"Best tsatsiky yet, family owned sometimes full sometimes empty always welcoming and delicious! Oh! The pita is homemade and you can feel the difference if you've tried it in other places!"

"A beautiful family run Taverna on the outskirts of the village of Sissi. For drinks, starters and main meals for two of us came to under €30. The food was real home cooked Greek! Would definitely recommend a visit if you’re passing by!"
