Unfortunately, my experience with Sale e Pepe was very disappointing—not because of the food, but because of the behavior of the staff, particularly one Italian server who made my time there deeply uncomfortable.
As a solo female traveler, I expected to enjoy a relaxed and respectful atmosphere, but instead encountered behavior that was highly inappropriate and unprofessional. One of the servers—an Italian man—was not only rude during service, but also became intrusive and disrespectful outside of his work duties. He knocked on my door in the middle of the night and persistently pushed to meet up, making me feel unsafe. His behavior crossed personal boundaries, and he seemed to be dealing with personal issues or emotional instability, which he projected onto guests.

Read moreOur visit to this Italian restaurant in the center of Mykonos provided us with an average dining experience. Situated amidst the bustling streets of the town center, the restaurant offered a convenient location for a casual meal. The ambiance was lively and welcoming, with a cozy interior and a bustling outdoor seating area perfect for people-watching and live music.

With improvements in food consistency and service efficiency, it has the potential to offer a more memorable dining experience for visitors to the vibrant island. We will...
Read moreA Must-Visit Gem in Mykonos Near Fabrika – Outstanding Mediterranean Cuisine
I had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic restaurant in Mykonos, just a short stroll from Fabrika, on two separate occasions—and both visits were nothing short of exceptional. The first time, I tried the steak, which was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented. On my second visit, I went for the seafood pasta, and it truly exceeded my expectations. Fresh, rich in Mediterranean flavors, and brimming with high-quality seafood—it was a dish I’ll remember.
What really sets this place apart, aside from the incredible food, is the service. The staff is not only professional but genuinely warm and welcoming. The owner is frequently present and engages with guests in a way that makes you feel like a valued part of the experience.
