What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Maglaras is a beloved family-run taverna renowned for its exceptional meats and authentic Greek cuisine, especially dishes cooked in their brick oven. Diners rave about the welcoming atmosphere and the delicious local tsipouro. While the main courses receive high praise, some have found the desserts to be a letdown, and service can be a challenge during peak times, with some guests reporting issues with seating availability despite having reservations.
"Great portions for the starter and salad (see photos). Main courses were chicken and tasty. Oven bread was great. Outdoors is well shaded mostly by natural shade from vegetation."

"It was my 3rd stop there the last 20 years.
It is a must stop any time i pass by. Unfortunately i don't live nearby.
What an excellent restaurant.
What to mention first ?
The food?
The service?
The atmosphere?
5 stars are not enough."

"Family run old school taverna that serves excellent meats. It has a massive garden with some playground area for kids. Really helpful if you need to occupy toddlers while you are trying to have a decent meal. Lastly, the local house tsipouro is just one of the best I had in Greece. I d wholeheartedly recommend this.l place. The only thing they need to improve is the desert. A cup of jelly with some cream. Not great."
