Natura Restaurant

Good quality food in a nice garden under the trees.Right on the beach.Friendly and polite stuff.The prices might be slightly over the average, but the quality of the food is by far better than the other restaurants in Gialova, therefore it’s definitively worth it.

Called in for a coffee and hot chocolate before we departed for the airport. Friendly service. Coffee was a little bitter for my taste (black Americano) but the hot chocolate went down a treat! Cost €4.50.

We went there several times, since they moved from their old place with garden to the main square of Pylos. Since the move the quality went down every time we had choses this place.

Taverna To Spitiko

Reviewed By EddieSlog - Copenhagen, Denmark

The food was so-so. I chose a vegetarian dish, but my girlfriend had some souvlaki. Small portions. Do not expect salad on the side or water, as you would get from many other greek taverns. The food was pretty dry. The service was average

Koxili Fish Tavern

Reviewed By Blanka N - Prague, Czech Republic

We spent 3 evenings of our 4 days stay in this restaurant and everything was just delicious. Every evening we selected a variety of starters and continued with fish. I personally ordered one evening the lamp chops which were very tasty.
definitely a restaurant to be recommended.

We created a place where someone can combine your delicious meal at the picturesque restaurant of the area, with a tasteful sweet combination of a crepe or waffle by choosing between the common or inspired sweet variety of Gilmass Crepe.If you are going to stay out at the local bars you can close your night by tasting one of the many sandwiches.

Reviewed By patriciadenise - Nunspeet, The Netherlands

This fastfood restaurant is not in Pylos, but In Gialova, a seaside town about 7 kilometres from Pylos. They have great (savoury and sweet) crepes and waffles!! I've been here lots of times and always enjoyed it! They have some tables outside where you can eat, or you can take the food away. Owner is very friendly! This is a nice and cheap option for a fastfood dinner, and much healthier than other fastfood, if you order lots of vegetables in your crepe

Magevmata

Reviewed By Leonidas-tg

We spend 4 days in Gialova and have been three times in that place already. Souvlaki pork is very clean and tasty, Giros is absolutely a MUST, kebab is also great. Fried potatoes are average and chicken is good ... but chicken! Service is great although the place is always packed. Beers and drinks always come on your table frozen. Try also the Cypriot pitta with your souvlaki
