About

Perfectly situated right on the lively waterfront of Kamares Harbour, Araxovoli is a highly regarded traditional fish tavern that offers a true taste of Sifnos island’s rich maritime heritage. The restaurant boasts a picturesque, direct view of the sea and the bustling port, creating an inviting and authentic Mediterranean atmosphere that transitions beautifully from a sunny lunch spot to a breezy evening dining destination.

What truly sets this family-run tavern apart is its direct connection to the sea; the owner operates his own fishing boat, ensuring that the kitchen is supplied daily with the freshest local catch. The menu features an array of beautifully prepared seafood, including fresh sea bream, squid, and parrot fish, alongside traditional Sifnian specialties like chickpea soup and mastelo. With generous portions, fair pricing, and excellent flavors, Araxovoli makes a waterside table here highly recommended for seafood enthusiasts visiting the island.

We got off the ferry for a layover and so happy to find this place. The service was excellent and the food was even more excellent. Ordered the anchovies, sardines, shrimp spaghetti (perfect tagliatelle), cooked greens, beer, wine and the best of all..the chickpea soup. Marianthi was our server and she explained everything on the menu. Rob n Michelle. Only hiccup was we sat where the line of cars were waiting for the next boat..but it was quick.

Nice tavern. They had fresh Kolochtipes which is quite rare to find and we had them with a delicious pasta.

We ate here with a group of friends and we couldn't be happier with our choice! The food was astronomically good, and worth every penny. For recommendations don't be afraid to ask the lovely staff for pointers on what to order. The atmosphere was great and very friendly. Would definitely recommend everyone to visit with family, friends or significant others for a lovely time in Sifnos

PERFECT! We ordered fresh fish and fresh squid. They were prepared exactly as needed to be very tasty, the tasties we tried on the journey and for a long time. Although the absolutely full restaurant, the waitress served the drinks immediately. Good view and nice location. We always prefer restaurants where the customers are the local population. This is a sign for good food. We recommend it!

5 stars. Great setting, calm and nice view. The Seafood platter was top notch. Had 2 bottles of Barbayani with it. Definitely visit when in Sifnos! This and Simos are the best.

The fish is super good, we ate the sea bream and a tarama as the starter. The portions are big. At night it looks to be pretty full, but at lunch it is almost empty, so if you want to try it without being crowded I recommend eating there at lunch

Went on a Sunday and had the chickpea stew traditional to Sifnos on this day which was smoky, nuanced, and delicious. We also had salad with cheese made in Sifnos which was huge and very fresh. Lovely seating on the water and one of the best meals we had during our trip in Greece. Added bonus- a family owned spot.

Best place to get fresh fish in town, price and quality wise is the best as well we had in Sifnos. The flavors were amazing and the starters were also special. Great atmosphere with directly sea view and the lively street. The staff were friendly but there’s a room for improvement with more proactive attitude and attention. Highly recommended and reservation is needed for the sea view.
