Independent local picks with useful details, thoughtful context and recently checked information.
Babis sets its outer tables against the sea on Aegina Town's coastal road, close to the centre but exposed to passing traffic. Sea bass bianco, octopus carpaccio, red mullet, wine-and-garlic mussels and prawn orzo move the kitchen beyond a plain fish grill.
Dromaki lines the water on Akti Toti Hatzi, with outdoor tables close enough to catch spray when the wind rises. The kitchen covers grilled fish, shrimp pasta, calamari, taramasalata and moussaka, while the west-facing row draws groups before sunset.
Kriton Gefsis leaves Aegina's harbour traffic for a pedestrian lane off Ireoti, setting indoor and outdoor tables around a Cretan menu. Split-pea fritters, cheese pies, vine leaves, calamari and pistachio ice cream sit beside daily fish and a broad Greek wine list.
