For a change from the Greek culinary routine, a compatriot proposes to offer you some tricolored comfort. The sympathetic Sébouh, a former restaurant owner from Lyon, has finally settled down, to the delight of locals and travelers. It's a rotisserie, a sandwich shop and a restaurant all in one! The chicken comes from the north of Greece, served roasted or in an authentic baguette, the pastries are made early in the morning, the dishes are well prepared and the baklava (with a little Armenian twist) is one of the best on the island!

Elena and her sister took over from their parents in the family tavern! They share the days in the kitchen to offer their guests the same traditional recipes they prepare for their grandchildren: green beans in tomato sauce, tomatoes and peppers stuffed with rice, stuffed vine leaves, beetroot salad, lamb chops grilled over a wood fire. Several dishes based on shellfish and fresh fish on the menu as well. The covered terrace is nice, so you don't lose anything of what's going on in the village square.

Although this restaurant is not at all in the centre of Rethymnon, it is definitely worth venturing out into the countryside during your stay in the city.

After spending ten years in France in beautiful houses, 4-star hotels and other Relais & Châteaux with prestigious chefs, Nicolas Pelegrinis decided to return to the country. He has just taken over a nice establishment in Ano Mera where he proposes a very personal cuisine, 90% home-made and with seasonal products. On the menu: atypical dishes for Greece, such as his revisited bouillabaisse or his entrecote with pepper or Bearnaise sauce. All served with a very Greek generosity, in the plate as in the room.

Excellent setting with sunset on Katapola. Located in a narrow cross-cutting street, you will see the lime-filled stone building, where local specialities have been served there for 20 years at a mild price.

One of the best addresses on the island. " Liotrivi "is the former olive oil manufacturer.

In a narrow lane behind the town hall, Kounelas is the best fish tavern in Mykonos. We choose the sin fish of the day, before they take the direction of the kitchen. It's impossible to miss his very pleasant inner courtyard and assault above which a rainbow flag floats. It's a must for fish lovers.

A small, cosy and French-speaking bistro. It's nice, it's cool, you eat it, you drink it, it's good… you look at people, look at the sea, we're discussing the sea.

In the 1970s, it was home to the legendary Lagoudera club (also known as the Yachting club) frequented by the jet set of the time: Brigitte Bardot, Elizabeth Taylor, John Lennon, the Rolling Stones, Maria Callas, Onassis...
