The Cliff Lolantonis — Restaurant in Paros Municipality

The Cliff at Lolantonis exceeded all expectations! The location is absolutely breathtaking - perched perfectly above the pristine Lolantonis Beach with panoramic views of the crystal-clear Aegean waters. It’s one of those spots where you find yourself constantly taking photos because the scenery is so stunning. The menu showcases fresh, local Parian ingredients beautifully. Every dish we tried was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with authentic Greek flavors. The presentation was elegant but not pretentious, and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. The seafood was particularly outstanding - clearly caught locally and prepared with care. What really sets this place apart is the atmosphere. It strikes the perfect balance between sophisticated dining and relaxed island vibes. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations and making us feel genuinely welcomed. After dinner, we spent time at the beach bar below, which was the perfect way to end the evening. Sipping cocktails while listening to the gentle waves and watching the sunset was pure magic. This is definitely a must-visit when in Paros. Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner or just want to experience one of the most beautiful dining locations on the island, The Cliff delivers on every level. We’re already planning our return visit! Highly recommended for anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience in a truly...

Very rude people.

My friend and I drove across the island to have lunch there.

When we showed up, we were greeted right away by a guy who was demanding to know if we were going to buy a coffee because we were apparently parking in their parking lot. (It was a public space.

And then when we told him we were there to have lunch, his attitude changed.

Once we were I the restaurant, which was less than half filled, we were met by an indignant man who couldn’t believe we showed up without a reservation only to be told we couldn’t be seated until 2. (It was 12:45)

I have found that only on the Island of Paros do you need a reservation. Coincidentally, this island is a VERY popular destination with French people, who go make reservations 8 months before their vacation. (This was reported to me by a few restaurant owners.) the irony is that many of these French people don’t even show up.

So we went to the beach deciding to skip lunch. We hung out for about an hour and as we returned to the car, while passing the restaurant, it was more empty than it was when we tried to get a table.

The food might be good, but with this kind of indignant attitude towards potential paying guests, I would never go back there again.

I know that your restaurant gets full with reservations. It would be smart for these businesses to say they don’t take reservations and only offer first come...

The Cliff

Confession. I'm not a huge fan of 'organised' beach clubs. Some seem to try too hard. Others are overpriced or ugly. They stick out like a sore thumb. No such problems at The Cliff. Nestled stylishly into one corner of Lolantonis Beach in the south of Paros, The beach and The Cliff are sheltered from the worst of the Meltemi winds - which can blow from May to September in these parts. Free car parking - they try to charge you at some places! Maria in the kitchen does an amazing job of mixing Greek and Middle Eastern flavours. Delicious. Poli nostimo! Some of the very best food we ate on Paros. Different. The bar and restaraunt are stylishly dressed and finished. A cool vibe. The sea here is crystal clear and perfect to swim and snorkel in. A dozen shades of blue and green. Sandy beach. All this with live DJs from Athens who avoid blasting the music at you - as they do aggressively at 194 decibels at the nearby Barbarossa. There is a refreshing lack of those dreadful saccharin Bossanova cover versions that pass for summer 'music'. Very comfortable, luxury, wide sunbeds set back off the beach. All this overseen by the knowledgeable and congenial Ilas - the perfect host. No matter if the Etesian wind still blows or has taken a day off - we will return....
