The best restaurants Nidri

Don't let its small name fool you. The Flisvos tavern ("The lapping of the waves"), has weathered its share of media storms on the port of Nidri. "I met Athina Onassis Roussel when she was thirteen", Dimitris, the owner, liked to tell us. As the photo on the wall attests, "She dined here with her father, Thierry Roussel, the first time she went to Skorpios, and it turned into a riot! What's left today is an honest menu and lots of old photos on the wall to savor too...

Situated at the entrance to the town from Lefkada, this establishment is ideally located on the seafront away from the hustle and bustle of the town centre or the port. Literally on the beach, this tavern offers fresh fish and lovingly cooked dishes. The specialities of the house are chicken with mushrooms, stuffed tomatoes and pastissio (pasta with bechamel sauce). The fish is also well cooked. The food and service are really good and the prices, in the end, are frankly more than reasonable.

The Vliho Yacht Club, in front of the marina, offers dishes and snacks at a fair price. If you are a bit fed up with typical Greek dishes, you can enjoy Indian style chicken tikka massala, shrimp risotto, or Mexican fajitas. The establishment has an extensive and succulent local wine list. From here you can also take a trip to one of the best sailing locations in the world. The staff was really very kind and helpful.
