Taverna Andreas Aléktor

Messinia


Traditional Greek dishes are served with aplomb by the friendly and accommodating multilingual husband-and-wife team, Andreas and Irini. Often there's live music on Sundays; linger with a beer or carafe of house wine.

The taverna is a member of MedDiet, meaning they use only locally sourced fresh products.
