Nammos
Nammos was quite the party. We reserved lounge chairs here and had a table for lunch, which turned into a huge party. All the food was super fresh, with lots of sushi and crudo. We were so caught up in the swimming and dining that we did not get to walk around the shops in this area. They have every designer that you could possibly think of with a beautiful pop up in this “Nammos Village”. After spending the day at this location in Mykonos, it made us want to visit the other locations around the world - next stop Dubai! This is definitely the place for the party people in your travel group.
Cavo Tagoo Poolside
We sat by the pool and ate lunch a couple of times at our hotel throughout our stay. They deliver the food to you right on the center console of the daybeds at the pool. Pictured here is the fried chicken sandwich with crispy potatoes and a fruit plate for lunch. My brother said this was the “best thing he’s ever tasted”. We were obsessed with this hotel and cannot say enough about the service and how friendly the staff was.
Principote
This place was all around unreal- breathtaking views, clear ocean, and beautiful furniture/decor. Even better than all of this was probably the food because everything we ordered was tasteful, vibrant, and fresh. Special shout out to the truffle potatoes with goat cheese and the spinach pasta with pesto. There is nothing that could make this spot better - maybe besides lowering the prices..but we can't say enough about it! Needless to say, it should be at the top of your list if you find yourself in Mykonos anytime soon.
Scorpios
This is definitely the vibiest place we've ever been to. We had a table for the sunset dj set, and then a late dinner reservation in the dining area at 9:30. Before heading over to the sunset table, we also munched on a few apps while we waited. You could really hang out here all day with cabanas on the beach, showers and bathrooms, and all the fun happenings at night. My favorite part of my meal was the tableside fresh fish tacos. I also loved the feta and lentil salad side we got as well. This is definitely more of a boho/chill vibe in comparison to some of the other beach clubs in Greece. I hope to come back and spend an entire day here because I feel like the day time would actually be super relaxing. Unlike other beach clubs in Mykonos, I would say the sunset time is way more serene than a party. The songs here are more beats with african instruments layered in, not songs that you would be able to sing to. I think it is definitely a high class spot with amazing service. Not to mention, there is also amazing people watching! We absolutely loved it.
Spilia
As seen on Instagram, this is probably one of the more recognizable restaurants in Mykonos. It is settled on the inside of a cliff, and your table sits right next to the waves crashing into the rocks. Not only is it a beautiful view, it is also great fresh food. This is also the place with the octopus hanging on what looks like a laundry clothes line- drying out. We came here for a calm dinner, although it is also a place that puts on a party lunch. A warning that I would give is it is a little trick to get to - with lots of stairs up and down to finally get to the restaurant - so make sure your party can handle the terrain before booking!
Catari
This was our one Italian dinner night in Greece- which was a great break from downing dips and pita bread every chance we could get. This was located in the downtown area of Mykonos on one of the side streets, and the whole restaurant was set outside. The most spectacular part of this experience was actually the owner of the restaurant who took a liking to us. He grew up in Rome, Italy and brought his restaurant to Mykonos- and was the sweetest man ever who lit up the room. This is definitely a great spot for a casual and lowkey meal to break up all the partying during your stay.
Nikos Taverna
This was the first dinner spot we went to before a night out in Mykonos town. It is super casual and super traditional. All of the seating is outside of the restaurant on the cobblestone. Since we knew this was an authentic spot, we made sure to order the classics such as a seafood rice dish, chicken and steak kabobs, and a greek salad of course. This seems like a great family spot to come to if you have kids with you as well!
