Title: Restaurants.
Post by: NickBoardman on May 12, 2012, 04:50:48 PM
Hi everyone, my partner and I are heading back to Arillas after 5 years. Can any one recommend restaurants and give us an idea of price ranges. Many Thanks

21st of May can't come quick enough!

As you will have noticed everyone has their favourites. Try as many as you can and pick yours. You can't go too far wrong.

There are so many it is impossible to try them all in a two week stay! Like Pete says, we all have our favourites - some of mine are reviewed on TripAdvisor. In truth, over the years I have eaten in them all, and never been disappointed.

Prices are good, for example the specials in Thalassa are usually 7-9 euros, and that represents fabulous value for money. A fish meal for two at Vavilas with carafe of wine can be less than 20 euros.

The one thing I really like about Arillas that no one has anything bad to say about anywhere. Hope it keeps that uniqueness. We will definitely try as a few while we are there. Our son will love being allowed to eat with his fingers to!

We have never had a bad meal. Try any place they are all good. Just enjoy.

You will also find everywhere child friendly too, and eating with your hands is possitively encouraged.  Lamb chops.... mmmm

We have our favourites but we have yet to eat somewhere in Arillas and then regret it! If you get the chance, try the spit roast lamb at Tria Adelphia on Sunday nights - just pop in and book in advance as it gets very busy on Sundays, though their food is good any night! So many excellent places to choose from whilst you watch the beautiful sunsets across the sea and don't neglect the places that aren't on the seafront - you may need quite a few weeks to sample all the delights! Have a great holiday.

Did you not know that you will have no alternative, once you have tasted the Arillas effect you will be hooked, the magnet will do its work and the pull of Arillas will be out of your control, the inevitable will take place and before you know it Arillas will be HOME.

before you know it Arillas will be HOME

The Mediterranean life style yes please,the hospitality etc. I have also had great holidays in Tunisia, France, Austria and Malta yet Arillas has already drawn me back. In my mind and heart I am there already and what a home it would make.

Hi,

The restaurants are probably much the same (and just as good)as when you were there 5 years ago. Kostas, Thallassa, Portofino, Horizon, Brouklis, Graziella, Marina, I could go on & on. Wherever you eat, you will have a great meal.

Am so glad to hear that all the old restaurants are still there! We missed last year so can't wait to be back on 27 July!!
Echo sentiments of all other posts - not a bad meal ever had anywhere, but top of the pile is always Stamna and Grandma's Lamb at Portofino!!

The only complaint I have is that there are more nice places to eat than there are evenings out!

We will be back next year to go to Captains, Amourada, Gravia & Mirage.
