Fish restaurant Nick the Fisherman Kos
Nick the Fisherman in Kos is an institution and you will surely return at least a second time before leaving this island, I assure you.
In business for a long time, Nick the Fisherman according to some inhabitants of the island is one of the oldest taverns where the art of cooking has been handed down from father to son with a continuous evolution in the preparation of the dishes that make it definitely one of the best on the island of Kos.
Lary the owner, a real good giant, with his sympathy and knowledge of the raw material will give you a sincere but at the same time refined cuisine with new flavors but also typical of Greece and especially of the Dodecanese area.
The menu every day always has some variation determined by the type of fish caught in the night that is proposed either in the traditional way, or to the chef's inspiration. From tasty appetizers such as scallops au gratin with a sauce in oil and lemon where the shoe is a must and will make you consume the bread basket instantly enough to immediately request another, to mussels or saganaki prawns cooked in the sauce of tomato with crumbled feta cheese the classic Greek cheese which, melting creates this irresistible creamy sauce where even in this case you will finish the bread, marinated mackerel, shrimp rolls with a philadelphia-like cheese, and still the succulent sea urchins raw with oil and lemon, then move on to the fried squid stuffed with local cheeses and the various fish cooked on the grill, this is a taste of what you will find in the tavern.
In short, whoever has more, a blaze of marine delicacies to make you forget any thought, all accompanied by a good iced wine or by the classic liqueur so dear to the Greeks when they eat fish Tzipouro (attention is a fort as a drink, remember to always dilute it with water and ice).
The service and Lary are always very present but never intrusive, fast and available to almost any request. The value for money is excellent but the fundamental thing is that all the fish served is always top quality and fresh. Another nice peculiarity of Nick the Fisherman is the presentation of the bill that arrives inside a boat and based on the size you will realize how much you have eaten.
We recommend it for dinner or lunch in the most absolute way, we are now Nick The Fisherman employees and one of the first things we do when we return to our beloved Kos Island is to go and enjoy one of its specialties.
We advise you in the high season to book especially for dinner.
