Varoulko Seaside Restaurant Details PleaseOpen daily from 1 PM to 12 AMNeed To KnowMake a reservation for outdoor seating to enjoy the views of the Mikrolimano harbour.What Our Friends Are SayingTimeOut: "Varoulko is one of the most elegant sea-view spots in the city. The Michelin-starred chef Lefteris Lazarou specialises in taking traditional Greek dishes and adding a creative and flavourful seafood touch. For example, his take on the usually minced meat-laden moussaka is made with crayfish, while his pesto pasta is squid-infused. Make sure to try the smoked octopus prepared with wild greens called stamnagathi."Frommer's: "There are no bizarre combinations of ingredients, there is no foam—just excellent fresh everything. As a bonus, there's an Acropolis view from the rooftop terrace, which is open in summer. The fish could not be fresher, and what's on the plate was probably in the sea no more than a day earlier. That means that the menu varies with what's caught, but usually features crayfish, sea bass, monkfish, and lobster. If you've never had fish soup, squid, or octopus, you can't find it done better than here. There's also usually an excellent value €50 chef's recommended five-course special that changes frequently. For die-hard meat lovers, there are usually some choice cuts, sometimes including that increasingly rare delicacy, sweetbreads."
