Molti is a fantastic restaurant with lovely staff and delicious food. Both of our dishes were cooked perfectly and the sauces were excellent. The portion size was enough for an adult, and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend Molti to anyone looking for a delicious meal in Cyprus.
Excellent steaks and a great dinner overall! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Prices are very reasonable, and the quality exceeded expectations. Highly recommended — and of course, we’ll be back! Thank you for a lovely evening.

My wife and I Visited molti restaurant for a second time on our holiday in protaras. On both occasions the service and meals were excellent. I had spaghetti carbonara for second time and it was once again lovely. Not too creamy and lovely crispy smoked bacon. My wife had a chicken and prawn dish which she thoroughly enjoyed. Would certainly visit again before we go home.

We ordered a take away meal for our group of 6 adults, (we were staying in a villa not far away) we were so impressed with the food quality and quantity. It didn’t take long for the food to be cooked, it was fresh and tasty. The portion sizes were spot on and we were so impressed with the value for money. We chose here because of their gluten free selection due to one of our group being celiac. The gluten free meal was amazing. Thank you for looking after us!

On holiday. Very rare for us to visit a restaurant more than twice. Molti in a league of its own. Atmosphere, food, service couldn’t be faulted. Plus my wife is coeliac and suffers greatly with restaurant food. But their gluten free intelligence was terrific. Highly recommended see pics of my fave salmon in teriyaki sauce.

Restaurant
Andama Tavern is a long-standing restaurant in Protaras, Cyprus, offering a wide range of classic Greek Cypriot dishes. Established in the early 90s, it has become a favorite among locals and tourists alike. The restaurant provides both indoor and outdoor seating with views of the beautiful turquoise sea. Known for its generous portions and traditional home-style meals, Andama Tavern offers an extensive menu featuring salads, carpaccios, steaks, pasta, seafood, and savory lamb dishes.
I eat out a lot and have visited many restaurants in Europe and this is one of the best I have eaten at. Don't be fooled by the fact that they are right on the tourist strip, this is a real gem. The staff is friendly and service-oriented and you feel welcome. The children were given crafts while waiting for their food and they were offered bread with olive oil. The portions were generous and the food was incredibly tasty. Even the children who are usually picky liked the pizza. We decided to eat there another evening and we did not regret it. We chose their tasting menu and there was plenty of food and incredibly tasty. We were two adults but we could not finish everything. They offered to take what was left in lunch boxes with us and the children got a free dessert, ice cream with crackers. We give this place our highest recommendations and will definitely be back 🌟

A very nice restaurant that we went early and am I glad we did because later it was packed. So early is good, later you'd better book. Food was lovely, possibly too much but I managed my steak with possibly the best peppercorn sauce I have ever had. The prawn meal my wife had was enormous. Friendly staff, manager/owner very nice. Quite relaxing.

For me it turned out to be the best restaurant on the coast and the best service. We were 7 nights in Protaros and dined at this restaurant for three of them, and I regretted that four nights we didn't dine at this restaurant.

Had a great dinner at Andama Tavern. Evalina was incredibly welcoming and went out of her way to make sure we had a good experience - even helped us find parking, which was really appreciated. We had the Kleftiko, which they’re known for in Cyprus, and it definitely lived up to the reputation. Tender, full of flavour, and served in a traditional way. Overall, a relaxed and genuine atmosphere with great service. Make sure to have a reservation if going after 7pm.

We had a lovely experience here about eight years ago, so we were excited to come back, but unfortunately, this visit was a huge disappointment. The lady serving us seemed rushed and impatient, barely taking the time to explain the options. We finished eating and left in less than 30 minutes. The food was dry, cold, and definitely not worth the €70 we spent. Sadly, the quality and service have gone downhill, we would’ve had a better meal at BK. Very disappointing!

Kafkaros Tavern is a delightful gem that captures the essence of authentic Cypriot, Greek, and Mediterranean cuisine. With an extensive menu featuring everything from grilled meats to fresh fish, pasta, and hearty vegetarian options, there's something for everyone. The generous portions are reasonably priced, making it a great spot for both locals and visitors alike.
Rustic, traditional Cypriot restaurant serving excellent food, with friendly service. On our first visit we had the Fish Mezze for 2, where we sampled dips, bread, olives, salad, mussels, prawns, sea bream, octopus, squid and fried fish and were delighted with everything! On our second visit we had chicken kebab for lunch with tender chicken skewers, salad, tatziki, pitta. Again, faultless. Advise booking in the evening as it is popular. Superb.

We had the seafood meze at Kafkaros Tavern, and it was absolutely wonderful! It’s a charming, family-style tavern with checkered tablecloths, Greek music, and a cozy, authentic atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a true local dining experience! We’ve tried seafood meze in quite a few places, including some well-known seafood taverns, but this one really stood out as one of the best. The shrimp and mussels in creamy sauce were a highlight! The sauce was so rich and delicate, absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and full of flavor. The bread was excellent, the portions were very generous, and the service was warm and welcoming.

Good spot for locally cousins. We stoped by for a late evening bite. They had kitchen open until 21:30. We tried chicken soup, Greek salad and garlic bread. The soup was DELICIOUS! The bread was fine but unfortunately the Greek salad was a bit disappointing - the vegetables were tasteless and there was no dressing at all. The prices are not elevated. The staff was amazing and super nice, felt a bit like home. I would give it another try as the local is famous for seafood

Nestled in the heart of Protaras, Hippocampus Lounge Restaurant stands out as a must-visit culinary gem. This charming eatery boasts an inviting ambiance adorned with lush greenery and vibrant flowers, creating a serene dining experience. The menu is a delightful fusion of flavors, featuring both vegan and non-vegan options that cater to all palates. Diners can indulge in exquisite sushi, mouthwatering lamb chops cooked to perfection, and refreshing mango salad with chicken that tantalizes the taste buds.
We were recommended this place by a friend for shisha, but it turned out to be so much more than just that. The rooftop seating area is absolutely stunning, especially in the evening, with lovely views and a relaxed atmosphere. The staff were incredibly professional and attentive, creating a high-end experience from the moment we arrived. The sushi looked fantastic, so we ended up booking a table for dinner the next day — and it didn’t disappoint! Whether you're looking for a stylish spot for drinks, a romantic dinner, or quality shisha, this place ticks all the boxes. A solid 10/10.

We had a table on the rooftop and ordered gyros for starter which was very nice - enough for 2 people to share if you aren’t very hungry. We also ordered cocktails which were also very nice. For the mains we had crayfish risotto and lamb shank. The crayfish risotto was very cheesy and, as the portions are so big, towards the end was a bit too much. The lamb shank tasted gamey although overall the dish was nice. Overall I would say it is good value for money as the portions are so big and the drinks are very nice

Simply fantastic. We made a reservation on the rooftop. We were sitting on the side of the building which is maybe not the best spot. We started with a tasty cocktail. Then took the pasta which they served out of a Parmesan wheel with a little show. The main dishes were equally good. Nice taste, firm portions. All the while we were served by a friendly staff member with a good knowledge of wine. Could not be better.

I came here for a solo lunch one day in search of something green whilst my friends went for more gyros. I had a fantastic time. The environment was relaxed and comfortable, the staff wonderfully attentive but not overbearing, and the food delicious and fresh. It was so good I convinced other others to come and we went for dinner the very same day. The dinner food was even better, and the cocktails were beautiful and well balanced. My only recommendations would be to add cushions to the seats for additional comfort, and to up the ante on the desserts, which slightly let down the immaculate quality of everything else!

The food was really tasty and the service was kind and attentive. The fish was well marinated and cooked and I really liked the octopus. One mismanagement was with regards with the food order. We ordered a plethora of plates including starters and main dishes all of which came at once with the exception of the fish.It would be more correct of starter plates came first and then main dishes follow after some time and not all of them together.One additional minor negative point is the lack of a background music which would have made the environment feel more cosy. The pricing is on the higher end.

Giving 4 stars for the food as it was tasty and fresh. Its also a lovely spot on the seafront and the resturant has a nice feel. The service however is shockingly bad. About 15 waiters, 10 tables to serve that night and still service was terrible. Not greeted on arrival, no drinks order, had to call them over to order, difficult to get their attention even though they were just chatting to each other, an hour wait on main meal after starter (even asked if we wanted to see the desert menu!). I can put up with service that isn't great but jeez, this ruined our experience.

Wanted a Pad Thai noodles, but with prawns and not chicken. I was advised that the prawns would be an additional 5 euros-not an issue at all, but the manager was not prepared to remove any cost for the chicken not served. The manager Adam was totally ignorant and very rude. He could not wait to get rid of us, clearly because I kicked up a fuss for his behaviour. I was charged 14 euros just for noodles and then the additional 5 euros which I was advised for the prawns. Even an offer of 2 euros off the meal would have been acceptable, but he wasn’t budging! 2 euros would not have made any of us any richer, but he clearly did not want to look after his customers.

We ate here as part of the half board package at the nearby Sunrise Beach hotel. The kids said this was their favourite meal of the holiday, and it was delicious. Lots of "pan-Asian" favourites to choose from - Pad Thai, lemon chicken, lamb rogan josh etc. The chocolate tart is worth a visit alone. The service really set this restaurant apart. We generally found service to be warm and friendly everywhere in Cyprus but this place is special. The staff took the time to speak to the kids directly, advise them on the menu and answer their questions which was nice. We had a fabulous evening and would return if we are ever back in Protaras.

The restaurant is beautifully decorated, with a spacious and pleasant atmosphere. The service is very professional, but unfortunately, I must say that the food was quite disappointing. You offer a wide variety of dishes and many choices for customers, yet in each dish I could not find a distinctive flavor or anything truly special. The presentation of the food is indeed impressive, but the taste did not live up to the appearance, which left me disappointed. I truly regret having to say this.

Seating manager really lovely. Young waitress with glasses and curly hair was a bit arrogant . Asked if we could get desserts to take away and she came over to the table really cheesed off and just said “lovey short “what to take away?” . like we were asking for £100 back ! The food was okay - fish cakes thai to start which were lovely. Husband had belly pork with egg fried rice and I had the thai beef salad. Hubby really enjoyed his , but the beef in the salad was so tough - i was chewing all night . The flavour's were really repetitive and strong / vinegary , that I really wished I’d not ordered it as was really sikly . To end we had spring rolls and chocolate tart to take away which was really nice . Based on waitresses. I wouldn’t go back - as felt that we were a nuisance to the waitress . Not that she has to be over pleased to see us , that caring demeanour of the other restaurants along the strip were lacking .

We came here as a group of six for dinner. We didn’t have a reservation, but were seated immediately without waiting. The restaurant is located right in the heart of the main street — the atmosphere was great and the staff were very friendly. We ordered several dishes — the standout was definitely the pizza with pesto, pistachios, prosciutto, and burrata. Absolutely delicious! We also had the carbonara pasta, which I personally found less impressive. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be coming back!

Came for dinner without reservation. Waited approx. 5 min for sitting. We ordered borata salad, arenchini, pasta - one with pesto sauce and the other one carbonara sauce. Both starters were excellent. Didn't see the yolk in the carbonara, still it was tasty. I'm not fond of pesto sauce but it was tasty as well. They made a mistake with the kind of pasta we've ordered, and though we didn't mind they gave us immediately another dish with the correct pasta this time. Highly Service consciousness

We discovered this restaurant on day 3 of our holiday and proceeded to go there every night thereafter! Beautiful restaurant, delicious yet affordable food (especially the pasta and pizza!), great staff and a lovely atmosphere in general. Have to give a special mention to the waitor Stavros who served us each evening, he was so lovely, polite, friendly, attentive and professional! He deserves recognition for his hard work as he makes customers feel very welcome and taken care of, definitely part of the reason we kept going back. Highly recommend this place!

We tried this restaurant as pwrt kf our half board package with Sunrise Pearl. We had the burrata salad and diavolo pizza. The burrata salad was really delicious, it was a mix of chopped tomatoes, fresh pesto and rocket. The diavolo pizza was also tasty, but we adeed a lot of chili oil to make it spicier - this is our preference so if you are the same, ask for the chili oil. The staff are friendly and attentive.

We came in restaurant without reservatio, so we need to wait 3-4 min to give us a table. I go with my girlfriend and we are very satisfied. Food is delicious (i eat cannelone and she took carbonara with tagliatele). Both are very good taste except carbonara is little bit dry but still is good. Also i recommend a panna cotta, is delicious desert. The staffs is very kind and we wait for our food about 8-10min. Enjoy

Yianna Marie Restaurant is a vibrant beach bar that offers a delightful dining experience with an array of food and drinks. During the day, guests can savor coffee while taking in the beautiful beach, and as evening falls, they can indulge in delicious meals such as cheese and sushi platters. The restaurant also features refreshing cocktails and shisha for a relaxing time by the sea. On weekends, visitors can enjoy music from DJs until late at night.
First class service, hospitality and food. The ribeye was well seasoned and tender, seabass was the best my wife has had with the cream mash potato and my daughter loved the chicken nuggets. We were celebrating our Wedding anniversary tonight and the staff brought over a surprise deserts with sparklers. Very special memories created tonight. Will definitely return! Special mention to Leo and all the staff - thank you 🫶🏻 I would also recommend the amaretto sour 🍹

Yianna Marie in Protaras is a charming seaside restaurant with a beautiful atmosphere and attentive service, offering a blend of traditional Cypriot dishes and international favorites. During our recent visit, we had a mostly pleasant experience with a few noteworthy highlights and some areas for improvement. To start, the warm bread with garlic butter served at the beginning of the meal was a definite win – soft, fragrant, and comforting, setting a lovely tone for the evening. As a starter, we shared the fried halloumi with zucchini, and honestly, it was to die for. The halloumi was perfectly crisp on the outside and gooey on the inside, paired beautifully with lightly battered zucchini – a must-try dish. For the little ones, we ordered the kids’ chicken nuggets, which were ideal for my younger sister. They were simple, tasty, and served in a portion just right for a child – definitely a good family-friendly option. Moving on to the mains, the moussaka was rich and flavorful, with well-layered textures and spices. However, it leaned a bit too much on the oily side, which slightly took away from the otherwise authentic and comforting experience. The chicken fillet with mushroom ragu, on the other hand, was decent but somewhat underwhelming. It was a safe option that didn’t leave a lasting impression, lacking the bold flavors or creativity we hoped for. A delightful surprise came at the end of the meal – the staff offered us a complimentary portion of baklava. This sweet gesture rounded off the experience nicely and showcased the warm hospitality the restaurant is known for. Speaking of service, the staff were friendly and attentive throughout, always checking in to ensure we were enjoying ourselves and quick to accommodate any requests. If there’s one significant downside, it’s the portion sizes and pricing. While the food quality is generally good, the portions are on the smaller side, and the prices feel a bit steep compared to other local options. This might be something to consider, especially for larger groups or travelers on a budget. Yianna Marie is a stylish, family-friendly spot with standout starters and great service. It’s perfect for a relaxed evening out, especially if you’re looking to indulge in Cypriot flavors with a modern twist. Just be prepared for slightly smaller portions.

Honestly, for a place called Mr Cod, we expected it to taste way better than it did. The fish itself was good, but the breading lacked any seasoning at all and the fries were swimming in the oil from it. It is an enormous portion of fish and fries for the price though.

Went here for the first time this week even though I have been passing the place for years as we holiday every year in Cyprus. I never went in because I never trusted Cypriot restaurants to make a good fish and chips. To my absolute surprise it was wonderful! And as good as any fish and chips I’ve had in England. I got speaking to the owner, and found him to be a really nice guy and his staff are very good too. If your English, and miss fish and chips, it’s well worth travelling to parking is to the side and not an issue.

The staff are accommodating and even arranged a taxi for us when we were ready to leave. Situated in a splendid location with a sea view, the atmosphere is impressive and the decor is stunning.

It breaks my heart to right this however, I ordered the mixed grill kebab with no ptta (due to being gluten free). My parter ordered the pepperoni pizza. The dishes came out. No pepperoni on the pizza. My mixed grill, chicken was so dry, lamb was so over cooked you had to bash them against a brick wall to break it open. However the chips were lush. We complained The older guy in management didn't take this lightly and squared up to my partner. It got very serious and very uncomfortable however the the older guy didn't want to let this go. The staff told us to go to avoid more upset and dispute as the older guy was out of control. The older guy threatened and swore at us. We offered to pay for the drinks and chips we ate! But after the old guys behavior the restaurant said 'dont pay , just leave'. We left,,, but offered to pay several times Fo drinks and chips,but the older guy got too aggressive. Staff told us to leave to calm him down This was treated so unfairly. We offered to pay what we we actually had however we had to bow down to an older gentleman who totally overreacted to protect his bad business 😢 He shouldn't be working here and the younger guys know how to run it if given the chance. They have the experience and willpower to do it. I am So sad to do this however I need people to know the truth. The younger staff are doi f so well. They just need to let go of the fer staff or the older staff need to leg full stop.

Unfortunately, the restaurant didn’t live up to our expectations. The dishes were in an American style, but more on the fast-food side than restaurant quality. Both the salmon and the shrimp were served with the same heavy garlic-mayo sauce, which had quite an artificial taste and completely overpowered the dishes. The food lacked freshness and distinct seasoning. The service was fine, but overall the meal wasn’t good enough to make us want to come back. The prices were also quite high, especially considering that we recently ate at another restaurant serving fresh, Greek-style dishes and paid even a bit less there. Overall, we wouldn’t recommend it — there are much better restaurants in the area, and the high Google rating feels rather overrated.

We went last night and I had the set menu (2) which was tzatziki (delicious, creamy), lamb kleftiko (fell off the bone, tasty soft and crispy potatoes, fresh veg) and lemon sorbet (refreshing and tangy) for dessert. My partner had the soup of the day (creamy potato), chicken in jack Daniel’s sauce (plenty ot sauce, tasty fries) and then banana sorbet for dessert. We shared a large bottle of water, as well as a wine and a cocktail. The service was quick, attentive and friendly.

It does look cute but I don’t really understand the reviews at all. We waited for more than half an hour for our main course which was strange because the waiter was in such a rush to take away our appetizers (which by the way weren’t that tasty). Our cheeseburger was horrible. There was not even minced meat. It seemed like a fake meat patty frozen and put on the grill. The bun as well was probably the cheapest from the supermarket. After two bites we could even eat it anymore. The Prawn Pasta also had a bad taste. I couldn’t figure out if they in deed used prawns or shrimps … very heavy sauce. … When asked for the check , the waiter didn’t even bother to ask if everything was okay, when he clearly saw we barely ate. We couldn’t stay there anymore. And the staff was always ina. Rush and careless.

We came here with a group of 15 people and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. The service was extremely slow from the beginning, and several of the food and drink orders were brought out incorrectly. Even after sending back the mistaken items, they still appeared on the final bill, which was very frustrating and unprofessional. On top of that, it took an unreasonably long time just to receive the check and complete the payment. For a place that should be able to handle larger groups, the lack of organization and attention to detail was very clear. Interestingly, the day before our visit the service had been flawless, which shows that the experience really depends on which staff are on duty.

Faliros is a charming restaurant located in Paralimni, offering top-quality food and service. Visitors have raved about the delicious kleftiko and T-bone steak, as well as the attentive and professional staff. The warm bread rolls are a delightful start to the meal, and the set menu allows for customization of starters and desserts. The restaurant's spacious interior and garden create a chic ambiance for diners to enjoy their meals.
Just that little bit nicer for a special occasion. The meals will cost about 5 euros more than in a different restaurant, but it's worth it. Lovely inside, excellent service in nice surroundings.

Beautiful dishes! Friendly staff! Competitive pricing but a worthwhile experience overall! The only unfortunate thing is we ordered a traditional salad without onion, and we did find a piece of onion in it.Nevertheless the issue was quickly resolved. I recommend!

Great food. Staff were all very helpful. Tomahawk steak was excellent. Children’s menu offered. Did find it a little strange that an option of jacket potato or chips are offered, then every meal came with mashed potatoes.

I hv travelled many places, this is a very good 9+ Starter Prawn Coctail, you will NOT have had a PC as good as this. FALIROS Special Steak, with veg & Mash, but also comes with baked Potato 9.2/10 ( because the Carrots were canned.) Try it, i think you will be pleased. Well done Faliros Chef & Staff.

EVIVA by Tower House is a small family-owned restaurant with traditional decor and delicious food. The staff is welcoming and accommodating, and the atmosphere is romantic and light. It offers a wide variety of Mediterranean cuisine at great prices, as well as shisha service. Everything is clean and tidy, making it a great place to visit for any occasion.
Great bar serving good food along with a great friendly service. Reasonable prices and competitive along with other bars visited here in Protaras. Staff deserve a big mention, always smiling and welcoming, on the ball with extra ice etc and when the glass is getting on the low side. Sports shown on multiple screens, pool table at the back of the inside part of the bar. Highly recommended and always busy of an evening.

I visited FLORA All-Day Dining & Sports Bar for lunch and ordered a medium-rare T-bone steak. The first steak arrived after about 20–25 minutes but was unfortunately cooked closer to medium-well. I understand steaks continue to cook slightly after being served, but given it was served on a wooden plate—not a hot iron one—the change in doneness shouldn’t have been that significant. When I raised the issue, the waiter argued that the overcooking was due to me not eating the steak immediately, which I found unprofessional. Thankfully, another staff member stepped in and offered to replace it. However, I then waited another 25–30 minutes for the second steak, which seems excessive given the restaurant was nearly empty. On a positive note, the second steak was cooked perfectly and tasted excellent. The menu offers a great variety of options, the location is ideal—close to the beach—and the atmosphere is quite pleasant. Pros: • Delicious food (once done right) • Extensive menu • Great location and atmosphere Cons: • Some staff members lack professionalism and experience • Long wait times for food, even during off-peak hours Overall, FLORA has potential and serves great food, but service quality and speed definitely need improvement.

Food is lovely. The Halloumi bites are huge and amazing! Good affordable cocktails. Friendly staff. Ate here for breakfast nearly every morning as it was included in our stay at the Flora Hotel. The pancakes are a little different to what I'm used to, seem to be fried and a little hard, but edible, omlette is really nice and they are happy for you to swap things or add extras (Ask for 2 sausages on the roll as you only get 1 which isnt enough).

Vangelis Tavern - ΤΑΒΕΡΝΑ ΒΑΓΓΕΛΗΣ is a popular Mediterranean restaurant known for its generous portions and affordable prices. The menu features a variety of authentic Cypriot dishes with a modern twist, including mezes, halloumi, baklava, seafood, game dishes, and T-bone steaks.
We had a very nice meal at Vangelis. We were very hungry and ordered two meals mix grill and sea food plater. First was brought home made bread with salty butter. Perfect to start your stomach working and after those delicious sets came. All was fresh, tasty and tender. We were fully satisfied. The only point I would say to me the sea food set could be a bit more salty but it’s a matter is taste. Will come again to try something else. The personnel were friendly and polite 🙏👍

With its good food, reasonable prices, and welcoming atmosphere, it's a great choice for a meal in Cyprus.
The best food I have had in cyprus and omg the fillet steak in Jack d sauce was the best I have ever had anywhere in the world. The staff were amazing and the desserts were wonderful. The night we spent here was one of the best nights we have spent in cyprus. You must come here! Nikos is the best waiter!

Saw this place at the top of the strip, good deals offered for set menu, my partner had the Moussaka and enjoyed it and I had the steak, nothing special but as this is a 3 course set menu didn't expect much, there were hairs in my veg which put me off my main. The halloumi starter was 3 bits of halloumi and some lettuce. Baclava dessert was good. Waiters were nice however they were trying to get people to sit at the front of the restaurant next to a busy bus stop with people arriving from the Waterpark, which wasn't very relaxing. Good value, and large portions but not the best food!

Horrible seafood cocktail = several frozen shrimps drowned in mayonnaise :) Margarita (cocktail 🍸) = tequila+sprite, no salt on the glass. We could hardly find ANY seafood in a flipping SEAFOOD SALAD!!! Well, there were surimi sticks, 1 shrimp and one mussel. Disappointed is the least offensive word that comes to my mind... Avoid at all costs!!!

Restaurant wasn't too busy so we called in for Dinner, ordered the Lamb Kleftiko and Garlic Bread starter plus a bottle of Chardonnay. Wine and Garlic Bread soon turned up, Wine was excellent (French) though the Garlic Bread was a let down, thin Pitta bead, not thet hick stuff we get back in Blighty dripping in butter. The main courses took some time to arrive, not a long wait, but considering only the outdoor area was vacated , not as quick as expected. Lamb was tasty, I had a salad with it, excellent quality, plenty of it, and potato's. Only minus point was it could have done with a nice Mint Sauce and some butter for the spuds, I didn't ask so my fault really. Overall good food and friendly staff and a nice Bailey's with ice on the house before leaving.

Went there as a part of half board deal at Sunrise Beach. Very good food, we had octopus and spinach keftedes (kolokhytokeftedes), for main we had chicken souvlaki and seabass. And finished off with a slice of orange cake with mastic icecream (an aquired taste, but I like trying new things). Our waiter was a lovely multilingual gentleman. We loved the nicely sized portions, the restaurant we went to the night before served enormous plates. Kyklos felt a bit more sophisticated.

Came here while staying half board at Sunrise Jade. The offer was that we could order a starter, main and dessert each. We ordered the calamari and tzatziki for starters.

The waiter with the bald head and glasses was lovely- super polite and attentive.

Every restaurant experience starts with good customer service, and there was zero here from the start! we waited 10 minutes before having to ask for a drinks menu, the bare minimum of customer service! The drinks order was taken along with our food order ( no lamb klefitico was available, which is a staple of Cypriot food) The wine arrived shortly afterwards and was awful! We've been here for a week, and the local wine has been amazing in all the other restaurants. Unfortunately, this wasn't our biggest disappointment. My husband's mixed grill was served cold, and my seafood dish was very light on the seafood front! My husband's mixed grill was returned to the kitchen and arrived back hotter than the first time, but it was so dry it was hard to eat! None of the staff (and there were many) asked if we were okay or how the food was (maybe they feared our response)! No dessert menu was offered or even an apology for the poor food and service. All in all a bad experience that we won't be repeating. Avoid at all costs if you enjoy good food and customer service.

Excellent food and service. Stumbled upon this restaurant down a side street coming up from the beach and was pleasantly surprised! Lamb chops are a must! Very good choice on the menu, meat and fish.

This is a wonderful, family run restaurant. The chef, justifiably, takes pride in his cooking. I can definitely recommend the fillet steak diane. You get to see it being cooked and the quality and the taste is perfect.

The service was excellent and the price considering what you got was extremely reasonable. I would definitely recommend it without hesitation.

My wife and I arrived in protaras on Monday evening, so to date we've had five meals out ( which were all good )before eating at sonja restaurant last night. I was surprised initially at how bit the restaurant was. We had no reservation but were warmly accepted and shown to our table. The staff were all very friendly and thought out our dealings very professional. The atmosphere was lovely, soft music playing in the background and no traffic noise could be heard. The menu had a great variety and I chose a slow cooked shank of lamb, Something I wouldnt normally choose back home. The meat was so tender and mash potatoes creamy. My wife had a spicy chicken dish, although maybe a little dry, the flavours were very tasty. To finish off a lovely night we shared the orange cake with ice cream. Both of us thought it amazing. We've another four nights in protaras and will certainly be back.

Although the name is nameless, this place deserves to have their name known. Andreas and his family runs this place, an authentic Cypriotic Greek restaurant, with a cozy atmosphere. The food, is outstanding. I came here two times in the span of a week for their mixed souvlaki, which came with outstanding potatoes, meat and sausages. Potionwise it’s generous and you get more quality than the price indicates. Fresh cut, fresh made, with a flavor that outperformed any other place I’ve eaten for the past week here in Cyprus. I highly recommend their 5 euro local wine with the food. Karaffs of 250 ml which is about 3 glasses of wine. I will definitely come back here and eat again.

We had a serious craving for fresh kalamari, village salad and proper Cyprus style chips, this place absolutely delivered!!! Google listed this restaurant in the area, so with the excellent reviews and of course the intriguing name of ‘Nameless’, this certainly lived up to the hype!! The food was full of flavour and beautifully cooked. We tried both the baby kalamari and the rings - both were excellent but the baby kalamari in particular was melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The salad was crisp and fresh, the chips so moreish and the warm pittes with dips just topped a great meal. We came just at the start of dinner service mid-week so wasn’t busy. Service was genuinely warm and attentive throughout - everyone was friendly without being overbearing. It’s clear they take pride in what they do.

Delicious, good quality seafood. Splendid staff makes sure that there is no shortage of wine in your glass. A “seafood meze” consisting of about 8 plates will make you feel full for the rest of your trip. Be sure to visit this place, preferably book a table in advance. Some minor suggestions for the restaurant: dishes could be served a bit slower, and no TV in sight (with war news) would be appreciated imo.

Wine list very expansive including some Cyprus wines around €20 a bottle. Definitely worth a visit especially for special occasions. More pricey than some other restaurants but worth the investment for top quality food.

The restaurant is located at the end of the coastal road in Protaras and has a beautiful, spacious outdoor area. The lady handling the reservations was very polite and helpful. Although the restaurant was full, the atmosphere remained calm and pleasant. The menu offers a wide variety of options to suit all dietary preferences, which is definitely a plus. As a starter, we were offered warm homemade bread and a pumpkin soup, which was absolutely delicious. For our main dishes, we ordered the tuna poke bowl, stuffed chicken, and some sushi – everything was extremely tasty and made with high-quality ingredients. The prices were also very reasonable for the quality of the food. We were served by a gentleman who was very kind and attentive. However, there were a couple of negatives that stood out. When we first sat at our table, we waited for at least 10 minutes before anyone came over to bring us menus. Additionally, during our visit, there was a photographer taking pictures of some dishes. At one point, a dish was served to the table behind us, and the photographer wanted to capture a photo of it. Apparently, I was in his shot, and he signaled me to move my head. I found this quite rude – I don’t think it's appropriate for guests to be disturbed because someone needs to photograph food. Overall, it’s a very good restaurant with delicious food, and it's definitely worth a visit. With a bit more attention to customer service and consideration during in-house photography, the experience could be even better.

We came here on a busy Friday night without booking for two people, was very busy so would recommended booking ahead! Due to this the service was a little slow/forgetful but we understood we were lucky to get a table! We had ribeye and sirloin steak, with sides of our choice, beautifully presented great portions and the steaks were incredible, cooked to perfection. Would not recommend the garlic bread, taste good but very small and basic for €6. Drinks not too badly priced compared to other places.

Great Dining Experience at The Red Indian! We had a wonderful meal at The Red Indian and can't recommend it enough! The beef curry was rich and flavorful, while the Jack Daniel Steak and the signature Red Indian Steak were both perfectly cooked and packed with taste. Surprisingly, the Buffalo wings really stood out — deliciously spicy and bursting with flavor, they were a highlight of our meal! The portion sizes were just right, and we found the menu to be very reasonably priced for the quality and quantity of food. Whether you're in the mood for hearty steaks or something with a kick, this place has it all. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a satisfying meal and great value!

The place looks quite dated, both interior-wise, the menu items, and...well, basically the whole feel. But the food itself? Nothing to complain about there. We both had different steak dishes, and it was really good. Great quality meat, thick, tasty sauce. My steak was slightly more cooked than the requested medium. But, as the taste was still really good, I had no issues with it.

My family and I visited Happy Days Restaurant in Protaras around 10 PM and politely asked if we could have something to eat. What followed was absolutely disgraceful. We weren’t greeted—we were confronted by an older man, who appeared to be the manager. His behavior was appalling: rude, aggressive, and completely disrespectful. From the moment he approached us, he treated us like we were a problem, like we had no right to be there. He made us feel like pests—subhuman. I have never, in my life, been spoken to or treated in such a demeaning way. We decided to order light meals, mostly because we felt so unwelcome and uncomfortable. This man then interrogated me about my order, rudely telling me I had “never ordered that before,” as if he had any right to question our choices. To make things worse, he then walked away and openly complained about us to a waitress within earshot. To his credit, a very kind staff member later came to us and apologized for the manager’s behavior. But by then, the damage was done. The bitter taste was already in our mouths—not from the food, but from the treatment. I will be taking this further. I am Cypriot myself, and I am ashamed that someone like this is allowed to serve tourists. It’s an embarrassment to our country. Visitors deserve to experience the warmth and hospitality Cyprus is known for—not this kind of hostility and humiliation. This man should not be in a position of power in any restaurant, let alone one that represents our island to the world. Absolutely unacceptable.

The fish specials on the board outside caught our eye, so we decided to give this place a try. However, we were disappointed to find out the fish was frozen. We ordered souvlaki instead - it was okay but nothing special. The chicken needed more seasoning and tasted pretty basic. For almost 35 euros (two dishes and two drinks), we expected better quality. The drinks were weak, especially the Aperol spritz. The staff was nice and friendly though. Honestly, for this price you can find much better food nearby for around 20 euros. It felt like something I could make at home rather than a proper restaurant meal.

Absolutely incredible. Went last night at around 10.30pm not expecting to get in. So glad we did. Everything was perfect and FRESH. The low price does not reflect on the top quality of the food, the owner has no real interest in profit he just loves feeding people. I had the most beautiful seabass caught that day. The steaks were perfection personified and don't get me started on the prawns... Best I've ever had. Don't overlook this hidden gem. You'll thank me. 😊

We ate at Nissiotis restaurant for mine and my wife’s wedding reception this week, and it was absolutely amazing. To be frank, not a lot really went right with this wedding week. We’ve felt pretty let down and were in desperate need of a win. The lovely staff at Nissiotis gave us that win. Booking the reception was incredibly easy and laid back. We met up with the restaurant owners and discussed dates, times and our general plan for the evening. They were so easy-going and even made some suggestions that we agreed with, which made the night spectacular. Many restaurants have an extra fee for wedding receptions, and so we were expecting the same here. This was not the case. We were told, “What you see on the menu is what you will pay, that is all.” It was made very clear that at this restaurant they care more about their guests having a great experience, than profits. The cost of the food was very fair and surprisingly low for its excellent quality. As planned, the tables were decorated with white cloth and candles. starters arrived almost instantly once everybody was sat down. Waiting staff struggled fitting all of the food on the tables - there was so much of it!!! Throughout starters the staff ensured nobody’s champagne glass was empty, until all the champagne was gone - a very special touch! Mains were absolutely delicious, i would recommend the seabass or the mixed grill. Throughout the entire evening our guests needs were seen to instantly and every single person had a night to remember. I would like to thank EVERYONE at nissiotis for the lovely food, amazing staff and beautiful venue. We would definitely recommend, and will be eating here again soon!!!

The souvlaki tasted good, but there was nothing special to uplevel it. The food was overpriced, which was expected given the location on a touristy beach.

Overall, this beach front lunch spot is a fantastic choice for a quick and satisfying meal. With its fast service, reasonable prices, and the added convenience of a takeaway option, it's an excellent place to visit whether you're looking for a sit-down meal or a beachside takeaway experience. The restaurant is spacious, providing ample seating for guests. It was impressive how quickly the food arrived at the table, allowing us to enjoy our meal without any unnecessary delays. Considering the prime location right on the beach, the bill for the meal was reasonable. The restaurant offered good value for the money spent, which is always a plus. * On the downside, people are allowed to smoke (pretty much everywhere in Cyprus), which for me wasn't pleasing at all.

Tasty seafood - excellent, fresh and tender grilled sea bream; fried baby calamari not too bad either. Sweet & delicious fresh orange juice. Superb potato chips (from Cyprus potatoes i presume!). Has the continental dishes too - eg. Chicken, sandwiches, burgers, etc. Very 'humble', friendly and attentive service. Right by the beach, so if you are there at the right time, then you can see the beautiful sun set. Mid-priced for Cyprus - not cheap but not too expensive either. Free parking is available on premises.

We visited for lunch (4 adults and 2 toddlers). The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating and made you feel welcome. The food was of great quality, really tasty and fresh. We ordered 2 portions baby calamari, a portion of octopus and bream. We also had extra pita bread and a salad and 2 baby calamari as starters. So if you are Cypriot maybe you need to add salad and pitta extra to your portion (we eat a lot in Cyprus).

Nope, this isn't the one. Nothing felt authentic, more like a generic restaurant rather than proper Cypriot cooking. I don't think this place appreciates that some customers come to Cyprus with a very deep understanding of real Greek Cypriot cooking. It is no good having a restaurant that looks good but doesn't deliver what it promises. Service was fine but totally lacking warmth. With so many great restaurants on the island, this one isn’t worth the stop.

I was really disappointed with my visit. It was recommended as a funcy luxiary fish tavern. I don’t mind paying a higher price when the food and service are worth. The quality of the food was no better — if not worse — than what you’d get at a simple taverna by the sea. The waiters also seemed inexperienced some not speaking English nor Greek. At the time of the visit it was at 40% capacity, not very busy. Interior was nice and parking was easy.

Amazing experience from start to finish. The service was excellent and the food truly exceeded expectations. We ordered the set menu for 2, and switched one of the dishes to the lemon chicken which was without doubt the best I have had in Cyprus. The sweet and sour chicken was also excellent, as were all of the dishes, and the price was very reasonable for the quality. It is a family-run business that really deserves to be praised. Sadly, it is only open during the summer season (until the end of October, reopening in April), but it’s definitely worth visiting while it is open.

The meat dishes were cooked to perfection – juicy and tender. The salads were fresh and tasty, and they offered various kinds of halloumi, which was a lovely touch.

I didn’t even manage to take a photo of the mussels 😛 we ate them so fast, they were incredible. Definitely get the Greek salad too, and everything else you see in the photos I’m attaching 🫶🏻 all the seafood was amazing! For dessert we had baklava ✨ it was quite big, so you can easily share it between two people💗💗

Everything about this place is great, especially the staff. We had the mussels, grilled calamari and swordfish; the calamari was a bit overcooked and our waiter insisted on replacing the dish. We got the octopus instead and a complementary salad, all of which was delicious. Will be returning the next time we are in the area! *Edit to say the only thing better than the food was the service

We had a lovely dinner there last night. Had the fish platter for two with half kilo mussels, half kilo of prawns and grilled squid. It was all cooked to perfection with salad and potatoes os a side, really great value. The menu has something for everyone, definitely be back. The staff are also great cant do enough for you. Definitely worth a visit!

A very authentic and delicious Cypriot cuisine in a well-kept restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. The grilled souvlaki are excellent, served with potatoes and fresh salad. We also had fresh fish from the grill, which was cooked to perfection – everything tasted wonderfully fresh. This is not a fancy fine-dining place, but honest, hearty food. It seems to be a family-run business, and the hospitality is truly warm and welcoming. Special thanks to Adonis for the great tips for our next day trip and the lovely conversation. Denise & Ben

Zafeiros Bar & Restaurant is a cozy beachfront restaurant with a lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. It offers a great view of the sea and accommodates all party sizes. The food is reasonably priced and delicious, with generous portion sizes. Additionally, it features a large play area with a bouncy castle, making it an ideal spot for families to relax while children have fun. Despite occasional noise from the surroundings, this restaurant provides an enjoyable dining experience by the sea.
28th May 2025 Bacon and Halloumi wrap - this was amazing! Slightly toasted with some balsamic vinegar in the mix ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chicken avocado wrap - a firm favourite for my wife. Again, slightly toasted and stuffed full of filling. Dips and breads were great too Pancakes were huge and plenty of fruit. The kids play area is a God send with the little ones. A couple of hours of fun had on a windy day. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Went looking to have fresh fish, and this place didn't disappoint. The sea bream had most of the bones removed and was cooked on the BBQ removing almost all the skin. The meat was moist and flaked away when removing it from what bones were left. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Extra ice was never a problem, the complementary drinks were old local liquor's and these were excellent. So it's question time, would I go back and answer is yes, and did.

Great location, and perfect for the kids to run around on the play area and 3 bouncey castles! The food wasn't the best though, which was a shame because the staff were lovely. Chicken was extremely dry and came with plain chips in an extremely bland meal for the price. It wouldn't put me off going back though as it was probably just the choice of meal rather than the poor quality.

I recently visited this restaurant and was extremely disappointed by the service. From the moment we sat down, we knew exactly what we wanted to order, but the waiter insisted we wait until other customers who arrived before us had placed their orders. This is an unusual and unfriendly policy that shows little regard for customer convenience. When our turn finally came, the waiter—who claimed to be the owner—was rude, dismissive, and ultimately told us she did not want to serve us. This was humiliating and completely unacceptable. Hospitality is about making customers feel welcome and valued, and unfortunately, this experience was the opposite. I cannot recommend this restaurant based on the disrespectful and unprofessional treatment we received. Thank you for your response. While I understand your policy regarding order of arrival, my feedback was based on my genuine experience and how the situation made us feel as customers. I appreciate your clarification, but I respectfully maintain that the interaction did not meet the standards of courtesy and hospitality I would expect. My intention was to provide honest feedback so that future guests might enjoy a more positive experience.

Despite being packed on weekends, the service remains fast and efficient. The restaurant is highly recommended for a dinner date or family dinner, offering great value for money.
Likely the best in the area. Get the seafood meze. Simply lovely. The food was so much that by the time the last two dishes arrived, we couldn’t even try them as we were full. Views, service, and quality of food is top class. Highly recommended.

I’ve been coming to Cyprus since the 90s, and this little souvlakia restaurant in Protaras is hands down one of the best places I’ve eaten in years. It has all the charm and authenticity of the old Cyprus I grew up loving - nothing pretentious, just honest, delicious food made with care. The hospitality here is on another level. You feel truly welcomed, like you’re eating at a friend’s home rather than just a restaurant. In a touristy area like Protaras, finding a gem like this is rare, and it makes the experience even more special. As for the food – exquisite. Perfectly grilled souvlakia, hand made Cypriot chips, fresh salads, and flavors that take you straight back to how Cypriot food is meant to taste. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and visit. I couldn’t recommend it more highly.

We spent 15 days in Cyprus and tried a different restaurant every night, so we’ve got a solid base for comparison. The highlight here? Definitely the view. Absolutely stunning: palm trees, ocean, and the marina all in one picture-perfect scene. Hard to beat. The food was a mixed experience. The lasagna was actually pretty good and the portion was fair. The risotto didn’t impress, we’ve had much better elsewhere. The carbonara was a small portion and way too heavy on the bacon. We were really hoping for more traditional Italian flavors, especially in a place that looks this nice. Service was just okay,not particularly warm, but not rude either. Prices were average for the area, nothing too crazy. Overall, the view’s amazing, the setting is beautiful, but the food and experience didn’t quite live up to the expectations.

Always a good night at Ttapis. The service is what makes this such a smooth dinner place. They are so efficient. There is no menu during summer... it's meze.

The food is lovely here, we had a meze which is plentiful, all the dishes were freshly cooked and you definitely won't go hungry as there is a great mix of food for everyone which just keeps coming. I knocked off a star for 2 reasons...all the food seems to come at once which doesnt give you a chance to actually enjoy the meal as it feels like you're being rushed, the waiters should be more observant instead of bringing 3 or 4 main dishes as they just sit there getting cold as we're still eating the starters. We had to ask 3 times for the bill so the service could be a bit better in that respect. All in all, the food was good which is the main thing.

I have been to Ttapis many times over the years but this year they have really downgraded. I am not sure if it's because they have a lot of work but I am sure we won't be visiting again. We went for a dinner without reservation on Sunday night (4 people + baby boy). They put us on a small table for 4 with my boy at the angle in a baby chair... There were lots of other big tables which they said are booked but I didn't see anybody coming. We ordered 4 meze - they kept giving us food very fast as you are in McDonald's without even having space for all the plates. All the waiters were busy even to take away the empty platters. Regarding the food - it was plain and disappointing. Best things in the whole meze were the souvlaki, loukaniko and corn on the cob. In general, we won't be coming again. I am so sorry that you have become so commercial, guys. Customers really matter actually.

Super S Restaurant is a family-owned establishment known for its warm and welcoming atmosphere. The friendly and attentive staff always greet guests with a smile. The food is of high quality, deliciously cooked, and served in generous portions. Despite the casual setting with plastic tables and chairs, the restaurant offers fantastic food, extremely friendly service, excellent value, and complimentary treats like pickled vegetables, bread with tzatziki, and even a complimentary drink at the end of the meal.
We visited Super S after seeing a review on Cyprus Insight. We wanted a proper traditional Cyprus restaurant which is exactly what we got. We were greeted and sat down and within seconds, the menus were provided along with warm bread, the tastiest homemade tzatziki ever, olives and other nibbles. My husband ordered Beef Stifado which was absolutely delicious and home made served with rice and chips and I ordered a plain omelette and chips. Both our meals were absolutely gorgeous. I ordered a beer which came served in a bucket of ice and my husband ordered freshly squeezed orange which was the freshest served juice ever. After our meals, we were offered complimentary watermelon which was so fresh and beautiful. The owner and his wife (I believe) provide the most amazing home cooked food and look after you like family and I can't understand how they keep prices so low. Incredible service by people who are the most wonderful and welcoming hosts with the most gorgeous food on the island. Only disappointment that we didn't get to go more often.

We chose this restaurant because it has "pizza" in the name, so we expected it to be their specialty. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed. The pizza dough tasted like flatbread - very poor quality. The only thing that was decent was the sauce. I'm honestly not sure why there are so many positive reviews. Maybe it's okay as something to eat with beer, but as a proper meal it was really weak. We also ordered Aperol spritz. Again, disappointment. For a place that offers a wide range of cocktails, the quality was surprisingly bad. The drink was watered down and the prosecco was completely flat. As this is my favorite drink, I know exactly how it should taste, and this wasn't it. When we mentioned to the staff that we weren't satisfied, they made no effort to fix the situation or make it right. The only positive thing about this place was the nice decor. Overall, very disappointing experience.

The Oscar Family Restaurant provides a comfortable and personal atmosphere with delicious Greek/Cypriot food. It is definitely worth a visit!
Ate here last night as highly recommended on social pages, you won’t be disappointed. Food on another level, class menu, friendly staff, quick service. Do give here a visit at least once and I’m sure you would come back.

I was told by a local to try Oscar restaurant, and I'm glad I did. The service was swift, soon had ordered drinks and they were on the table very quickly, we then placed our food order, I had the pork fillets oscar and it was top quality, for the price paid top restaurants would of been double the cost. The pork was tender with king prawns onto, the veg was cooked perfectly asparagus especially. I tried the other halves kleftiko and the lamb was so tender when I go back there I'll have that. I've already answered my question of would I go it's a definite yes.

Good food, very welcoming owner/family. My lamb chops were over cooked but I didn’t mention it but the owner noticed and apologised and cooked more chops for me taking away the chops I hadn’t eaten. Very apologetic and thanked us for letting them correct the error. Extremely impressed with their attention. Thank you

A nice little local place, recommend going before the rush and the staff are very friendly so the service was excellent. Food was excellent and a good place to chat with friends in a relaxed environment. The service did become slower as they got busier. The place does look fairly basic and they didn’t seem to utilise the upstairs balcony with could be turned into a romantic eating area. Reasonable pricing and ideal place to stop off at the beginning of the strip

Restaurant
Braseiro, Brazilian Steakhouse, is a carnivore's paradise that offers an all-you-can-eat experience like no other. Guests begin their culinary journey at a delightful salad bar, complemented by crispy chips and cheesy bread. The real star of the show comes next: waiters serve up skewers of succulent meats right at your table, including lamb, pork, chicken drumsticks, steak, and chorizo—each expertly carved to your liking.
I visited this restaurant and opted for the all-you-can-eat menu. The buffet offered a good selection of starters and salads, all of which were fresh and well-prepared. For the main course, I tried the chicken, beef, and pork. Each was cooked properly, tender, and flavorful. The variety of meats available, including sausages, multiple beef cuts, and lamb, was commendable. The all-you-can-eat option provides good value for money, allowing diners to sample a wide range of dishes at their own pace. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the staff were attentive and courteous throughout the meal. Overall, it was a satisfactory dining experience. I would consider returning to explore more of their offerings. Follow me for more on Insta @sofis_food_passport & TikTok @sofisfoodpassport

The service was excellent, especially Marios at the reception who welcomed us perfectly. We chose the all-you-can-eat menu, which included many different cuts of meat as well as fish options like salmon. They also served us French fries and fresh cheesy bread, while the salad bar had countless salad and dip options. Overall, the experience was very nice – some of the meats I enjoyed a lot, others a bit less, which is the reason I’m giving 4 stars. The meal ended with delicious grilled pineapple with cinnamon. Highly recommended!

Having visited a similar restaurant in Doha back in 2015 - well now I'm in Cyprus I thought I would try Braseiro. There are two sittings at 18:00 and 21:00 I was told. I went for the 18:00 one. It was very quiet to begin with but started filling up about 19:00. The salad bar was small but with an ample enough selection - but you're here for the meat and the salad is only to compliment the meal. Being an early sitting the varieties of meat came round rather quickly and your plate started to fill up with meat. But hey I wasn't complaining. There was no traffic light system as in Doha which you flipped from red (hold fire on the meat) and green (I'm ready for more). What's important to remember is when they carve the meat to ask for more slices otherwise you might only get one piece. Once the server knows your style they usually ask if you want more slices. As the evening progressed you were usually approached again or ask if you happened to miss a type of meat. But bear in mind in the later sittings it gets more crowded and was told in really busy times they could have between 160 to over 200. So make sure you ask for more meat when served otherwise you could miss out because of the numbe of diners. They served Lamb, Pork, Chicken, Chorizo, Gammon and 2 types of steak. As to how well the meat was - well being a bit of a carnivor it was cooked perfectly! I really cannot complain. As for desert the Cinnamon Spiced Char-grilled Pineapple was to die for... Certainly cleared your palate after all that meat and I had quite a few refills. Overall I cannot complain at all. The setting was good and the staff excellent - officiant, friendly and courteous. So yes I would highly recommend Braseiro Brazilian Steakhouse and intend to go back again in the future.

Stayed at sunrise jade, here you get unlimited salad bar then the meats come round and you can have as much as you want. Service was great, food was fresh and we both left full and satisfied. Would recommend unlike other restaurants included in the deal.

Darren S — Google review
We were only in town for a week, with plenty of dining options to choose from — yet we kept coming back to this restaurant. It’s a paradise for meat lovers. The meat is juicy, perfectly roasted, and absolutely mouthwatering. The all-you-can-eat concept is great. You can choose from a wide variety: beef, pork, chicken, sausage, salmon and enjoy as much as you like. Each cut was expertly cooked and absolutely delicious. Alongside the meats, you get french fries, bread, and access to a well-stocked salad bar. Personally, I skipped the fries and bread — the salad bar alone was more than satisfying with lots of fresh tasting items. I tried two different red wines during our visits which were both really tasty and paired beautifully with the meaty menu. Service was excellent: friendly staff, quick responses, and no long waits. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxed, making it easy to enjoy a laid-back yet high-quality dining experience. Considering the quality of the meat, the pricing is more than fair. If you’re looking for the best-tasting meat in the area, this place is probably it. We’ll definitely be coming back.

A very nice place for dinner. We took the all you can eat deal. The staff were very nice and respectful for our requests, food was pretty good. The pineapple desert was surprisingly delicious! When I think about the taste of the meat and the side dishes I think the price was just a bit too high, but overall a very nice place with a fancy vibe in it
שגיב ר — Google review
One of the worst all-you-can-eat experiences I’ve had. Most meats were either overcooked or undercooked — pork came raw at one point, which is unsafe, and the steak was served well-done instead of medium-rare. Service was mixed, with some polite staff but others clearly unhappy to serve us. Would not recommend.

Just Italian Ristorante is a modern family-friendly spot with a minimalist design that transitions into a wine bar. It offers a cool and breezy atmosphere in the summer and warmth during winter. The restaurant is known for its outstanding meat cuts, especially the dried age T-bone, which is described as heavenly. The courteous and swift service adds to the dining experience.
Delicious pizza and pasta! Their pizza is thin and great, with great dough! Very tasty, with fresh, good quality ingredients. Their pasta was delicious also! Big portions, properly cooked and tasty all together... We liked a lot that they can serve any pasta dish with gluten free spaghetti or penne! Good wine list, very good and professional service, good prices also.

It’s become a little tradition for my partner and I to come here every time we’re in Cyprus, it’s one of our favourite restaurants and it never fails to be an absolute pleasure. They are very accommodating for gluten free needs, the manager & staff are very welcoming and friendly, the restaurant itself is very clean and lovely. I only wish they had a restaurant in my location!

We visited for the first time for Italian food . Although we didn’t have a reservation the staff were very friendly and found us a cozy table. We ordered pasta with prawns and tomato sauce and one risotto with seafood . Both were amazing , very tasty , but that tomato sauce (which appears to be the restaurant’s signature sauce) was extremely tasty and blended great with the pasta and the prawns. I highly recommend ordering pasta with that sauce although the risotto plate was great as well, so you really can’t go wrong with any choice. The atmosphere is not that great , but the food and friendliness of the staff really make up for it.

Absolutely amazing experience! The food was incredibly tasty – every dish was full of authentic Italian flavor. The steak was cooked to perfection and one of the best I’ve had in a long time. On top of that, the staff were extra friendly and made us feel truly welcome from the moment we walked in. Highly recommend if you’re in Protaras and craving quality Italian cuisine with top-notch service!
Elena M — Google review
We visited Just Italian twice during our two-week holiday, and we were absolutely impressed both times. The stylish and high-quality atmosphere immediately stood out, but what really won us over was the excellent selection of dishes and the outstanding service. We tried the tomato soup, pasta, and pizza—and everything tasted simply sensational. If an Italian restaurant in Cyprus can make you feel like you’re actually on holiday in Italy, I think that says it all, doesn’t it? 😊
Ibo Ü — Google review
Located in the heart of Kapparis, Just Italian has its doors open for everyone. The restaurant cannot be missed by its unique architectural design. I was fortunate enough to be able to try their amazing risotto as a starter. The risotto was deliciously cooked and the presentation of all of the dishes was spectacular. I'd like to separately mention the portion sizes as they are large enough to fill your stomach and save some for later. I also got to try the pizza which was also incredible. The dough used was thin and the pizza had a unique crust. For the end we decided to try some desserts from the menu. I got the Espresso Affoghato. The mix of coffee and vanilla ice cream made for a stunning dessert. Overall, Just Italian managed to exceed my expectations and leave unforgettable memories associated with Protaras.

I went to eat pizza there, and actually I'm Italian and the restaurant is not Italian, just they using the name, the pizza was awful,they served just in few minutes, I don't know how can people eating that kind of pizza.. overpriced 17 euro for a pizza 🍕 that's crazy... Never come back. Not Italian experience at all what a shame...

My wife and I went for Dinner on Friday night having understood that lots of locals eat at this restaurant which was what we wanted as well as wanting to eat in a more traditional restaurant not the tourist oriented restaurants around. We were greeted with warm local bread wrapped in a towel and butter. The bread was simply divine😋😋 I had Kleftiko which flavourful and my wife had the lamb chops. The house white wine was nice and dry, great value too! The owner was very pleasant and engaging as he came to our table to say hello, even remembering my name 😃. The maître d was very efficient and ran a fine ship, the staff were very friendly. Pinia was buzzing with lots of people with their families. Our bill for 2 main courses, wine and the delicious fried Feta with crispy top and bottom covered in honey was circa €54 which was great value, so a nice tip was left! My observations were that the Kleftiko was well seasoned which suits my palete as I like to taste salt in my food. My wife’s Lamb Chops was over cooked for her liking having asked for it to be on the rare side. Our table was facing the road and I sat whereby my back was facing the main part of the outside seating which was less than ideal but hey, I have learned on what to ask for when booking a table in future! We had booked for Friday at 7:30 in anticipation of the live music being played as thought it started at 8pm and when asking, was advised it would start at approx 8:30 but, although we left at 9pm, the music had not started yet. I would also add that the Restaurant only serves Meze from 8pm on a Friday! Overall, experience was very positive and shall be returning again 👊🏽 BTW, be sure to have an appetite as portions are not small 🫃

We stopped by for dinner with the family and were very pleasantly surprised. The Kleftiko left a great impression – the flavor was amazing, and the meat was tender and juicy. The fresh grilled calamari was cooked just right, not overdone, and served with a perfectly matched sauce. What surprised us the most was the juicy kids' cheeseburger – even our children complimented it and finished it all! The service was very friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy. We will definitely be coming back. P.s. Thanks for the butter:)

Brilliant cheeky little boozer. Cheesy DJ but played a variety of good music through the years and genres. Also hosts karaoke as well. Gets really busy and you may struggle to get a table at times. We went for a quick drink and ended up staying about 4-5 hours, drinking cocktails and shots. Lots of options to choose from and the prices are really good. Caution - not all their cocktails are tiny - try the mile high cocktail it’s huge and could definitely be shared. The staff are great and you’re never waiting long, if at all, to be served.

We had a quick drink and food stop here whilst we're waiting for our lift, and it was very nice, the service was very quick although it was nearly empty so expected that, the food was very well presented but your chicken parmo is not a parmo, it needs bechemel sauce to be called a parmo , it was just a schnitzel with cheese , was nice though as was the ribs
