About

Perched slightly outside the bustling downtown area of Mykonos Town, this inviting tavern offers a serene, authentic escape from the standard tourist crowds.

The extensive menu delivers generous portions of Mediterranean comfort food, showcasing signature items like traditional pork and chicken gyros, juicy skewered kalamaki, rich moussaka, stuffed eggplant, and tender braised beef with spaghetti. For a lighter bite, visitors can explore vibrant Greek salads and unique hot mezedes, such as baked feta with honey and sesame or grilled talagani cheese with balsamic syrup. Recognized for its amazingly reasonable and budget-friendly pricing, the restaurant also features an impressive cellar of fine local wines, making it an idyllic stop for an unforgettable lunch or late-night dinner. Highly praised for its warm hospitality and exceptionally attentive service, the venue goes above and beyond to make sure guests feel welcomed and allowed directly into the kitchen to view the freshly prepared daily specials before ordering.

🌿 A Soul-Stirring Greek Experience 🇬🇷 Last night, we stumbled upon this hidden gem of a Greek tavern, and it completely touched our souls. The moment we stepped in, we felt something special — a warm, rustic charm that wrapped around us like an old friend. The flavours? Out of this world. The salads were fresh and vibrant, bursting with the taste of the Mediterranean sun. But the meats… oh my god. Juicy, perfectly grilled, full of soul — you could literally taste the love and tradition in every bite. To the chef: you outdid yourself. You don’t just cook — you create memories. Every dish felt like a story, passed down through generations. And to the staff — your warmth, your smiles, the way you welcomed us — it made us feel not like customers, but like family. We’re leaving tomorrow, but this experience stays with us — a reminder of how beautiful and generous the world can be when people pour their heart into what they do. This isn’t just a place to eat. It’s a place to feel. A place that deserves a spot in the heart of any true food lover. Thank you, from all of us, for a night we’ll never forget. 🌿🔥❤️

Probably the best food in Mykonos. Our family is Greek Canadian we came with some friends to eat tonight. Without being disrespectful to the other taverna style restaurants we ate at. This was the best. Out of all the restaurants. Food is fresh and you can tell it’s home made. The owner was proud to bring us to the kitchen and see all the food they prepared. Braised beef with spaghetti, meltisana dish, pork that was so tender and the best Greek salad and sides to accompany it. Not only that. They also had very reasonable pricing you wouldn’t see on this island. The owner always came by to make sure we were good and brought out the best desserts at the end. The staff was very friendly as well. I can honestly say this is one of the most authentic Greek comfort food choices you can make.

This is one of that kinds of place that sits behind the popular tourist sites but offers a incredibly nice experience. The lemon chicken I ordered seemed to be made at heavens. The size of it though was supposed to make at least three grown up men get rid of a strong hunger. The mykonean salad was one of a kind: soft cheese, balsamic sauce, lettuce and meat - you wouldn’t like to miss it. The best thing about the restaurant is that it is located at the top of the Mykonos town, and you should spend at least 15 mins of intense walking upside a hill to get there. And I suggest it as the best because such physical activity prepares you enough to eat as much food as you want to, not feeling chubby the next day. You are welcome!

This is the best, most authentic place to eat that we have found in Mykonos!! The hosts are so friendly and made us feel like family. They take you to the kitchen and explain all of the fresh ingredients in each dish made that day, you even try a taste before you decide. The food is exceptional! My husband and I have a rule that we never visit the same place twice when travelling and we ate here every day!! It’s that good!!!

The best food in Mikonos!!! 1. The location is amazing. There is a .unique view of the port and Venice Town. 2.We were group of 12 people. Part of us shared all the special home made Greek food and some of us ordered personal course. All 12 people were super happy from the food. It was fresh and very tasty 3. Mims and the rest of the restaurant team served us so nice and eere very patient with us ( it was not easy to serve 12 people ) In addition all team and especially Mimis were so kind generous. 4.We will come again for sure and we recommend to visit this special restaurant.

The Greatest Restaurant Ever in Greece. If you come to Mykonos, you can soon come to know the food is ridiculously expensive. However, when we came here, they allowed us to taste some of their foods and choose the best one. Moreover, after our lunch, they gave us watermelon free of charge. Thank you for the great food and service

Incredible food—arguably the best on the entire island. The staff are warm, attentive, and exceptionally hospitable. The owner is kind and welcoming, and his passion for food shines through every detail of the experience. I would return to Mykonos just to dine here again!

Really great tasting meals. The host showed us the daily specials that weren't listed on the menu. I ordered the beef with orzo and the meat was super tender and well seasoned. We also got dessert on the house.

We happen to pick this restaurant for a late lunch. We walked in and a gentleman greeted us quickly. As soon as he realized we were foreign, he walked us back to the display kitchen explaining all of the days specials. He even gave us a sample of one. We had a béchamel layered dish that was fantastic. He explained the specials were changed everyday. It very very evident that the people working at this restaurant are very passionate about their food. We’re hoping to go back even though we have a short stay in Mykonos Update we went back and weren’t disappointed. Fabulous food !
