Telendos sunset, Kalymnian cheese first
Aegean Tavern climbs above Massouri bay, putting Telendos in full view from its outer terrace. The kitchen treats local mizithra with tahini, thyme honey and fig jam as a composed course, then moves through spinach pies, whole fish and seafood pasta for climbers willing to swap beach grills for a slower dinner.
Book the outside row, especially Saturday, or arrive after 22:00 when the first sitting loosens. Prices run above nearby tavernas and the specials expand an already broad menu; choose one cheese plate, one pie and a fish after agreeing its weight.
What visitors say
Aegean Tavern holds 4.5 from about 995 Tripadvisor reviews and a 2025 Travelers' Choice award; local cheese and the terrace lead praise, while higher prices and occasional inconsistency recur in criticism.
