Vigli Restaurant Platanias — Restaurant in Municipality of Platanias

Me and my girlfriend had a pretty unwelcoming experience at the Vigli restaurant. The staff was very ignorant from the start, placing us at a table with the worst view on the first floor. We were told that the roof with the best view was fully booked. But two minutes later another couple arrived, also without a reservation, but they happened to know someone who knew someone and lo and behold, they were told that if they wait two minutes a table upstairs will be available for them.

So that's our first impression - let's move on to the food and drinks. We ordered a bottle of red wine which was scorching hot. They must have given us a bottle that had been exposed to the sun for a whole day. Because I certainly didn't order Glückwine in the 30 degrees heat. We ordered a plate of grilled mixed meats. A mountain of meat arrived on top of some soggy fries with a very limited amount of Tzatsiki. No explanation from the waiter what kind of meets we'd been served. It was over all pretty dry.

This experience cost us 50 EUR. I would not recommend this tourist trap to anyone, in case you don't...

We went to this restaurant with very high expectations and I must say they were far exceeded! Breathtaking view of the beautiful Platanias as per the attached photos and magnificent welcome from the owner Kostas who welcomed us with great warmth making us feel at home even though we were in this ultra-luxury restaurant! Delicious food, we ranged from a garlic bread appetizer to an excellent boureki, the main course lamb chop and we toasted together with the excellent homemade raki! Highly recommended!

Very good service in this family owned restaurant. Father and son do a great service and sister does a killer pepper sauce in the kitchen. While all the other restaurants that we visited managed to overcook the meat these guys does a good job. Lamb chops was great, beef and pork steaks were great.

It's quite a walk uphill but worth every step. A fantastic sceanary, great food and services. This is a must when...
