This small family taverna is hidden down a lane near the Park hotel. The food was really good and the service was great. The whole family went for a meal ( all 8 of us ) and were made very welcome. My personal recommendation would be the lamb kleftiko as it was bursting with flavour.

I tried Valentino's this year as I wanted to continue to sample some other restaurants in Tsilivi. What can I say, I was shocked by the poor service, the mains took eventually almost an hour and a half to come out. They ran around as if they were busy with only a few customers including myself and a couple of... More

Very sad that the night we visited this restaurant we were the only clients, possibly as it was very early in the season. Some items on the menu were not available and the food we chose was more salty than we would have liked. Staff were good, worth giving a try though as we have had great meals here on... More

We ate here on our first night in Tsilivi. We came armed with a list of places that we absolutely had to try out and we were not disappointed with Valentina's. Despite the British staff (she was incredibly polite and attentive at all times), Valentina's Castle offered an incredibly authentic experience. The food was quite simply: stunning! We lapped it...

Had been wanting to try this place for a while due to the great reviews so decided to venture there in September. What can I say? Lady who greeted us was quite abrupt. Food was Ok but nothing special. Only two veggie options which wouldn't have been a problem had they not had parmesan cheese sprinkled all over them which... More

Valentinas Castle was chosen as the family owners had agreed to close the restaurant for our party and cater to alll our needs.... More

The first night we visited we enjoyed the freshly cooked food on offer and enjoyed every mouthful, they unfortunately were all out of the rabbit stifardo...however they asked when we would visit again and promised they would have it available for us,...

Off the beaten track this place is a goldmine. Before the starters arrived we were served lovely fresh bread with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and herbs...delicious! Ordered King prawns in sweet chilli sauce as starters which were very tasty. The main consisted of rabbit for myself and sardines for my boyfriend...both dishes were outstanding. The service and the surroundings were... More
