Odos Sotiros Tavern is a warm, family-run taverna in the village of Sotira in Cyprus's Famagusta district, where the owner's welcome is as memorable as the food. Guests come for hearty, authentic Cypriot cooking best experienced through the meze: a steady parade of fresh dishes, dips, Greek salad and specialities like slow-cooked pork shank. Portions are famously huge and diners repeatedly rank it among the best meals they've had in Cyprus.

Everything is described as local, clean and full of flavour, with attentive, friendly service led by a genuinely hospitable host. With a stellar 4.9 rating, it appeals to both locals and travellers seeking a real village-tavern experience and excellent value. Open for lunch and dinner Monday through Saturday (closed Sunday), it's an easy choice for a relaxed group meal or a memorable taste of traditional Cypriot cuisine. Come hungry, order the meze, and expect to leave thoroughly satisfied.
