3 Best Restaurants in Chios Town, The Northern Aegean Islands

Kronos Ice Cream Parlor

$ Fodor's choice

A favorite stop in Chios Town is this modern, trendy ice cream shop that has been making its best-selling praline ice cream since 1930. It's open from early morning well into the wee hours. The mastic-flavor ice cream is a must-try.

O Hotzas

$ Fodor's choice

Family portraits and brass implements hang below a wood-beam ceiling at this spacious taverna that shows off its 19th-century origins. In addition to deep-fried dishes, there's reliably good seafood, and it's delicious with the homemade retsina or ouzo. For dessert order yogurt with homemade cherry or quince preserves.

It doesn't flaunt itself in quite the same way as the other restaurants that line the port, but the food here is far superior, and the atmosphere significantly more grown-up. Pizza, pasta, and risotto dishes feature on the menu as well as Greek favorites like salads with feta, and grilled fish and meat.
