Lefkatas Taverna

When we arrived, we weren’t allowed to sit at a table with a sea view because it was “reserved.” However, during the 1.5 hours we stayed, no one showed up for that table and the other terrace tables became empty — yet we were left in the corner with a view of an old house and a pole. The beefsteak was excellent, but the Greek pastitsio from the daily menu was reheated and disappointing. Overall poor rating due to service.

We had a great dinner at Lefkatas. The food is excellent. The view over the valley and sea is fantastic. Zucchini balls are the best we have tried in Greece. Not to be missed.

Best authentic greek food! Delicious and clean cuisine. And the service was also excellent. The waiter was very polite and friendly!

The best place to eat on the island. Amazing food - authentic Greek cuisine and the tastiest sea food we tried so far. The view was stunning and the staff was so nice and polite. Definitely recommend.

A dreamy Greek taverna in Lefkada! 🏝️ Everything was perfect — fresh ingredients from their own garden 🌿, delicious food, impeccable service, and an AMAZING staff ❤️. A place that will stay in our hearts — we highly recommend it!

My kids and I spent 4 nights in the village of Athani on Lefkada and had the pleasure of dining at this gem of a place every night. The owner, Phillip, is an amazing human who was so accommodating and generous with his advice and assistance during our stay, and on top of that, the food each night was incredible. We each had something different each night and every dish was exceptional. Great views, great wine, delicious meals and unforgettable Greek hospitality made this vacation (and return to my roots) one that we will never forget. Thank you for everything!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this remarkable restaurant, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of amazing. The location is serene, offering a breathtaking view that perfectly complements the dining experience. The food was absolutely delicious. Every dish was flavorful and well-prepared, showcasing the chef's expertise. Traditional dishes like feta, orzo pasta, and reganada were simply incredible, highlighting the authenticity and skill in the kitchen. Even the Italian dishes were executed to perfection, a true testament to their culinary versatility. The staff was youthful, accommodating, and exceedingly friendly, always ready to assist with anything we needed. Their attentiveness and warm hospitality made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant. You won't regret it!

We stopped here on the way back from Egremni, and it was one of the best lunches we have had on the island. We started with fried calamari, courgette balls, and marinated anchovies. I can’t tell you which was better - they all had their own star quality. But it was definitely a good mix if you are unsure on what to get. We had also added bread (I’m with an Italian, so this is a staple for a meal) and it was the best bread we have had. I think the bread here on the Ionian islands always tends to be very hard but this one was airy and springy - similar to a classic farmhouse loaf in the UK. We chose the local rose wine, it is quite sweet so I enjoyed it very much. But I wouldn’t be able have more than the 1/2 litre they give you. For a main course, we shared the fish of the day which was sea bream. It was perfect. I have no other words. Feeling very full, we asked about a digestive. They recommended a local wine mixed with honey. Incredible! Very sweet so we loved it. If you are on your way to/back from Egremni, I highly highly recommend this restaurant - the service is top! Very friendly, funny and welcoming. Beautiful views and nice atmospheric music.
