Perched on the cusp of Megas Lakkos Beach, with a garden terrace running to the shore, you couldn't get much closer to the water. The seafood is excellent, though demand often curtails the menu, so it pays to get there early. The monkfish tail wrapped in guanciale (Italian cured meat) is a particular delight.
Garden terrace views gazing out to Xi Beach and across to the island of Vardiani offer a feast for the eyes. The menu is no less satisfying, with some of the best boat-fresh shrimp you'll ever savor. The cocktails here are also some of the best on the peninsula.
