Prima House Restaurant-Tavern is a family-run Cypriot taverna in Strovolos, Nicosia, that captures the spirit of the classic 1990s neighbourhood tavern. Regulars praise the grill: perfectly charred, juicy souvlaki, sieftalia, pastourma and halloumi, served with soft, fluffy pita, creamy tzatziki, golden fries and those beloved traditional potatoes. As soon as you sit, a plate of fresh vegetables arrives to start the meal.
The house specialty is antikristo, slow-grilled lamb typically available on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday and best pre-ordered so you don't miss out. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with music kept at just the right level and live music on select evenings such as Thursdays. Diners consistently note friendly, fast service, generous portions and reasonable, good-value prices.
Open for lunch and dinner from Monday to Saturday and closed on Sundays, it's an easygoing spot for a relaxed Friday night, a casual grilled-meat feast or a get-together with friends and family in an authentic Cypriot setting.
Order this: Antikristo (house specialty, pre-order; served Tue/Thu/Sat), Souvlaki, Sieftalia, Traditional potatoes, Halloumi, Pastourma, Pita with tzatziki and fries
