Sandal Restaurant
A popular meyhane in the old harbor town, known for seafood meze, octopus, and olive oil vegetables; book ahead in peak season.
Located in the pedestrian zone of Alsancak Street in the town center, with tables set out along the street. Signature dishes include seafood börek, octopus salad, grilled small mackerel, island wild greens salad, mastic artichokes, and stuffed zucchini flowers, which pair well with a dry white wine made from the island's Vasilaki grape. On the island, prices are on the higher side. In 2025, some diners complained that prices were not disclosed before ordering and the bill was high, so ask the price of fish sold by weight before ordering. Book at least a week ahead in peak season. It is a few minutes' walk from the pier.
