It's been around for more than 40 years, and although the big dining-hall-style surroundings lack any inspiration whatsoever, Zephyros' high-quality fish meze (two people minimum) with eight different kinds of seafood still consistently gets the thumbs-up from locals. If you like seafood, this is one of the top choices in town; just don't expect ambience – it's all about the food.
