Kalafatis Restaurant

We have been coming to Kefalonia for over 16 years and always come to Kalafatis on our first night to meet the family who have become firm friends. We will be arriving this week and nothing will change! Their soup has become tradition for us!  Forget that someone is outside enticing you in - you are in Greece and that is their custom - you will miss a lot if you pass by! The banter we have will Elias always makes our day.  Anne, Mike, Di and Ted 

Very pushy waiters practically forced us in this restaurant. Food Ok. Nothing more to say.

I had never actually been in this place beofre though I had walked passed it a
thousand times.

I agree with one of the other reviewers - the staff harass passers-by to get
them into the place whilst ignoring those who are already in!

What I had was OK but only OK. We foreigners were not being given proper
receipts which means the money is bypassing their books. . . something
which annoys me (as a taxpayer!).

All in all, a poor show!!! I will return to my habit of walking past it!

The service isn't that great, as the waitresses are constantly looking out for new customers at the expense of existing ones. However it is very relaxing sitting by the water's edge and gazing across the water. Recommended if you're not in a hurry.

The Red Snapper was excellent, the best fish we had on the island. The service was a little laid back (although they did have to cross a busy road to bring the food out!)but the food made up for it, we went there twice.
