It's practicaly at the end of the beach toward the harbour - no it doesnt particularly specialise in fish, none of the Taverna's do , whixh is a little disappointing but not surprising given the level of tourism and over-fishing.
The blonde started with Feta in the oven and I had stuffed aubergine - perfect! and definately home cooked, we then had Salmon for her and rabbit and shallot for me and pork chops for Jnr Z,again very homely, pity they served chips tho', my sauce was a little salty for my taste and tended to drown out the taste of rabbit, which was lovely and tender.
Jnr Z finished with a lemon pie which he described as being very lemoney - nice place and they deserve more custom than they had last night, they seem intent on clinging to ethnicity and good for them!!

Tonite - Zorba's which I have a feeling will be touristy greek

Manthos is opposite the Nafsika Hotel and does not specialise in fish.
Waves on the beach does tend to specialise more in fish than the rest!!

Zimmer you will love Zorbas - touristy Greek or not. The food is lovely and the dancing is very good as well.

The Blonde was indeed well impressed , she started with courgette balls I had Dolmades, we then both had Kaiserii? the lamb was imo a wee bit salty [ again ] and clearly slow cooked - very nice , but it may well have been kid, thats ok though, yes very nice place, Jnr had a garlicky chicken and followed by the chockliets fudge cake Ive seen...some fellow tried eating a table that was on fire, very weird

Zorba's was our favourite during our 2 week stay in June. Good quality food, reasonable prices for both the food and drink, very friendly and fun loving staff and the dancing interludes were very entertaining.

We had Plank Steaks in Mama Mia's, last week. (Mama Mia's is actually Zorba's - but you can't really see the dancing).
They only cook Pizza there in front of you in the big clay oven.
Everything else is made in Zorba's kitchen, delivered by staff in Zorba's T-Shirts from a Zorba's menu!!
So think of it as Zorba's annex!! Service was a touch slow at first then it was great!! They also do scoop Ice-creams in there!!
The Plank steak's (cooked/served on wood with Mash and Veg), were very good and value for €8.
A good night in all!!

Sorry for noticing all this but found a brilliant spellcheck. Great if like me you have no qualifications bar an NVQ in manufacturing!
Hope this doesn't upset anybody.
