Romeo

Though under siege by tourists, many locals gladly frequent the Romeo, as there is a good deal that's authentic within its walls (themselves some 500 years old). Beside the predictable taverna fare are the many local dishes on offer -- including vegetarian options. Two house specialties are the mixed fish grill and the stuffed souvlaki. For the grill, you select your own fish from a generous array of fresh deep-sea options -- the tender grilled octopus is especially good. The finely cut grilled souvlaki stuffed with melted cheese and tomatoes is a regional dish from the north end of the island. The reasonably priced dry house wines go nicely with each entree. Set back in a quiet enclave, just off and out of the crush of Sokratous, Romeo offers both courtyard and roof-garden seating, as well as tasteful live traditional Greek music and song.
