An Urgent Apology

[Eggy]

Reading some of my previous posts I seem to give the impression that Arillas closes around the 17th October.

This is not the case!

Brouklis stay open until the end Oct.
Eftihia stay open until "There are no more customers" as does Thallasa, whose target is at least to end October.
Asking various other Tavernas and bars today tells me that:-
"Arillas will look after all it's October customers very well indeed"

So, shops, Tavernas, Car hire etc. - If you get a good late October deal then, my motto, is "GO FOR IT" ( Don't forget the Sea & beach never closes )
Apologies if I mislead anyone.

If Eftihia is the last restaurant before the Kaloudis i didnt know it was opened at all.  It always looked closed when we went past.  When we went for a meal nobody bothered about us so we just wandered off.    I always fancied a meal there as the setting looked lovely.

One year we had a last minit holiday and it was the very last week before they closed at the end of October.  We went to Samos and when we left the owner was leaving almost immediately to go back to his home in Canada.  I think most of the Greek Isles end their season then.

Eftihia's business has picked up very well this season and has been busier each time we've eaten there.
They did open late in the season owing to their unexpected bumper Olive crop and then, due to a family Illness, struggled through a very difficult 2 weeks.
But they bounced back and like many other Greek Tavernas, and even English eating houses, they don't get it 100% correct. However they do their very best to please.

That long walk up to the Taverna can be very daunting though, especially if you're the first 2 people in the evening who want to eat there.
( More especially if they are closed and you have to retreat with the same dignty )

We went into that restaurant and were completely ignored. We left eventually without being acknowledged by anybody. It is the only time I have felt really uncomfortable in Arillas and I would definitely never go in there again.

this place to me has always seemed lifeless. passed loads of times, never seen anyone there.

Not always lively, but enjoyed.

You Guys !!!! - And Gals !!!!
I only put an apology on because I was worried I gave the wrong impression as to Arillas end of season dates and we've got an Eftihia Taverna review.

We going there tonight to meet Mythos & Metaxa ( Matt & Clare ) so I'll let you know how things progress.
