One of the best meals we had during our three week tour of Greece. Before we ordered, the waiter took us over to show us the fresh seafood available for dinner. Two of us chose the whole fish grilled Sea Bream which was wonderful. Moist in the middle, but with a smoky, crisp skin that was delicious. The Shrimp Saganaki was also excellent with lots of shrimp and a delightful cheesy tomato sauce. One of our party of 6 was celebrating a birthday and the restaurant provided a complimentary ricotta flan dessert with ice cream for all of us. A very memorable evening!

We must have caught them on a bad night looking at other reviews. We only went here as we just arrived and it was near to our villa.
The view is very nice but the hospitality was dire. Miserable staff who basically yawned at our table, complained about all the wasps and served us lukewarm average food. The prawns were not fresh, frozen and they need to look up the definition of "Pesto" as I'm not sure the gravy the pawns were saved in matched the description.
We didn't hang around, paid the bill and never gave it a second thought to return.

After shopping on a very hot day in Nidri, we stopped here for drinks. Great location right on the waterfront in Nidri for people watching. We had fresh orange juice and frozen yoghurt with toppings which was delicious and sat at the front watching everyone walking up and down. Service was good even though it was busy and the waitress was pleasant.

"Kanioria" is a family restaurant located at the seafront.Nothing can be compared with dining at such a peaceful and beautiful place. Olive oil and fresh ingredients are used for our recipes. Try locally caught fish at reasonable prices here. House and regional wines are excellent. Dessert is always available.

We have been there 2 times in 2 days. Mussaka is amazing, the pizza is very good. Wine 0.5 kg for 3 euro. We simply loved it, there is always full of people, but they will find a place for you. Easy restaurant but you feel they really care about you in there. Prices are very low, we recommend it!

Established in 1977, Pantazis Taverna is one of the most famous taverns on the island. It is located in the harbour of Nikiana at the end of the road and in front of a beautiful, small beach with fabulous views across the sea to the Greek Mainland.You can enjoy great quality traditional home-made Greek food in a quiet, comfortable and friendly environment. Giannoula cooks every day with care using fresh fish and seafood supplied daily by the fishermen of the island. The same customers have visited the taverna for years and the new visitors leave satisfied and return again and again.Pantazis Taverna has the Certification of Greek Cuisine, awarded by the Greek National Tourism Organization - proof of the quality of service and food offered by the restaurant but also as a reward for the labours of the owners.Open daily from May until September.

I went the on a late-august night for a dinner with some friends.
The staff almost immediately offered us a table almost next to the see. The waiter / owner came immediately to get our order. We decided to go for a large fish (rofos), so we had a look at the fridge and decided which fish to get. The price of 45 euros / kg is a very reasonable price to pay for a big fish. It may sound a lot, but it is the correct price to pay. You cannot get big fishes (rofos, tsipoura, kefalos) for less.
In any case, the fish arrived within 30 minutes, as was foreseen by the waiter. The fish was excellently cooked. It has kept its 'juices', it was salted correctly and we couldn't stop eating :-)
We also ordered a side salad a fries which were impeccable.
The staff were very friendly and we had a good conversation with the waiter/owner.
To sum up, next time that pass by Lefkada, I will visit Pantazis even if that means a few extra kilometres on my itinerary!

Reviewed By Lwatson1970 - Evesham, United Kingdom
Ideal for a spot of people watching whilst enjoying a cold drink. We stopped here regularly as it came recommended and we were not disappointed. Friendly accommodating service and a wide bar menu from beers, cocktails and non alcoholic options for the kids (particularly the strawberry rush that proved itself very popular).
We also enjoyed a snack lunch on one occasion of baguettes, toasted sandwiches and burgers. The cheeseburger is much better that the generic photo in the board out front and the ice creams and crepes are excellent too.
Comfy seats, great views and excellent service and happy (4) hours to make it a good choice for a break.

I loved this bar, it s the only one in Lefkada where u can listen music during u lay down at beach, you cand see the sea, it s so close to you. Differences between Copla and NV Beach Bar, it s that Copla has music only at the pool, not at the beach, in the sand where you can see the sea. It s more luxury NV Beach Bar, the food it s great, it s veryyyy veryyyy good, the portions are big. In my opinion, It s the only beach in Lefkada that it s worth to go.

Greece is more famous for its gyros, but still, there are places that serve excellent Italian dishes and pizzas, and this is definitely one of them.
The pizza is really great, crispy and satisfying. The waiters are polite and speak great English, as well as a couple Balkan languages for their most faithful guests.
