Tucked along the bustling Ledra Street in the heart of Nicosia, To Anamma Traditional Restaurant serves up authentic Cypriot cooking in a setting that surprises many first-time visitors. Beyond its modest street frontage lies a charming inner garden courtyard, where potted plants suspended above the tables create a warm, atmospheric spot for lunch or dinner. The kitchen is known for hearty, generous portions — the shareable Cyprus platters are a favourite, easily enough to keep a table full for hours, and the lamb earns particular praise from diners.

Prices are reasonable and many guests receive a complimentary dessert to round off the meal. On many evenings a live musician performs, filling the space with a lively, friendly buzz that adds to the traditional feel. Open daily from noon until 11pm, it welcomes tourists and locals alike, groups, families and those celebrating special occasions.

With its blend of tasty local food, kind service and a genuinely lovely garden atmosphere, To Anamma offers a memorable taste of Cyprus right in the walled city centre.
