"Located just inside the old town is this gorgeous restaurant with a beautiful garden. We stopped for a drink but ended getting some of the best pasta we’ve had in Kos! Personal recommendation is the salmon e tagliatelle or the spicy pancetta amatriciana. Super friendly staff too."

"The restaurant has a lovely terrace, perfect for enjoying a relaxed meal outdoors. The staff were professional, and the atmosphere was pleasant. The pasta was delicious and well-prepared, while the pizza was average – not bad, but nothing special. Overall, a decent dining experience."

"You can dine in as well as get take out, which came in very handy. The first time we took out, the second time we dined in. The terrace where we sat on had a cozy atmosphere, and the food was well made. We had the spaghetti aglio e olio, and the pizza salame napoli. If you like Italian fold, this place is worth a visit."
