We were staying at the Vrahos Hotel, which we loved. We had experienced their excellent buffet breakfasts and their outdoor dining terrace has the best view of Karovostasis harbor. The evening light over the village is especially picturesque.Night one: an outstanding octopus appetizer paired with a recommended Greek rose, followed by two fresh fish entrees, equally outstanding. All three dishes were a beautiful mix of Greek traditional and contemporary cuisine. Service was efficient and personable throughout, with a fantastic ambiance coupled with the beautiful view(lighting can be such an important aspect of the dining experience, and Vrahos has perfected the lighting, throughout the hotel, so incredibly well).The meal and dining experience were so enjoyable and memorable, we had to come back the next night.Night 2 - we had to have the octopus appetizer again, and we had the same tasty Greek rose; the entrees this time were two different fish, yet equal to the quality of the night before. A bit of a deja-vu from the night before, but experiencing perfection two nights in a row is a wonderful habit.After each of our vacations, my wife and I as part of our travel experience, we separately compose a list of our top 10 special memories of the trip, which we then compare over a glass of wine - not surprisingly we each had listed our dining experience at Vrahos as one of top 10 memories of Greece 2018.

On my wife's birthday we celebrated with our local friends. Pizza was excellent and the handmade pasta is prepared just before your eyes, which makes it (aside from its excellent taste) an extra treat. The staff was very attentive and the wine excellent.
