Read moreFirst of all I wanna say that if you are looking for a quick bite or for something fast&cheap this is not the place for you.
It's more like a fine dinning place, almost à la carte. They are very attentive at your needs and they will try to cover every need you have.
I've spent my birthday in here and I was feeling really good, I enjoy, the sunset, the night and also the food.
In my opinion this restaurant could apply easily for a Michelin star as they are almost there.
Thasos, the guy responsible with the wine(the sommelier)was really nice and tell me about the island and if he read this review I wanna thank him again.
They let me enjoying my cigar and even offer me a cutter and a lighter.
So, the food is great, but as at every fine-dining restaurant they are not very large (as a contrast with the rest of the island).
I've start the meal with a fish-mousse, then I was delighted with a beef slow cooked for ~24h and I've finish the meal with some creme-broulle. Also I've enjoy a bottle of local wine and some desert wine from the house. Everything was delicious.
Food: great Drink: great taste, great variety Price: pretty high
I've paid ~100€ / 2 person Water: 3€ Wine: ~ 25€ Food: beef: 22€, sea food: 30€, creme...
Read moreOne of our top favourite places in Zakynthos! A friend recommended us to go to this restaurant and we couldn’t have been more lucky. We had an amazing view at the sea, great service and the food was more than excellent. We had the lobster and sea bass fillet which were presented in a very unique way. The food was extremely delicious. The atmosphere was very friendly. It was not too loud and not too overcrowded. Because we were there in June it was easy to make a reservation (I made it one or two days in advance). However, for the high season ( July, August) I would recommend to make your reservation well in advance. In all cases you have to try the sea food and fish dishes as well as the white chocolate and vanilla cream dessert called Paris-Brest. It’s really huge - one portion would be enough for two or even three people. The location of the restaurant is very convenient if you want to go afterwards clubbing. The bigger clubs are located at the same street in Zakynthos. Prices were reasonable, I would say the price-quality ratio was more than excellent. This would be the first restaurant we will visit again when we come back next time...
