Topika Meze Bar is a cosy, city-centre restaurant in the heart of Nicosia, dedicated to the amazing food and great wines of Cyprus and the wider Eastern Mediterranean. The concept is creative food to share: seasonal small plates that reimagine traditional flavours with a modern touch, built around ingredients from local producers. Diners praise the intense, well-balanced flavours, generous portions and consistently friendly, attentive service in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Standout dishes highlighted by guests include Cypriot focaccia with muhammara dip, green fava with split peas, the "cauliflower two textures," seabass carpaccio, seafood pasta, ceviche and Cypriot rib-eye and steak. There are plenty of vegan and vegetarian options alongside meat and seafood plates, plus a selective wine list and distinctive cocktails inspired by island flavours. Open for dinner Tuesday through Saturday and running late on weekends, Topika is well suited to groups, first dates and celebrations.

Reservations are recommended, especially at weekends. It's a genuine local favourite for anyone wanting Cypriot meze culture presented in a fresh, contemporary way.
