From Our Guests

Our experience was lovely! We were seated without a reservation straight away, had an amazing view & our waiter was very friendly and efficient. The food was very tasty and huge portion sizes, very good value for money! As an added bonus we loved the music in here- slowed down versions of the originals & felt romantic

I’ve eaten a lot of Mediterranean food while traveling, and this place was a great find. The fish was super fresh and really well cooked. Everything tasted simple and good. The staff were friendly, and the view was beautiful — it really added to the whole experience. Would definitely go back.

This restaurant is really right in front of the beach. We were seated at the second floor and you can really see the whole view of the stunning beach and it's really amazing. We ordered a mixed grill and it was really worth value of money, we were surprised how big the portions are. Everything is really good and this is highly recommended when you go to Paleokastrista beach in Corfu.

My friend and I went here for lunch and we had a great time, the waiters were super kind and polite and we thank them again for providing us with the Power bank they provided. Everything was really delicious, from the fish dish we ate to the dessert. If we ever come back we will definitely come back to eat here.
