Hydra experts - suggestion wanted
 
I'm looking for a nice restaurant to celebrate my son's 16th birthday coming July for a party of 16 people. I'm trying to make this day remaining in our family memories for a long time (especially my son's) but it's very difficult to get the info for Hydra restaurants. So far I'm finding good reviews about Christina and Manolis rooftop restaurant. Can anybody suggest other places with good cooking, perhaps local fresh and not frozen seafood, some music and just good atmosphere? Thank you in advance.

We stayed on Hydra last October but can't remember the names of where we ate. I would suggest asking the people where you are staying (i.e. the hotel or apartment owners) for a recommendation. They live on the island and will know all the good places.

I'm probably going to have to call some hotel there. We're actually doing the boat trip and staying on the boat. I'm afraid someone is going to direct me to his relative running not necessarily good restaurant. It happened to me a few times in Tarpon Springs, Florida where a lot of Greeks live. Looking for a trustworthy source :)

We stayed on a sailboat as well. We went to a place, whose name I don't know. If you are on your boat, looking toward the harbor and walk off to the right, go up the hill on the right past what is/was the disco. Up the hill on top is a lovely restaurant with lots of outside tables on the edge of the hillside. It has an amazing sunset.

It's called Sunset Restaurant:
