Was in Aegina a week and this was our favourite spot we had food at. Extremely homey atmosphere with a view that is absolutely spectacular. All dishes were amazing whileThe cuttlefish & roasted stuffed peppers were 10/10. Nothing bad to say absolutely phenomenal spot

Magical little traditional taverna on the sea, excellent food made with the most flavourful local vegetables and fish caught on the day. Kyria Vaggelio cooks in the most homey way possible These are the kinds of places we want to see on the island.

Great, family owned and run taverna, great views. Greatly fried small cod, fresh salad and chips. The only one we didn't like was spicy cheese dip, which was neither spicy or cheesy. But we told the owners and they assured us they'd take care of the issue

Andrea Gemma Hocking

Lovely little family run business, they serve beautiful dishes of fresh food and the biggest bonus is the view as the restaurant is located in the most beautiful setting with the beach a stone-throw away, well worth the trek to Portes! A must-try if you're in Aegina and if you've got a car or a quad bike, you ought to make the journey because it's well worth it!
