Aegean

Peloponnese


One of a cluster of tavernas around the main square, Aegean certainly has some tourist pricing – €9 for taramasalata? – but also has some cheaper dishes and distinguishes itself with an extensive array of vegetarian options. Only local produce is used. Don't miss the excellent baklava.
