Food was very nice (organic and well-cooked). Location, away from the harbour, attractive and quiet but not so picturesque as some. We felt a bit hassled by Mike ( we presume it was him), who tried so hard to capture us every evening that we went the long way around to avoid him: had he left us alone, we would... More

Having read the other reviews I cannot understand why people didn't love this place. We went 2 nights of our week there and both nights lots of tables were occupied, the staff were pleasant and polite, the service was good and the meals and wine were excellent and reasonably priced. More

When you decide to have dinner with Mike, you are sure of: cockroaches crawling on the terrace; hell lot of stray cats on the terrace; terrible and fatty foods. Succes! More

Just been checking reviews on Sissi and felt we must add our comments to this particular restaurant. Poor to say the very least. During our two weeks in Sissi we tried as many restaurants as we could manage and Mike's Place was by far the worst - the maddening thing was we chose to go there and were not "... More

Firstly, apologies for the late posting of this review. I have to agree with Tynecastle that Mike has lost the plot. We thought his quality had gone right off and his wine (which used to be top class) was watery rubbish. We've eaten here many times before but never again. The lack of raki was the last straw! Would not... More

We went twice, the first time having been lured in from the road outside. Go for the special of the day: big hearty dishes of meat and vegetables from the owner's land, washed down with the house wine (also the owner's own). More

Really thought hard about writing this review - but I thought I had to be honest and I am being 100% here, when I say that this was probably one of the worst meals I've had, anywhere. Spent 4 days being shouted at by Mike from across the road as we walked through to other dinner places. Finally we said... More

We went to Mike's based on previous reviews, and left early based on the experience. Meatball starter was blackened carbon which otherwise tasted like a long overdue oil change. Both my wife,& son had similar quality food, and the mains were no better. Once Mike had dragged us in, we were served by a young man with extremely questionable hygiene,... More

Visited twice - Brusetta free - fantastic Starters - Fried courgette good but not best Mains - Stifado - Good but missing in flavour Mains Chciken - bit Dry Food overall was OK but the dried up chicken stopped us from going again. Everything is orgainic, service was good. Tucked away from main area. More

We have been going to Mike's Place for a number of years now and have always tried to forgive his complete inability to remember us as long standing customers but not any more. There is no glimmer of recognition in his eyes only £ signs. It as never been the prettiest setting but the quality of the food made used... More
