Elia

Mykonos


Right on the beach of the same name, this light and bright restaurant is open right through from breakfast time. Seafood features prominently on the menu but there's a lot of grilled meat too: steaks, chicken gyros, burgers and a substantial mixed grill. Otherwise, just call in for a drink.
