“Very Good Stamnas”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011

We ate in the Santa Barbara on the first night of our holiday. The view to the sea is lovely and it was pretty in the twilight, watching the boats. To start we had calamari and tzatziki and then for main course P had a big, thick swordfish steak and I had the stamnas. Wow! The meat was so tender and tasty. And there was so much of it! With a greek salad and some local wine, we thought the meal was very good value.

Several people in our hotel were ill after going to this restaurant. There are plenty of good places to eat so stay away from here.

“OK the first time ... then you get the idea”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2010

Nothing too badly wrong with this place. When you visit the first time you can be taken in by the welcome, and the service is not too bad, the view is tremendous and this all helps to disguise the fact that the food is actually fairly ordinary. If you go again you find that it is all a bit touristy and the food is not as good as it should be. Better to get away from that harbour end of the resort and to search out some better, more authentic tavernas; which is what we did, and did not regret it.
