Limassol

Bao Pau is a small Asian street-food stop in Limassol that makes sense when I want bao buns, sushi/rolls and something quick but a bit different. It is casual, compact and focused on flavour rather than ceremony.

The restaurant It feels like a modern takeaway-friendly spot, with a simple setup and a menu that is easy to order from. I like it as a quick lunch or light dinner choice, especially when I do not want a heavy meal.

The menu It is built around bao buns, Asian-style fillings, dumplings, sides and sauces. I would order a couple of different baos and one side so the meal has variety. The appeal is in the soft bun, the filling and the contrast from the sauce.

Baloo is an easygoing Limassol spot that I would use for a casual meal rather than a special-occasion dinner. It has a relaxed mood and the kind of menu that works when you want familiar food, drinks and a comfortable place to sit.

The restaurant It feels friendly and informal, with a modern casual setup and enough atmosphere to make it more than just a quick bite. I like it most when the plan is simple: meet, eat, talk and not overthink the evening.

The menu It covers familiar casual dishes, snacks, salads, burgers, mains and drinks. I would order something shareable first and then keep the main straightforward, because places like this work best when the food is relaxed and generous.

Saffron Indian Restaurant is one of the restaurants reviewed on Foodie.cy.

The restaurant Saffron Indian Restaurant in Limassol is a compact Indian spot with a stronger reputation for takeaway and delivery than for a big dining-room experience. Reviews are split, but the positive ones praise authentic flavors, friendly service and good vegetarian or vegan options.

This is a fish restaurant for a gorgeous family diner.

The restaurant is located on a busy Griva Digeni street, nothing fancy inside or outside. They offer huge and cheap combo platters with prawns or fish. Make sure to come hungry and with your family or friends, as most of the platters are there to be shared. The service is OK.

The menu contains platters with prawns of different sizes and styles, as well as some other fish specialties like cod, mussels or calamari. They are usually grilled and served with a variety of sauces. They smell great and taste great, just like in other Jimmy's places all around the globe.

This is a good pizza restaurant with a nice interior and two locations: in Limassol and in Paphos.

The restaurant is located on a busy Spirou Kiprianou street. The interior is quite nice, and it's very often fully booked. Make sure you book in advance.

The menu contains all classical Italian dishes, not only pizza. It's very vast, so you could come several times to try something different each time. They have several types of pizzas, pasta, antipasti, dolce and everything is very moderately priced.

This is a small, vegetarian-friendly Limassol stop that reads more like a simple live kitchen than a polished restaurant. The public review trail is thin, but the better signals point to a modest place for warm, freshly made comfort food.

The restaurant feels practical and low-key, with the food doing more of the work than the room. I would go in expecting kindness and simplicity rather than a long, formal dining experience.

The menu seems built around Indian-style vegetarian dishes, rice, curries and casual plates. It is the sort of food that makes most sense when you want something wholesome, spiced and inexpensive.
