Eliya Souvlaki is a small, welcoming traditional grill house set in the heart of Larnaca, right across from the historic Church of Saint Lazarus. It has quickly become a local favourite and a hit with visitors, earning a 4.8 rating across more than 240 Google reviews. The kitchen focuses on classic Cypriot souvlaki and charcoal-grilled meats: guests rave about the mixed pork kebab, the sheftalia and loukaniko sausages, and the well-priced meze for two.
Vegetarians are looked after too, with halloumi, fresh Greek salad and warm pitta bread. Pair your meal with a cold Keo, the traditional Cypriot beer. Diners consistently praise the fast, attentive service, the fresh and hot dishes, and the neat, cosy atmosphere with the illuminated church as a backdrop.
Easy to find in the city centre, Eliya is open for dinner from Wednesday to Saturday and for a relaxed lunch onward on Sundays. If you want authentic Cypriot flavours, friendly hospitality and great value, this compact taverna is well worth seeking out.
