Valentina's Place — Restaurant in Municipality of Rhodes

🌅 Valentina’s Place – The Heart of Ialysos 🌅 From the moment you find a spot under the umbrellas and feel the sea breeze, you know you’re in a special place.

⸻

🍽️ Food That Enchants You • Gyros and pita that are simply out of this world – almost everyone agrees these are the best gyros in Rhodes. • Every dish is absolutely perfect, bursting with fresh flavors and cooked to perfection. • Huge portions, honest prices: feta, salads, smoothies, and colossal omelette hot-dogs! “Huge portions,” “hard to finish,” “most value for your money on the whole island.”

⸻

🍹 Cocktails That Impress • The cocktails here are incredible – expertly crafted, refreshing, and the perfect complement to your meal and the beach vibe.

⸻

🏖️ Location & Atmosphere Right on the beach, in front of the crystal-clear waters of Ialysos: breathtaking sunsets, cool breeze, and the gentle sound of the waves. The most laid-back experience: the music never overwhelms but sets the perfect mood for coffee, beer, or a cocktail by the sea.

⸻

🤗 Friendly People and Family Vibes • Valentina’s family and team welcome you with love and smiles. • Customers turn into friends: “We ate here almost daily for 2 weeks.”

⭐ What Makes It Special Authentic Greek street food at its finest – the gyros smell like tradition, not mass production. Value for money that’s rare on Greek islands – if you can’t finish your plate, you don’t eat here often. Beach + sunset + welcoming staff = an experience, not just a meal.

🥇 The Ultimate Recommendation If you visit Rhodes – especially if you stay or pass through Ixia/Ialysos – Valentina’s Place isn’t just an option. It’s a must. Seek genuine flavor, simplicity, majestic sunsets, and the beach. You’ll leave feeling “full” – both in your belly...

We ordered today for €30. It took us 30 minutes to finish eating, after what felt like another 15 minutes we were "asked" to leave because there were apparently other guests waiting for a seat (at that point there was 1 table still free). And please don't use your small space as an excuse. It should never be the case that well-paying customers are asked to leave after a maximum of an hour if at the same time 90% of the main customers have been sipping a beer/cocktail/soft drink for over an hour. I've never experienced anything like that in Germany and have left less money and stayed longer in the restaurant. If you can't even enjoy your time on vacation without being "kicked out", then something is wrong. Food was delicious but due to the lack of hospitality I will never spend a cent here again, I would rather spend my money at McDonalds and I hate McDonalds more than anything and the last time I ate there was as a child. Impudence, absolute no-go!

Answer to the owner: That's exactly the answer I expected: No hospitality and an eye on the "big" money, have fun and continue to be successful with your concept.

Just for info: A beach umbrella with 2 loungers costs between €10-15 for the whole day if you really want to make that comparison I recommend everyone not to eat there if you want to have a good and...

What is there not to like about Valentina’s place? It’s located directly on the beach front.During the day you can eat and watch the calm blue waves during the day; and as the evening comes to a close the drop of the sun in the distance leaves you feeling fulfilled and complete. Not only is the location magnificent but the food is something that has never graced my taste buds before. The first bite into the chicken pita and chicken burger honestly stunned me. Never have I ever had such tender, tasteful and terrific food in places abroad like this. I’m surprised there is still stock left after how many times I had to get the same addictive and succulent taste over and over again. At Valentina’s place they treat you like you’re the only person in the world. The staff are all so kind taking such joy in what they do and who they speak to. On numerous occasions we were given fruit bowls and sweet treats out of the kindness of Valentina showing her care and generosity to the people she serves. The only thing I would say that needs to change is that the staff at Valentinas place need a weeks holiday at least for the continues work and hours they put in. Thank you for the best...
