Came for the sausage and pork skewers &mdash; real good, smoky and juicy. Tzatziki with warm bread was the right call. Place was busy but worth it.

The owner sat down and translated the whole Greek menu for us. Felt proper personal, like eating at someone&#39;s home. Food was solid too.

Good cappuccino and the place is nice for a quick stop. Got a bit crowded when I was there, but the price was fair for what you get.

The lemon chicken really stood out&mdash;so tender and fragrant, I kept going back for more. Portion was generous too, which I didn&rsquo;t expect. Menu&rsquo;s got enough variety that I&rsquo;m already thinking about trying the souvlaki next time. Prices felt fair for what you get. Nothing fancy, but solid.

The grilled octopus was spot on, tender and smoky. Pool area&#39;s a nice spot to chill with a beer after. Short walk to the beach, which helps.

Came back three times during our stay. Anna at the front desk remembered our room number every time&mdash;that kind of attention is hard to find. Service was quick and efficient. Would&#39;ve liked a bit more variety at breakfast, but overall a solid stay.

Bill was split without any fuss&mdash;staff handled it well. Place felt welcoming from the moment we walked in. Nothing fancy, but solid service when it mattered. Good enough for a quick meal if you&#39;re in the area.

Been coming here for a while now. The sorbet&#39;s still as good as the first time I tried it. Always consistent, that&#39;s why I keep coming back.

The baklava here had that perfect honey-soaked crunch, not too sweet. I only tried that and a coffee, so can&#39;t speak for the rest. The portion was decent for the price, though I&#39;ve had better in Athens. It did the job for a mid-afternoon sugar fix. Nothing fancy, but the flavor was solid.

The chicken burger was simple but hit the spot. Nothing fancy, just solid fast food done right. Prices are fair too. Our order came out quick, maybe 5-10 minutes tops. Place has that no-frills vibe I kinda like. Good enough for a casual bite when you don&#39;t wanna overthink it.

Two sunbeds for 7 euros and the food was solid. Wine leaves were the highlight, local beer did the job too. Fair price for what you get.

Stopped by for a quick coffee and a bite. The espresso was solid, and I grabbed a snack that hit the spot. Prices are fair for what you get. Not a bad spot if you&#39;re in the area and need a caffeine fix. Wish they had a better wine list though, would&#39;ve paired nicely with the food.

Tucked near the church, easy to walk past. Quiet when we went. Food was solid though. Pasta done right, sauce had real depth. Not fancy, just good. Price fair for what you get. Would go back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Stopped by for lunch and honestly the place looks way better than I expected. Walls full of colorful art, kinda like a mini gallery. Even the bathroom had this foot pedal thing for flushing which I&#39;ve never seen before. Food was decent but the vibe alone made it worth it.

Stopped by for a late lunch near the water. Tuna tartare was the standout &mdash; fresh, light, exactly what I needed. Waiter pointed me to it actually, knew what he was talking about. Place has a chill vibe, nothing fancy but comfortable. Wouldn&#39;t mind coming back if I&#39;m in the area again.

The moussaka here is proper Cretan style, really rich and comforting. Great spot to bring a group of friends for a relaxed dinner 🍆

The sushi was fresh, no complaints there. The mushroom risotto though, that&rsquo;s the dish I&rsquo;d come back for. Portion size was decent for the price, which honestly surprised me given the sea view location. Place looks fancier than what you actually pay. Staff left us alone mostly, which I liked. Just wish the tables weren&rsquo;t so close together.
