Frommer's Review
If you didn't know any better -- or drank too much ouzo -- you'd think you were in Santorini. Perched on a bluff overlooking the bay, this family-owned restaurant has been famous hereabouts since 1959 for its great views and creative seafood dishes, such as the scamp Cervantes (scamp is a deepwater fish with white, flaky meat) and the Mediterranean-style grouper prepared with tomato and roasted eggplant. The menu also features charcoal-grilled steaks and, befitting the owner's Greek heritage, roast lamb served with moussaka, dolmades, tiropita, and spanakopita. In warm weather, opt for an outside table with a bay view.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
