"Everything you could wish for is here. Every week they make BBQ with fresh fish you won't find anywhere in Stalis! You really immerse yourself in the Greek cuisine and atmosphere, leaving you with a long lasting flavor and elated spirit. Your enthusiasm sets a new standard!"

"Best Place in Stalis. Great Cocktails, they use only good Rum, Havana 7, Don Papa. The Service at the Beach and on the Restaurant is perfect. French Fries, Salat, Ravioli, Shrimps — all food was really great."
