TavernaChristiana — Restaurant in Municipality of Kos

Although this place looks and feels like it's still in the 1980s (opened in 1983 and I doubt has changed much since), this is a proper family-run taverna. Husband and wife in the kitchen and daughter waitress, with simple but well cooked Greek food on the menu. The food here was great, not fancy or modern but exactly how I imagine Greek food is eaten at home. Lamb Kleftiko was very good, tender and tasty. The owner was very friendly and offered us a drink on the house - we chose ouzo which was nicer than some we've had in restaurants. The were few in when we visited - not long after opening just past 7pm - so the service was very quick and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Very reasonable prices too, our cheapest meal out...

Although we have visited Kos town on may occasions it was not until last night that we called in on this little gem of a taverna. Of course there is the normal menu but also 6 set menues for two. We picked menu 3, which included, a Greek salad, garlic bread, tzatziki, suffed vine leaves, zuchini croquettes, Saganaki meatballs, stuffed peppers and beans. Also a glass of wine each. We also selected a 1/2 liter of wine, which was a very nice dry red. Everything was hot and tasty. The service was friendly and efficient and all for a very reasonanle €36. Just along from Dolphin Square, don't miss this...

Tucked down a little side street hides this absolute gem of a Taverna. They remembered us from last year and were so pleased to see us. We are normally big eaters, but we ordered Tzatsiki with pitta bread and the Greek plate for two. It is a lie! It is not a plate, it is a huge bowl of 7 or 8 greek dishes with chips, pasta, and oven baked potatoes. Very hard to say which item was best, they were all superb. We failed to eat it all just because of the amount, but both of us ate more than we should just because it tasted so good. We will be back again later...
