What customers say?

“ I’ve been stopping at Lefteris with my guests for over 6 years now, at least 15 visits in total as a professional skipper. Every single time, the food has been nothing less than excellent and the service absolutely perfect. Consistency like this is rare, and it’s the reason I always look forward to coming back. I highly recommend making a stop here! ”

“ We stopped in here for a beachside lunch following our bike ride. The food was beyond what we expected for a lunchtime beachside bar! The service was stellar and views are the best in town. As a treat following our meal, the owner offered us two special desserts on the house and they were outstanding! The chef gave us lovely information about the sustainability of the organic ingredients that they use in their restaurant. Would highly recommend this restaurant and we will be back! ”

“ Excellent service and delicious food!!! Beach chairs (with umbrellas and complimentary beach towels) for rent on one of the most beautiful and easily accessible beaches in the island. Very friendly and efficient service was a breath of fresh air compared to other (similar) local establishments. Worth every penny, and I look forward to returning. ”
