Loles Kores

Dodecanese


This place is deceptive: you enter off the principal lane via basement stairs (with tasteful decorations of olde-world Greece), before entering a pretty, vine-covered rear terrace. The nicknamed 'Crazy Woman' conjures up gourmet delights: Greek cuisine with a gourmet touch. There's everything from the likes of giouvarlakia (lemon soup with meatballs) to salad with herring and pistachio. Fabulous daily specials.

It can be a little tricky to find – hidden in the maze of streets one block behind the harbour – but worth the effort.
