Tavern The Sea — Restaurant in Municipality of Aegina

After several days on this beautiful island and having more than just a few places that we ate in for lunch and dinner we got to this beautiful restaurant and had the best food we ate in Greece in the past few trips that we had in our visits. The service was wonderful (we were in May I don't know how will it be in July and August when they will be packed but hey with a view like they have why rush to anywhere..). The Fried zucchini balls were amazing! Same was the Imam Baildi, their fishes were soft, tender and full of juiciness and flavor. The deserts were fabulous, try the Pistachio icecream and the Greek yogurt with local marmalade. We came back 3 days in a row since we have found it to be the best place to eat around. Give it a try you will...

We waited almost 2 hours to be served, but I could forgive that, since the place was really busy.

I am Greek and I know very well the difference between grilled and boiled octopus. We finally only had salad and cheese and left hungry. What a...

We discovered Thalassa while looking for a good swimming spot, and it turned out to be the perfect find. The restaurant is perched right above the rocks with direct access to the sea via a small metal staircase – an amazing place to take a dip before or after a meal.We started with saganaki and kolokythokeftedes, both of which were excellent, and paired them with ice-cold draft beers that hit the spot on a hot day. Later we tried the imam baildi, which was simply delicious. Portions were generous, flavors authentic, and the prices very reasonable.Overall, this place combines a stunning seaside setting with tasty homemade food and great value for money. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in...
