Great view of Chios... they have Lots of tables but only a few people to serve... You try to find a server to order... Lots of reminders to get the missing food. Live music is quite slow and doesn't trigger people to dance.. it is not a pricey place.. sometimes navigation is not sufficient to find the place..

We sat on the upstairs Terrace and had a lovely meal, with excellent service. There was live music coming from inside (downstairs), and we sat amongst a mix of local families and some visiting american professors. It was wonderful--we would definitely return on a future trip to Chios.

We hadn't booked and were a party of about 8 and were lucky to be squeezed in on a Saturday night. Lovely courtyard to eat in but ask for the mosquito repellant! Entertaining animal activity in the trees above!! The food was delicious. The service was fine. It was a memorable meal and I would make it the first stop if I visit Chios again.

Absolutely loved this restaurant right on the beautiful Lithi beach. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, stopping to have a chat with us and answer questions about the local area. We both had the greek salad and the stuffed squid. The stuffed squid was the best Ive had in Greece (and we have been eating it a lot), I loved how fresh and well cooked it was. And at such an affordable price.
The best thing is your lunch comes with free use of the umbrellas on the beach, and free use of their car park- very handy.

Nice spaghetti bolognese... the gyros was quite good also. Not the best though. Good prices.. something however was missing. Like the atmosphere or the decoration? Staff was polite. We would visit again!

When in Chios town To Kechrimpari is a must visit for the best Greek meze and Raki. Remember they close in the late noon and reopen for dinner, so just call before u go to make sure they are open.

I wish we did not go after Agira restaurant.we went there because of people to make nice comments.It was really disappointing.Salad ingredients are very mediocre.I think people are over-exaggerated ..people can find for the same price much nicer places.The food was very ordinary

Meltemaki restaurant is located about 13 km from the town of Chios in the non touristy, quaint village of Katarraktis. Our family of 10 including 1 six year old ate at least 4 meals here--mainly lunch and dinner. Tables outside along the seafront are covered with red checked cloths and then overlaid with paper traditional Greek designs "cloth". Service is excellent and the menu of local traditional foods is very good. We especially liked the saganaki, the meatballs, spinach balls, calamari, shrimp, fried zucchini, tomato balls. Don't forget the Ouzo! We took our time eating and talking and others of us, particularly the six year, old spent time at the waterside skipping rocks and searching for colorful sea glass. Even the adults had fun skipping rocks. Dining here is relaxing,peaceful and quiet with the crystal clear turquoise blue water 10 feet away. It was very cool and pleasant during the heat of the day with the breeze and shade trees.

Nice restaurant on the central road of Chios Town. I have learned about it by local collegues and everything i was told was true. All of them told me about the delicious fish plates but as i am meat lover i ordered kebab. It was great. For side order a plato with small cheese, potato and chese/ham pies. With a bottle of coke and a large bottle of water paid 15€. Fast service, nice and helpful staff. You can also pay by card.
