The best Greek restaurants Greece

Mikro Karavi means "little boat" in Greek, a real hidden culinary treasure of Tinos. Once in the old port, you can recognize the entrance by a sign depicting a small white boat on a dark green background, hanging above the tiny porch. Inside, Greek and international cuisine is served in a green garden. You can enjoy fish, pasta, creative meat dishes, salads and homemade desserts. You will find mainly locals in this quiet, relaxing, fresh place, offering new Greek cuisine.

The restaurant's name means "the president's place": indeed, Theodoros' father was mayor of the village of Ano Mera. Offering authentic Myconian cuisine, the dishes are simple and the quality of the many local products used is all the more evident. Choose from pasta, grilled meats or the President's burger, which we highly recommend sitting on the terrace in the charming, lively village square of Ano Mera, after a day in tumultuous Chora or before another wild night in the south of the island.

This family-run tavern, located on the waterfront, offers many seafood specialties. Housed since 1992 in an old stone house, it offers fish caught on the same day in the bay of Kissamos and in the Libyan sea by fishermen who are friends of the family. The ingredients are fresh as well, as the meat comes directly from the shepherds and farmers living above the bay. The service is friendly and the terrace is pleasant. Ask for the menu for the price per kilo of fresh fish.

One of Corfu's most traditional restaurants, with a loyal local clientele and fast service. In the old town, behind Liston, this restaurant has been in existence since 1932. Greek and Mediterranean cuisine: hot and cold mezzes, specialties, pasta and desserts. Everything is homemade, everything is very good, the presentation of the dishes is original and the service is meticulous. Not to be outdone, the location exudes a certain elegance and romantic charm in this busy, bustling street. Don't hesitate to talk to Periklis, the owner: what a character!

4 km from Hania, in the direction of Kastelli, the regional road leads directly to the village of Kato Daratso and to Dopo, an establishment whose owners know that the setting and atmosphere are as important as the quality of the food. Modern decor with vintage touches, flowery plots inside, impeccable cleanliness and service, a warm welcome and a menu that is both faithful to the Cretan tradition and innovative. Among the delicious dishes, we recommend the ofto (Cretan mechoui), the homemade pasta, the chickpea salad. A very good address.

To Adespoto literally means "in the vagabond's house". Located in a beautiful garden, it is a very romantic place that combines stone, wood, an abundance of plants, flowers and the sound of guitars. Here the best musicians of the region come together to enthusiastically play improvised acoustic music. To accompany the live music, enjoy vegetarian dishes, Greek and Cretan dishes of the day with a good local wine. Everything is fresh and the atmosphere is warm, for a successful evening.

An excellent fish and seafood restaurant. There's no menu. But if you don't know what to choose, the owner will take you into the kitchen to show you his fresh catch of the day. We really appreciate this typical fish tavern where Corfiotes love to come and sit down, even on weekends during the winter... Facing the sea, in an idyllic setting, the owner is very friendly. Calamari, lobster, mussels, salads and spaghetti with shellfish, among others, are also on the menu. A local address not to be missed!

A French-speaking address where Vassilis and Christine will serve you a family cuisine and speak to you with passion about the beautiful mountains that surround them. One of the best restaurants in the village. If you have a big appetite, opt for the gastronomic menu to discover many Cretan specialties. Among the dishes on offer: courgette flowers stuffed with rice, artichokes with fennel, lamb with fine herbs... There are also local products to bring back: honey, olive oil, wine... Library with books in French and road maps.

Let's share here a very good discovery, especially at the time of a big hunger, at the end of the Akrotiri Lighthouse road (Faros). Perfect, this family tavern offers an authentic, classic and very successful Greek cuisine. The ingredients are fresh and the fish is the catch of the day, unlike many restaurants in Fira. Moreover, the setting is particularly pleasant with a large terrace and a breathtaking view of the entire Caldeira. To top it all off, the prices on offer are particularly affordable.

Lemonokipos has been a family-run establishment since 2000, offering creative and refined Mediterranean and international cuisine. This restaurant offers a total experience under the freshness of the lemon trees whether it is for a good coffee, a good cocktail or a good meal. The desserts are not to be outdone, just excellent! In addition, the quiet and large square offers an ideal playground for your children. Pleasant and attentive service. A good address, often full, but which remains, somehow, a quiet place!

The Fifty is the new name of 50/50, an establishment that for more than 12 years welcomed its clientele on 1860 Street. It is an allday café-restaurant that attracts the young people of the city. The food is good and the prices are reasonable. If you don't feel like eating, just have a coffee, a glass of ouzo or raki, it will leave you with a pleasant memory. Otherwise, late at night, especially on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, there is a DJ atmosphere or live Cretan and traditional music.
