Εστιατόριο Ξυλόσκαλο

The pictures alone cannot express how breathtaking the views from the restaurant terrace are... I find it hard to write this review, but you have to visit and see for yourselves. If you can - sit next to the pine tree in the corner, enjoy the shade and have a peek at the old roots wrapping around the rocks. Other than that the food was actually delicious, something I didn't expect from (what I assumed is) a tourist hotspot. I had stuffed vegetables and some of the local cheese with butter.

Had an amazing time, the views are superb the staff were very friendly and accommodating. It was very quiet around mid day, the grilled lamb was exceptional. I would definitely recommend to anyone. An amazing drive up into the mountains.

Amazingly beautiful place and great restaurant with the stunning views 🤩 It's looks very traditional, the food was excellent, we tried many dishes, everything was the best! 👍

Don't waste your time reading this review! JUST GO AND EXPERIENCE THIS AMAZING PLACE! The views are amazing and the food is equally as good. I am afraid of heights, but I felt secure the whole time and was in awe of the beauty this restaurant provides! Our group ordered a wide variety of food and everyone enjoyed their meals. The prices are fair (especially for the ambience) and the portions are large. If you do not feel like sitting outside, there are seats inside, away from the edges. Additionally, there are more seats on the outside deck that are a little further up the side of the restaurant. We did have one person with a handicap, but they were able to walk the stairs up into the restaurant. But please keep in mind that there is no elevator. There is a Cafe prior to reaching the restaurant while driving that is handicap accessible. But we did not stop there. There is no parking lot for the restaurant and you will need to park on the side of the road. There was only one person servicing the customers and making drinks and one person cooking when we visited. He was running to the other tables (5 other tables during our visit). However, their service was excellent and we did not feel forgotten.

The view is amazing The food portion is huge, I recommend sharing the plates Service is very slow

Perfect place after hiking to Samaria Gorge! Welcome warm staff. Highly recommended.!

One of the most beautiful locations for lunch I've been to. It is a drive to get there but you will see in my picture how fantastic the view. Food was great and the portions were also good.

We came in the peak holiday season; the weekend after New Year. The place was packed and the wait to order was expectedly long. The food didn’t come long after. So, we were not as unlucky as some of the reviews. We ordered the Xyloskalo salad, cooked lamb, potatoes with mizythra cheese, and lamb chops. All dishes were excellent except for the lamb chops; you had to look for meat on them. The house red wine was excellent.
