Pidalio Tavern

This is definitely a must visit place in Nafplio. The interior is typical in appearance for a taverna but the food is definitely much more elevated and the menu is more diverse and creative with items that I hadn't yet seen. Food presentation was excellent too. We had the beets and giant bean salad, pumpkin soup, pata negra gyros (which were amazing deconstructed gyros), and sea bass filet.

Nice enough food. Upmarket Greek food restaurant. No wow factor though sadly. Not sure the Greeks do upmarket well l think they are better off sticking with their classic Greek dishes. I ordered the octopus €16.50 and Horta €6. Three of the pieces of octopus were very dry. Horta was ok. However l have had much better. Good service. Dogs allowed outside only so wasn’t great for us as it was 4 degrees even though we had a heater. Complimentary dessert and liqueur was a nice touch.

We had a wonderful experience at Pidálio Tavern. The food was taste was so good, and the presentation was beautiful. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the staff were kind and attentive. We were also treated to free special homemade desserts, which was such a lovely surprise. A perfect spot to enjoy traditional Greek dishes. Highly recommended!

Came here by recommendation from a local and was super happy we tried it out. Their menu seemed very creative to me with lots of Greek staples that had a twist to them. As a person who eats gluten-free & vegetarian I had the super yummy risotto. Also their service was really helpful and friendly. Make sure to come here when you’re in Nafplio

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.

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.

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

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.
