Diporto — Restaurant in Municipality of Central Corfu and Diapontia Islands

Outside, we were met by a Greek lady who asked us- twice- ( in an slightly inpatient and rough manner) whether we have read the menu, conveying that we were not welcomed in without being sure we were staying there. Fine, we looked through the menu briefly and thought there were some good options. We got a table, and I felt slightly anxious as menu actually did not state what were the vegetarian options... She comes over to get our order and I respectfully mentioned that it was not clear whether some of the dishes were vegetarians, perhaps having a "v" sign would help!?( this is not usually a problem for us at all, but given the initial pressure she conveyed outside, it would be helpful to have a clearer indication of the veggie dishes in their menu, to avoid people sitting down than leaving straight after- precisely what she didn't want) Very rudly and loudly, she says that that was a Greek restaurant, a family run restaurant etc etc...I lost my appetite. My husband had his food. At the end I went to talk to her( upset, but again respectfully), to share my experience as a customer, perhaps she, as I, could take something out of it? What for... the woman started spitting fire, shouting, making accusations...( I won't even go into detail...). I haven't been to Greece many times, but my experience of Greek hospitality has been far, far...

I'm not sure of we hit the place on an off day or we were just unlucky.

We had been really looking forward to the visit following the great reviews. Our waitress was lovely and informative about the traditional dishes which we didn't know about.

For starters we had ordered the courgette balls and the calamari. The courgette came out first and we enjoyed this. We had thought that the calamari was forgotten about, but shortly after finishing the courgette it arrived. Which was fine until just two bites into the calamari, the main courses were placed in front of us too (hence the lower service rating). This was just shocking as we had barely touched the calamari at this stage. The calamari was tough and unenjiyabke so we didn't eat it. The waitress was kind to remove it from the bill as it wasn't as nice as half the places we had been.

The mains were underwhelming too. I had prawns pasta, which had very little taste, dispite the menu saying basil in the dish, it was hard to believe there was any in the dish. As for my partner had a traditional pasta dish but the beef was dry and lacked flavour also.

Experience with the waitress was lovely as she really wanted us to...

Unfriendly and average food only. With a group of six (4 adults, 2 kids) we found the restaurant on Google and arrived for lunch. We took a table for 6, but when the waitress understood that 2 of us wanted drinks only she explained us that this is not possible. She explained that people with drinks would stay long, occupy the seats, and she also refused to give us a smaller table with two additional chairs although the restaurant was not even half full (around 7 out of 10 tables were free). There was no room for discussion and our grandparents had to leave the restaurant. We stayed because the kids were super hungry. The food we ordered was decent, but not great. The Mousaka was warmed up, cold in the middle and the food took 30min to be served. All in all a very unpleasant experience. The restaurant looks nice, but the customer friendliness is below the bar and the food is just okay. We would not go there again. By the way, the photo shows the restaurant at the end of our lunch (2 additional free tables outside). The restaurant has not been even close to full during our stay and we still don’t get why our grandparents could not stay. Very...
