The best food I've tried in Platanias! A real family restaurant, the staff is very friendly, they care of each client. We were here for 3 dinners in a raw, ordered different dishes and all of them were very delicious. Separately, I'd like to emphasize the serving of the dishes: really restaurant serving, even for the plain of them. The prices aren't high. Highly recommend this place!
I loved the food and the atmosphere. The pasta was delicious, and the shrimp was fresh. The staff were friendly, and the place had a cozy vibe,Highly recommended.
This is the best restaurant in Platanias and Agia Marina. It’s a family place, as many places in Greece are, and all of the staff member are relatives. The service is just the best, and very fast. I was there 5 times, and approximate waiting of a meal was around 10 min, giving that the restaurant was always full. The portions are large, especially salads. They are delicious, I will definitely recommend Crazy Salad, Salad of Passion and Avocado Salad. Also, if the owner gives you recommendations, just trust him, he knows his stuff. This place is also very affordable. The owner always comes to check if you like food or not, and in general a very cool man, that likes to chat with everyone, and creates this welcoming experience. So I really recommend to visit this place if you will be in Platanias.
Very nice food and service.. actually it a great service. We had recommended for that restaurant from the hotel and it was warthogs to come here. Grate lam chops, grate fish Dorada and amazing salads.Ask for mix starters.. it’s not in the menu but they will do that.Definitely we come back
Really tasty food with really good prices. Portions were big and tasty.
Excellent wooden oven baked feta, tasty fresh tsatsiki and home made bread with garlic butter and olive paste. Great food, great service
Barba Thomas is a very special place.Small, but very cosy.Super good food to attractive prices, compared with rest of platanias.Friendly smiling staff makes you feel very welcome everytime.I strongly recommend Barba Thomas
First, Adonis, our taxi driver, recommended this place and made a late reservation by phone for us as we came in late from Santorini. We even got there even later after checking in at the hotel. Leonidas greeted us at the door with open arms, setting the tone as a family experience in a traditional setting. We ordered light cause it was late Lamb, chicken, biftecki(hamburger patty), sausages, and zucchini, 5 star meal at 1 star prices. This is what a family restaurant is supposed to be In Greece, being adopted as family and treated as such. So we decided a second visit and a 2 hour sitting with an abundance of wine , 2 orders of Seafood platter for 4 of us, we could barely finish but kept trying as this was absolutely delicious. Thumbs waaaayyyy up to Leonidas and his Family for a Wonderful experience.Barba Thomas 20 out of 5, Heres to our New found family and friends Yia Mas
