Casual Dining · Greek taverna

Kanoula

A perennially packed neighbourhood taverna in the upper old town, and one of the highest-rated places to eat in the whole city — the kind of unfussy spot locals quietly send you to. The cooking is honest, generous home-style Greek: slow-braised beef over silky puree, prawns in a tomato-feta sauce, baked feta with honey and sesame, and a properly dressed village salad, all at fair prices. The room is small and cosy and the service warm; come early or book, because it fills most nights.
