Where to eat out in San Stefanos? / Re: Spoilt for choice 2013

The trouble with all these league tables is that different people have different likes and dislikes, and it's not really a simple playing field.
For example, Ozzie Oils is obviously very popular, but we didn't like the place or the food much when we went. That's our perception.
I think it also depends a lot upon what you choose. Some places are better at cooking a specific item than others.
The bottom line is that it's hard to get a really bad meal in the village. That's one of the joys. We also have to balance food over atmosphere.
I think we should just say to new visitors, "Go and eat!" That kind of exploration is what holidays are about. The standard of food in Agios Stefanos is very high. Not cordone bleu - just good cooking with fresh meat and vegetables. In general, I'd call it "adjusted Greek." It's Greek food slightly modified to cater for visitors from various northerly regions.
No holiday for us would be complete without mussels at Beachcombers, day-fresh fish at Nafsika, and a mad evening at Little Prince.
