Amazing service! Maria, our host, was super attentive and made our whole experience of visiting serifos a lot better. Not only that, but the food was delicious as well! One of us was gluten intolerant and she made sure to find the perfect meal for our friend. Everything was excellent! Definitely I will come back when visiting again the island! Thank you Maria!

Cozy place with great owner. Fair prices especially if you compare them with the overpriced taverns/kafeneia in serifos. Tip: order rakomelo which is made by the owner.
