The view of the Restaurant is breathtaking. Definetely need a reservation in peak season but after 9 pm you can also find a table without waiting too much. Tried Kalymian Bruschetta. It is similar to Kalymian salad and delicious. Tuna tartar comes in a smoke glass and it is so fresh and tasty. Sailors pasta was amazing. The only thing is it gets too busy and the Service can get a bit slow. Would go there again for sure.
We didn’t have a reservation on a Friday evening but the restaurant still accommodated us. The lets us have a table long enough for dinner, which was so kind.
The service was fast and efficient. The servers were very kind and spoke English with us too.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was lovely. The views during sunset were incredible.
We ordered a variety of foods, all of which were delicious, especially the moussaka. They ended our meal with complimentary dessert too, which is so kind.
Lovely restaurant!
This is exactly what I imagine a proper Greek dinner to be. The atmosphere, the food, the view — everything just feels right. It’s lively, authentic, a little chaotic in the best possible way, and completely unpretentious. We came here four times in seven days, which probably says enough. If you want great food, the sea right in front of you and that real Greek feeling, I honestly don’t know why you’d go anywhere else than Aegean. Absolute gem!!!!
Excellent modern take of the traditional Greek tavern. The view is stunning, the quality of the food is superb featuring many Greek classic dishes, some of them re-imagined and some more close to the old school takes.
Expect a bit higher prices than the average in the island but it’s surely worth it and not just “pay for the location” kind of place.
Friendly and professional staff and overall great experience.
If you plan to visit after 17:00 definitely book in advance
The best on the island! The view is magnificent, the food is delicious, and the portions are generous. The staff are both highly professional and warm. The "saganaki on fire" comes with a surprise! I absolutely love the antique decorations. I recommend it to everyone.
