Info
Paloukos è un ristorante greco situato vicino al villaggio di Tavari, nell'entroterra di Lesbo, una zona nota per i suoi uliveti, l'architettura tradizionale in pietra e il ritmo tranquillo della vita isolana. Essendo un punto di ristoro locale lontano dai percorsi turistici costieri più affollati, offre ai visitatori un autentico assaggio della cucina lesbica, radicata nel ricco patrimonio culinario dell'isola. Gli ospiti possono aspettarsi il tipo di cucina casalinga greca che definisce la cultura della taverna a Lesbo: carni cotte a fuoco lento, verdure fresche di stagione, olio d'oliva spremuto localmente e piatti plasmati da generazioni di tradizione. L'isola è particolarmente rinomata per la produzione di ouzo e per il suo olio d'oliva eccezionale, entrambi spesso presenti in primo piano nell'esperienza enogastronomica locale in ristoranti come Paloukos. Per i viaggiatori che esplorano i villaggi e i paesaggi più tranquilli del centro di Lesbo, Paloukos rappresenta esattamente il tipo di scoperta che rende il deviare dalle strade principali qualcosa di prezioso: un luogo dove sedersi, mangiare bene e connettersi con il carattere autentico dell'isola, anziché con un'imitazione turistica.
Prima di partire
Cosa aspettarsi
Il menu segue il ritmo delle stagioni e la tradizione della taverna greca: carni cotte a fuoco lento, verdure fresche e olio d'oliva prodotto nelle campagne circostanti. Lontano dalla costa e dai percorsi turistici più frequentati, offre il tipo di pasto semplice e sincero che difficilmente si dimentica.
Periodo migliore
La tarda primavera e il primo autunno sono i periodi migliori, con temperature miti e poca affluenza.
Come arrivare
Da Mitilene si percorre la strada verso ovest, nell'entroterra dell'isola; il villaggio di Tavari si raggiunge in circa un'ora o un'ora e mezza di guida tra uliveti e borghi collinari.

Amazing food and traditional Greek atmosphere (by the sea). We had scorpina (grilled fish) which was amazing. From the appetizers it’s a must to try the fried aubergines, skoumpri, lakerda, koukia and chorta. Everything was delicious. If you want to have lunch there on a summer weekend, you should better call and make a reservation otherwise be willing to wait as this place is very popular among the locals and during the summer.

Very attentive waiter, fullfilled our wish to sit closer to the water and moved our table without hesitation. Also explained the dishes to us in a very patient way. The food was delicious, the fish excellent. Nice and calm atmosphere in this traditional fishing village. Very recommended! And most polite service I've seen on this island so far :)

The food was fresh and delicious, service was friendly and fast. We had grilled sardines (fresh and perfectly grilled), fava, fried calamari, Greek salad, lakerda, zucchini flowers, crab salad, all very delicious, 2 bottles of barbayanni ouzo and paid 60 euros. The portions were quite big. Real value for the money and one of the best Greek food we’ve had on this trip. There’s Greek music playing on the background and the volume is at a level which doesn’t disturb you but creates a nice atmosphere. Highly recommend it!

We tried this restaurant after so many positive reviews, however our experience was below average in compare to other restaurants we tried on the island. We ordered, zaziki, greek salat, fried calamari, fried shrimps and fried barbunia. Barbunia was above avarage. The other dishes were for us not so tasty. I have to say that you shall not higher your expectations depending on the high points restaurant has on google maps.
