Limassol

This is a casual Middle Eastern food stop where the appeal is smoke, bread, dips and grilled meat rather than polish. Public ratings are more mixed than the strongest restaurants here, but the positive comments point to flavour, portions and value.

The restaurant sounds simple and practical. It is better for a relaxed lunch, a quick dinner or takeaway than for a slow formal night out.

The menu leans into kebabs, kofta, hummus, shawarma-style plates, grilled chicken and fresh bread. When those basics are on form, the place makes sense.

This is the Greek taverna on the sea-road of Limassol owned by real Greek (not Cypriot) family.

The restaurant might look like your average touristic area taverna, but believe me, it's worth the visit. The owner and the other staff are very friendly. The service speeds are on a slower side so don't go there if you're in a rush. The place is clean and tasty so you wouldn't want to leave soon anyway. In the winter they turn the wooden log fireplace on.

The menu contains all Greek clichees - moussaka, kleftiko etc., as well as a great choice of the grilled dishes - both meat and fish. The menu is well-balanced and you might find yourself coming here for a few times to try everything out.
