Perched on a cliff above Coral Bay in Peyia, Porto Antico is a family-run restaurant set inside a beautifully restored old carob warehouse, blending historic stone-and-timber character with a clean, modern interior. The extensive outdoor terrace overlooks the cove and the sea, while the daily menu spans fresh fish, quality steaks, pastas, salads and desserts, all prepared in the kitchen. Diners praise the halibut, ceviche, hand-cut chips, tender steaks and elegant, Michelin-style plating, plus a well-regarded wine list and standout cocktails such as the frozen passion fruit daiquiri.
Service is warm, attentive and unhurried, with staff pacing courses to your appetite. Rated 4.8 across nearly 1,900 Google reviews, it is one of the area's most celebrated addresses. Prices sit above the local average, but guests consistently feel the quality of food, setting and service justifies the cost.
Reservations are not taken, though the large room and terrace usually seat walk-ins. Open daily except Thursday, 12:00–23:00 — ideal for a special treat, celebration or a relaxed seaside evening.
