Replete with a beautiful rustic courtyard, good food, decent prices, and a friendly fat cat, this could be a great place.
However - we were very disappointed by the staff. We sat outside to enjoy the sun and, when other guests arrived, the staff extended the tarpaulin to place everything in shade. They seemed to prefer to waste money on heaters. We asked why and the reason was 'it might rain in hour' - how about extending the cover if it does rain?
We also were not allowed to sit at the table we wanted, for no apparent reason - the place was empty, with no reservation signs.
The Greek customers seemed to be enjoying themselves. I wouldn't suggest Brits come here as there seems to be a cultural clash which I have interpreted for rudeness and stupidity.
Edit after response from the owner:
"Dear Mrs. Garland"
'Sean' is a man's name.
"Thank you for your comment, but we believe that you are unfair to us and that because when you visited us it was a day that started with a little sun and continued with rain."

"As for all the rest, we have to tell you that by reading your reviews (in general) we find that most of the time you score without obvious reason with one or two stars, places that are world-renowned for their high quality service !!!!! !!!!"

We came on a Wednesday evening when they have live music with songs from the 50ies to the most modern that are considered the most popular in Greece! We took a table inside where the temperature was excellent neither very cold due to air con nor hot as the temp outside was 28oC. The service was excellent. We had been greeted with a smile and we have been offered for free our first bottle of beer. Coming to the food we ordered fried courgettes, fava and saganaki. All of them were simply the best we had for a very long time in Greece. The main were a ribeye steak and “paidakia”. To say they were the best we had for a very long time doesn’t make them justice! The ribeye was tender and juicy and was melting in the mouth. The same for the lamb chops. At the end they offered us watermelon (which was cold and sweet as it should be) and ice cream. We will definitely return as soon as we are...
