Pidalio Tavern

It’s a really tastiest place in Greece! All dishes was awesome. Be sure to try orzo!!! The taste the great! Fried squid is very tender, fresh and not overcooked. The dessert at the end was incredible. I won't tell you what it was, so you'll have to come and try it for yourself.

Run, don’t walk, to this place! All dishes were superb and good value. Eggplant puree in the breaded octopus is to die for - Grape beans salad: generous sharing portions. The cream cheese and yogurt mix + honey made the mouthfeel luxurious while not being overly rich - Grilled veg: the veggies were grilled nicely, and it was accompanied by a slightly fruity, mustard sauce which was nice. My only con was that the portions could be larger - Breaded octopus with eggplant puree and caramelized onion puree: oh my gosh I could eat this dish all day. The octopus was meaty and tender. Both purées were excellent. But the eggplant puree was slightly sweet and smoky without being overpowering. It went well with everything - Grilled meat platter (small): this came with four types of meat, a lemony sauce, and mustard. The beef patty was my favourite as it was well seasoned and had sweet onion bits inside. The sausage was also delicious. The pork had a great char flavour. The chicken was very large portion but could be slightly more moist - House white wine: aromatic like a Riesling. Perfectly drinking Kormos was the complimentary dessert per person. The biscuits were nice and crunchy, contrasting from the richer surroundings. Not too sweet Total came to €65 for 4 people

One of the most delicious meals I’ve had and really enjoyed everything we had. We tried the grilled octopus, the Giosa with slow cooked lamb, eggplant saganaki. The fish of the day (sea bream) was so fresh and tasty and more than enough for 2 people. The cocktail was unique.

Disappointing Experience – Did Not Meet Expectations ​We visited with high hopes, but the overall experience was truly disappointing. One, it not the main, issue was the wait time. We waited more than 30 minutes for our main courses, and this only happened after we inquired about the delay with the waiter. ​When the food finally arrived, the quality was terribly disappointing. The pork sausage was overcooked, tough, and very poor quality, almost inedible. While the lamb, as promised, was tender due to its 24-hour slow cooking, it was completely flavorless and over salted. ​The only redeeming part was the lemon beef, which was quite good. However, one dish cannot compensate for the significant shortcomings. We expected much more from a chef's restaurant and got even less experience than a workers' canteen.(after 9 days in Greece, the less recommended place)

This is a wonderful restaurant with a consistently high standard of food and service. ​For our meal, we enjoyed a Greek salad, tsatziki, and fresh bread, followed by three main courses of fish and seafood. We paired this with two glasses of Iris red wine. ​The service was very professional, yet friendly and genuinely helpful. ​A complimentary dessert was provided — it was simple but very tasty and perfectly complemented our dinner. ​The prices are not cheap, but they are more than reasonable for the quality. ​I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant.

The Good: Exceptionally fresh vegetables in the Greek salad, high-quality feta, and an elegant presentation. The smoked Metsovo cheese donuts were excellent — rich, slow-smoked sheep cheese perfectly balanced with fig jam and a silky ricotta mousse. The Bad: Everything was well-made but played it a bit too safe. Tasty, yet lacking any bold twist or originality. The Ugly: No fresh calamari available, only frozen, so we passed. The Beautiful: You can sense real care in the ingredients and plating, and the use of Metsovo cheese gives it a distinct local soul. Conclusion: A restaurant that knows its craft and respects its ingredients, but could use a spark of imagination to truly stand out.

Amazing food. A really surprising standard from quite an assuming taverna on a main road. They had a page of specialties and the slow cooked lamb came presented as if it were a Michelin restaurant. The garlic foam was so punchy but it worked really well to eat together with the lamb and smoked aubergine. The desert was similarly complex and clever. Big portions and perhaps a bit rich overall, but so good.

Our best dinner in Greece so far after 2 weeks and 6 towns. Staff super friendly and helpful. Relaxing, tasty and enjoyable! Even a free traditional Greek dessert!
