Find out what European restaurants to try in Sifnos. Sifnos (Greek: Σίφνος; the spelling Siphnos is obsolete in English but still by convention often used to refer to the island in ancient times) is an island municipality in the Cyclades island group in Greece. The main town, near the center, known as Apollonia (pop. 869), is home of the island's folklore museum and library. The town's name is thought to come from an ancient temple of Apollo on the site of the church of Panayia Yeraniofora. The second-largest town is Artemonas (800), thought to be named after an ancient temple of Apollo's sister-goddess Artemis, located at the site of the church of Panayia Kokhi. The village of Kastro (118), was the capital of the island during ancient times until 1836. It is built on top of a high cliff on the island's east shore and today has extensive medieval remains and is the location of the island's archeological museum. The port settlement, on the west coast of the island is known as Kamares (245).

We were here on a cooler evening so had to fit inside their upstairs seating area. They have a large outdoor area for warm evenings and that would be very nice as it is a courtyard type of setting. The food has both traditional and fusion choices and everything is visually stunning and backed up with great flavours. Service was attentive and prices were reasonable. Definitely try it out,

We loved the food it was tasty. the service was excellent.However the portions were a bit too small. Especially if you order the octopus, you pay 12 euros for 5 bites. Or the greek salad with mizithra... the mizithra was 1 tablespoon. Come on!There should be a better balance between profit maximisation and customer satisfaction.Apart from that, I strongly recommend it.Thank you very much for the review. We are very happy that you find our food amazing. You should also try some of our main courses that are bigger in portions. Please note that the 12 euro are for a top quality tentacle of octopus, slowly cooked and grilled, served with local fava pure. Thank you again and we really hope to see you again!

Second year and is even better! Incredibly balanced dishes that we ate and have overcome our expectations. Carpaccio was like a work of art with its materials complementing each other. The tuna is a very successful different approach dish, the smoked bass an ointment in simplicity and a dish that you will not find anywhere else, the cod had everything that must have a dish that is perfect, the combination of taste was so elegant that every bite it was a taste experience and finally the octopus, although I am the philosophy that some traditional things are not overcome, this dish drove me away and traveled to me in time making me think of all the good octopus dishes I've eaten these years, it contained all these dishes on a bite, as we explained to the owner (Zannis) was quite complicated preparation which worth you describe. Prices on main dishes is very reasonable for this quality of food. The advantages of the restaurant are the parking space and the friendly owner who is willing to explain every dish he offers. I wish she stayed so good and had the opportunity to visit it again soon.

A great restaurant with contemporary mediterranean cuisine. Probably the best service on the island. My favourite dish was the portobello mushroom topped with a local cheese (can't remember the name), paired with an amazing artisanal greek beer. If you are in Sifnos this place for dinner is a must!

My husband and I arrived in Sifnos today and after the boat ride and checking into our accommodations. Our timing was off since it was about 3:30 and most places were closed. We were hot, tired and hungry and came upon this place and how lucky were we. I had the grill chicken with vegetables and my husband had the meatballs with potatoes. We both loved our dishes and the presentation was so lovely. Our plates were clean when we finished since we enjoyed our meals so much. The waiter then brought us out a delicious chocolate mouse dessert on the house that was delicious. What a nice thing to do. All around an excellent meal, dessert and service and we will be back for sure.

I have three words for you: fresh, handmade pasta! Passione Italiana is a small Italian cuisine restaurant at the quaint port of Kamares in Sifnos. Pretty, with elegantly simple decoration providing a nice view, it serves traditional Italian cuisine with a modern touch. But most importantly, everything is fresh and handmade, pizza, pasta and their deserts!We really wanted to try everything from the menu as all looked delicious. The girls had pasta, my wife the amatriciana with guanciale (cured pork) and pecorino cheese and my daughter porzini filled pasta with truffle cream sauce and I had the white pizza with mortadella, mozzarella and pistachio pesto! Iâm not an amatriciana fan but that was absolutely delicious and the handmade porzini was amazing, we could actually taste the fresh pasta! The truffle sauce was very inspiring and full of flavor! The pizza was great too, the crust was thin with a perfect texture between soft and firm, fully covered in mozzarella and mortadella as they certainly donât skimp on materials and the pistachio pesto exquisite! That was something Iâve never tried before and I totally enjoyed! For dessert we had tiramisu and chocolate mousse with ice cream. The tiramisu was so rich and creamy with good balance of sweetness and coffee beautifully presented and served in a jar and the chocolate mousse was decadent! Even if youâre not into chocolate you will love it!Iâve been to Italy and Iâm telling you, that place was like being somewhere in Tuscany, authentic, traditional, modern and retro at the same time. The Chef was really nice coming out of the galley and engaging with the guests. Passione Italiana was unquestionably one of our top three eateries in Sifnos. Mark my words and pay a visit if you ever be in that charming small island of Cyclades!

I decided to go to Maiolica after reading about it here. It's a nice place with a really good service. I had lentil salad (recommended on Trip Advisor) which was tasty and enough for my whole meal. Nicely served on the colorful plate. After having the salad I decided to indulge myself with a little treat. I wanted to try something local so I chose pistachio cake with sheep yoghurt ice cream and pistachio milk. Sounded great and it also looked good on a plate, very colorful and neat. However, after tasting it, I was a bit disappointed as I got the impression that the cake was like a warm defrosted muffin with ice cream and pistachio milk. I missed the velvety taste of a cake and its fluffiness. Not worth its price (8 euro). To compensate the disappointment I really enjoyed the view from the restaurant's terrace.
