Drakos Taverna
Ταβέρνα Δράκος
Long-established seafood taverna by the water at the quieter west end of Milopotas Beach. Choose your fresh fish and try the lemon-garlic octopus and shrimp saganaki.
Situated at the quieter western end of Milopotas Beach, with tables right by the sea, and reportedly in business since 1963. Fresh fish can be chosen on the spot and is priced by weight, then filleted at the table after grilling. Recommended dishes include lemon-garlic octopus, shrimp saganaki, octopus stuffed with sheep's cheese and seafood linguine. It is popular and often full at dinner, so reserve ahead. Prices are clearly above the island average, with fresh fish at around 85–90 euros per kilo, and opinions on consistency vary. The bus stop is right at the door.
