Milies (Greek: Μηλιές) is a village and a former municipality in Magnesia, Thessaly, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality South Pelion, of which it is a municipal unit. The municipal unit has an area of 63.754 km. It is a traditional Greek mountain village, at a height of 400 m on Mount Pelion. It is 28 km from Volos, the capital city of Magnesia. Milies is connected with the GR-34A (Volos - Promyri) It has traditional stone houses, cobbled roads, good restaurants and accommodation in abundance. Milies is also notable for being the terminus of the narrow gauge (60 cm) Pelion Railway, built between 1895 and 1903 by the Italian engineer, Evaristo de Chirico, father of the famous artist Giorgio de Chirico. This proved to be of considerable economic advantage to the region. The recently railway runs between Ano Lechonia and Milies twice a week at the weekend. The village commands striking views across the Pagasetic Gulf and benefits from the many streams and water sources for which Mt. Pelion is renowned. These result in rich vegetation and cool, forested mountain slopes.

We were in Tsagarada for two weeks and we ate nine times at Aleka restaurant. Honest food, more than enough, tasty, for normal prices. Nice Terrace, good friendly service. Starter and bread for free. If you don't order desert you get fruit for free too.
Recomended.

This restaurant e is situated at a busy square towards the entrance of Tsagarada.
The outside tables around the tree add to the romantic 'past times' feel. some of the tables also enjoy some lovely uninterrupted view of the Mountains. We were a large group of two families but the staff sorted everything out with great efficiency. Everything we ordered was great. Prices were Ok. Because the place is very busy pre-booking is highly advised.

This is where you find the real Greek hospitality and can feel real Greek spirit. After giving them a chance for first night, we ended up going there all other nights. Really great team of young people so polite, so in service, so kind, that you get a feeling that you're the only guest in restaurant. And believe me, there can be a line waiting to be seated.
If coming to Kala Nera and neighborhood, make a visit here and believe me, you won't regret it.

Maybe it was the end of the season.... It started well with homemade dips and bread and a delicious fig and blue cheese salad but the main courses were disappointing and felt pre cooked and heated up rather than fresh. Only one dessert offered but nice fruit platter. Lovely setting and good service

We have been welcomed very friendly.
Compared to previous years they have someone welcoming you by entering the square.
Order was received fast and food was delivered as it comes out of the kitchen.
We prefer this because of having young children.
Unfortunately they have no bottled wine and their own one was just ok.
Food and prices were I good relationship.

We had tried to have dinner there at 27/12. Unfortunately they had run out of almost everything hence we had to accept whatever they were prepared to offer.Not exactly the ideal kind of a restaurant at a popular resort during a high season period.

As a regular visitor to Kala Nera I can say that Nirvana is one of the better restaurants in the village. I definitely recommend trying the vast variety of ready cooked meals (mageirefta) available as they are all very tasty and the portions are generous. Ask the waiter to take you inside and show you the ready cooked meals as they are placed in hot trays. You will get to see a nice variety of home-made Greek food.

I made my birthday dinner to Ibiskos and we really enjoy it. Even though we were about 20 people we were served on time and the dishes were delicious. The staff are all very polite and extremely helpful. I strongly recommend it. We will do it again.
9. Oinomezedotherapefterio o Giorgaras

The restaurant occupies the square (plateia) of Vyzitsa, a village about two kilometres from Milies. The plateia is sheltered from the hottest sun by three giant plane trees, and overlooks the deep blue of the Pagasitic Gulf 500 metres below. In the background is the gurgle of the old village Fountain (Vrisi). We have been visiting this setting for twenty years to enjoy the distinctive local food. The Giorgaras (I defy you to pronounce the first part of the name, least of all after a few glasses of the local 'Mavro Peliou' wine), is the latest restaurant to open here. We visited with high expectations, and were not disappointed and returned night after night. The service by the family itself is extremely friendly and the prices very reasonable - 20-30 Euros ($27-40) for two, including wine. The quality of the meat is excellent - all locally bred - as is the mainly locally grown vegetable. Their arni lemonato (lamb cooked in lemon) was tender and delicious. So was their speciality 'Chanoum Mpoxa' (stuffed pork in an orange sauce). So was the rabbit cooked with juniper. Meals in Greece are not divided into 'starter, main and dessert', nor are meat dishes accompanied by vegetables. You order either salads or vegetable dishes prepared in olive oil ('ladhera'). We were lucky enough to be present when they hosted a musical feast, in which the souvla'd pork and veal were perfectly tender, moist and delicious. They served the regional succulent speciality 'boubari', to me somewhere between haggis and boudin and not to be missed. The owners of the Giorgaras and musicians made sure everyone had a great time.

Good restaurant located in a small village of Kala Nera. The staff was excellent, the food was tasty and prices were reasonable. The owner is a great man!
We weren't hungry and that's why we ate only zucchini, very tasty Greek salad, grilled sardines, tzaztziki and ordered a bottle of retina. We paid 20 euro and got an ice-cream as a compliment from the house.
