Sardelles - Seafood Restaurant — Restaurant in Municipality of Kos

Disappointing Service Mars an Otherwise Lovely Experience Our recent visit to this restaurant, ideally situated near Los Liman, left us with mixed feelings. While there were several high points, the overall experience was significantly marred by what appeared to be a severe shortage of staff. This review is a reflection of the conflicting feelings we had—a struggle between appreciating the good and being frustrated by the bad. Let's start with the positives, which were indeed notable. The location is excellent, offering a pleasant atmosphere that felt both cozy and intimate. The food itself was delicious, showcasing a clear effort and skill in the kitchen. Every dish we ordered was well-prepared and flavorful, a testament to the quality of the ingredients and the chef’s talent. The highlight of our evening, however, was the live music. We were fortunate enough to be there on a night with a performance, and it was a genuinely delightful addition to the dining experience. The musician was talented, creating a vibrant and enjoyable ambiance that made the small space feel even more special. Unfortunately, these positive aspects were overshadowed by a significant issue: the service. Despite the restaurant's small size, it was incredibly difficult to get the attention of a waiter. We found ourselves waiting for an unacceptably long time just to place an order, and subsequent requests for things like drinks or the check were similarly delayed. The staff, though few, seemed stressed and overwhelmed, which is completely understandable given the circumstances. This tension was palpable and created an atmosphere that was far from relaxing. It's a shame that a lack of adequate personnel led to such a stressful dining experience. The slow service and the apparent strain on the staff detracted from the delicious food and the lively music, preventing us from fully enjoying what could have been a perfect evening. To summarize, this restaurant has a lot of potential. The food is great, the location is charming, and the live music is a fantastic bonus. However, until they address their staffing issues, it will be difficult to recommend. The feeling of being neglected and the visible stress of the employees made what should have been a pleasant meal a frustrating ordeal. The beauty of the place and its offerings were sadly eclipsed by the palpable tension created by...

From the very first night of our arrival, this lovely Greek fish taverna stole our hearts. We wandered in for dinner without knowing what to expect, but it immediately felt like the perfect choice. Over the next few days we tried different restaurants—by the seafront, in the centre, and further out—but none of them compared. We happily returned here, and for good reason.

The food is simply unforgettable: the freshest seafood, cooked to perfection, and the most flavorful dishes served in portions that leave you more than satisfied. The tzatziki deserves a special mention—it was the absolute best we’ve ever tasted, creamy, refreshing, and just perfect alongside the fish. Everything tasted so fresh that you could feel the sea and the tradition on the plate.

What makes this place even more special is the atmosphere and the people. The staff here are genuinely kind, welcoming, and attentive without ever being pushy. Unlike other places where people call out or pressure you to come in, here they greet you with sincerity and warmth, letting their hospitality speak for itself. That small but important detail made all the difference for us.

This is more than just a restaurant—it’s the kind of place that makes you want to linger, laugh, and come back again and again. If you want a true taste of Greece, both on your plate and in the way you’re treated, don’t miss this taverna.

Ευχαριστούμε πάρα πολύ, to the wonderful staff! your smiles, kindness, and delicious food made our stay unforgettable. We will always remember you and can’t...

We had lunch at this restaurant on September 7th, and it was a terrible experience. Most of the meat was burnt, and when we complained, the first waitress didn’t even listen. She just shrugged it off, saying “it’s meat, it can happen.” Then her supervisor came over, apologized, and offered to reduce our bill by half, acknowledging the mistake and apologizing several times. However, after speaking with the kitchen, she returned right before we paid and said that the chef insisted that this was normal, and there was no issue with the burnt meat. As a result, she said she could no longer offer the discount and would have to charge us the full amount. When I reminded her of her initial reaction to the plate, she said there was nothing more she could do. It was unbelievable! I mentioned that I would leave a review, and she replied, “Go ahead, write your review.” The whole experience was disgraceful. The food was below average, and the service was awful. The person at the door tried to persuade us to come in. They forget this after you order the meal. Please check the photos and you will understand what we meant. We absolutely do not recommend this place....
