Modern yet comfy restaurant on the harbour front. Despite being busy service was very quick and the layout and the lighting/ mood made you feel like you had your own space. They bought over free water with a cute ice bucket with our menus. The menu is VER
My first visit coincided with a thunderstorm and once it had bated there was initially some confusion of who still needed serving. However, after a while I did get someone's attention and manage to order a traditional salad and a chocolate milkshake - the latter was amazing. You also get free water / ice with every purchase. On the return visit, it was a much warmer day so I started with a frappe (the free water and ice) and also received 2 x bite-sized custard pastries. About an hour or so later, I ordered the chicken curry wrap and you guessed it a chocolate milkshake. For the price I was totally impressed. While i'm still undecided of whether to return to stay on Syros in the future, I would seriously come back to this place again!Τhank you very much! We hope to see you again :)

Dr Wine is located at the port of Syros island. This wine & kitchen bar includes a private selection of Greek and world wide wines added by a mediterranean influenced menu.
The most exquisite wine restaurant in the city. I had the most joyful time while dining there. The wine collection is so astonishing and carefully selected. All the ingredients were fresh. The salad was very balanced like all the dishes I tasted of course. Would definitely recommend without a doubt.

This restaurant had been recommended by our accommodation, and having been rather disappointed by restaurants in Hermopoulis, we were looking forward to our meal. The menu seemed interesting, with variations on the traditional Greek taverna theme. However, apart from a green salad with San Michali cheese, they were all disappointing. The best was a lamb dish, but even that was bulked up lots of pitta.

This restaurant is beautifully decorated and welcoming. Although we did nearly leave after waiting a very long time for anyone to acknowledge we were there and offer a drink. Weâre glad we didnât as the food was excellent and you can tell the ingredients are sourced seasonally and the dishes made with love. Highly recommend the creamy chicken main dish with artichoke and mushroom, the flavours were phenomenal. The fava was an interesting flavour but not something Iâd choose again. And you canât do wrong with the pastry encrusted feta with honey. Lovely spot in the lanes of Syros.

That is exactly this space! An italian food patadise!! The pizzas, the pastas are extraordinary!! It is a place that you should visit!! Small tip is to try calling first for a reservation plus to drink a coctail in the bar of the restaurant!!

We came here a couple of time when in Galissas as it was so good. A very nice clean restaurant right on the beach offering good food and great service all at a reasonable price. We had the local wine which is quite reasonable especially for its price and a couple of starters which came with some lovely dips. You can see there are quite a few regular customers which is always good. Highly recommend the place.

We've been fans of Elliniko Kafeneio since it first opened, for the quality of its food, its championing of local products, original (and often healthy) takes on Syros classics, its professional service, reasonable prices for the quality of what's on offer, and location on Ermoupolis' 100-year-old main square. It was therefore the logical choice for us to host a significant birthday this week. Anna Maria and her team surpassed our expectations - the food was delicious, the service courteous and professional, and the night magical. Our family and friends are still raving about it - highly recommended, for breakfast, coffee, dinner and everything in between!

After 10 days Island hopping and a few hearty Greek meals we were ready for something a bit different and the Avant Garden fitted the bill perfectly. Lovely appetisers, excellent mains and deserts and a great wine list all at a reasonable place. In addition the walled garden setting is absolutely superb. We will be revisiting Syros and will be returning to this wonderful restaurant again.

De la Gracia is a great restaurant! Very pleasant atmosphere with super friendly staff and absolutely delicious food! The best choice for a summerry night. We had dinner and enjoyed fresh seafood and a very tasty spinach salad. The lemon dessert was also awesome. Congratulations!! The best restsurant in Syros for me! I will definately go back!

The freshest seafood just feet from the sea! Enjoy your cool drink at the bar or enjoy a meal on our sweet little dock ;) Quick service and unique dishes combined with scenery that you will not find anywhere else in the island! See you soon? ;)
We made the mistake to dare to have lunch here and were mislead by the little front porch bordering to the sea directly by the beach of Achladi. We even found the logo with the bitten pear and the fish quite funny... We only found out afterwards what a terrible mistake we made. The female owner, she introduced herself to us as 'Maria', didn't want to give us one of the tables on the porch, for they were supposed to be reserved for other guests, that never appeared during the tantalizing time of our stay there. We got the menu that was not exactly clean, but felt a bit sticky due to some unidentified stuff. The prices could have let a normal owner of a restaurant on the neighboring island of Mykonos blush, we were told that we should better get an appetizer and a main course each of us in order to be satisfied. We dared to order one Greek salad to share as an appetizer and two main courses, which was answered with a sneer of the waiter. We were left to wait for the drinks, the red wine was way too warm and we were told that Greeks drink their red wine like this. We both had nagging doubts that Greeks like to drink warm wine out of not exactly clean glasses. We had to wait considerably long to get a soda pop in order to be able to swallow the hard bread that was 'on the house' (as if we couldn't afford to pay it). The Greek salad, we were instructed to order it in future as a 'Greek farmer salad' (horiatiki), was surely made by an onion farmer, for it mainly consisted of clumsily chunked onions with some shreds of tomatoes and cucumber. Salt and pepper in cellars were slammed on the table and accompanied by the instruction that 'Greeks know how to prepare their own salad according to their taste'. The meat main course and the fish main course were too long in a pan/on a grill to be considered even as well done. Again we dared to utter our opinion on that detail and were met with 'In Greece we eat it like this'. No wonder that we declined a dessert on the house and were told that the POS (electronic pay system) had a problem that day and that we should pay cash, hence one of us swiftly drove to Ermoupolis to get some money from the first banking machine in order to pay the bill. All in all: anyone who wants to burn his/her money for bad food, bad service, mediocre warm red wine in almost clean glasses on Syros should better throw his money away and spend the rest of the day without food than to eat here. It was the worst restaurant we ever had in Greece. A true shame!LeonKennick, we are so sorry that you had an unpleasant experience. We understand that sometimes things can and will go wrong and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience. We wish to do you right next time if you are ever nearby come by and let us show you how welcome you are in our little restaurant :)
