Serif Taverna — Restaurant in Municipality of Kos

During our recent holiday, my boyfriend and I had the pleasure of dining at Serif multiple times, and it quickly became one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we walked in, we felt like we were visiting old friends rather than dining out.

Serif offers an great menu that caters to all tastes. As vegetarians, we found plenty of delicious options to choose from, and I have no doubt that vegans would be equally satisfied. The prices were great especially for us as students. We just got multiple starters and were totally satisfied. Every dish was a hit. And half liter of wine starts at 5€!!!

However, what truly set Serif apart was the warm and welcoming atmosphere created by Ali and his wonderful wife. Their passion for what they do shines through in every interaction. As well as the other waitstuff, they took the time to chat with us, share invaluable tips about the island, and ensure that we had a good time. Their genuine kindness and enthusiasm made each visit a memorable experience.

If you find yourself in Kos or in the area, dining at Serif is an absolute must, especially if you enjoy being among the locals. With a car or bike, it's easy to reach– just a short drive up the hill.

We can't wait to return! Lots of love Matilda and Jonas!!

P.S.: Ali and his wife love their cats and do their best to care for them. If you want to help, we're sure they can connect you with the right people.

The service is extremely slow, the owner is rude and unprofessional, when it comes to asking for individual orders, don't go there. Not only is the place nice, the service is TERRIBLE!!!!! We have a saying here: Why is there someone whose name I don't want to know, who is far from polite and aesthetic, whose service is slow, who has long hair, who is incompetent? We say, "You are smiling, tradesman, but if you are sullen (not smiling), go and become a civil servant." Who are you to question the customer's wishes!?#@₺ you adjust? Go away, let someone else do this job. DISGRACEFUL SERVICE PERSON.... Η εξυπηρέτηση είναι εξαιρετικά αργή, ο ιδιοκτήτης είναι αγενής και αντιεπαγγελματικός, όταν πρόκειται να ζητήσετε μεμονωμένες παραγγελίες, μην πάτε εκεί. Όχι μόνο είναι ωραίο το μέρος, η εξυπηρέτηση είναι ΤΡΟΜΕΡΗ!!!!! Εδώ έχουμε ένα ρητό: Γιατί υπάρχει κάποιος που δεν θέλω να μάθω το όνομά του, που απέχει πολύ από ευγενικό και αισθητικό, του οποίου το σέρβις αργεί, που έχει μακριά μαλλιά, που είναι ανίκανο; Εμείς λέμε «χαμογελάς, έμπορε, αλλά άμα είσαι σκυθρωπός (δεν χαμογελάς), πήγαινε να γίνεις δημόσιος υπάλληλος». Ποιος είσαι εσύ που αμφισβητείς τις επιθυμίες του πελάτη!;#@₺ προσαρμόζεσαι; Φύγε, άσε άλλον να κάνει αυτή τη δουλειά ΑΤΙΣΜΟΣ ΥΠΗΡΕΣΙΟΣ....Der Service ist extrem langsam, der Besitzer ist unhöflich und unprofessionell, wenn es darum geht, nach individuellen Bestellungen zu fragen, gehen Sie nicht dorthin. Nicht nur das Lokal ist schön, auch der Service ist SCHRECKLICH!!!!! Wir haben hier ein Sprichwort: Warum gibt es jemanden, dessen Namen ich nicht wissen möchte, der alles andere als höflich und ästhetisch ist, dessen Service langsam ist, der lange Haare hat, der inkompetent ist? Wir sagen: „Du lächelst, Kaufmann, aber wenn du mürrisch bist (nicht lächelst), geh und werde Beamter.“ Wer bist Du, die Wünsche des Kunden zu hinterfragen!?#@₺ Du verstellst Dich? Gehen Sie weg und lassen Sie jemand anderen diesen Job machen......Le service est extrêmement lent, le propriétaire est impoli et peu professionnel, lorsqu'il s'agit de demander des commandes individuelles, n'y allez pas. Non seulement l'endroit est sympa, mais le service est TERRIBLE !!!!! Nous avons un dicton ici : Pourquoi y a-t-il quelqu'un dont je ne veux pas connaître le nom, qui est loin d'être poli et esthétique, dont le service est lent, qui a les cheveux longs, qui est incompétent ? Nous disons : « Tu es souriant, commerçant, mais si tu es maussade (pas souriant), va devenir fonctionnaire ». Qui es-tu pour remettre en question les souhaits du client !?#@₺ tu ajustes ? Partez, laissez quelqu'un d'autre faire ce travail. PERSONNE DE SERVICE HONTE......Il servizio è estremamente lento, il proprietario è scortese e poco professionale, quando si tratta di chiedere ordini individuali, non andate lì. Non solo il posto è carino, il servizio è TERRIBILE!!!!! Abbiamo un detto qui: perché c'è qualcuno di cui non voglio sapere il nome, che è tutt'altro che educato ed estetico, il cui servizio è lento, che ha i capelli lunghi, che è incompetente? Diciamo: "Sei sorridente, commerciante, ma se sei scontroso (non sorridi), vai e diventa un funzionario pubblico". Chi sei tu per mettere in discussione i desideri del cliente!?#@₺ ti adatti? Vattene, lascia che qualcun altro faccia questo lavoro PERSONA DI SERVIZIO VERGOGNOSA.....Yazıklar olsun,utanç kaynağısın SEN. HADSİZZZ.🏁 Sol başta kırmızı T şort'lu şahıs.....Red T-shirt; We order two beers and fries for the waiters, who cannot see all five tables of customers, cannot understand what they are reading, and confuses shorts and t-shirts.You shamelessly confirmed what they did. I congratulate you.....Κόκκινο μπλουζάκι? Παραγγέλνουμε δύο μπύρες και πατάτες για τους σερβιτόρους, που δεν μπορούν να δουν και τα πέντε τραπέζια των πελατών, δεν μπορούν να καταλάβουν τι διαβάζουν και μπερδεύουν σορτς και μπλουζάκια. Επιβεβαίωσες ξεδιάντροπα αυτό που έκαναν. Σε συγχαίρω. Write at the entrance then, we DO NOT take orders for potatoes and beer in this...

The nice surprise of the trip - we would have never come here if it was not for a discussion with the Turkish lady from the ticket office for Bodrum. She told us there is a village on Kos with Turkish people so we knew the food would be amazing - and it was. We went two separate times. I tried the Kebab mix for 1 person and the Kavourma and both were delicious. The Borek was also nice, especially the one with meat. The hosts are very friendly. We will for...
