Gitonia Mezedokafenes — Restaurant in Municipality of Rhodes

Very very friendly staff. Stunning restaurant and location. Our fault, (or rather mine) I didn’t realise it was a Meze place (even though it turns out it’s in the name of the business 😂) so upon ordering we struggled to make a complete ‘meal’. I even suggested that we should have ordered several different dishes but the family didn’t want to do that. (Fear of sharing) It would have been nice if the staff informed us of how it works regarding meze for some of us idiots out there.

We only stopped for water from a nearby market and thankfully, fate had other plans! This hidden gem turned our first day from a tired drag into a refreshed, happy evening.
