The intimate setting with only ten tables ensures a personalized dining experience where every dish is crafted with care and artistry.
Starters
Begin your culinary journey with delicate Mussel Fritters served alongside refreshing tzatziki sauce — a crispy, savory introduction to the sea. For a lighter option, the Albacore Carpaccio offers thinly sliced fresh tuna drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice, perfectly balanced with just the right hint of salt and pepper to awaken your palate.
Mains
For main courses, Taverna Kerkira offers inspired dishes that highlight the freshest catches and Mediterranean ingredients. The Sweet and Sour Sea Bass Fillet showcases tender fish with a tangy tomato and onion glaze that perfectly balances sugar and vinegar for a harmonious flavor profile.
Pasta lovers will delight in the Calamarata with Mussels and Zucchini Flowers, featuring perfectly cooked calamarata pasta tossed with fresh mussels, delicate zucchini blossoms, garlic, and a splash of white wine, finished with parsley for a wonderfully aromatic dish.
Vegetarian options are well represented by the Feta 'Saganaki' baked with tomato and onion, where creamy feta is melded with olive oil and oregano, then baked to golden perfection — a comforting dish that captures the essence of Mediterranean home cooking.
