Nice food but the owner was rude and repeatedly made us feel awkward for using greek we'd been taught by locals as basic but friendly and polite ways of asking for things. Asked for the bill in English as he'd been unhappy with our previous use of Greek.. At which point he refused to give it to us unless we asked in Greek, we explained we'd asked in English as he wasn't happy with our Greek, he said he was joking before..

We’ve happily returned here every year for about four years now. Highly...
Read moreThis is the best taverna in Stegna, the food and service are excellent!!! We went there everyday for 14 days and tried nearly the whole menu.

I myself have eaten many places in Stegna, but Pirofani taverna is absolutely the best!! The food looks beautiful and tastes lovely and not at all expensive for what you get. Thank you for making our food experience perfect!! We will be back in...
