Where to eat: the 24 best restaurants in Platis Gialos

Nice ambiance and decent food offering! For the price point, one would arguably expect something more bold and audacious! They are encouraged to try it as something to improve! Service was definitely a strong point, especially Giorgos who made our evening memorable!

For the name of God just book in advance and visit this place!!! My fiancée and myself visited this place and it exceeded our expectations!!!! We have been to restaurants around the world but this one is definitely one of the best we have been to!!! Excellent staff, professional, full of smiles and positive energy! They enjoy themselves and you can see the happiness on their face when you enjoy yourselves. The food is made by fresh ingredients and the combination of flavours creates an explosion of taste and awesomeness!!! The secluded beach, the stars and moon create an out of this world experience!! TOTALLY RECOMMEND IT!!! Μπράβο παιδιά είστε καταπληκτικοί!!!

Waited all summer to visit Cantina and it didn’t disappoint. The service, food quality and atmosphere were all 10/10. All the staff were so friendly and helpful, offered suggestions for wine/ specials without being pushy. They also were very helpful with ordering a taxi for us. One of my favourite dining experiences, can’t wait to visit again! Pricing: It’s a sharing menu, 7 courses at €70pp and you can upgrade to €100 to have the special menu. There were options for bottles of wine from €40 all the way up to €900+

We had an absolutely wonderful late lunch here. Living in London we massively enjoyed coming post swim and not being rushed, having almost all the 3 hours with a stunning view felt like a luxury.

10/10. Just perfect. Absolute must in sifnos. Staff are amazing, food is incredible. A super special once in a lifetime experience without any stuffiness or pretentiousness. Just good homemade local food and the best vibes.

Absolutely beautiful restaurant. Food was amazing but missing a bit of a wow factor for the price. Still very high quality food but the "mains" were lacking some flavor. We would still go back anytime visiting sifnos as it is beautiful and their wine list is spectacular.

The setting, the food, the service, were all absolutely top notch. One of the best experiences dining that my wife and I have had. Sommelier was awesome allowing us to try varieties we were less familiar with.

Without a doubt, this was the best food we had on the island. Every dish was excellent, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. Everything about our experience was simply fantastic. The service was outstanding—warm, attentive, and thoughtful in a way that made us feel truly cared for. The staff went above and beyond, especially in doting on our young baby, which made the evenings even more special. The service here is the best we’ve experienced anywhere in Greece, and that kind of consistency clearly comes from the top, so congratulations to the management for setting such a high standard. We loved it so much that we came back for our last night in Sifnos, and it was the perfect way to end our trip. The team were outstanding and we couldn’t be more appreciative of them taking care of us. A visit to Sifnos isn’t complete without dining here. I’m still thinking about their dessert and can’t wait to come back one day!

We had a great dinner at Omega3. We got sat right a the water as another family decided to get up. The menu is interesting a big departure from typical Greek cuisine. The waiter was prompt, helpful and provided suggestions. The meals are served tapas style and everything we had was really good. We liked every dish, they did get sea urchin for the first time in a few weeks and that was delicious. The wine list was extensive and not knowing anything about Greek wine, the waiter provided some suggestions (also some of the most expensive) but they didn’t disappoint. Overall we had a fantastic experience and would go back the next time we are on the island.

The food was very nice, nice concept of restaurant and delivered a nice experience. Was a but too loud from the beach and music from other bars, but overall was worth coming to try! Fish mosaic was surreal and orzo was also really tasty!

A party of 5 and we tried 9 different plates and 2 desserts! Everything was amazing and honestly i can not understand the bad reviews! Off course it’s a matter of personal taste, but Omega 3 it’s not a place to bury it with bad reviews! Taste, quality of materials and service is very high level! The price is about 40-50 euros per person which is understandable for what it offers! Definitely a place you must visit in Sifnos!!!

We loved the casual atmosphere — it’s the kind of place that makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. The menu is focused on small plates designed for sharing. We were recommend to order 5 to 7 plates for two people to get a good variety — each dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor. The staff were incredibly friendly and offered great suggestions and making us feel right at home. Definitely a place we would like to come back to — highly recommended!

It was worth the hype. We went there for lunch, no booking ahead and were able to get a nice table. We ordered 5 plates + dessert for two people and each was wonderful, amongst the best meal we ever had. Staff was very friendly. I would come back.

Very nice and unique food. The location is great and the staff is very helpful. However, the portions are extremely small considering the price — especially the dish with the king crab.

Our best dinner in Sifnos! The atmosphere was absolutely spectacular, and each dish was uniquely prepared with such creativity and care. A truly unforgettable experience — highly recommended!

The food and the location are wonderful. We had a nice range of dishes with seafood and meat and some excellent vegetable dishes. The fish was superbly cooked with a crisp skin and soft inside. The service I expected the be a bit more attentive at this price level. At times there was quite some waiting between dishes and it took a while to order dessert. The dining area is located outside and it can be a bit windy. We were in a very good spot though and the views is marvellous. Overall a very enjoyable experience, would definitely go again. But overall a very

Hi there! Thank you for everything! The whole experience was delightful. From a fine dining perspective, it was by far the best food, atmosphere, and service on the island. Congratulations to everyone who planted the seed that grew into this amazing result. Just outstanding! 🏆💚🌱✨

Think cliffside elegance with views that make you stop in your tracks. Bostani is the kind of restaurant that truly captures the magic of dining in Sifnos—picturesque, refined, and deeply rooted in the island’s culinary traditions. A rare gem that’s an absolute must for any traveler visiting the island. Inspired by the home garden it’s named after, Bostani takes a seasonal, ingredient-driven approach to Sifnian cuisine. Much of the produce is grown onsite or sourced from trusted farms across Sifnos and the Cyclades, which makes every dish feel deeply connected to the land. We dined as a group of 11 and took full advantage of the share-style menu, ordering nearly every dish so we could try it all. Highlights from our entrees included the beef tartare, tomatoes with strawberries, green salad, zucchini, calamari, and the local chickpeas. For mains, we savored the lobster mac & cheese, pork, goat, fish of the day, and prime rib—each dish expertly prepared and beautifully presented. To finish, we couldn’t resist trying all three desserts: the Ekmek Kadaifi, orange pie, and milk pie. We paired our meal with a few bottles of the Oros white dry wine from Akrathos Newlands Winery, which complemented everything perfectly. With a relaxed yet elevated atmosphere and guests of all ages, Bostani is ideal for families, couples, or groups. It’s a truly special dining experience that celebrates the heart and soul of Sifnian food.

What an amazing restaurant! Definitely a must go in Sifnos. Amazing view and very tasty dishes. The salad was OK, probably it lacked taste a bit probably because the tasteless tomatoes. And the ekmek kadayifi was fine, but I would expect a different dish, but apparently Greeks do it this way with custard. The chickpea and the lobster mac and cheese pasta were really good. We also liked the cocktails and the wine selection.

Simply Amazing! This is fine dining at its best. From the second we arrived we had outstanding service, and we could get all the meals to share between the two of us. We ordered 2 starters, 2 main dishes, and 2 signature cocktails. Bostani did not dissappoint. The food really showed Sifnos' reputation of great food culture. All employees were very kind. The atmosphere was also wonderful. We pretty much got our next dish before finishing the previous one, but it was not stressful in any way, just good service.

Short story: food ok/good, service bad and arrogant, ambiente great, a place for instagram people… Long story: We booked a table online, and due to the short notice, confirmation via WhatsApp was fast. We added in the field „dietary restrictions“ that one of us doesn‘t eat fish. We got a great table with a beautiful view and were approached by a young waiter(1) handing us the menu and asking for allergies. We confirmed that one of the guests did not eat fish. It was not an allergy but personal preference. Other than expected, the „a la carte“ menu was different than the one in their website. Instead of waiter 1 showing up again, it took ages and waiter 2 showed up and explained that the menu online was from last year. Anyway. We ordered inter alia bread and butter. Waiter 3 brought the starters, while waiter 4 collected the plates afterwards. While finishing the bread I wondered what “Bottarga” was, googled it, and found out it is fish roe. It was the orange stuff on the butter. I confronted waiter 4 who started to argue a bit but also wanted to double check it with her colleagues. Waiter 1 arrived again to ask again if it’s a personal preference or allergy and then told us they only remove things if it’s an allergy. We once again pointed out it was also written in the dietary restriciton with our reservation. Waiter 1 then tried to explain that fish roe (Bottarga) is not fish, just a product from the fish and we are wrong. We’re still shocked that a waiter tries to explain to a lawyer that something that is cut out of the fish’s belly is not fish. Bostani waiters should check how bottarga is made. It’s the roe string extracted from the fish’s belly. For me, it still counts as fish if someone says he doesn’t like fish! Mistakes happen, but the question is how you deal with it. The waiter 4 preferred to argue, telling us that “Bottarga” was written in the menu and did not give any sign of being sorry or that it was a mistake. Since we wanted to enjoy the evening together, we did not google every word on the menu prior ordering and kept our phones in the pockets and relied on the waiter to guide and help. But the waiters at Bostani are rather a faceless dinner-plate-shuttle than professional and hospitable. Waiter 5 served the main course, the pork was ok (overpriced), the fish was very good to be honest. Many waiters walked by, no waiter asked how the food tasted in between, no waiter filled the glasses and when we finished no waiter felt responsible to take care of the finished plates. Waiter 3 which we hadn’t really talked to so far, showed up and cleaned the table. We also asked for the bill. Waiter 2 showed up with the bill which had 2 drinks on it which we never ordered nor consumed and walked away. After some minutes waiter 2 showed up again, took the bill and came back with a new bill, this time corrected. In crowd control and conflict solving, the option “face change” is sometimes used to solve problems between two people or parties. Bostani uses the option “face change” to create problems and conflicts. During the payment process I gave the advice that with only one face this problem would not have arisen, but once again, I was wrong and waiter 2 told me this is not the concept of the restaurant. If waiter 1 would’ve served the food, she could’ve known that there is Fish on the butter which one doesn’t like. If waiter 1 would’ve brought the bill, she would’ve known that these drinks did not belong to our bill. If waiter 1 would’ve taken care of us this evening she would’ve deserved tip, if 5 waiters show up, I don’t tip since I don’t know who to tip. What we expected? - 1 friendly and professional waiter - good food - a manager that shows up to take responsibility for mistakes that happens What we enjoyed the most? - the way home to Stamna Hotel with the knowledge that we’re going to have a great breakfast the morning after. Perhaps we were not „fancy“ enough to fit in this concept and also to know what “Bottarga” is by heart… but the attitude of the waiters is unacceptable.

Lovely spot with great ambience and excellent service. The menu is adventurous - with interesting and unexpected combinations and techniques that left us at moments impressed (for example the sea bream in quinoa crust), at moments a bit puzzled (for example the kiwi purée and cucumber celery garnish in the sea bream). Overall, we liked the experience and the daring approach. Ambience and service are truly 10/10. Definitely a must try in Sifnos!!

Wow! One of the best lunch ever! The chef is a genius! All the dishes were very well made, balanced and tasty! The presentation was great and Isaac the waiter was really friendly and helpful! Big thank you for the experience!

I went without reservation and the staff was extremely helpful to find me a table. I was on my own, and wanted to try another wine that was not on the glass service but they found me a good middle ground. Whatever I tried was extremely tasty. The spring onion starter with “almond ricotta” is a very unusual yet enjoyable dish, that gets richer with the textures. The famous sea bream with quinoa crust deserves its fame. Very light and fit for a summer evening, while still holding flavour richness with green “salsa” and celery salad. And the star of the night, the cookie sandwich dessert with pistachios. How amazing a dessert can be, a perfect match for the Samos nectar wine too! I’d be happy to be back here! Thanks to the chef and the lovely service team!

Very special and incredibly tasty dishes. The girl who served us was very polite and helpful (Thank you Penelope) . Highly recommended – 100%.

We’ve been traveling around Greece. This was by far the best food we’ve had. It was absolutely worth it. We had fried cuttlefish, spring onion, sea bass, and orzo with pork. It was an absolutely amazing experience. Frankie and Nico are the best. Ask for them :-)

Awesome restaurant. We had 1 dish off menu and 2 from the menu... amazing! Wine also really good. Everything perfect thanks!

Had a lovely and quiet lunch experience here amidst an otherwise busy beach. The food quality and presentation were top notch, and the service was a 10/10. Don’t miss out on the watermelon salad, and the restaurants fabulous bread/olive oil/olives!

I almost don’t want to share this place — it’s that good. Perfect Greek home cooking with fresh, flavorful ingredients, all made in a wood-fired oven. Ask about off-menu veggies (the spinach with lemon is amazing), and don’t miss the giant beans. The staff are lovely, and the setting is beautiful on a warm summer evening. A true hidden gem.

We had an amazing dinner at Kelari restaurant. The restaurant itself is gorgeous, we walked in and were seated straight away. The traditional lamb mastelo was full of flavour and so tender! Cooked to perfection. The lamb chops were absolutely delicious and a great portion size. The service was great and staff are very friendly. Kelari is a must visit! Would recommend 1000% during your stay in Sifnos.

Very nice local restaurant with tasteful dishes. They use fresh and good quality ingridients. We visit this restaurant during our staying in sifnos the last 4 years and the quality remains excellent. We have tried traditional cooked dishes and lamb chops. You should do a table reservation and extra reservation for lamb chops the last 2 years (which we find extremely ridiculous). You have to try Imam. The staff are really friendly and overall is a pleasant experience!!

This restaurant is a must if you are in Sifnos. Very fresh and authentic- I felt like I was eating at my Yiayia’s house. The owner and staff are very warm and welcoming. 10/10!

Off the beaten track, in the small hamlet of Kato Petali (walking distance from Apollonia or Artemonas), with a beautiful outdoor terrace covered by green plants, sits Kelari restaurant. Authentic Greek food, gracious/ hard-working waitstaff - simple but delicious food , very reasonably priced (try the tiropitakia). Tip: need a reservation, we saw several parties turned away, who did not have one.

We had dinner at Kelari in Sifnos and really enjoyed the experience. The food was of great quality, full of flavour, and very well cooked. Portion sizes were generous, making it excellent value compared to many other places. The outdoor setting is beautifully done, with a stylish Cycladic feeling that creates a very pleasant atmosphere for dining. The staff were friendly and professional, though it was clear towards the end of the evening that they were tired. We were the last customers, and while it’s understandable that the team wanted to wrap up and go home, it was a little too obvious that they were waiting for us to leave. A touch more subtlety would have made the ending smoother. Overall, though, a very good restaurant with delicious food and a lovely environment — definitely worth visiting.

This was my favorite meal in Sifnos. The chick pea soup is a must. We also had the lamb braised in red wine and sausage with feta. Mom and Pop cooking in the back. Nice wait staff and I hope to come back someday again.

There is nothing quite like Perivoli. I’m basing all my visits to Sifnos around dining here. The people are incredible, the food, divine! The atmosphere is beyond. Farm to table, ages to perfection steaks, lobster perfection??? Deserts to make you cry with joy??? This is your place. There are many reasons I dined here 3 out of 10 days for dinner. My lovely server even came by on her day off to wish me well on my journey home. Come here, become family. And prepare to eat more than your stomach & eyes can handle. I highly recommend having a starving belly. Drink the indigenous wine with the local fare, they go together. Look for some lovely katydids in the trees and listen to the soothing resonance of night reverberations.

Exquisite atmosphere, delightful and attentive staff. Delicious and well presented food. Loaded with flavour and colour. Best restaurant we’ve experienced in a week on Sifnos. Do try it for yourselves.

We had dinner here during sunset and we fell in love with the place. The food was amazing, we shared a couple of starters and a main dish. The grilled aubergine and their fresh version of calamari was really good. But the pasta with veal tail was out if this world, it was the best meal we've had in a long time!

Totally recommended: definitely one of the best restaurants in Sifnos! Atmosphere, food and service 10 out of 10. Thank you, we will return-)

we had a wonderful dinner experience here! food was exquisite: - housemade sourdough bread and butter: some of the best bread we’ve had on Sifnos, and the butter (sun-dried tomato? cheese?) was a delightful surprise - calamari: such a great combination of flavors, roasted kale (we missed kale so much), artichoke, grilled generous pieces of squid, and a bright sauce with a lovely citrus note. outstanding dish - grilled chicken: also very delicious, mushroom soufflé was alright but the chicken was just perfect, perfectly cooked with a delicious glaze we weren’t too hungry so we ordered light but the portions were good sizes! for the quality of food, beautiful setting, and attentive service, the price was reasonable. also loved the delicious house made strawberry vodka they provided on the house at the end of the meal! 10/10 recommend coming here while you’re in Sifnos

I expected a lot more than this from this place. The dishes were OK but nothing too special. Their price range is at fine dining levels but the food and the service you get is not sadly.

We were extremely disappointed with our experience at Perivoli. Despite having a reservation, we waited 30 minutes to be seated. The only highlight was the salad, which was fresh and well-prepared. However, the main courses were significantly delayed, and when they arrived, the meats were completely wrong in terms of cooking. The staff's attitude made things worse; they offered no apologies or even basic courtesy. I understand restaurants can have off days, but the lack of accountability or kindness was unacceptable.

Very nice family of fishermen. You select your fish on entry to the restaurant so be prepared! They pointed out a fish that their son had caught 10 mins prior off the pier. Service was personable and very friendly. Great stuff :)

Wonderful dinner! Captain Sifakis is a true fish tavern, family-owned restaurant and super nice service. As we entered we had the chance to choose our fish (caught during the same day by the brother of the owner) and they cooked it as we wanted, the price was really affordable for the great quality that we got. last two pros: the super attentive service ( they offered us an handmade tuna as we sat at the table and a wonderful little dessert as we finished the dinner) and the stunning view. probably the best dinner here in Sifnos

It was one of the best meals we had in Sifnos, with spectacular views. You choose your fresh fish of the day, and they cook it for you! Delicious and generous!

Amazing food, all fish is fresh and you get a taste of the real Greek cuisine and hospitality! The people are very polite, service is fast and the vibe really nice. I highly recommend the place, also an amazing view 😊

We went for dinner and the main issue for us was the price and the service: we paid way to much for what we ate and for the quality of the food. The fish was fresh but really badly cooked, water coffee and beer extremely overpriced. The service was quite sad and unprofessional. The location could be nice if better arranged and if the service would take care more. I liked the moussaka out of everything it wasn’t bad

Captain Sifakis was such a special and authentic dining experience. As soon as we arrived, we were taken to choose our fish, freshly caught that day by the owner himself — his fishing boat is moored just out the front, which really sets the tone. We chose the snapper, which was cooked to perfection and paired simply with potatoes and a Greek salad. Everything was fresh, honest, and delicious. The setting is beautiful, right on the water, and while the service was just okay, the whole experience felt so real and unpolished in the best way. We thoroughly enjoyed it — a true Sifnos highlight.

Best meal in Sifnos! When you reach the restaurant you'll choose the fresh fish you're going to eat. Amazing service and food is AMAZING. Must eat in Sifnos!

From farm table this little restaurant serves delicious local food. The lamb chops were amazing. The daughter who is the service speaks very good English and is a delight.

While wandering through the charming streets of Kastro after visiting the little church perched on the cliffside, we stumbled upon Astro Taverna — a beautiful, inviting spot that instantly caught our eye. A short climb up the stairs led us to a small balcony dotted with tables and chairs, overlooking the picturesque surroundings. The atmosphere felt truly authentic, with a menu full of traditional Greek dishes. Arriving late and feeling tired and hungry, we went for comforting, quick bites — sharing a Greek salad, feta, and saganaki to start. For mains, we each had spaghetti with meat sauce — the Greek take on spaghetti bolognese. While the pasta was simple, it completely hit the spot, and I polished off every bite. The whole experience was exactly what you’d hope for in a tiny Greek island village — friendly staff, quick service, and a relaxed, welcoming vibe. Best of all, we could walk straight in without a wait. A hidden little gem worth visiting when in Kastro.

It’s a pity that such a beautiful restaurant is not up to standard. There was a lack of music, incredibly understaffed workforce and undercooked food. I really hope this place learns a lesson from this summer because it has the potential to be the best on the island. Staff really made up for it by not charging us for the undercooked food.

Not the best meal I’ve eaten since I’ve been in Sifnos but really sweet staff and pretty decent food. Didn’t have to wait long either.

We had a really nice dinner here. The staff were friendly, and although it was busy and we had to wait for a table for around 15 minutes, they were prompt with the clearing of the prior table and welcoming us in. The food was delicious and well priced. Can recommend!

Probably the best food we had on the island. We didn’t have a reservation so we had to wait 30 mins. But it was definitely worth it!

Very good tavern in a cosy atmosphere. The food is fresh and tasty. You have to try chef's saganaki!, saganaki, special saganaki, eggplant with meatballs, greek salad, fava, zucchini balls, minced meatballs!, chicken souvlaki!, cheese balls! and chicken roll roast! The owner and waitress are very polite. Big recommendation !

NUS, the name is mythical and pure magic to those who have dined here. I was blessed with this delightful place nearly to myself (early diner) and a kitty cat or two. I had no idea I was privileged to be dining at such a wonderful restaurant without even trying. My server was just darling, he deserved to be accoladed more than I can express here…. Eat anything. But for sure if they have the smoked chicken in a glass cloche, or the caper hummous with caper leaves, try those. The setting is also beyond imagination. I am so excited for my next visit!

NUS is an odyssey of flavors (see what I did there?) with a unique spin on classic Greek dishes. The chickpea falafel, beetroot salad, stuffed peppers, and triple-cooked potatoes were standouts, and the tomato with crispy caper leaves was a brilliant surprise. The staff was wonderful—patient, friendly, spoke great English, and offered excellent suggestions with genuine smiles. A must-visit on Sifnos.

Lovely experience at NUS. We enjoyed every part of the meal, right down to the best ice cream we’ve had - the roasted coconut. We managed to have a lot of variety in vegetarian meals which was an added bonus. Service was good, friendly waiter and (lots of) four-legged friends! A bit pricey but very well-worth the money, time and experience!!

absolutely delicious food and great menu. the location on the beach is magical and with some cute cat visitors. would recommend the food lots but be patient as unfortunately the service was not great. we were a bit forgotten about after we were served our food, we would’ve kept having a few cocktails but even getting the bill was difficult.

Second time at Nus and everything is great. The food is delicious. I recommend the eggplant, potatoes, and crab. The place is beautiful, the service is lovely, and especially our waitress with long black hair. It is always easy to find a table, which is surprising because this place should to be full!

Such a beautiful restaurant by the beach, with amazing food. We tried a wide variety of plates and they were all delicious and very innovative and well presented. Angelos was our waiter and he was so kind and nice to us. Highly recommended.

We had the most beautiful lunch today at Nus. The location is right on the beach but table in the shade. The food was creative and delicious, a very Ottolenghi vibe. Service was friendly and efficient. A wonderful find and we highly recommend.

Nice place with view on the valley, relaxing atmosphere, food was good. I gave them 4 stars as I would have loved to receive the order at once, there was almost 20 mints between the orders. But the flavors were delicious and the juices were fresh and nice. Pro tip, play a play list instead of one song on the repeat 😉

Terrible brunch experience. The coffee tasted awful. I ordered a yogurt bowl for €8.50 — barely any oats, like they just sprinkled a few on top as decoration. Maybe five strawberries total. Then came the omelette: everything inside was raw. Canned mushrooms thrown in cold, low-quality ham with a weird texture. No effort at all, just cheap ingredients thrown together. Totally overpriced. Feels like a tourist trap. Honestly insulting. Never again.

This place is really special. If you approach it by the main road, by the bus stop, it looks nice, but you really need to go into the terrace to appreciate how lovely it is. If you enter from the back you enter a stunning enclosed garden/patio. This establishment is a patisserie, tony shop and restaurant. They stock a huge selection of homemade treats, and you can watch them make and package these goodies by hand. They also have a lovely wine shop next door, €10 for a very nice wine. The first time we went we had a croissant and coffee. The croissant was HUGE, delicious and warm. The lovely, blonde owner said that as we were there at 8:00am we got to enjoy them fresh from the oven - bliss. The coffee was wonderful, and served with a delicious cinnamon biscuit. These were so delicious I bought a big bag of them. We came back another day for lunch and had a superb chicken club, huge. The glass of wine I had was delicious and generous. Highly recommended.

Great selection of pastries and sweets as well as ice-cream. The prices are comparable to others and the added element is the friendly and helpful staff. A very nice experience.

Cakes and sweets are quality chocolate here and the service is lovely. Angelo helped us out each day we came. He is wonderful.

Great sweets with the traditional recipes. The chocolate pie with vanilla ice-cream was amazing and the staff was very helpful and kind.

This note is strictly for the coffee and breakfast. 8.50 euros for a bowl of yogourt and a sprinkle of un cooked Oats is not acceptable. Not even in Switzerland (where i live) do you get this kind of value for money. "Spécial omelette" with fresh vegeatbles for 11 euros that comes out with tinned Mushrooms and 2 thin slices of raw Peppers, once again is shocking. Not ok. Even if you're in a touristy area you should still aim to serve good food especially if you're going to put a ridiculous price for it.

A real find! Best overall meal experience so far. Literally a seaside gem. Had fried calamari, Greek salad and an incredible view. If you are in Kastro go down the stairs to the water and revel in a real Greek experience. I think the owner cook (Captain George?) was there. Spoke no English (why should he?) and had a big smile.

Amazing, fresh food at a family restaurant with super friendly service. They catch the fish, you pick it, they cook it. Can’t get better than that ! Thank you for making our last night in Sifnos special

The restaurant offers a very unique dining experience, run by a two-person team. The setting is lovely, right on the water edge. However, the food was a bit underwhelming overall. The prawns hadn’t been cleaned, which made for an unpleasant start — though once cleaned, they were actually quite tasty. On the other hand, the tuna dish was nice - fresh. Given the overall experience, the meal felt quite overpriced for the quality. While we appreciated the atmosphere, I expected more from the food.

Amazing food with a wonderful view. We had Greek salad, fried squid and fresh sea bream. It was All delicious. We highly recommended for an authentic Sifnian experience.

Amazing food, right by the sea. The food is wonderful, expect a little bit of a wait for the fish but it’s worth it. Can only recommend!

What a perfect meal. This restaurant gives you the feeling of eating a homemade meal in the most superb setting. The menu changes daily, but I would recommend ordering the fava, octopus and crispy fried shrimp if available. The setting is casual and you get to enjoy the view with the waves splashing up against the restaurant. Highly reccomend coming here for a wonderful expression of Greek cooking.

We felt very led astray by all of these good reviews…. The octopus and calamari were completely leathery and inedible. The prawns and salad were fine but nothing special. The service was very bad, it didn’t feel like anyone cared about what they were serving or took any pride in their restaurant. Overall a very disappointing and overpriced experience. Not sure if it’s because we came in September near the end of the season but I certainly would not go back.

The location is stunning. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Almost everything we ate was very good. Do not get the chocolate tart. You are setting yourself up for heartache. It’s rubbish (lacking in flavor, texture and any kind of indulgence), it’s way more expensive than the orange cake, it’s 1/4 the size of the orange cake and the orange cake is amazing. The grilled cheese was very nice, but could do with some of the sauce that comes with the churros as a dipping option. The place is very spendy. London prices in Greece is kind of wild. But the pork was cooked to perfection. The churros were a show stopper and the gyoza was an interesting and cool take on classic Greek cuisine. All that being said, it was odd that every table around us was given some kind of clear mystery drink in a stemmed glass upon paying their bills, but we were not afforded that luxury.

Absolutely delicious and fresh Greek food! We loved everything we ordered — fresh tomato salad (always), the comforting orzo, and the perfectly grilled fish. The side of sea vegetable with the fish was such a pleasant surprise; as someone from Asia, I was instantly reminded of the “wok hey” we associate with truly great cooking — such a good sign! The view from our table was amazing! (if you arrive early you get to pick where you wanna sit), and the warm, friendly staff made us feel genuinely welcome. We ended up spending almost two and a half hours, just soaking in the atmosphere. It was a wonderful dining experience and a highlight of our Sifnos trip — highly recommended!

What a delight. It was such a glorious setting on the beach that's the ticket. The food was a little over priced but was exceptional flavours that came out of it. The service was amazing and the vibe on the beach was so good with a sense of space and allowing the experience to.dine with sand underfoot a real treat

A very nice dinner experience overlooking the sea. We really loved the starters and sharing with friends. The main dishes are very consistent and better to be shared. A great location with friendly service!

One of the tastiest restaurants in Sifnos! We had a quick lunch and we tried the seafood orzo and chips. Both amazing! Cocktails were tasty. It is next to the beach and has amazing atmosphere. The staff is friendly

This place was lovely, service great but food fell a little short of our expectations. The short rib was a little salty and dry, the gyoza and the red shrimp oshizushi lacked a little flavour despite the lovely presentation …we loved the grilled octopus and crab cacio e pepe …we will definitely come again, and thanks to our fantastic waitress!

This was our most expensive lunch on the island because of this fish but wow, this fish! Grilled so beautifully and seasoned well - I will be reminiscing for years to come. We did order a total of 4 items + drinks for 2 people over a couple hours, so the big tab was worth it. We even took quick dips in the sea between dishes. Service was friendly, knowledgeable, and never hurried. Such a lovely experience!

The kindest owner, Isabella, who gave us great recommendations for food, the best baklava (not too sweet!!) and delicious coffee!! We bought coffee to bring home and can't wait to brew it. What a gem!! Thank you Isabella for the hospitality, laughs and conversation!

Delicious coffee, amazing espresso. Isabela is so lovely. No vegan milk yet here. But a lovely place. And delicious fresh orange juice.

Absolutely loved Way Cup Coffee Roaster! The coffee was truly amazing, and you can tell why – they roast their own beans right there, which is fantastic to see. The lady serving us was incredibly friendly and made the whole experience even better. And the pistachio and almond baklava we had was out of this world! A perfect treat with the coffee. Would highly recommend Way Cup Coffee Roaster to anyone looking for a brilliant coffee experience. Plus, they've just opened a new shop in Platis Gialos, which is great news!

Quaint cafe! Amazing homemade ice cream and roasted coffee! Very happy to have met the most lovely owner! Would definitely come back and visit again!

Some of the best coffee we’ve had on Sifnos, and at a very fair price compared to most others in the area. The owners were incredibly friendly. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

Best authentic place in Sifnos for coffee and loukoumades. It’s a treasure! Get yourself there. The service and coffee rousted beans of Konstantinos hits perfection!

I came here because of the extremely good reviews, but found them misleading. The coffee was mediocre at best and far from 'extraordinary'. However, the girl on service was really polite and pleasant.

The best restaurant on the boardwalk!! Service was considerate and generous - the plates were balanced and the most affordable priced - crudo was fresh, impeccable!! Come back and grab a cabana! We loved Anios 10/5 stars.

We stayed in Platis Gialos — truly one of the most beautiful and peaceful spots on Mykonos — and during our entire stay, Anios became our second home. We went there every single day… sometimes even twice! From fresh fish to Caesar salad, every dish was an absolute delight — always a perfect 10/10. Not once did we leave disappointed. At lunchtime, we often ordered from the Beach Menu, which was a fantastic addition to the main menu. Every visit came with a warm welcome, genuine smiles, and plenty of laughter. Over time, we didn’t just feel like guests — we felt like family. Courtesy is deeply valued here, and the good humor never runs out. The friendliness of everyone at Anios is something we didn’t find as often in other parts of the island, and it made all the difference in our trip. To the entire Anios team — thank you for making us feel so cared for and so welcome. We arrived as strangers but left Mykonos as friends. We will miss you dearly and hope to see you again someday. A special thank you to our wonderful hosts Eugenios and Donald, who went above and beyond — from recommending the best clubs to pointing us toward the island’s most beautiful beaches. And to our amazing waiters Giannis, Xristos, and Giannis — thank you for always making us laugh and turning every meal into a golden memory. Thank you, Anios, for being the heart of our Mykonos experience.

My family and I had an amazing experience here! Great service with friendly and welcoming staff. We loved the food, drinks, and traditional greek music. We ended the night dancing with staff and other patrons!

The best restaurant on the board walk! The staff were great and friendly and had great taste when asked for their opinions! They were very generous and friendly! Free wine brought us in-and their hospitality made us stay! Great food and place all around!

We loved the place, the food and the service!! Portions are abundant, food was tasty and fresh. Good range of wines and beverages. Service is excellent! Staff super friendly and professional. Eugene took good care of us. Prime location, right at the beach. The restaurant has an amazing view ideally for sunsets. I totally recommend Anios!

Absolutely Exceptional Greek Dining Experience! From the moment we walked in, we were transported straight to the heart of Greece. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a perfect balance of elegance and comfort — you can smell the aroma of fresh herbs and grilled meats the second you step through the door. The service was outstanding — friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the food. Our server took time to explain the dishes and even shared a few fun stories about Greek traditions. Every bite was a celebration of authentic flavor. The tzatziki was creamy and refreshing, the spanakopita perfectly flaky, and the grilled lamb was tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection. The moussaka was pure comfort on a plate — rich, flavorful, and beautifully presented. And don’t even get me started on dessert — the baklava was divine, with just the right balance of sweetness and crunch. What really stood out was the attention to detail. You can taste the quality of the ingredients and the care that goes into every dish. It’s clear the chefs here cook with heart and soul. If you’re looking for authentic Greek cuisine that feels both traditional and elevated, this place is a must. Whether it’s a casual dinner, a date night, or a family celebration, you’ll leave happy, full, and already planning your next visit.

We stayed at Dove Hotel in Mykonos and had the best experience so far on our trip. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel completely at home — they are not only professional but also genuinely friendly, funny, and full of great humor. The hotel’s restaurant, Anios, is absolutely amazing. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and every recommendation was spot on. A special thank you to Eugene, who was the best at serving us and giving excellent suggestions — he truly made our dining experience unforgettable

Lunch by the beach in Sifnos. Nice place, good food, great setting. Everything was solid and I had a good time. Just needed a bit more care in the service and dishes to hit five stars. Still, a place I’d recommend.

Lovely lunch spot on the beach! We got there just as they opened at 1 pm and by time we left about an hour later, every table was full. Served fairly quickly. Yummy Greek salad (now a staple for us at every meal) and the local chickpea soup special. Delicious and comforting. With a basket of bread this was more than enough for two. Varied menu. A little $ than some other places on island but delicious.

Excellent food and good portion sizes, we had lamb, meatballs, calamari, salad and olive balls Sadly let down a bit by the service as we hardly saw our waitress, restaurant was packed and maybe just a few too many tables per staff

The food here is absolutely amazing! The prices are incredibly reasonable, and the portions are huge. We had the moussaka, which was incredible, and one of the best fried calamari I’ve ever had. The anchovies were to die for, and the Greek salad was fresh and delicious.

One of the best taverns in Sifnos, for sure. Decent salad, fries and saganaki. Grilled calamari was really tasty. But the star of the show was definitely the chocolate cake. It was very simple and sugary but it blew my mind. It was great

Lovely staff, lovely food, lovely location. Best restaurant in Platis Gialos. Traditional, local family, very greek. No posh uniforms, no loud music & not expensive! Hopefully be back soon.

Very traditional restaurant right on the beach. Definitely try grilled octopus - soft, delicious. Greek salad was really nice and we had beef in tomato sauce and it was tasty very aromatic. Seating on the beach but in comfy shadow from trees.

Yalos Sifnos is a great spot right by the beach. The food is fresh and full of flavor. We loved the tuna tataki and the bruschetta with sardines — both were amazing. Beautiful location, friendly staff, and a relaxed vibe. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Sifnos.

In the setting of Sifnos’ most beautiful beach, the restaurant offers delicious, unique dishes and unforgettable fish carpaccios. The service is top-notch for courtesy, speed, precision, and efficiency. You simply can’t come to Sifnos without having lunch or dinner at Yalos!

We enjoyed this place so much that we went twice during our holiday in Sifnos. The sunbeds are very comfortable and come with proper sunshading, which was really important for us. A set of sunbeds costs 40€, but if you also have lunch at Yalos, the price is reduced to 20€. The food is excellent as well, so I can only recommend coming here.

Best environment/set up in Sifnos. Food is amazing and service top notch. They also have beach lounge chairs, which is a plus. Highly recommend!

Top notch beach front seafood restaurant. Do not miss when in Sifnos! Carpaccio and tartare options totally recommended. The grilled fresh fish was super tasty.

Full day experience on a beautiful beach. Start with sunbeds early morning enjoying coffee juices and the detox water. Head up to the restaurant for a beautiful seafood lunch. Highly recommend the fish kebab and scallops paired with the bruschetta. Head back to the sunbeds to spend the rest of the afternoon. Great drinks menu - alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Will be back.

Omg! This was the best restaurant we ate at during our 3 weeks stay in Sifnos/Serifos. We still talk about the sea bream tiradito several times a week! The service was excellent and everything we picked was fantastic. Don’t miss this!!

Went here because it seemed busy. The waiter, Franko, the ONLY waiter, was lovely and told us we would be waiting a while as he was alone. No problem, he brought wine and menus as fast as he could. I had the mastelo which is supposed to be lamb cooked for hours and falling apart, it was so tough I couldn’t cut it. I sent it back and ordered grilled shrimp which were delicious. My husband had the chicken curry…very tasty. We got a free glass of wine to compensate for the lamb and, because of Franko, we would go back.

This spot became our “local” while we were on Sifnos, even though we stayed in Artemonas. We never got photos of food because we always started eating too quickly! The staff were awesome and we loved getting the comfortable sunbeds out front and spending the day enjoying mezze and the beach. Our favourites were the hummus, Greek salads, the Giaourtlou kebab, the Fava dip and we loved the Akres Kitima Skoura Rosé. Whatever you eat goes towards the sunbed rental and it was always worth it! A huge thanks to Franco and the team!

During my vacation, I had the pleasure of visiting misso misso and it was a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavourful , and beautifully presented. It was one of the highlights of my trip, and I’d definitely go back next time I’m in the area.

Bit of a let down which is a shame. Very average. Looks great and position couldn’t be better but food a bit confused and needs a shake up and service pretty damn poor. I’d love them to do well though but needs some work. Too pricey to be this poor.

We had a good evening in the restaurant. the food is good, the stuff is friendly and the location at the beach is great. prices are ok.

Great place, great food, great service! We can definitely recommend the cocktails (mojito), feta fried in filo, zucchini puffers, grilled mushrooms stacked with halloumi and ask for the pita (not on the menu), which is amazing as well! Waiters are amazing and very chill - we got to sit on the sand/chairs with our drinks after eating and it was no problem! Can definitely recommend, we came back twice!

Delicious food / all clearly labelled vegan which was very helpful and appreciated. The chickpea soup casserole is a must try!

Ορίστε η τελική εκδοχή σε στυλ Google Review, με την κλίμακα αξιολόγησης στην αρχή και την ημερομηνία 16 Αυγούστου: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3/5 (Scale: 1 = poor, 2 = fair, 3 = good, 4 = very good, 5 = excellent) Visit date: August 16 Beautiful location at Platis Gialos with a relaxed and friendly summer atmosphere (ambiance 4/5). Service was polite and accommodating (3/5) – they even welcomed our dog without hesitation and brought water for him, which was very thoughtful. Food overall was 3/5. The best dish was the caserecce al pesto di pistacchio with burrata (4/5). Amatriciana and rigatoni tartufati were decent (3/5 each). Vitello tonnato (2/5) and aglio olio (2/5 – far too oily) were disappointing. The Emiliana salad was poor both in taste and portion (2/5). Wines by the glass (Chianti, Malagouzia, Frescati) were pleasant. We paid around €35 per person, which felt overpriced for the quality offered. High prices are a serious issue across Sifnos, and unfortunately this place is no exception. Toilets were okay but could be better.Portions should be bigger to further justify the price Overall, an okay-to-good trattoria with kind staff and a great location – but food is inconsistent and prices don’t fully justify the experience.

Currently holidaying through Europe, we stumbled upon Mamma Mia in Sifnos — and it perfectly captured that casual, beachside holiday vibe. The restaurant is completely open to the sea, sitting right near the sand, so you’re dining with salty air, sunshine, and ocean views. The interiors are simple and understated, but it totally works — channeling that relaxed, laid-back charm of an Italian eatery on a Greek island. We dined as a group of 10 and noticed the place is ideal for big groups and families. There were people of all ages, from kids to elderly diners — it’s a crowd-pleaser for everyone. Tip: definitely book ahead, even on a midweek night like we went (it was packed). Portions were very generous and perfect for sharing. We ordered a few entrees and pizzas for the table, and most of us still ordered mains — but barely finished them because of how much there was to share. Prices were really reasonable, so we got to feast without breaking the budget. Service started off a little slow, but once the food began to arrive, it came out steadily and kept the table happy. Totally understandable for a packed house. Overall, for an Italian spot in Greece, it’s a solid choice — casual, fun, and great value in a beautiful setting.

Surprisingly good woodfired pizza that provided a great late night takeaway option and a reprieve from Greek food. Just wish the base was firmer, a very soft dough overall (crust and toppings were perfect though).

Although I must admit that the first day we went, the experience wasn’t the best, the second time we returned it was much better. The staff were always attentive, asking if the food was good and genuinely caring about our opinion – a nice touch for anyone stopping by for lunch or dine in I believe pasta or pizza is always a safe choice

Best pizza I have eaten in a while! Perfect! Atmosphere and staff is also great.

Good was delicious. The salad with walnuts and veal so yummy.

Solid pizzas and salad. Decent prices. Great spot for lunch or dinner on the beach or for takeaway.

really great food with an amazing view. the zucchini balls with the hint of mint were delectable. in addition the moussaka was amazing and makes sense that it is award winning. the homemade ice cream was a perfect finish for our last meal in sifnos. will definitely be back on our next trip!

The best restaurant for us in Platis Gialos if you want to eat good Greek food with a good price. The waiter was really nice, food is delicious, we came here twice, Try the chickpea soup, and Imam!

This restaurant was incredible! The chickpea fritters (ρεβιθοκεφτεδες) were the best ones I’ve ever had, perfectly crispy with a burst of flavor. The tzatziki was also quite memorable, very creamy and refreshing. The servers were friendly and helpful, and the ambiance was perfect. We enjoyed lunch by the beach listening to the soothing sound of crashing waves.

We loved the place! It right on the beach and you can eat a good Greek meal the sound of the waves. We tried the eggplant, the Greek salad, stuffed tomatoes and peppers and the chickpea soup. Everything was really good and tasty! Next time we would try the mussaka and some fish. If you want to try real greek and Sifnian food you have to go there. Also, Maria was really kind with us and the waiters too.

Amazing restaurant with great food and a perfect atmosphere. Especially liked the chickpea balls and the homemade ice cream they brought us for dessert. I came a few weeks ago and was particularly impressed with how the great waitstaff handled a very difficult large group of customers in a way that preserved my groups fantastic experience. Would give a 6/5 if I could.

In “Cyclades” is very tasty food, big portions, polite and competent personal and especially owners. Perfect view, possibility to go to swim and after swimming to the table to have a perfect dinner. We were there several times and every time everything was splendid. Evharisto para poli, Maria and Nikos!!!

First restaurant since in the cyclades where you can eat good quality authentic Greek food. Every single dish is delicious. Thank you so much. Finally a place that is not a tourist trap!

Amazing view, conveniently located to one of the beaches on the island. There is a pickup spot at the entrance, and it runs every hour. There is no payment to enter the beach. However, they do have a reasonable option to get chairs and umbrella on the beach. The prices for food and beverages are a bit expensive but it's Mykonos soooo....yeah!

At San Stefanos Beach Greek Traditional Cuisine, you don’t just eat well – you experience true Greek hospitality. The warm welcome, especially from Tesos, makes every visit feel special. The setting is simply perfect: right on the beach, with a beautiful view of the sea. You can spend the whole day here, enjoying the comfort of sunbeds in the shade or sunshine, just as you like. And when it comes to food – this is the place to taste authentic traditional Greek cuisine at its best. Every dish reflects the flavors and spirit of Greek culture, freshly prepared and full of authenticity. Whether you are looking for seafood, meat, or vegetarian options, there is something for every taste. Combined with the stunning seaside view, it’s always a true pleasure to be here. After so many years of visiting, every return feels like a new yet familiar experience. I can only highly recommend this place to anyone who loves great food, warm hospitality, and the beauty of Mykonos. Patricia

We spent a week in Mykonos with my husband. We were on the beach of this beach bar the whole time. The people working here are very nice and the food in the restaurant is great. Kisses to the young man who already knew by heart that we would like sangria :) We will be back next year!

Service is so slow, and anti tourists. If you are a local, they walk in and order and have drinks and food within minutes. If you come off a cruise ship, be ready to wait an hour or longer for below average food with a huge attitude from the all male wait staff. The beach is trashy and the food isn't very good. My advice is pay the price and take a cab to a different beach from the cruise ship.

Lovely place for lunch, while staying at the beach and dinner. Nice menu, helpful and friendly service and a lovely view, atmosphere!

Had the most amazing grilled chicken here—juicy and flavorful! And the beach view? Perfect spot to relax right by the waves. Loved it!

Very nice restaurant by the beach, we were lucky the have traditional live Greek music and free desert offered. Seafood very fresh, deserves a better rating for sure.

Great little bar right on the beach. We rented sunbeds (20 euros for two) and spent hours there having cold espressos and nice pub style food. Waiters aren’t overly friendly that’s why I removed a star but can’t fault the food and drink!

Nice place and food however the waitresses are not the best. We ordered a fresh orange juice and after a while it did not arrived we asked for it. The waiter went into another table to which he had accidentally delivered the juice 10 minutes ago, he picked it and brought to us (during covid times).

Great place that caters for a wide range of audience whether it's breakfast or a relaxing cocktail by the sea at night this is the place.Don't miss trying the snacks and Salmon and Angus dishes .It's a must.

Got some drinks and went into the ocean for about ten minutes. When I got back, the server have my seat away to someone else (the seat on the left in the picture) even though there was plenty of other seating. When I inquired about it, the server shrugged and said he didn't know. I started packing up my stuff when another server came to ask if something was wrong. I told him and he offered to move the other customer, but I was over it at that point.

I had posted this review earlier, but I noticed it had been removed. I do not appreciate that an honest but below average review is removed to inflate the ratings. I visited the place the first week of September. It was probably the most disappointing food experience during our three-week Greece trip. The waiter seemed disinterested in providing any good service at all. I don’t understand Greek but according to our Greek friends he was outright rude. Also, and just as importantly, the food was far from good and it was pricey. I ordered an extra fried extra egg with my breakfast and was charged a lot. The tortilla wraps were less tasty than the wraps you buy at the kiosk at an airport. The coffee is OK, and the place may be good for drinks. It is too bad the food is subpar as this place has a lot of potential with the very nice terrace. Some people may come back for further visits, just “not-us any day”

The best cocktail 🍸after the best dinner we had here! Thank you Notos!

First of all service was brilliant! Happy, kind, pleasant waiters that you rarely find anymore. Food was a bit overpriced but that's pretty much the case all over the island. Cocktails were also exceptional 👌🏻

I was less impressed with the food here than most other places. My favorite but was the smoked sardines, but the lobster soup and tuna steak were underwhelming unfortunately. It’s a beautiful spot for dinner on the water, but I would recommend something besides the soup and tuna. On the other hand though the service was fantastic. Our server was so sweet and funny, and quick to help.

The restaurant is a beautiful setting. On arrival, no one greeted us and were confused about our reservation. They struggled to uncork our bottle of wine. We were not asked if we wanted water with our meal, and no one asked if we would like a dessert . The food was very good and reasonably priced.

First of all amazing view amazing service the waiters are so nice and kind and friendly the food is immaculate it’s very delicious and aesthetically looking 100% recommend also free drinks!!!!

Some of THE BEST food I have had in all of my world travels. Hats off to the chef and staff.

Excellent all round, good venue, beautiful views, food and service is great !

Definitely worth it, great service and food.

Fabulous restaurant! Amazing view, absolutely spectacular! The food was delicious, one of the best on the island. Highly recommended.

We had our first experience with Greek food in Greece Notos Greek Tavern, and it was absolutely amazing! We ordered the moussaka and chicken gyros — both were packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. You can really taste the authenticity. Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience real local flavors!

Found this gem on a whim, looking for restaurants close to our hotel. Cannot describe how happy we were to spend our last meal on the island eating these homemade recipes. We were impressed by the staff and the atmosphere, and somehow even more with the food! Highly recommend the Pastitio. Extremely reasonable on price as well. Thank you so much Notos! We will be back 😍

UPDATE: Let’s set the facts straight: we were not simply waiting but we were being IGNORED for AT LEAST 20 minutes while other people who came after us got served. The waiters were not busy, but chatting with each other. The owner has a hard time telling the truth. Very sad. AVOID THIS PLACE! —— This is a xenophobic place with an arrogant owner who does not tell the truth! This should be clear to anyone who reads the owner’s reply to my review below. He claims that my review was the first bad review but if you filter the reviews for low score, you will see that indeed he is lying. In fact, some people even complained of microwaved food!! Come on! When we arrived, the restaurant was empty. Waiters (there were at least two of them) had ample time to take our order. But then Greek people arrived who were served before us while we were being ignored! A male waiter went by our table several times seeing our menus closed but wouldn’t ask us for what we wanted for drinks. However, he did go to Greek tables! This was clear ethnic discrimination. Having us waited for at least 20 minutes was a divine sign for us not to eat at this restaurant and reading this review is yours! Don’t come here!! This place should go out of business. No one came to our table. Not even to take order for drinks. We waited for 20 minutes and left. The two photos were shot 20 minutes apart.

Amazing food! Amazing vibes! Amazing workers!! We had eggplant saganaki and tomato from Santorini. It was all delicious. However, what we like the most was the atmosphere. Real Greek vibes, away from massive tourism. Lovely owners. We’ve felt in love with this place!!! Congrats!!!!!

The food is incredibly tasty and the service is truly excellent — friendly, fast, and attentive. All tables are indoors, so there’s no city view, but the cozy atmosphere makes up for it. The only downside is that prices are a bit higher than non-touristy Greek tavernas, but overall it’s worth it for the quality.

Absolutely amazing evening. On a family vacation with 13 people some picky eaters other adventures and everyone loved this place. From the moment we walked in they were welcoming and the food was some of the best we have had on our Greek Island hoping adventure. Would recommend if you want big food the only warning would be that the portions are large but quality is fantastic

We wanted to celebrate our dating anniversary and we couldn't have picked a better place. Amazing atmosphere with great greek music, lovely staff and nice food. If you want to have a real Greece experience you must come here on a wednesday or saturday night when they have live music and plate smashing!

Chic restaurant with large seating area over-looking the beach. Standout dishes were the tuna for mains, and also the tomato side dish. The grilled octopus starter was also flavoured well. Some of the other dishes however, like the tomato pasta felt a little plain.

Beachfront Dining at Its Finest – A Must at Paradise Beach in Mykonos Dining at Baladaya Mykonos was an absolute highlight of our trip. The location is idyllic—perched along the beach with chic decor, stunning views, and a vibe that effortlessly blends relaxed and refined. But it’s the food and service that truly shine. 🌿 Appetizer Standouts: • Tacos Tartar – A creative take on beef tartare: tender Angus beef delicately seasoned with garum and topped with cured egg yolk, all nestled in a soft leafy green instead of a traditional taco shell. It was fresh, umami-rich, and luxuriously light—a bold and elegant bite. • Ceviche – Featuring the freshest fish of the day with fermented jalapeños and lime, this dish was bright, spicy, and perfectly balanced. A standout for anyone who loves vibrant coastal flavors. • Spanakopitakia – These golden, flaky pastries sat atop a delicate base of creamy feta, which added richness without overpowering. Each bite achieved the perfect harmony of crisp phyllo, warm spinach filling, and velvety feta—traditional yet elevated. • Greek Salad – The quintessential summer salad, done right. Perfectly ripe tomatoes, creamy feta, and crisp cucumbers dressed with top-tier olive oil. Simple but unforgettable. 🍝 Shared Main Course: Shrimp Spaghetti – The prawns were succulent and sweet, paired beautifully with pasta in a cherry tomato sauce that was light, garlicky, and bursting with the taste of Mediterranean sunshine. 🍮 Dessert: Baklavas – Flaky, buttery layers with spiced nuts and a honey finish. Not too sweet—just the right amount of indulgence to close the meal. 💫 Service: We were lucky to be taken care of by Anastasia, whose warmth, knowledge, and attentiveness made our experience truly memorable. She paced our meal perfectly and made us feel genuinely welcomed. ⸻ Final Word: Baladaya isn’t just a restaurant—it’s an experience. The food is artfully prepared with unexpected touches that still honor traditional Greek roots. Combined with the setting and service, it’s a must-visit in Mykonos. Perfect for: Romantic dinners, foodie adventures, or anyone who appreciates fresh, inspired cuisine by the sea. Dining at sundown created an amazing golden hour experience!

Food and service was great. 10 out of 10 and I highly recommend it. Whether you're staying on the property at Tropicana or anywhere else. Had the ribeye and lamb chops. Top notch. The guacamole tzatziki dip was off the chain.

10 out of 10. Amazing food. Friendly staff. Great view of the sea. The food was excellent. Get the free range chicken dish and green beans. I might try the steak tomorrow. Great music playing as well. Lots of shade and sheltered from the winds.

Oh my GOODNESS! One of our favorite parts of our 2 weeks trip to Europe. We just ended up here by chance because Tropicana didn’t have any front row lounge chairs and we were so glad we did. So quiet and more romantic than what we could see where Tropicana was. We HIGHLY recommend paying for the lounge chairs and enjoying the ocean. The food we had was some of the best of our trip (get the club sandwich, avocado tzatziki, and loukomades) and our server was SO kind, fun to talk to, and didn’t mind taking pictures for us. Can’t remember her name (so sorry), but she was telling us it’s her dream to get to Hawaii and had a tongue ring — hopefully that narrows it down. 🙂

This is definitely one of mykonos best restaurants. It’s traditional yet sophisticated, elegant and easy going. The food and service are real 5 stars. Views are amazing and ambient very romantic. Special thanks to Anastasia who made our experience great!

Everything here is good! Staff members are polite and friendly. The food is in good size, super tasty and fresh. Beds are comfortable and the view is unique.
