... or for the "restaurant" experience as opposed to the "taverna" experience - and please don't misunderstand, I love them both - Thalassa or Horizon.  I always feel as though I'm "going out for a meal" at either of these two places - and they are next door to each other on the sea front.  Fantastic, romantic, sunsets from both as well!

However, as Diane and Eric say(s) (!) you can't go wrong with any of them!!  Each restaurant/taverna has its own special quality.  We like to have our very first evening meal at Brouklis - a very authentic typical Greek/Corfiot taverna - if you arrive in time for your evening meal on the 18th, why not try that first?

billb, keep it close to your chest and surprise her. We all have our favourite foods - mine is prawns. Several people have adored Eftihia's prawns with extra garlic so far this season. Just superb. Graziella provide similar. Just as good. You're there when we are - say hello and we'll say it in person.

It is difficult to recommend a place to eat in Arillas, because good food is taken as read. Occasional disappointments, very few, but never had one myself having been 12? or moe separate times. And other forumers many more.

If it's your first time, simply relate, smile and talk to anyone you meet. No ceremonies, no doubts. Just feel part of a community which is made up of people looking for what you are. That's us.....

Hi billb,  Brouklis is our favourite for our first meal as well, but must
agree with Janis, choose one of the many on the sea front, for a birthday meal you won't be disappointed.
On a Saturday night visit Marina for the Greek dancing, not to be missed.

Hi, thanks for all your replies.  It all sounds fantastic and can't wait to get there.  We're staying at Christos Apartments.  Are we very far away from these restaurants?  Sorry but we haven't been able to find a map to show exactly how far away we are from the seafront.  Thank you

Hi Billb - there are a couple of maps on this website - click on "Map" on the left hand side and again on "interactive map" or "tourist map". I find the interactive to be better.
Christos apartments has a blue marker and is roughly (on the map) towards the left and about three quarters of the way up.
Christos apartments is about a ten minute walk down hill to the centre of Arillas, you have a lovely supermarket opposite (we always stop on our walks and buy an ice cream there!)
It is also about equal distance between Arillas and San Stefanos, so you have the best of both worlds!
A short distance away is the Gravia Bar which has fantastic views, and another couple of minutes' walk is our Nikos' new place - the Akrotiri Bar, aptly named because it is on the headland and offers absolutely superb panoramic views over both Arillas and San Stefanos.
Enjoy!

love them all, but think i agree with janis abouth the "dining" ........how about starting off with a cocktail in ammos, then wander along to horizon for a meal, finished off by another cocktail up on the sun deck.
now thats what i would like if it were my birthday!!!

The only bit we changed on our anniversary was the meal was at Thalassa. Important to us because that was where we were first welcomed to Arillas. Nothing wrong with Horizon, or Efi's or Brouklis, or Graziella, or.... any of them.

That would be perfect choice Ger, I agree. The Horizon definitely has the classy edge I reckon.
