The best restaurants in Cyprus

The best restaurants in Cyprus

We recommend you an amazing dining experience at the best restaurants in Cyprus!

One of the primary needs of a human is food for survival. Each country has its own gastronomic tastes. Other kitchens are more spicy, more strange, more simple and more complex. Each one, however, with its own uniqueness and quality. The restaurants of Cyprus are here to cover every taste from the most traditional tastes to the most exotic.


We looked for and found the most delicious restaurants all over Cyprus and we are here to introduce them to you one by one.

The first restaurants appeared in the 11th century in China and about the same time in the Islamic world. In Europe, the first restaurants were created in the 18th century and the restaurants then were in the form of inns and taverns for travelers and not for residents of the area.

Today, restaurants are divided into several categories, including taverns, fast food etc. While kitchens around the world vary according to their country of origin.

In Cyprus, apart from the traditional taverns with Cypriot dishes, fish restaurants and fast foods, you will also find restaurants of foreign origin such as Arabic cuisine, Armenian cuisine, French cuisine, Greek cuisine, Indian cuisine, Italian cuisine, Chinese cuisine, Mexican cuisine etc. 

The following restaurants are known to us and we highly recommend them. We are sure you will enjoy their delicious food to the fullest. However, if you are not satisfied please let us know. Email us here, we want to know about it.
