About Us

“Good Greek food is not about sauces, intricate cooking methods or exotic ingredients. It is about keeping things simple, bringing out the best natural flavours from the harvest of the Mediterranean land and sea.” This is the philosophy of Pantellis Koutroukkis , Chef and co owner of Aphrodite Taverna.

Saying that Aphrodite Taverna has very good food is not everything one can say about this place. Step into the busy Aphrodite and be enveloped in the ever-welcoming greeting of Rossana, the chef’s wife and co-owner. This very warm and welcoming atmosphere make feels like you have just walked into your own family’s house. Decked out with gourds, brass lamps and hanging copper pots, this Cypriot Taverna is at once tasteful and inviting, and therein lies its charm.

Aphrodite’s extensive menu mostly covers the Greek-Cypriot culinary repertoire, along with a few international favourites. It has a great variety of food for vegetarians and for health conscious people. The fish is fresh and nicely prepared and for fish lovers the chef recommends fish meze, which is served with many different types of fish. But meat lovers should not be disappointed, because Aphrodite also offer fantastic meat meze which is just as great. Main courses range from Stifado , Klefitico and traditional grills, to quails and fillet steaks.

Aphodite Taverna is open Monday to Saturday from 12:00 to 23:45. Booking is not essential but high recommended. A copy of the menu can be sent to you by email and the contact details are available here in this website.
