Mykonos restaurants: our suggestions

There are so many restaurants in Mykonos that it is not easy to make the right choice for dinner, especially if you have only a couple of days to explore the island. Our guests often ask us “where do the locals eat?”, meaning the places with authentic Greek atmosphere, not crowded, serving fresh traditional food. Well, during the high season there is almost no place in Mykonos without crowds, but there are still many original taverns where locals and tourists are eating together, sharing beautiful atmosphere and unique smell of the sea, fried “kalamarakia”, garlic and grilled meat.

Here is a list of some of the taverns that you don’t want to miss while on the island:

Nikolas taverna

Old style taverna on the wild Agios Sostis beach. There is no electricity at Kikis and everything is cooked on fire like the old times. No electricity, no reservations and always a queue at the entrance. Lunch only, since Kikis is open only until the sun goes done.
