We found on google maps Pepe Rosso with very good rating. For starters we ordered mozzarella sticks. The truth is that mozzarella sticks is not italian food. You wont find it in genuine italian restaurant but we assumed that it's for tourists and it does not say necessarly that this restaurant is bad and just pretend to be italian. Now, the thing that alarmed us was the sweet-sour dip served along with the sticks. SWEET-SOUR DIP in "italian" restaurant! The kind of a dip you get when order spring rolls in chinese restaurant! After this food failure we got 2 pizzas - Caprese and Pepperoni. Pizza had nothing in common with genuine, italian pizza. It was served on thick crust (kind of pizza hut) with tons of greasy cheese on top of it. You can imagine how bad it was. So guys, stay away from this place. Go to some good traditional greek restaurant instead, because in Greece rules Zues not Jupiter (especially, fake...
