Restaurant Sapienza — Restaurant in Municipality of Pylos and Nestor

We spent the day at Methoni beach and ate here for lunch and dinner.

Their lunch menu is all home made authentic Greek cuisine made that day, nothing from the grill that is only in the evening. We had a village salad large enough for two that included fresh tomatoes, Kalamata olives, green peppers, onion, feta cheese with EVOO and oregano. Also stuffed tomatoes, peppers and potatoes

For dinner we started with baked imame with plenty of seasonings, chuck tomatoes with EVOO. For the main course grilled labraki with a pureed beet salad.

Both lunch and dinner were moderately priced given the area. The building and bathrooms are immaculate cleaned and maintained. Beside the food what makes this place outstanding is the artwork displayed throughout not only in the dining area...

Great in every way! Nicely decorated restaurant, wonderful owners and fresh, authentic food. Highly recommend. We got there at 6 p.m. (they usually close between 4 and 6 pm). At 6 p.m. they start the grill in a little cabin adjacent to the restaurant. We were led into the kitchen where we could choose from about 10 to 12 appetizing dishes freshly prepared by a cute Greek grandma that morning. We picked a variety of vegetables, stewed meats, Greek pasta and potatoes. Everything was delicious. Our personal favorites were the gigantes beans and the rice-stuffed tomatoes. After the meal they offered us free small ice creams. We would go there again!! For three people with appetizers, main dish, drinks, wine 500ml and espressos, we spent less...

I loved this place and so did the other three people who dined with me.

This restaurant really does serve some home cooked goodness. In particular their tzatziki is outstanding, not the flavourless nonsense that passes for tzatziki in a lot of Greek restaurants. This stuff has garlicy bite (as it should).

We had a variety of dishes, salads and grilled meat, and all were great. However, some of the vegetarian starter type dishes were really standout (wish I could remember their names)

Apart from the food, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the surroundings are relaxing, quiet and pretty.

You are even encouraged to go into the kitchen to help pick out your meal. Great for people not familiar with...
