"Lovely food and service. First time having Kleftiko and it was delicious. Generous portions too. Definitely recommend if you are in the area."

"Travelled to the area for the weekend and sought a Greek restaurant and found Stalida Taverna near to where we were staying. Booked a late sitting in advance as not too sure if our plane arrival time would be delayed. The staff were very accommodating, and the food was excellent, freshly cooked and delivered hot. A lovely meal thoroughly enjoyed by all four of us, highly recommend."
