Summer in Lefkada means Basilico

A Greek restaurant where our family cooks for you, from late afternoon until late at night, with a view of the sea.

Basilico full of guests in the evening

Mediterranean cooking, a family table

In our kitchen you'll find mama Eleni, who has been delighting lovers of good food for over 30 years. She isn't alone: her sons Kostas and Thodoris look after the dining room, so you can enjoy the full Mediterranean experience in Basilico's welcoming summer setting.

Our heritage

Fresh Greek ingredients on the plate, traditional recipes and the aromas of Greek cooking. Our open space, the whole family's passion and our hospitality carry that heritage forward, and are why you'll want to come back.

We look forward to welcoming you!
