Taverna O Platanos

Naxos


Set beneath the shade of its namesake plane tree, this lively family restaurant is deserving of its Aegean Cuisine certification. The chunky hamburger comes filled with gooey Naxian Gruyère, the Naxian potato fries are moreish and the platanos (grilled pork chunks) come with a back note of oregano and thyme, and with a side of valley views.
