Taverna Leon — Restaurant in Municipality of Sithonia

⚠️ People who want to explore and go to different restaurants each time, should “avoid” this place 😁. Once you have a meal here you will never want to go to a different place, and all others will look like a joke. One of the best places for food in Sithonia. Although the ambient of the place is not something special everything else is. When we visited the place was crowded, we barely found a table. The place is really big and has large capacity. There were so many people that we thought that we will wait half an hour or even more to get our order. We were surprised when the waiter started bringing our orders one by one in just 5 minutes after ordering. There are A LOT of great people working here and they really work like ants 💪🏼 When the main dishes were ready and brought to us we had a new surprise shock. The portions are so large actually HUUUGE that one can be enough for 2 adults. And the food was very fresh and tasty. SOMETHING I HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE ANYWHERE ELSE 👏🏻 They really want the guests to be satisfied and don’t want to just get your money selling you false “luxury” feeling like most of the other places around . Here it’s all about the food and pleasure of the guests.

WHOEVER OWNS THIS PLACE REALLY KNOWS WHAT A GOOD RESTAURANT AND AWESOME SERVICE IS! 👏🏻 it would be a pleasure to meet the owner. Keep up...

The service was poor. We ordered shrimps in souce and roasted stuffed squid,greek salad, tzatziki salad and two beers. After a while a waiter brought fried calamary - squid with french fries ..when we told him we did not ordered that he tried to persuade us and was very determine to make us accept that other dish...but at the end he gave up, because we just didn't want it. It was not right and not very nice. In the mean time I got mine dish, shrimps in sauce, my husband waited quite a while for his squied..finally he got it..it was ok, but we somehow lost our apetite...then, when we wanted to pay...we called the waiter through his colleagues a couple of times but it took him quite some time to come, and he asked twice how we are going to pay and then again we waited, and waited.....and that was really annoying...and finally we payed ...and we will not come...

When you sit on old fame and turn quality into simply business. We decided to give it a try despite the not so appealing look, because of its reputation and the obvious fact it was crowded. So maybe there was a reason why after all. There wasn’t. We were given filthy menus with a dead, smashed fly on one of them. We ordered 4 dishes, they forgot one of them entirely. They brought the food, but not forks and knives, and napkins. The forks were from WW2 or earlier. I mean, tradition and country spirit is not exactly this. It’s good fresh food and hospitality and we got neither. The smoked mackerel - something so simple, was the hardest thing to cut ever. The fried gavros was like 10 to 12 pieces. The Greek salad was…oh, wait, we never got it. So if you like to rub shoulders with the people on the neighbouring table and eat cheap, this is your place. It...
