Great place, good vibes and music. Can get busy and you can wait awhile before being served but the bartenders do the best they can. The frozen strawberry daiquiris are the best we have ever had. Make sure to get served by to bald man, his skills are amazing! The restraunt next door is also really delicious

I visited the Bar and had a great time! I only had a drink, but the atmosphere was fantastic. Listening to the karaoke singers was super fun, a mix of funny performances and surprisingly good voices made the night very entertaining. I also enjoyed smoking shisha, which was smooth and of good quality. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the relaxed and fun vibe. A great spot to hang out with friends, laugh, and enjoy music. I’d definitely come back!

First of all super friendly stuff and the friendliest of all the owner!!! We had a great fish soup for stared and then we order a fish dish but the owner suggested a freshly caught, from sea, fish (Orfos) that would be better choice! We waited and while waiting he brought a lot of pitta bread spread either virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice and oregano!!! The fish arrived with multiple side dishes ( baked potato, salad, rice) and it was amazing. Came deboned, perfectly cooked with great seasoning!!! We had an amazing time, for sure we will go again! And the suggestion of the owner to select the other kind of fresh fish was perfect. My wife commented “it’s been a long time since we have been to a restaurant and leave with so good, full feelings, enjoyment and pleasure”!!! Unfortunately, we were so hungry we forgot the photos ;) p.s there is also a fireplace for cold nights :)

The food was decent, not sure why ratings are so low. Staff were friendly and we got pita bread on the house. French fries were yummy
