Raphael's Restaurant

Raphael's Restaurant serves wonderful authentic Cypriot cuisine, as well as other Mediterranean and international dishes, taking advantage of the proximity to the sea and the island's prolific fishing industry.

Dining

The delicious Cypriot cuisine lies at the heart of the island's culture. The Cypriot meze is a banquet fit for a king with about twenty different traditional dishes. Meze is often the dish of choice for local Cypriots, ordering them for feasts, celebrations, anniversaries and other joyous occasions. It starts light with salads, dips, olives and fresh bread. Then you start to work your way up with snails, octopus in red wine, pickled capers and greens, followed by grilled halloumi (Greek cheese made from sheep and goat’s milk), smoked pork, fish, keftedes (meatballs), sheftalia and traditional Greek sausages. Then come the kebabs, chicken and lamb chops.
