This family-run taverna is a long-time favorite on the tiny Mononaftis beach, 2 coves over from the main Agia Pelagia beach. Owned and fastidiously operated by 2 brothers-Vasilis and Giorgos and now with the help of Vasilis' two teenage sons. You will find all the traditional Greek tavern dishes, but with plenty of fresh fish daily and great homegrown vegetables from their large garden out back. You can be completely happy with a simply delicious, fresh Greek salad and stuffed zucchini flowers or opt for a pasta with mixed seafood or lobster or grilled shrimp. You can't beat the location on the beach gazing at the peaceful bay and occasional passing boat.
