We came back here four times on our trip&mdash;the food just never got old. Loved the creative spins on traditional dishes. The free bread, raki, and little desserts were a nice touch too.

Fresh veggies straight from their own garden. Wild greens tasted like they were picked that morning. Manolis clearly puts real care into what he serves. Quick and honest spot for lunch.

The grilled octopus was spot on again &mdash; tender, smoky, just right. Been coming here for a while and it never disappoints.

Decent Greek food right by the water. Prices are fair and service was fine. Took a bit to get our plates, but the view made it easy to wait.

Lamb chops and pork belly were properly charred, juicy inside. No fancy stuff here, just solid grilling. Wish I could&#39;ve tried more but I was full.

The staff here are what make it worth coming back. Friendly, quick, and they even brought a free raki at the end. Food was solid and portions were big enough.

Been coming here for years, the portions never disappoint. House wine is decent too. Not fancy, but it&#39;s real Greek food without the tourist prices.

Been here three times now and the lamb kleftiko never disappoints. Still falls right off the bone. Portions are massive too, so skip the starter.

The sea view was the real star here. Sat by the window, watching the water while eating tzatziki &mdash; that dip was properly garlicky, just how I like it. Greek salad was fresh too. Mains were a bit hit or miss, mine came out lukewarm. Staff friendly enough about it. Would come back just for the view and starters, honestly.

Solid choice for traditional dishes. Food was tasty and prices fair. Got pretty loud when the crowd came in though&mdash;go early if you can.

The grilled sardines were really good, and the owner cooks everything herself&mdash;you can tell she cares. She even brought out a little dessert on the house, which was a nice touch.

The garden gets me every time&mdash;evenings with the lights and music are just lovely. Cocktails and desserts were on point again. Still my go-to spot in the old town.

Stopped by for a quick bite and grabbed the pork gyros. Portion was solid for the price, honestly didn&#39;t expect that much meat in there. Place gets busy around lunch but the line moves fast. Not fancy at all, just straightforward Greek street food done right. Would go back if I&#39;m in the area again.

The stuffed zucchini flowers with Cretan spices were the highlight. Also noticed they use a separate fryer for gluten-free fries. Grilled sea bream was fresh, properly cooked. Service was fine, nothing fancy.

Came for dinner around 8pm and the place was packed. Only two waiters running around, so yeah, we waited a while just to get our drinks. Food was decent though&mdash;nothing fancy, but it did the job. If you&#39;re not in a rush, it&#39;s fine. Just don&#39;t expect quick service when it&#39;s busy.

Stopped by just for a drink and ended up staying longer than planned. The spot is easy to find, right in the old town. Staff were genuinely nice, not the fake kind of friendly. Can&#39;t say much about the food since I only had a cocktail, but the vibe was chill enough to make me want to come back. Maybe next time I&#39;ll actually try something to eat.

Loved the daily special at the counter &mdash; got something I hadn&rsquo;t tried before and it felt properly homemade. No tourist prices either. Wish I lived closer, honestly.

Came back after four years and it still hits the same. The tzatziki is homemade, thick, and honestly the star of the plate. Onions were fresh and sharp, not overpowering. Portion felt a bit small for the price, but I didn&#39;t really care. Just happy it hasn&#39;t changed.

We ordered the red porgy, catch of the day, and it was really fresh. Flaky, simple, no fuss. Also had the dolmadakia and tiropitakia with honey&mdash;both were good, though the honey was a bit heavy for me. Service was nice, not rushed. I&#39;d go back just for the fish.
