The plate wall earns its seafood
Piato occupies a backstreet room near Hydra port, its walls covered with signed ceramic plates instead of nautical décor. Whole grilled squid, seafood meze, swordfish, lamb chops and kebab give mixed groups a broader choice than a strict fish house.
Ask for the day's seafood before defaulting to the long menu, then share the ouzo platter and one grilled main. Tables fill after ferries unload, so book dinner or arrive for lunch; large portions make the pasta-plus-meze combination excessive for one person.
What visitors say
Piato rates 4.4 from about 425 Tripadvisor reviews; whole squid, seafood meze, lamb, portions and attentive service recur across a substantial review base.
