Old Zygi Fish Tavern is one of the restaurants reviewed on Foodie.cy.
The restaurant Old Zygi Fish Tavern is a seaside fish tavern in Zygi, with the kind of view and village-marina setting that makes seafood feel like the obvious order. Reviews praise the location, the fresh produce and the easy coastal atmosphere, though service and pacing can vary.
The menu Seafood is the focus: fish meze, grilled octopus, sea bream, prawns, cuttlefish, seafood pasta, salads and local wine. The best comments mention fresh fish, good prices for seafood and attentive servers. The weaker ones mention overcooked octopus or calamari, frozen potatoes and hot dishes arriving too close together.
Personally I would ask for a waterside table, order fish or prawns rather than too many fried items and leave enough time for a slow lunch. Old Zygi sounds best when you come for the sea view and a simple seafood meal.
The portions Fish meze and seafood platters are large, so go with an appetite.
The score: taste 8/10, value 7/10, coziness 8/10
