We had the pleasure of dining at To Kyma one evening during our stay in Parga. With two adults and one child at the table, we shared a starter and each chose a main course – and that was more than enough food for us all. The portions are generous, and the flavors truly reflect traditional Greek cooking at its best.
One of the reasons we chose To Kyma that evening was the way we were welcomed. Unlike many places along the promenade, the hosts here were respectful and low-key, giving us time and space to look through the menu in peace without any pressure. Their calm and humble approach stood out and made us feel at ease.
Our appetizer was a plate of steamed mussels in a sauce made with peppers, white wine, and mustard – and it was nothing short of spectacular. The mussels were tender and fresh, and the broth was rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. It was one of the culinary highlights of our walk along the seafront. Finding better mussels in Parga would be a challenge!
Moussaka: A classic Greek dish done well. The portion was very generous, and while it had a bit more potato than expected, the taste was comforting and well-rounded. Perfect for those looking to try something truly local. Lamb knuckle baked in the oven with honey and potatoes: This dish stood out. The lamb was beautifully cooked – fall-off-the-bone tender – with simple, clean flavors that let the quality of the ingredients shine. If you’re Norwegian and love lamb (especially dishes like fårikål), this will feel both familiar and special. Chicken schnitzel: A hit with our young one! Crispy, golden, and satisfying – exactly what you’d hope for in a family-friendly dish.
The servers were friendly and welcoming, always with a smile, even if they seemed a little rushed when things got busy. Understandable, given the restaurant’s location right on the bustling promenade. Despite that, they maintained a pleasant attitude throughout.
To Kyma offers more than just a meal – it’s a taste of genuine Greek hospitality and home-style cooking. We only wish we had more time to explore the rest of the menu. If you’re dining along the Parga waterfront, To Kyma is absolutely...
Read moreI expected more out of a Kyma restoran on main pedestrian stroll, but it was disappointing 😞. Sword fish was dry and tasted like BBQ, small portion with no side dish ( there was one peace of grilled paprika and 2 pieces of zucchini), 18€ - ooooverpriced. Kids had chicken sulvaki with few potatos, it was just ok. Also we had seabas, it was fille with some souce...not bad. After all, service was so so, eyes rolled, we waited for our dishes long time, got a wrong water; not comming back ever. Not recommended, have some gyros at the corner,...
Read moreService staff was very friendly and helpfull but please fire the chef! The tzatziki was a disgrace: a bit yellowish, didn’t look fresh, much oil on top, didn’t have any cucumber in it and tasted like old garlic. The Greek salad we ordered was ok but the main dish shrimps with greens and yoghurt dip didn’t have the yoghurt dip and the greens tasted bitter. We have been coming to Greece for many years but have never...
