Fytos Grill House

Tucked into the hillside village of Kathikas in the Paphos district, Fytos Grill House is a much-loved traditional Cypriot tavern where hearty grilled food meets genuine village hospitality. This is an unpretentious, authentic spot rather than a fancy restaurant, and regulars rate it among the best local grills in the area. The kitchen turns out freshly prepared, generous plates: a wide-ranging meze that easily satisfies two, alongside classics such as lamb tavas, chicken kebab, mixed grill and lamb chops, often accompanied by complimentary Greek salad, pitta, houmous and tzatziki.

Portions are large and prices are fair, making it excellent value for a relaxed lunch or dinner. Diners consistently praise the great views over the surrounding mountains and the ample free parking right in front. With a 4.7 rating from more than 500 reviews, it draws both locals and visitors seeking a true taste of Cypriot cuisine.

Open Tuesday to Saturday from 11:00 to 23:00 and Sunday until 16:00 (closed Mondays), it is an ideal stop for groups and families wanting an honest, satisfying village feast.
