This charismatic little backstreet joint, decorated with herb garlands, utensils, event posters and even a vintage jukebox, is locally loved for its outstanding food and convivial atmosphere. The grilled octopus with fava-bean puree and sea fennel is superb, and you can taste unique cheeses from islands such as Naxos, Andros and Ios.
