Molyvos Stars

Reviewed By traheg

We ordered a table when passing by earlier in the day. A breathtaking view was the attraction. We had a souvlaki, with grilled vegetables and tzatziki on the side. Everything was tasteful, the only thing was that the grilled vegetables arrived way to early and was cold before the rest of the dish arrived. I also (but that goes for Greece as such, not only molyvos I guess) always look for a sparkling wine of some sort, but they rarely have any. The staff could also have been a bit more attentive. But all in all we had a great evening here as the sun set. Can definitely recommend the place!

Taverna Alonia

Reviewed By jacjon86

We ate at Taverna Alonia a couple of weeks ago on a Wednesday evening when they had live Greek music on and loved it. A very traditional taverna with great food. We had garlic mushrooms to start and beef giouvetsi and stuffed tomatoes for mains which was really delicious. All the food coming out looked very good. We would definitely visit again next time we are in Molyvos.The Greek music is on twice a week on Wednesdays & Saturdays.

Dilino Restaurant

We are a family business since 2000. We are located before the harbour, near the Pirates bar. We are known for our local grill meat, Greek traditional meze etc. We are open every day from morning until late night! The combination of our food and our view

Reviewed By RamseyCampbell

Splendid food largely based on their own produce, and impressively substantial. Fine fava, flavoursome stuffed squid, exemplary lamb chops (and certainly a full plate!) and garlic lamb in the oven. Very pleasant and friendly service, and the sunset view is a lovely bonus. We returned several times and would again.

Reviewed By Sooloilija

Having spent most of my Molyvos vacation elsewhere than the harbour, decided to eat at this Tjäreborg recommended restaurant. Everything I (eventually) got in front of me, was tasty and delicious. But - I wasn't attended to, looked after by the staff. I arrived a bit early, got my fresh juice in front of me quickly - with a smile and a friendly word. From then on, as the restaurant was filling with groups of people, I was left alone. The food I ate (papoutsakia) was simply divine! But no-one came to ask if I had enjoyed my dinner, if I wanted another drink - I had to ask for the waiter to come to me. Sometimes it took some time, as they were busy servicing the other tables. Not good customer service at all.I had a word about this with a member of staff - possibly a shift manager. He first said they had not approached me bec I was reading my book at the table - "you were busy all the time." What?!?! Don't they want to sell their food or drinks? He later denied everything - "I'm sorry but what you are saying is wrong, my waiters never did that. Needless to say, I cannot recommend this place.Needless to say, I do not recommend this restaurant to any single passenger.

Kismet Restaurant

Reviewed By Sherrydarling

At the end of the harbour, just before the Captains Table. Small & friendly, brilliant service & food. We visited 3 times. We tried the marinated tuna which was absolutely delicious, a great alternative to marinated anchovies & something we never would have ordered without the suggestion; a WOW dish. Fresh seabass was grilled to perfection & served with a lovely salad & oregano sprinkled chips. Grilled octopus with soft & crispy bits & a beautiful flavour. We tried some great Greek wines from the wine list too. The hospitality here was wonderful, we received a gift of marinated tuna to take home; it survived the journey! Don't miss this place, we'll be back.

The Captain's Table

A popular water front restaurant in the harbour of Molyvos on Lesvos. Serving mezedes (tappas) With a variety of different Mediterranean dishes, vegetarian and meat and fresh fish.

Reviewed By PaulBarnard

The Captains Table is one of our favourite restaurants to eat when in Molyvos. Lovely setting on the harbour with a view of the village and castle. On our visit to the Captains Table last year we were slightly disappointed with the meal we received. Not the usual standard we had become to expect at the Captains Table!! We decided to give the Captains Table another chance on our return to the island this year. Wow what a difference we were certainly not disappointed this time round (not sure if it’s new owners). Lovely well prepared and tasty food served by lovely knowledgable staff. Meze style dining and we choose six dishes (main portions also offered) from the menu. The nice member of staff that served us recommended the baby squid as an alternative to the calamari that we had chosen. The baby squid was delicious and a good recommendation. Thank you. We also the had fava dip, grilled octopus, spinach and cheese croquettes, ladatori saganaki and little meat pies - all delicious. Nothing disappointed and finished off with delicious peanut brittle. When we are back on Lesvos we will be certainly visiting the Captains Table again. Thank you so much for your review and i am so glad you tried our restaurant again after your experience last year ( we are the same owners and cooks for the last 25 years )

Reviewed By Melanie037

We visited this restaurant on our final night in Molyvos as I’d read the great reviews. Perhaps I was expecting too much. It was friendly and had lovely views but more expensive than other restaurants serving very similar food. I had the Gigantes - giant beans but not giant portion (yes I admit it’s a starter but at other places I got a bigger portion as a starter). It’s clear that it’s a place where regulars go and there were lots of happy faces (almost like customers were family). Perhaps a few visits are needed to get this level of service that others seemed to have. No end of meal watermelon, or small drink which means I am rating lower than the nearby Tropicana which was absolutely superb! Meal was tasty enough but not outstanding.
