Hi Dana,
All of the tavernas are reasonably priced but the best value meal we had was at the sea breeze on the sea front.They have three course set menu's for between 6 and 8 euros. there was a fish set menu, steak set menu, chicken set menu or a bbq set menu. The food was very good too. We had two three course adult meals, two kids meals,half a litre of wine2 or 3 beers and drinks for the kids all for 35 euros. As for car hire, we had a Hyundai atos from arilas travel for just 30 euros a day.If you feel a little more adventurous you could have a scooter for 12 euros a day. Hope this info helps.
