Nice place but up there, the heights and portions are quite small. You can also say gourmet ok. One just has to inform them about the laws on rugs, and charges for water, bread, etc. Obviously we will not be hungry for the 4.5 euros, just those next time may not be so lucky and cost them a thousand.

Nice neo gourmet Greek food the experience was ruined by loud and indiscreet local families with kids that thought this as a playground and the indifference of the staff to ask them to keep their children silent , for the sake of other customers.. there were at least 20 tables full that wanted a pleseant and peaceful evening. A restaurant is not only about the food , but the total experience especially when it is so expensive and wants to be called one of the best in Cyclades islands

Beautiful restaurant in a unique location with Aegean aroma and amazing cuisine .....
The variety of salads does not let you monotonize, with the first and best of the same name, "Allou Gyalou", with fresh, chopped arugula, crispy rusks, tomato, spring onion and local sour cheese. However, the salad with Alonissos tuna and the bullets with anchovy sauce are also very good. As an appetizer, be sure to try the hummus with fluffy pita, the parsley salad, the tarama mousse with basil eggs and the potatoes with Syrian fennel sausage
Service to an amazing degree ...
Sunset without limits

Seafood risotto poisoning

Seafood risotto poisoning

The service was very good.
The view is very beautiful on the wave.
Prices were overrated.
However, the worst thing happened when I came home and felt intense stomach aches! Note that I had not eaten more than standard cereal bars and what I came up with was clearly the risotto we ate. I regret that I make negative criticism but felt necessary since many families visiting the restaurant and the experience is really very bad

Horrible service. We made a reservation but they couldn't find it. Even though the place was not full it was like they forgot that we existed. The food took for ever and the intervals when they brought the plates were really long. The food was extremely heavy however the octopus and the pasta with salmon were really good.

Some of the best food in the island! It was a group of 4 where we shared the dishes and we found all the dishes that we ordered to be very tasty. We all got seafood and greens.

I will definitely visit here again next time I visit!

Very nice dishes, carefully prepared combinations, not sophisticated. Professional in everything, and in the treat. Classics for gourmet cuisine small quantities expensive prices. Of course NOT for a family that wants to be full.

Today for the first time in Syros they suggested the "best tavern in Kini. One star is too much .....
And I appreciate it just because the waitress was sweet and smiling.

Mostly beyond the salad that is okay to make a village wrong ..
The potatoes were burnt. But the top was the squid, the fresh pancakes ..
Tough, unsalted, tasteless ..... And small but without quality what to do and quantity ..
Prices are very high ..
I definitely don't recommend it ...

Beautiful and stylish restaurant with an island character right on the beach. Its flavors are nice with a good variety on the list. The prices are somewhat pricked as you would expect from a restaurant of this level. But you also find normal choices. The burgers of the wonderful and the large portions! The service is a joyful and dull dessert for the end. Difficult to sit down at the table you want without reservation ... at least in a peak season. One of the must-dos of the visit to Syros!

Expensive shop not very large portions but very good quality food.
The staff is welcoming and happy (which is a big plus)
But pay attention to the very high prices, so far the most expensive store in Syros.

Restaurant name and thing!

Restaurant name and thing!
The restaurant is located in the heart of the picturesque Kini with the beautiful sunset literally by the sea! Its prices may seem a bit stingy for an average family but really the quantities of the dishes as well as their flavors are "Other Glass" and are worth the last euro. All seafood and fish are very fresh, recommended spaghetti dishes with cuttlefish ink and tuna, grilled sardines! The owners as well as the staff enslave you with their behavior!

Very average, totally over-rated. The view is beautiful and the terrasse is nice but this is a restaurant so for the price we expected much better food. The fried squid was over cooked and cut in very large slices. The fried anchovies were dire. We did not have a chance to look at deserts because they brought chocolate ice cream on the house which would have been nice if the ice had been good but it was really cheap ice cream covered with industrial chocolate sauce which tasted worst than a McDonald s sundae.
There are other restaurants either next door or a bit further along the beach which look much better even if they are more simple.

(FRA) Nice, but nothing special except the setting (beautiful for a sunset and Kini is very pretty).

The dishes are good and fresh, without being famous in addition to being a bit expensive for what it is (homemade burger = 16 and filet of grouper with spinach fennel sauce = 24 ). 250mL pitchers of wine at 2.5 (very correct).

Staff very friendly, but too many bad surprises: the server serves two glasses of water from a bottle without asking us if we wanted and same number with two parts of orange cake (they were very good that said ) served without being asked. At no time were we told that it would end up on the bill. I was expecting it for the bottle of water but I really thought that the cakes would be offered, well no ...

Finally, I had an addition to 58,10 , I give 60 , I have never made change. Ok I was going to leave a tip, the chef did not give me the choice ...

To flee if you do not like to do a little pigeon like a tourist. If as for me you think it's part of the game, give a chance to this restaurant.

The name really characterizes the store, it came from another universe. Tragically very expensive (12 euros per salad), while at the same time they do not offer the classic options such as rustic or dakos. Big foul also that you do not have directories, but only qr code. Also, our waiters often ignored us.

One of the best restaurants I have ever eaten! Apart from the advantage of being located on the beach with one of the most beautiful sunsets, the shop is impeccable. The service is for a seminar basically. The dishes we got very well. The pepper jam ... pleasure. I expected it to be much more expensive but the truth is that it has dishes for all budgets. From chicken with rocket sauce (brain) 10 to lobster, sea urchin etc which are reasonably more expensive. I wish one day I could pick it up in my pocket and try the most expensive dishes. One of the 3 best restaurants I have ever eaten. Like icing on the cake, I learned that they also have ONO in Agathopes. Perfect in every way and that!

A beautiful restaurant, in a beautiful spot, in a beautiful island.
It has all what one is expecting for an original Greek experience.
Right by the sea side, one can enjoy a Mediterranean / Greek cuisine, traditional and yet, at the same time, original (where else can you enjoy an urchins salad?)
It is a joy to the taste buds but also to the eyes: To have dinner there and watch the sun go down, in the company of the well fed local kitties, who also frequent the place.
Best option in the island!

Have been coming here multiple times a year since it opened 10-15 years ago. The staff are wonderful and welcoming even in these odd times that we live in. The menu is the same each year and the quality of the food is excellent. The move away from taverna food in Greece is, in my opinion, very welcome, and Allou does this very well indeed. The flavours have international influences, but the dishes remain very Greek. Will continue going as long as I visit Syros (this year was my 43rd year there)

The prices are a bit high but I think you know it when you choose to sit in this store. But the food justifies you 100%. Whatever you eat will be unforgettable! The view is incredible since the restaurant is on the sea!

An excellent Cycladic atmosphere restaurant. Fresh and high-quality menu that leave no doubts behind. You may think the prices are a little bit high but they worth every penny. Great location and of course the staff couldn t be more friendly.

The best restaurant in kini, but we are in the gastro not in the traditional tavern, we tasted the fried zucchini sticks (very good and original), the grilled octopus (excellent) and a grilled sea bream chosen on the stall, the fish was a marvel served with steamed vegetables, and cut into the room (rare)
The fish is charged 68 / kg, which obviously plummets the bill, however the prices are correct for the other dishes, it is a restaurant to have fun and we had a great dinner, especially as the setting is beautiful.
