KAVOUROTRYPA
Read moreTucked away in the charmless Zakaki district, the "Crab Hole" (Καβουροτρυπα) lives up to its name. Admittedly, there's no sea view, but the sea is definitely there, in the plates. A simple decor, beautiful white tablecloths and a courteous welcome. You're invited to choose your fish in the kitchen. A few mezzés to tide you over (fresh salad, octopus in ink and oil...) and the fish arrives: grilled or fried, it's perfect, just served with a drizzle of lemon, greens and very good crispy fries.
PIER ONE CAFE RESTO BAR
Read moreHoused in a cubic steel and glass structure on a pier in the old port, this restaurant is best known for its sea views. It's also a good address for breakfast or brunch: French toast, scrambled eggs, croque-madame, poached egg with avocado... The rest of the menu is very international: sushi and Japanese specialties, bao buns, pasta and Italian dishes, etc. Next door, The Steak House restaurant also enjoys beautiful views and offers French oysters and American-style grills (€30-50/person).
