Baccus Grill

Has it re-opened? I read in someone's Kalamaki review, they had just got back and said they had eaten here.......?   I hope so, we missed Mario and the crew last year.

It had closed down when we were there in August.Shame - cos it was one of the best restaurants in kalamki. Loved the kleftiko!

been going to zante the last 10 years, never had a bad meal here mario and his staff are really friendly had the best meal ever this year  lamb kleftico flambe....... out of this world   went back a few days later and had it again beautiful..... 

We came here once on our holiday, The food was very nice and so were the waiters (especially with my fussy brother haha, i felt sorry for the waiter who served us)

I think he really looked like him!!

Always go and eat  at baccus the kleftico is the best in kalamaki always a nice meal and good company will be back in september Nice to see the baby is doing well see you soon mario

Hello Marios I hope you and Olfa are well, Martin has just arrived back today and would like to pass on to you and your staff how much he and Carol enjoyed the food and hospitality they received at your restaurant. They have said the food was always excellent and recommend the Vakhos Restaurant to all all visit and that they will be welcomed with traditional Greek Fayre cooked to perfectrion.

Hi marios and olfa, just reading the comments and cant beleive that anyone has had a bad meal at their restaurant as i seem to recall 13th of june as i eat here every night nearly as the food is wonderful, a couple had a meal and wine and ate and drank every bit then complained about it much to the upset of marios and his staff,if you dont like the food or wine then you would leave it not eat and drink every bit,Ive been to kalamaki for years now and it took me this year to realize how nasty some english people are so much so sometimes i feel ashamed to be english,Ive had lots of meals here and they have been fantastic,Hope you are all keeping well,see you all in may bye love jane

Well what can i say about this resturant other than its fantastic... Mario and his wife run it really well... Noticed his wife can speak more english than last year. anyway the cook Linda is a great person even tho she doesnt talk much english (gonna miss you loads Mama  Nothing much more i can say oter than you must go there its fantasic even tho they can be slow wen busy but its worth it!! trust me!!

This restaurant is a"must" to visit.  The food is superb, Lamb Kleftico is my favourite, so that is always first on my list!  This time I tried the Kalamaki kebabs and they were delicious, I recommend you give them a try, and I think Mario's garlic bread is the best I have tasted. My husband and myself have visited Kalamaki four times now and the main highlight of our visit is always to go to this resturaunt to see Marios, Olfa and Linda. They are such genuine warm people and have become very close to our hearts.  Everyone is made to feel really welcome and nothing is too much trouble for this husband and wife team. The greeting that Marios makes to all his cutomers at the entrance is "come in, you are welcome" and he really means just that!  He really is a very cordial host! we love you the Vakhos team!

  we allways have great food at this very freindly restaurant, keep up the good hard work you all do.

Glad we ate at this restaurant because the food was delicious and the staff were so friendly.. lovely with my 4 year old sister! !!

I cannot understand how this restaurant has only been rated 4/10 !  The rating system does not seem to change when you have submitted your comments. Anyway, I would give it 10 out of 10.

We have been to Kalamaki two years running and we are going to return this August 2006. Virtually every night that we ate out we took the walk from the Athina apartments along to Bakkus Grill. It is well worth the walk as we found the food to be very good and always freshly cooked for you. Hence the occasional long wait to get your meal. I would rather wait longer for my meal than to be served food that has been re-heated in a microwave oven, which we have personally seen on visiting other restaurants. Mario and his wife Olfa and the cook Linda are wonderful people, nothing is too much trouble for them. Looking forward to our visit in 2 weeks time.

This traditional Greek Restaurant was really good, very good service good food, always served with a smile. Marios very polite and friendly, with a most gracious personal welcome to all.

We stayed at Kalamaki July 29- 2006 for one week, and ate at Vakhos (Baccus ) restaurant 5 nights would recommend you visit this lovely taverna at least once to try for yourself.

We were in Kalamaki for a week from 21-28 May.  We ate Greek food almost every night, working our way through all the recommended restuarants listed on this website.  My husband is a big fan of kleftico and I like moussaka.  Most everywhere we went in Kalamaki the moussaka was a disappointment.  It always seemed to be bland, stodgy and reheated.  I had given up on it until we ate in Bacchus. 

We ate in Bacchus on our second last night in Kalamaki. It wasn't on my original list of recommendations, but it was across the road from our hotel, so we thought we would give it a go as we weren't in the mood for wandering far that night.  John had the kleftico which he thought was gorgeous and I had a pizza for a change, which was huge and had loads of toppings.  We were so impressed that we went back there the following night for our last meal of the holiday.  Marios assured me that they had the best moussaka in Kalamaki, and this time I was not disappointed.  It was served in its own individual baking dish and was really fresh and tasty.  That night John tried the beef stifado and it was absolutely delicious.  I asked for the recipe, so I will have a go at making it at home.

The restaurant really had the feel of a traditional family run Greek taverna, which I thought was rare enough in Kalamaki.  Marios was very friendly and taught us some phrases in Greek, so we returned the compliment by teaching him some phrases in Irish!

has anybody out there got mario`s e-mail adress?we`re going back to zante in may and need to warn him to get plenty of sambuka in stock.cheers.
