An oasis, amongst the normal tourist fare of restaurants. This is an excellent restaurant, serving interesting and well cooked food in traditional setting. It’s not large and whilst it was busy we did just turn up and get a table, but this might not always be the case. Compared to normal tourist restaurants it’s not cheap, but for the quality... More

Having read about the Rustico, we thought we'd give it a try. We should have listened to other guests from our resort who warned us about the food and service. However, having walked out of a restaurant nearby, thought we'd give it a go. At first, all seemed well, nice setting although below ground level with a reasonable sized dining... More

My partner and I had a superb meal here during our week on the island. We didn't book but were able to choose a good table when we arrived. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. The only odd things were that a steak (perfectly cooked and very succulent) came topped with lime sorbet which didn't quite work and my... More

Following a very late night the previous evening, we wanted somewhere quiet and relaxing to eat, and this restaurant was recommended to us by the staff where we were staying. It was a short walk from the bungalow, and set in a quiet street. The receptionist rang to check there was availability, and we were lucky. The restaurant is very... More

Do not miss this! A little out of the way but don't let that put you off. It's a real treat, the food is of the highest standard and superbly presented. The service is second to none. Enjoy!

One of the best places I've eaten at in a while. All the food was simply delicious, freshly prepared and served with beautiful presentation (the Goats cheese salad was so, so tasty and the cheese was served in a scallop shell). Another reason why we fell in love with this place was the great wine list, including our favourite "Stratvs"... More

I am very lucky to live here but good restaurants are rare. This wasn't my first visit and is definitely not my last one. A reservation is most important as the place is small and cosy. The waiter, his name is Ron, speaks quite a few languages and is the most perfect waiter you could ask for. His ability in... More

This restaurant is a little out of the way, but well worth finding! It is highly advisable to book in advance, because it is probably full every night. We arrived without a booking and were lucky, but the first couple to be turned away arrived before 7pm! All the staff there were very friendly and helpful but not over attentive,... More

We'd read the reviews so drove to this gem to see if we could get a table as walk ins. This was on a "quiet" Sunday night so arriving before 7pm got us a table and warm welcome. The place was understandably packed by the time we left. Our advice is book a table as this is a meal you... More
