Karatello Tavern

This is one of the safer Limassol choices for a proper Cypriot tavern meal. Reviews are strong on the atmosphere, the friendly service and the pleasure of ordering enough dishes for the whole table.

The restaurant feels lively, warm and polished without losing the tavern character. It is especially useful when visitors want Cyprus on the plate.

The menu is built around meze, grilled meats, dips, salads, koupepia, sausages and sharing plates. The best meal here is the one that slowly fills the table.

Forsos Tavern

This is a typical meze tavern with a fireplace and a friendly service.

The restaurant is located up on the hill above Limassol. It's not as expensive as some Limassol restaurants and not so far from the town as some village ones. So there's always plenty of locals ready to enjoy dry souvlas, sour olives and bitter asparagus.

The menu is non-existent. You can only get a meze there.

Electus Bar

This is a friendly Germasogeia bar with a stronger review profile than its modest setup might suggest. Guests often praise the hospitality, drinks and relaxed dine-in mood.

The restaurant feels neighbourhood-like and informal. It is more bar-first than restaurant-first, which is part of the appeal.

The menu seems to support the drinks rather than compete with them: simple food, beer, spritzes, cocktails and easy plates for a low-key night.

Dionysus Mansion

This is a beautiful European-with-a-twist restaurant located in a courtyard around some old building.

The restaurant is modern but cozy. It's usually full of locals and tourists, because it's a hip one. The service is OK, granted they have so many people to cope with. The interior is really fantastic for a date with a loved one, with the dimmed lights and tables far away from each other.

The menu is a fusion of the European and Greek cuisine. It's quite broad and is like a breath of fresh air after all those souvlas etc. They even have their own bread

Dasoudi Beach tavern

This is a place where the beach setting is clearly stronger than the food reputation. Public reviews are mixed, with plenty of love for the Dasoudi location and sea-adjacent mood, but less consistent feedback on the restaurant itself.

Avli Tou Vasilea

This has the ingredients of a lovely Limassol tavern: an old house on Ayiou Andreou, a characterful courtyard and a menu built around Greek and Cypriot sharing food. Reviews are strong, especially for meze and atmosphere.

The restaurant feels charming, traditional and warm without becoming too staged. The courtyard is a big part of the appeal.

The menu covers meze, grilled meat, fish options, salads, dips and classic tavern dishes. It is made for a table that wants to share.

Militzis Traditional Tavern

This traditional taverna can serve as a starting point to the exploration of the Greek cuisine in Larnaca.

The restaurant is located on the sea road near the beautiful Larnaca castle and St. Lazarus Church. Its friendly veranda overlooks the sea and it's also quite pleasant inside the historical building during the heat waves.

The menu is mostly based on the dishes cooked in the traditional kleftiko ovens which can be spotted outside. You will find everything you would want to taste here, from mousaka to kleftiko of different kind, to whole roasted lamb and pork. The service is very professional and fast, however keep in mind it's a very popular place, so it's better to avoid rush hours on the Friday or Saturday evenings.

Agios Georgios Alamanou Fish Tavern

This is THE place to try the fish meze in Cyprus, although you can get some great meat there, too.

The restaurant is located on the beautiful White stones beach. It's better to visit it on the weekend and allocate at least 3-5 hours to enjoy it. You would prefer to start from relaxing on the beach and then enjoy a full course with your friends.

The menu is pretty standard for a Cyprus fish taverna. It boasts several types of fish and meat meze, as well as some other standard Cyprus dishes. If you don't feel confident of yourself or don't have enough friends to try the meze, you are still good to go.

Tavernaki Tou Meli

This is a typical Cyprus taverna with dry meat and fried fish. No moussaka. Not worth a visit unless you live there.

The restaurant keeps the focus on the food and the visit described in the original review.

The menu is the best guide to what makes this place worth ordering from.

Kanata Tavern

This might look like another traditional Cyprus taverna, but it's more than this.

The restaurant is located on the cozy one-way street of the Pyrgos village. Keep in mind that there's no parking nearby, so be prepared to park down the street and enjoy a nice little walk around the village.

The menu is full of traditional Cyprus dishes. You can find mouthwatering moussaka, huge crispy pork chop or generous lamb chops.
