Taverna Vakhos
Ταβέρνα Βάκχος
A traditional taverna run by the Theodorakis family, with a terrace overlooking the valley. Red-wine braised rooster and sesame-crusted baked feta are the most recommended dishes.
Located at 31 Apollonos Street and run by the Theodorakis family, Taverna Vakhos serves traditional Greek food with a homestyle touch. Clay-pot braises and charcoal-grilled meats are its strengths, and in winter it may serve wild boar and other game. Some ingredients and the olive oil come from the family's own land, and there are plenty of vegetarian and gluten-free options. The terrace has wide views, so book ahead for window or terrace seats. The taverna closes for several hours in the afternoon and is also popular with local guides.
