Never eat anywhere that doesn’t provide a menu or prices when you sit down there. Edited March 2, 2023 by Thisguylikestocruise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never eat anywhere that doesn’t provide a menu or prices when you sit down there. It is a long time problem (we have posted several times in the past). The good news is that apparently the authorities finally got tired of all the complaints and slapped that restaurant with a big fine said to be over 30,000 Euros. I assume they will quickly try to recoup that fine by ripping off even more tourists. We do like the adjacent beach and there are plenty of decent (and honest) restaurants/cafes at Playa Gialas.

Rare Thisguylikestocruise Posted March 2, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) I wonder if the local police would actually take customers to jail for refusing to pay the outrageous bills. People leaving reviews on Google maps have been charged up to $2,000 and are brought food & drinks they never asked for. The restaurant needs to be shutdown. https://nypost.com/2023/02/08/furious-couple-stuck-with-860-bill-at-notorious-greek-restaurant/ Restaurants in great locations can be a trap. I’ve witnessed it in Miami Beach. Also, around popular attractions like the Eiffel tower. They look good from the outside and later you regret it because the food, service, and prices were awful, and their goal is to gouge tourists. The best restaurants are often the ones locals dine at, off the beaten path, and they display menus with prices.

Some of the waiters in that restaurant look more like mob muscle than waiters. Over the years there have been numerous social media posts where folks said they were too intimidated not to pay. And it is very unlikely that you will ever see the police around the time you are presented with a check. Hank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wishing on a star Posted March 3, 2023 #6 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Glad to see that this is making more international headlines. Thanks for posting this here. This place has been warned against many times on sites like this. Too bad so many tourists just don't know. The locals and authorities DO know. But, alas....
