Ladokolla Stin Plagia.
Perched in the mountain village of Damoulianata above Lixouri, Ladokolla Stin Plagia is a masterclass in unpretentious, home-style Greek hospitality. Operated by twin brothers Christos and Spyros alongside their parents, the taverna functions more like a family dining room than a commercial enterprise. The menu is refreshingly fluid, changing daily based on what is fresh and seasonal; expect staples like slow-cooked meat pie and hand-skewered souvlaki served on parchment paper. While the food is deeply traditional, the real draw for many is the balcony, which offers some of the most expansive sunset views over the Ionian Sea and the Paliki peninsula. It serves as an ideal final stop after a day at nearby Petani Beach or the Kipouria Monastery, providing a quiet, rustic alternative to the busier coastal strips.
