Fodor's Expert Review Salto

This wine bar–and-bistro is as famous for its food as for a very extensive wine list and a magnificent outlook across the Old Port to the massive walls of the New Fortress. Using pure ingredients from small producers all over Greece, the menu takes traditional Mediterranean dishes and moves them into trendsetting territory. Octopus tempura, marinated anchovies, and salmon carpaccio make meze-inspired starters, and you might follow with a herb-encrusted rack of lamb or basil butter–dressed salmon fillet accompanied by briam, the local ratatouille.
