My partner and I spent 2 weeks in Pyrgos -Skafidia- (Olympian Village) in all inclusive, but we wanted also to taste the food in a local Greek restaurant.Just out of the Olympian village, on the left, there is a nice and good restaurant : Vythos.It is managed by a family: mother, father, daugheter and son.The cuisine is delicious ! They prepare very well both meat and fish and a lot of other dishes.Everything is made with care and it is very tasty!You can eat a lot of dishes (from starters to cake), and the price is not expensive: in average 23 ⬠per person included beverage (also very good wine!) and coffee.The family is very kind and show you also the fresh fish before cooking it.It is one of the best restaurant in Europe where we ate, and also where the owners are really special people careful to the the needs of their customers!We went there 5 times for dinner with friends during our stay in Pyrgos. We suggest you to try Vythos' food and to spend some words with the family that manage the restaurant.We want to thank them again and to tell them we always will remember in our life their good food, their kindness and their smiles !Ciao and big hug from Antonella and Maurizio (Italy).

Greek food, mostly barbequed meat, Greek salad, cheese pie. Everything is cooked at the time you order by the owner. Some times and only if there are fresh, you can eat fish, fish soup or hunting! Always ask if there is anything special of the day!

Whilst staying in Katakolon we were invited to this taverna in the small village of Korakohori a couple of miles away inland from the sea. We were made to feel very welcome in what is a locals taverna. The menu was great and there were good choices available. After our meal we were all given plates of fresh fruit and some ouzo. This taverna is highly recommended and if you are in the area of Katakolon take a taxi up here for a few euros.

We visited this beach, when we stopped off for a few hours off a cruise ship. This beach stretches quite a distance and the waters are very shallow - ideal for the not so good swimmer. There are 2 restaurants, each with free sunbeds as long as you purchase a drink or have food. Perfect.

After strolling around small but charming Katakolo we were a bit hungry. There are several options by the sea. This one had ok reviews, a good number of crew members from the cruise (always a good sign), a nice view, interesting menu and....some free tables, one right at front with good views (they have a huge amounts of tables).The staff here was - despite it really was busy - extremely friendly. Two cold beers arrived quickly with the menu. Many items looked interesting, we were looking for some fish and/or seafood.We decided on a seafood platter. Fried little fish, calamari, shrimp, octopus, cheese and some fries. Price was fair (for two). Everything tasted really good and fresh. The octopus was really tender (someting many can't pull off). We ordered two more beer....and they didn't arrive for quite a while until we reminded our waiter, but understanding it's a busy place. Came quickly after with the beer....on the house (because he kept us waiting). How nice was that.Good food, nice views, friendly staff. Fantastic option here in Katakolo.

We were on a cruiseship and our stop was in Katakolon. We decided to visit the local shops and went for a walk along the beach. Then we came across this restaurant (greeks seem to call it taverna) with lovely tables outside and with local people having lunch. This is ALWAYS a good sign. So we decided to sit down for our lunch. Very tasty Greek salad, Musaka and, pasta with shrimps.The portions were very very generous, we couldn't finish it all, the dish of pasta was so big that my teenagers shared one and very kindly the owner took the second one we ordered away and he did not charge us for it. Very friendly service, good food, reasonable price, beautiful views.

Filia looks like a quaint little restaurant/shop on the waterfront but surprised with the best Greek food we experienced on a 10 day vacation of Greek port cities. Also the prices are quite low for American standards. The restaurant has air conditioning which is a big plus for hot days but we did have to ask for the front door to be closed for it to have more effect. Overall a really good experience.
