1. Alexis 4 Seasons
$$ | |Though known for its seafood, the handsomely decorated old rooms, beautiful walled garden, and panoramic view from the roof terrace found here are equalling enchanting. Mussels in wine, scallops in vodka sauce, shrimp risotto in an ouzo sauce, as well as simply grilled fish fill the menu. A side dish might be sautéed squash with wild glistrida (purslane), grown in the restaurant's own gardens.

- City-view terrace

2. Ali Restaurant
$ | |Popular among locals, this venerable Turkish-Greek joint has a catch-all menu that hits every comfort-food high note. Zucchini flowers filled with lip-smacking Greek cheese, aubergines bursting with meat, and filling pastitsio complement a vast choice of souvlakis and kebabs.
Artemisias 23, Kos, 85300, Greece22420-21860Known For

3. Benetos
$$ | |A native Patmian, Benetos Matthaiou, and his American wife, Susan, operate this lovely restaurant abutting a seaside garden that supplies the kitchen with fresh herbs and vegetables. These homegrown ingredients find their way into a selection of Mediterranean-style dishes that are influenced by the couple's travels and include house-cured sardines, the island's freshest Greek salad, and juicy slow-roasted pork atop a chickpea puree.

4. Broadway Restaurant
$ | |A cozy, family-run restaurant with an ambitious menu that does some very creative things with classic Greek cooking. A "krassotiri" crème brélee makes the most of the island's famous soft cheese, while mains offer an even tenderer touch, with pork cheeks nestled atop a chickpea ragout stealing the show. Excellent value for such skilled, imaginative food.
Alexandrou 36, Kos Town, Kos, 85300, Greece22420-27052Known For
- Creative takes on classic Greek dishes and produce
- Well-located away from the busy port

5. Broccolino
$$ | |Set apart from the scrummage of Lindos and buoyed by dizzying views over the bay below, this seductive Italian restaurant does everything well. The food—slow-cooked lamb, melt-in-the-mouth truffle gnocchi, juicy fillet steaks—is never less than glorious, and the house wine is great value. Low lights, good eating, and the flush of the ocean air make it an intoxicating combination. Try to book ahead because tables are rare. It is only open for dinner.
Lindos, Rhodes, 85107, Greece22440-31688Known For
- Great views
- A quiet spot
- Best Italian food on the island

6. Platanos
$$ | |Set on the shady square where Hippocrates reputedly once taught, this island institution maintains high standards for its cooking and top-notch service. Occupying an early-20th-century Italian club, the surroundings of tiled rooms and candlelit balconies are elaborate. Try the spiced, grilled lamb chops or famous pork and crackling (ellasonitiko). Live music accompanies meals most evenings.
Platia Platanos, Kos Town, Kos, 85300, Greece22420-28991Known For
- Romantic and historic setting
- Excellent dishes
- A bustling spot with sea views

7. Tholos
$$ | |A seaside perch at the end of Yialos Harbor is the picturesque setting for an excellent meal, which often begins with such traditional appetizers as stuffed zucchini or boiled greens (the taramosalata here might just be among the best in Greece) and includes fresh grilled fish and other daily home-cooked offerings. You may want to arrive early enough to enjoy sunset views of the harbor, and reserve far ahead—during peak summer season it can be booked out days in advance.
Waterfront, Yialos, Symi, 85600, Greece22460-72033Known For
- Sunset views
- Excellent Mediterranean dishes
- Polished service—not always a given on the island

8. To Marouli
$ | Old Town |Vegans and vegetarians aren't well catered for in Greece, where the "fish option" is typically your only alternative to a tombstone-sized slab of fried cheese. But this ingenious restaurant from chef Mara Martinotti is the antidote, and she has a recipe book to boot. Vegan soy-and-lentil moussaka as light and cheesy as anything you'll ever taste accompanies the likes of bang-bang cauliflower on an ever-changing menu of bites and larger dishes. The €16 tasting menu is as filling and satisfying as anything you'll find on the island. Look out too for its new bar, Ono by Marouli, in New Town, which is also good for a veggie snack.
Platonos 26, Rhodes Town, Rhodes, 85100, Greece22413-04394Known For
- Amazing vegan fare
- A cute setting away from the hustle
- Best tasting menu in town
-
9. Vaggelis
$$ | |Choose between a table on the main square (perfect for people-watching) or the raised terrace out back with stunning views of the sea. Fresh grilled fish and lemon-and-oregano-flavored goat are specialties of the traditional kitchen, and other simple dishes such as mint-flavored dolmades (stuffed grape leaves) and tzatziki (yogurt and cucumber dip) are the way to go.
Main square, Chora, Patmos, 85500, Greece22470-31967Known For
