First thing : make a reservation before you go and leave the owner to schedule your menu according to his daily supplies! Fresh fish and salads, delicious starters and a unique carpaccio of "mayiatiko fish"! Enjoy your dinner with a glass of wine at the main port of Kastelorizo with the yachts just in front of you! A little bit expensive, small portions but very tasty!

Touristy setting, and mediocre food (for a Greek customer). Reheated octopus, "revisited" relatively tasteless Greek (χωριατικη) salad, and a claimed fresh calamar (which was obviously defrosted). Good enough for a tourist, but definitely not anything special for a Greek used to great local food.

We visited this place twice and both times were lovely! Situated steps away from the sea, this is a family-run business that serves good, clean, delicious food in large portions and at very good prices. I was really suprised to read that some people were unhappy with it because it really is a lovely place to go and enjoy your meal. Everyone was helpful and friendly, the owner was happy to help us decide what to eat, everything tasted delicious and so did the house wine. Our meal was finished with sweets and fruit offered by the owners. Definitely one of the best dining solutions at beautiful Kastellorizo!

Beautiful restuarant with very attentive staff, went as a group of 8 and service was fantastic . The Greek mezze is a treat tzatzici pitta great cheese balls meatballs Greek beans Greek salad then your meat either is a pork chop or chicken breast served with rice ! And to top it all either a free ice cream for afters or a local beer / wine all for 12 euro

We travelled to Kastellorizo a couple of years ago and had great memories of this restaurant. We visited again this year and weren’t disappointed. Cominos? (Kevin) is a fantastic host who really looks after his guests. The authentic Greek food was fantastic - fresh, delicious and good value. Highly recommended!

Huge portions here! Had dinner with a large group of friends the night before a wedding. Lots of wine flowing and a lovely atmosphere. Food was OK, not amazing, but big portions helped. Very well fed.

If you are after simple, pure, home-made Greek food, then this is your place. This tavern does not serve the seafood one finds in the port, but rather basic, but very delicious, traditional Greek recipes reminiscent of old times. The ambience on the village square could easily double for a movie set, and the staff is genuinely friendly. While in Kastellorizo definitely give it a try. I would recommend dinner vs. lunch so as to enjoy the square without too much heat.

A beautiful spot, amazing genuine and honest service and delicious food. We had shrimps, calamari and large prawns to start followed by grouper (caught in the boat in the picture by the owner's father) to share between 3 of us with a Greek salad.

This is possibly the closest place to the arrival and departure point for Ferries so I went there while I waited for the Meis Express. Yianni was so welcoming that I immediately decided a light meal would be in order. Yianni explained many of the special dishes but I ordered pork chop which I thought would be light and simple. While waiting Yianni bought some minced spiced cheese his wife had made - delicious! The pork chop was enormous and very nicely cooked. Washed down with cold Retsina this was the perfect farewell to the very lovely Kastellorizo but I shall certainly be back, and when that happens, Aiolis is definitely on the menu!

I visited the Radio Cafe in Kastellorizo, whilst on a recent day trip from Rhodes. Excellent service and reasonably priced for a bottle of Mythos, and lovely views of the harbour. Well worth a visit.
