Dinner behind a medieval doorway
Marco Polo Cafe hides a walled garden behind its guesthouse on Agiou Fanouriou, with tiled floors, fruit trees and lanterns above widely spaced tables. Yiannis Pastrikos cooks Mediterranean food with Greek, Italian and eastern references for diners who value a quiet courtyard over an Old Town sales pitch.
Dinner runs as an à la carte sequence and popular garden tables disappear well ahead in summer. Reserve directly, ask about the day's fish and portion size, and compare specials with the printed prices; most reviews praise the cooking, though some recent diners think the setting now carries too much of the bill.
What visitors say
Tripadvisor rates Marco Polo Cafe 4.6 from about 1,090 reviews with Travelers' Choice 2025; recent feedback praises the garden but sometimes questions portions, service and value.
