We came relatively late in the evening, but the owner still made time to interact with us and made us feel like home. The smell of yasmin in bloom in the air, cosy small terrace with old greek music lightly playing, everyone being so friendly, it felt almost as we were at our grandparents place, it felt safe. The food was extraordinary (we had a few tips on how to improve a meal we usually eat at home, who would have thought that a few drops of lemon would make such a difference). The interior seems as if you walked into a family home, and even though it was past midnight, when i went from the restroom back to the terrace, while i stopped to admire the place, the owner stood by me and explained his family in the photos hanging everywhere. He found time to have a chat and a drink with us, and it almost felt like we belong there, a perfect example of philoxenia (a strictly Greek term which we learned both in terms and examples all through our stay on the island).

Read moreHonestly this was the best place I've eaten last year. In the time we spend on Kos we eventually went back 3 times to this place. The food is so amazingly good! Note that they don't have the standard Greek foods like musaka saganaki cheese or souvlaki. But what they do have is a large amount of different kind of authentic Greek style kitchen foods. The owner is extremely nice and really wants you to feel comfortable. It's besides all that also probably the cheapest place we have eaten.
