Tucked in a quiet corner of Mykonos Town, on a picturesque whitewashed street lined with bougainvillea, you’ll find talented chef Pavlos Grivas at work in his modern, open kitchen perfecting his innovative Mediterranean fusion dishes. Starters delight, reflecting the traditional products of Mykonos, including a uniquely flavorful panna cotta with kopanisti cheese, dried figs, and Greek prosciutto. The main dishes range from seafood, vegetarian, and meat dishes to gluten-free choices. Try the seared Mediterranean tuna and smoky aubergine mousse with lemon dressing. Finish with desserts that elegantly surprise, such as a peach crême brulée with house-made mint ice cream. Creative cocktails and excellent service round out the experience.
For many repeat visitors a trip to Paros is unthinkable without a visit to Siparos. This storied eatery is along the coast of Naousa Bay in the beach town of Santa Maria and well deserves its reputation as one of the island's finest. A stunning seaside location is enhanced by an elegant and modern design. Bold, contemporary tastes are teased from traditional recipes but it is in the fish dishes that the local Paros flavors sing loudest.
Overlooking pretty Platis Gialos Beach, Avli tou Thodori offers beachfront dining in an elegant Cycladic setting. More of a taverna than banging beach bar, the focus is on an eclectic Greek-centered menu and excellent presentation.The name of the restaurant translates to Thodori's yard, a dedication to owner Thanassis Kousathanas's late father, a Mykonian fisherman whose black-and-white portraits are hung with pride.
Tables spill out onto the alley at this relaxed Plaka restaurant where the focus is on fresh flavors. Traditional recipes are refined but still recognizable. This is modern Mediterranean cooking at its best with confidence in ingredients that taste of the land. The personable staff keep things moving, even handing out wine to those waiting to dine. It is worth the wait.
In a former historic tomato cannery off the Ayios Georgios section of Perivolos Beach, Forty One is a chic, stylish destination for fine Mediterranean dishes, with a calming sea view. Besides creatively presented favorites like regional salads, risotto, pasta, and freshly grilled seafood plates, there are a host of creative cocktails that steal the show and make a fine accompaniment to taking in the black-beach sunset.
The colorful taverna-style restaurant is set in a bougainvillea-laced courtyard at the end of the "Dining Mile" in Ermoupoli. Local Cycladic ingredients are fused with modern techniques and cooking styles to good effect on the menu, with influences from Thessaloniki and the further Mediterranean. Presentation is intricate and picturesque and the service is welcoming from the proud husband and wife owners.
A cute wooden doorway leads to three levels of dining terraces that mean getting that all-important cliffside view is easier here than most and the international menu is no slacker either. Asian and Indian flavors mix with Mediterranean tastes to offer something a little different from your traditional taverna.
A lovingly decorated mansion is home to the best cellar on the island with a deep and extensive international list. The food is no afterthought though; eclectic and creative magic goes on in the kitchen as a mainly Mediterranean menu is put through its paces. The rooftop terrace is a favorite for sunset views, but the vaulted-ceilinged dining room can be a wiser option on blustery summer evenings—either way, it is a wonderful place to spend an evening.
