A good time is assured at this atmospheric village restaurant overlooking vineyards and the 1780 Ayios Yioryios church. The menu includes goat stew, wonderfully tender octopus and platefuls of meze, all washed down with carafes of the house-made wine. Baba Yorgo produces a knock-your-socks-off retsina, an eminently quaffable red blend and a more sophisticated organic cabernet sauvignon.
