Solid food, right by the sea. Had the grilled fish and some local wine by the litre&mdash;good stuff. Place has been around forever, so it gets busy. Book ahead, seriously. Service was a bit rushed but fine.

The stuffed eggplant from the wood oven was the star &mdash; smoky, soft, really good. Music was chill too, not too loud. Just a relaxed spot.

The tiramisu was seriously good&mdash;light, creamy, not too sweet. Probably one of the best I&#39;ve had in a while. Worth saving room for.

Decent spot for a casual meal. We shared a few dishes and the portions were generous, everything tasted fresh. The courtyard is pretty cute. They brought out complimentary dessert and raki at the end, which was a nice touch. Staff were polite too. Only thing is it got a bit busy later, but fine overall.

The drinks were definitely the highlight &mdash; cocktails came out fast and well-made. Food was decent but service felt a bit rushed, like they wanted us out quickly.

The lamb chops were properly grilled, juicy inside with that charred edge. Beef souvlaki pita also solid, lots of meat stuffed in there. Portions are generous for the price, honestly. Croquettes were meh, a bit dry, but I didn&#39;t really care by that point. Left full and happy.

Went twice in one week&mdash;the shrimp saganaki was the reason. Fresh, juicy, that tomato sauce really soaked in. Second time tried the lamb, also solid. Staff pointed us to a few meze picks we wouldn&#39;t have noticed otherwise. Place gets busy but it&#39;s worth it.

Stopped by late afternoon, place had a nice buzz. Shared the hummus and tuna tartare, mussels were decent too. Went for the full rack of ribs after, sea bass looked good on the other plate. Portions are big, no joke. They even dropped off a chocolate cake with pistachio ice cream on the house. Solid spot.

Gyros were spot on, meat was juicy and well seasoned. Quick service too, which I always appreciate. Place was busy but worth the short wait.

Decent spot right on the beach. Service was quick and the staff friendly. Good enough for a casual lunch stop.

Stopped here for a casual dinner with a couple of friends and honestly the vibe was perfect for that. We grabbed the stuffed vine leaves and veggie pasta &mdash; both were super fresh and looked really nice on the plate. Place is on a quieter street so not chaotic at all. Would come back if I&rsquo;m in the area again 😊

The Greek salad here hit different. Feta was proper, olives actually tasted like they came from somewhere real. Tomatoes were ripe, not those sad pale ones. Simple stuff done right. Place was busy but I got a table quick. Would come back just for that salad again.

Stopped by for breakfast and honestly the omelette was the highlight 🍳 Coffee was solid too. Got a bit loud with traffic outside but we were too busy chatting to care. Staff were super nice about us taking our time. Good spot if you&#39;re hanging with friends and not in a rush.

The pasta here was properly seasoned, not shy with the salt or the garlic. Portions are big, I couldn&#39;t finish mine. Right by the beach so you get that breeze while you eat. Only thing is it gets a bit busy around sunset, but that&#39;s on me for showing up late.

Grilled souvlaki right off the barbecue was spot on. Prices fair for being literally on the sand. Service was a bit slow but the vibe made up for it.

The Greek salad was so fresh, really zingy. I loved the tomatoes and feta together. Seafood stew had nice texture too, though the back room felt a bit quiet.

The wine cart got me&mdash;they let you taste before picking. Portions were big and the food hit the spot. That old town street does the rest.

The mushroom orzo was a nice surprise &mdash; glad they label the vegan options clearly. Charming spot, though the local cats definitely steal the show 😄

Been coming here for years and the food never drops in quality. Last time they let us order smaller portions to try extra dishes, which I still appreciate. That olive oil they serve is something else.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Pizza was solid, came out hot from the wood-fired oven. Place has a chill vibe, fine for a fast bite. Service was polite but a bit slow &mdash; had to wait longer than I hoped. Still, decent spot if you&#39;re not in a huge rush.

Stopped by for a quick bite around 2pm. Greek salad was fresh, bread still warm. Portions are solid for the price. They even threw in some free fruit and raki at the end. No complaints, just a decent casual spot. Would hit it again if I&#39;m in the area.
