The food at Dili Dili is fantastic... reasonably priced, mixture of classic gyros and kebab/cafe food, as well as traditional Greek family dishes like spinach pie and moussaka, which can be made to order 48 hours in advance. But the real attraction is Giannis, the owner. This (amateur) comedian is the life and soul of the place. Not only is he hilarious, he speaks flawless English (plus other languages) and is extremely generous, bringing extra drinks and appetisers and refusing extra payment! In addition, Giannis will make anything off the menu if you give him a couple days notice... his mum pitches in to help with special dishes! He is also a whiz with food intolerances which was much appreciated! Highly recommend, we ended up hanging out with Giannis most evenings of our stay, great company...

Apaki, country sausage are a must to order. Homemade and charcoal grill with own herbs and spices! We also pre ordered moussaka and baklava. Tasted so authentic and simply blew our minds!
