Flisvos The Seaside Experience — Restaurant in Municipality of Central Corfu and Diapontia Islands

I rarely take the time to review places, unless they really surprise me, or disappoint me, so, here is my review.

The restaurant is located right next to the beach, by the water, in one of the more (not most) beautiful and graphic places you can visit at Corfu / Kerkira, it gets quite crowded around 2-5 pm, mostly by tourists and though the airport is really close, there is no real issue with the noise. It's really nice all in all. 1/2 Star for the Location

The service / server was really kind, courteous and well mannered, took some time to explain the dishes as well as the wines we wanted to order, poured water in our cups and asked time after time whether we wanted something more. +1 Star for the Service.

Food: So, we went ahead and ordered a Seafood Rissoto, a Milokopi with smoked potato puree, a fish soup and steamed mussels.

Seafood Rissoto : According to the server, and after being asked several times for clarification, all their dishes were fresh, so, seafood consisted of FRESH octopus, shrimps and mussels. Octopus didn't even remotely resemble the taste of how octopus tastes (really small pcs 3-4) and it was profoundly NOT FRESH, probably frozen (for quite some time). The shrimp (2 pcs) were fresh, to our knowledge and taste, leaving the mussels in question, as the 2 pcs in the rissoto were hard boiled and tasteless. The rissoto itself was more like a puree, second grade rice that was way overcooked and left to drink all its water. (19 euros for a dish that left us largely disappointed, to put it mildly.

Milokopi with Smoked Potato Puree: Milokopi, fish, was a really small ration of a fish, very thin (abt 1cm I 'ld say) and no more than 10 cm in length, clattered with a puree that was not smoked as the catalogue mentioned and server confirmed, and was more liquid than solid, probably a powdered version of potato puree, commonly sold at markets, add water and "Voila", some added tomato sauce to strengthen the flavour and there you go, a disaster of a dish. (Another 19 Euros dish which wouldn't cost more than 3-4 euros to make, judging from its appearance and taste)

Fish Soup: Once more the soup was supposed to be made of different fish, in Greece a "Kakavia" is a soup made from a pot of different, usually rare fish like scorpion fish, dragon fish, catfish etc. we asked the server and she said it was fresh fish of different kinds of not common fish. These kinds of fish which don't really offer much of a food, on the contrary, make a fantastic soup. Again, the soup could had been made from a sea bream for all we know which you couldn't really tell because it had a strong spice taste, effectively making it a spice soup. (9 euros for 300ml of spices and water)

Steamed Mussels: Well, this one was actually good, the mussels looked fresh, tasted fresh and smelled fresh. (12 euros for 8 pcs).

For your reference, I visited on the 27th of May, after being lured by the way over bloated critics and reviews of the place.

This is my humble opinion, based on a 4 dishes we tasted and 70...

UPD: The owner / restaraunt team cannot even accept critique. In this case my last sentence in the review about customer care is absolutely right

I can give only 1 star to this place and it's will be only for the landscape view.

We have ordered Pasta with shrimps in seashells sauce and tomatoes, chicken crispy crust fillet, frappe and cranberry juice.

Pasta was ok, but in every cheap canteen it will be better, there not enough ingredients was added and the chief unfortunately don't know what is salt and condiments at all.

Chicken fillet should be with crispy crust as it said in menu, but it was boiled and put on to the pan for 10 seconds to get some oil from it, but completely not for another reason.

Ice frappe tastes like coffee powder from cheap motel which was placed in fridge.

Cranberry juice. Juice from package is hard to spoil.

The waiter hasn't even asked how does the dishes tastes.

No any napkins was served, like salt and paper.

The cutlery was also messed up.

After that all the waiters haven't been spotted at least 7-10 minutes near our table and we have left our spot to find them and ask to get our bill. They have also asked for the tips, in this situation it is absolutely a NO-GO.

Review notes: This landscape view is out of the competition, but do you need to spend your money at not delicious food and waiters who doesn't take care...

Visited as were there to see wonderful little Mouse Island. Upon arrival were asked straight away if we were there to eat or drink. When we sat down we decided to move one table to the side as it had more sun. Apparently that was unacceptable as I overheard the guy who looked like he was the manager, complaining to other customers at the table just behind me about people who come here just to take up the valuable space which was meant and I quote “ for higher paying customers!!!” We didn’t even order yet!! My sister asked whether the cheese came with bread and was met with a style of explanation that basically implied we are dumb and don’t understand that it comes in a toast when it wasn’t written anywhere! When he realised we were gonna eat after all, suddenly started to say “please and thank you”! I eat out regularly in highly ranked places but never in my life I’ve ever seen anything like this! He clearly thinks that only because that’s place is there by the water and has no competition he can treat people however he pleases! Well - if you decide to visit - make sure you are a high paying customer otherwise god forbid you’ll take up the valuable place! Times are tough everywhere but this...
