This restaurant is excellently located if you like to get in the mix and absorb some of the local Cypriot culture. Governors Beach which is just a stones throw from the grassed "garden" with it's beautiful shady trees, is quite busy at the weekend during the summer months as everyone comes down from surrounding areas but this is part of the charm and it is fascinating watching people go about their business. When I wasn't on the beach I was relaxing under one of those shady trees on a very comfortable lounger with a good book and a long, cool, drink.
If it sounds very relaxing, well, that's because it was.
You can have a lovely Greek repas from a light lunch (my favourite was fish or calamari with a generously portioned feta salad) to a more extensive meze with a few bottles of good wine on an evening out with friends and/or family.
The staff are very friendly and go out of their way to make you feel welcome...but my favourites were the vietnamese girls who ran the kitchen and the "boss" Andreas meticulously ensuring that every aspect of his establishment was in order and bringing his own unique style and depth of experience to your visit here.
A memorable visit. :)))
