The beef stew with okra was really good, came out hot from the oven and felt like something homemade. The place is family-run, which gives it a nicer vibe than the touristy spots along the port. I sat near the window and the harbor view was a pleasant bonus. Just wish the service was a bit quicker, but the food made up for it.

The saganaki mussels were the highlight&mdash;cooked in a clay pot, really fresh. Fried shrimp and grilled eggplant were fine too. Portions felt fair for the price. Left full and happy.

The grilled sea bass was the only thing that mattered to me. Cooked right, crispy skin, moist inside. Ate it with some lemon and that was it. Portion could be bigger for the price, but the taste made up for it. I&#39;d come back just for that dish.

The shrimp linguine was decent but the grilled octopus really stood out. Cooked right, smoky, not rubbery. Place was busy but we got a table quick. Staff pointed us to a local beach after dinner, which was a nice touch. Would come back for that octopus again.

The homemade desserts and fresh plum juice are the standouts here. The interior is like a beautiful stone cave with a modern touch, and the little shop with local art adds to the charm.

The souffle was really good, light and fluffy. Prices are a bit steep for what you get though. Nice vibe inside, but I&#39;m not sure it&#39;s worth the splurge every time.

The 14-dish starter platter is a solid intro to Albanian food. Everything tasted fresh, and the waiter knew the menu well enough to point us in the right direction.

Cozy spot with nice Asian decor, really chill for hanging out with friends. Food tasted fresh and the staff were friendly. Wish we had more space between tables though, felt a bit tight.

The bubble waffle with Bueno and Nutella cream was the reason I came. Got it fresh, still warm, crispy on the edges. The filling was generous, not just a tiny smear. Honestly, that was the whole meal for me. Couldn&#39;t care less about anything else on the menu. Just that waffle.

Been coming here for a while now. Breakfast still hits the spot&mdash;omelette&#39;s light, petulas come out hot and crispy with honey. Never disappoints.

Came for a drink, stayed way longer than planned. Pool area is right there and you can walk straight into the ocean, which is pretty rare for this part of town. Cocktail was solid, nothing fancy but made properly. Place was a bit quiet for a Saturday but that worked for me. Wouldn&#39;t mind coming back just for the view.

The grilled piglet was the star&mdash;tender, smoky, just like homemade. They even mashed veggies for our baby, no extra charge.

Great spot right on the pier. Sunset was unreal. Seafood linguine was solid, fish tasted properly fresh. Staff friendly enough.

The terrace view over the promenade is the main reason to come here. Cocktails were solid, around 8-9 euros, and the sea breeze made it easy to stay for another round. Staff let us take our time too.

Service was quick and the staff actually seemed happy to help. Place felt clean and cozy, easy to just sit and chill for a bit. Nothing fancy but solid for a casual bite.

The hot chocolate was thick and rich, perfect after walking the old town. Cake was decent, nothing crazy. Staff let me sit and rest for a while.

The crepes were pretty good and the prices are fair for what you get. Decent spot if you&#39;re nearby and want something quick.

Came for the view, honestly didn&rsquo;t expect much from the food. Grilled fish in lemon and wine sauce was actually solid. Staff left us alone mostly, which I liked. Place gets busy around sunset, so grab a seat early if you can.

Been coming here for a while now, and the homemade fries still get me every time. Had them again last week with a beachside lunch, and they were just as good as the first visit. Staff also adjusted a dish for my friend&#39;s diet without making it a big deal. Sunbeds were free since we ordered food, so that&#39;s a solid plus.
