GENESIS Restaurant — Restaurant in Municipality of Paxos

GENESIS Restaurant was overly expensive but, I suppose, you are paying for the view. A 4 star rating on here is over the top.

The service was good but the food lacked visual appeal. Two of the three dishes we ordered were presented with accoutrements of undressed shredded cabbage and carrot which felt dated, gross and a way to fill-up empty space on the plate.

The final dish, a cous cous salad, was also presented relatively crudely with a 'cube' of salad surrounded by oak lettuce and halved cherry tomatoes. A poor look, especially when paying 9€ for the pleasure. As well as this, the meal was, accompanied by the mandatory bread, but in our case, came to 0.5€ per slice, which was sliced last summer. Inedible.

The food tasted OK, but wasn't what was expected, certainly not for the price. Three [small] dishes and two tap beers came to 35€, something at another taverna wouldn't have cost more than 25€.

The view is nice, hence two stars, but I think food which doesn't leave you feeling a little...

I'd like to tell you about the waves lapping up against the shoreline, the sun kissing your cheeks without being too hot, and the liberal amounts of shade afforded by Genesis' over-sized umbrellas, but that'll have to wait.

A light hint of garlic wafts in the air as a combination of meze (shared plates) and market-fresh seafood are whipped up at your leisure. The grilled courgette and peppers are succulent, the dips - refreshing, and the wine - intriguingly good. Request a glass of the Antipaxi white, a dynamic, local specialty, and sip it alongside several kitchen-recommended tastes. You'll be in good hands when you...

Really rate this restaurant....it's away from the square and general hub bub of Gaios. Beautiful views across the water and in to the port ..The general feel of the restaurant is relaxed and friendly....Nothing is too much to ask here! Staff were very friendly, helpful and professional. Food was fantastic...sea food and presentation was great. A little bruschetta freebie and honey donuts at the end were delicious too! Wine and beer was a good price....We enjoyed the shrimp risotto and seafood linguine on our first night and then returned for sea bass and vegetable risotto and grilled shrimp on the second. Would thoroughly recommend a visit...great value for money and relaxed,...
