Grabbed a gyros and a beer before the ferry. Quick, cheap, and hit the spot. Pistachios were a nice touch too.

The baklava here is superb, with different varieties baked fresh daily. The staff even gave us some on our last day, which was a sweet touch.

Stayed a few nights and really liked the homely vibe. The owners are warm, staff actually remember you. Food was good&mdash;fresh fish stood out, simple and clean. Cocktails were fine too. Maybe not the most polished place, but it felt genuine. I&rsquo;d come back for the seafood alone. 🐟

The giouvetsi here is solid. Orzo soaked up the tomato sauce just right, lamb fell off the bone. No fuss, just good home-style cooking. Prices are fair for what you get. I&rsquo;d eat that again.

We sat outside in the courtyard, flowers everywhere, quiet even though the street was busy. The bougiourdi was the star &ndash; hot, oily, perfect with bread. Cheese pie was good too, flaky and salty. Staff let us take our time, no rush at all. Just wish the plates were a bit bigger for the price. Nice spot to slow down for an hour.

The pita wraps here are cheap and tasty, and they even take card for a single gyros. The lady at the front was helpful too.

Stopped by for a full English breakfast and honestly it hit the spot&mdash;two eggs, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, plus fresh orange juice and coffee. The view over the water is a nice bonus. Wish the toast came with more butter, but that&#39;s a small thing.

The beach view from the sunbeds is honestly the main reason to stop here. Tables are close enough to the water that you can hear the waves while you eat. Prices felt fair for what you get. Owner came by to check if everything was okay, which was nice. Nothing fancy, just a solid spot to chill and eat.

Stopped by for a quick bite. Gyros were solid, lachmachun hit the spot too. Prices fair for what you get. Service was fast, which is all I really ask for at lunch. Place was a bit busy but I got my food and got out. Good enough for a midday stop.

Tucked off the main walkway near the water, easy to miss. Food&#39;s the pre-cooked style, but done well and priced fair. We asked for a custom salad, no fuss, they just made it happen. Solid spot for a quick lunch, just note they shut down at 5. Nothing fancy, but it works.

Stopped here after wandering around the island. Got two mains and a couple of beers, came to 34 euros which felt fair. The lamb was cooked properly, not dry at all. Terrace view is something else while you eat. Only thing is the service took a bit, but I wasn&#39;t in a hurry anyway.

The bay view really does most of the work here. Food was solid, came out quick, and the price felt fair for what you get. Sat by the window and just watched the water for a while. Nothing fancy, but sometimes that&#39;s enough.

Great spot for a relaxed lunch&mdash;you can even take a quick swim while waiting for your food. The zucchini patties were a standout.

The galaktompoureko here is seriously good&mdash;rich and creamy, just the way I like it. The homemade lemonade was a nice touch too.

Stopped by for lunch, got the fresh fish and Greek salad. Fish was properly grilled, salad had a good chunk of feta. Staff were friendly, didn&#39;t rush us. Solid little spot if you&#39;re in Porto Heli. Nothing fancy, just decent food.

Stopped by for a drink the other night. Bartender was friendly, didn&#39;t rush us. Prices are fair for the area, that&#39;s for sure. Decent selection of drinks too. Place has a relaxed feel, nothing fancy but comfortable. Good spot if you just want a low-key evening without the noise.
