POULIS FISH TAVERNA

Wow, beautiful setting and amazing atmosphere, relaxing music playing and we literally had a table on the beach with the waves lapping up next to our feet. The food was stunning, just well made simple what it says it is, garlic mushrooms were just that, lovely mushrooms loads of garlic. We had a bream and a bass which were perfectly cooked and amazingly fresh and tasty. The sides were good too. We had wine which was also really good and the whole thing was well priced. Mostly though this place has a real authentic, relaxing, welcoming vibe and it’s not trying to be modern or fancy, it’s just a lovely traditional sea side taverna doing fairly straightforward food incredibly well. The staff there were all amazing, attentive when needed but not hanging over you all the time. They really cared whether we enjoyed it of not which we absolutely did. Would go back here in a heartbeat if you want some proper, simple but amazingly fresh and tasty food.

Enjoyed a nice leasurely meal for two. Table right on the edge of the harbour with views across to Spinalonga. Friendly owner & staff.

Bread with a small plate of olives, tzatziki and yellow pea dip (like a plain hummus). Then mixed starter for 2 - large portion enough for 3 or even 4. Whitebait, courgette tempura, stuffed vine leaves, spinach pie, cream cheese pie, cheese ball croquettes, tzatsiki, hummus, taramasalata, chips.

Mixed main - stuffed pepper, moussaka, beef stikado, roasted vegetables and an aubergines dish that was unfamiliar but delicious. Delicious fruity rosé from the owner's father.

No room for desert.

Finished with complimentary soft sponge and raki.

Good value good food good location

We had a great experience in this wonderful place. Elounda is so nice and this restoraunt is truly a gem. The food was great and the staff were super friendly. We had for starters the greek salad and the halumi cheese, both dishes were great. For main course we shared a mix plate of fish a sea food that was huge and very good. The service was good and the owner even treated us with their local traditional alcohol.

Fantastic food with great ,I can't say staf they treat you like a friend round for dinner. Totally amazing
