Kingston


Jamaica's only Greek restaurant, recently moved to a new location inside Devon House, is the place to go if you're craving good lamb, sharp feta and fresh seafood. The Greek classics hold true, but other things get an inventive twist, such as the lamb burger that comes in a phyllo wrapper rather than a bun.

We could eat the grilled octopus all day and into the night, when the outside bar becomes a chilled Mediterranean-Caribbean lounge.
