Very kind and helpful owners on our first night on the island. Lovely starters, octopus in vinegar was very tender, aubergine dip was smooth and smokey, tsatziki was creamy and cooling.

The local wine by the kilo is good value and hits the spot under the Greek sun. Say hi to the cats and kittens...
