4 of us shared a mixed meze and a fish meze. Pretty much everything was good, with the cuttlefish, liver and octopus stew being the favourites. Service was snappy, the bill was very reasonable and there's a nice view over the bay. You could definitely do a lot worse. More

If you want to eat fish whilst in Pissouri this is the place I would recommend. The fish meze is good value and my personal favourite is the soft shelled crabs. Yes the restaurant has it flaws but somehow this adds to its charm and has not put us off going back. More

Not the cleanest of places, not the best of food. This place is on an ideal location and could have been so much better. Some of the dishes were superb, some less so...It feels like the owners do not really bother... Service was rather poor as well... More

I know reviews here are good and maybe my expectations were too high because of that, but I and my family were dissapointed with the service (some serious service issues..) and the food is OK and not that great as describe here, its the same in all tavernas in Cyprus, nothing special. Combined that with bad attitude in service, I... More

Appearances can be deceiving! This restaurant really doesn't look much from the outside, but don't be fooled! Venure up the stairs inside, and try the kalamari - it's truly fabulous here, as is the mixed meze. The best restaurant in Pissouri. More

This is one of the best (if not the only one) seafood taverna in Pissouri. The fish is fresh and the service very friendly. We went there several times this summer and the best time to go there is after 7 pm when the sun sets. Their outdoor seating has a fantastic seaview which makes the experience even better. With...

Still as good as ever. The owners and staff are very obliging and provided a great service. Fresh food and cooked to perfection. Only complaint is.. Too much but the rice is to die for. More

Dirty place, mediocre food, bad service. We went there after reading all positive reviews. First of all, cutlery, plates and glasses were not clean. Secondly, Fish didn't look very fresh as they claim in every previous review. We ordered meze and calamari as it was mentioned that these are the best dishes there. When it came there was huge disappointment.... More

Many people have recommended the Yialos for its fish menu, Therefore my wife and I tried the fish meze (19 euro perhead, the typical price) and weren't disappointed; the octopus, sea bream and cuttlefish were our favourite dishes but all the others weren't far behind. For those who don't like fish, they also have a typical range of kebab/grill meals... More
