Ouzo takes the coastal road
Antonis sits south of central Mytilene in Taxiarches Kagiani, with outdoor tables facing the water and enough distance from the port crowds for a long ouzo lunch. Fish, octopus, shellfish and vegetable meze arrive in the slow sequence that the drink demands.
The restaurant pauses between 6:30 and 8:30pm every day. Drive or take a taxi, reserve a sea-facing table and ask the catch price before ordering; recent criticism calls some seafood ordinary for the cost, so build around meze and one fish rather than a full mixed spread.
What visitors say
Antonis rates 4.5 from about 424 Tripadvisor reviews and holds a Travelers' Choice award; fish, ouzo meze and the view lead support, though some diners question seafood value.
