What can I say about this place! Only that this is such a great place to eat. Amazing selection of dishes, big portions and reasonable prices (see menu). The owner "Yiannis" is so friendly and hospitable and so are the staff. Some nights you will be lucky to get a table especially towards the end of the month when everyone gets paid. If you're in the area then I recommend you try this place... Sitting close to the road if you eat outside is cool... The amount of cars that drive past looking at you and what you're eating...lol

A little gem of a restaurant with friendly service by the family. Fresh meals prepared and served that you cannot match. A special home made desert from his mother's recipe book sealed a perfect meal

What a lovely authentic place, what an atmosphere! We went there on our last day in Cyprus, and we knew it would be the best end of our January holiday... Owners, chefs, and everybody else there treated us like a family in their own home. Chef knows how to season his dishes, sheftalia was the best one we tried so far in this country. Service? You can't ask for more... we love you so much for your kindeness. We came in busy Monday, but still been served like a big VIP's. Place is allocated about 10 minutes walk away from Lazaris church (town centre), but trust me, is worth it, and you go through lovely narrow local streets. Thank you Angela and Yiannis, it was a biggest pleasure to meet you!!! We had calamaries, mixed chicken dish, Cyprus coffes, and a.delicious dessert. Then we have been gifted two shots of local specialty. All the best for you Guys!!! Polish Couple :)

Excellent place to eat. Highly recommend it when in Larnaca. Especially when you make the trip from Australia. Always look forward to eating at Yiannis. Lots of options with food including souvla.
