Angels Bar - (Bars in Kalamaki)

Shazza   (30 September 2003)         

Have just come back from a week in Kalamaki with my sister. We went into Angels 2 nights running and never went back again! We went in to have a relaxing drink after dinner, to chat, watch the world go by and enjoy the music. The music was the same both nights and every night after that when we walked past. We felt uncomfortable with one of the bar staff who came to sit with us both nights - never a problem as we both enjoy meeting new people - but he didn't seem to like anyone having an opinion different to him (in fact I don't think he ever really listened to anything either of us said, obviously loves the sound of his own voice) and he just hung around. There was hardly anyone in there at anytime when we went past. Having said that, the drinks were excellent, good choices and reasonably priced and the girl working behind the bar was nice. Maybe it's just because it's coming towards the end of the season that it was like this!?

This was definitely the best bar in Kalamaki. You are made to feel welcome by the staff, the music is good and is definitely not the same every night (like some of the other bars in Kalamaki!) and the drinks were reasonably priced. Great idea with those heaters! This place was always busy with people of different ages in there so it suits all. Would recommend this bar to anyone.

Absolutely disgusting - easily the worst meal out we had. The service was rubbish. Definitely don't have the beef in mushroom sauce - it's a piece of beef like you get in those frozen meals!! Even the food smells coming from that place every night made me feel ill.

Mermaids - (Restaurants in Kalamaki)

Shazza   (01 October 2003)         

Very overrated. Yes they have a great choice of food in there, but it was nowhere near as nice as everyone said it would be. Don't appreciate being watched eating by one of the waiters either who then decided to have a laugh about it with one of his mates (sorry - is there something abnormal about eating with my mouth closed and not stuffing food in then!). Waiter service in general was ok but don't think they are particulary friendly in there. Think this place is run by the same person who runs Angels - what more can I say!! He was the one who recommended this place to us.

Absolutely lovely. Went there on our first night and went back again on our last night. Waiter service excellent, food gorgeous. This is one of the best restaurants in Kalamaki, recommend this one to anyone. They also play Greek music in there, which is even better. When I go out for a meal in Greece I like to feel like I am there, in other words not have pop music on. Great atmosphere - well done to all the staff.

Parthenon Restaurant - (Restaurants in Kalamaki)

Shazza            

The food is absolutely amazing in this place. The service is brilliant too, and you are made to feel welcome in here. Definitely agree with the comment about the waiters - gorgeous!! Could not believe the size of the fruit salad - there is enough for two people in there and it's all fresh. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that you could not hear the music being played in here (I think it was Greek but not sure) all you could hear was the pop music coming from the ENGLISH bar next door. Anyone going to Kalamaki - definitely eat in here.

Cavo Doro Hotel - (Accommodation in Kalamaki)

Shazza            

Have just got back from a week in Kalamaki. These apartments were very nice. We stayed in the new block on the top floor. Only bad thing is it's not fun lugging your suitcases up all those flights of stairs! Evening receptionist very friendly and helpful, the morning/afternoon one could take a leaf out of her book. She didn't even bother to direct us to where our room was, and we luckily bumped into one of the cleaners who was very helpful and showed us there. Harry's bar is great - lovely food, great portions and excellent price. Well done for showing the Chelsea game as well! Cocktails are the best - 2 euros for a pint!! Harry and Sam - hope you catch up on your sleep soon! Will be back to see you next September, if only for 1 night!

Joker Bar - (Bars in Tsilivi)

Shazza            

What has happened to Joker bar? It was the best place to go for a laugh, drink and dance before. I have been to Tsilivi twice before and it was always the best place to go. Stayed in Kalamaki this time but made sure I went into Tsilivi for 1 night. Hopefully I just picked the wrong night to go because how the place has changed! They had karaoke on in there for a start - oh my God! Marios - what's up with you? You have always been so friendly before and I just about got hello out of you. Dimitri - lovely to see you again, you made Jokers the only reason worth going in for this time. Hope you will still be there next year - your kiss was on my lips for the rest of my holiday (am hoping for a proper one next year!) Great to see Costas back again. Will be back next September - hope Jokers is back to it's best again.

Magdalenas Bar - (Bars in Tsilivi)

Shazza            

Still as good as it was before - at least some places don't change! Great place for all ages to go, there are pool tables etc there, good music playing and as usual the drinks were brilliant. Nice friendly staff as well. Will be back next year.

Koukos - (Restaurants in Tsilivi)

Shazza            

The best restaurant in Tsilivi by far. Great food, waiter service and prices. It's nice that the waiters remember you from ages ago as well. This will be the first restaurant I visit next September without a doubt.

Angels Bar - (Bars in Kalamaki)

Shazza   (10 October 2003)         

Thanks Emily, I couldn't remember the name of the guy who just invited himself over to come and sit with me and my sister, but it was Nick. Obviously we are not the only ones he made feel uncomfortable then!

Angels Bar - (Bars in Kalamaki)

Shazza   (24 October 2003)         

Agreed!! This is a site for reviews, good and bad. I looked at this site before I went to Kalamaki and found it very useful. I wouldn't not go in a bar/restaurant if there were a few bad reviews, I always try things for myself to decide if I like it or not. I personally didn't like Angels, but other people do and that's fine. I'm sure that most other people are similar to myself who like to see all comments on here without having all the other slagging off/disagreements in between. Just let everyone have their own opinions - if we all agreed on everything, how boring life would be!

Camelot - (Restaurants in Tsilivi)

Shazza   (11 July 2004)         

All I can say is I can well believe all I hear about Bill. Definitely a ladies man - he's full of sh** and a very selfish person. I didn't believe a word that came out of his mouth, I love you etc. Please!! He is just after you for one thing, as are a lot of the other men on the island. Having said that though I have made a few good male friends out there that are just that - friends and they want nothing else. I can't believe that people believe these men will want them and them only - as soon as you are on the plane home they will be with someone else!! Enjoy the times you have with them when you are there and accept it as a holiday romance.

Also have to say I ate in the restaurant once and would not go back again - food is ok but prices expensive. They are very good with children though so if you are a family then this is a good place to go for that. If you want an excellent meal with excellent service and good prices then go to Koukos up the road - it will be the first place I visit when I go there.

Camelot - (Restaurants in Tsilivi)

Shazza   (13 July 2004)         

This is a site about restaurants, I agree, but does the restaurant not include the staff then!!!!!????? I like to go out for a meal where the waiters/waitresses are friendly and don't make you feel uncomfortable. He hovers around any table like a puppy where there are women and no men! If you enjoy that kind of attention then that's fine, but I don't. We are all allowed to voice our opinions and if you don't like it then don't come on to this site!! Simple!!

Camelot - (Restaurants in Tsilivi)

Shazza   (13 July 2004)         

I too have been to Zante (Tsilivi in particular) many times. In the restaurants I go to the waiters don't do this. They are friendly and interested in you as a person, not as the next person they are going to go to bed with! Anyway, people will find out for themselves when they go in there. Sites like this are excellent as you get varied comments, there will always be someone who loves the place and someone who hates it. I will always try places for myself anyway, even if all the comments are bad (unless the place when you arrive is empty and looks nasty).

As I said before, the restaurant is good for families and the staff are very good with children, as are most other restaurants.

Camelot - (Restaurants in Tsilivi)

Shazza   (15 July 2004)         

For your information, the comments I made about Bill were based on when he was working in the restaurant or at the front of restaurant. I did see him around outside of work but the most I said to him was hello. I certainly didn't want to get into any conversation with him, he was bad enough in the restaurant. So, my comments are relevant for this 'business website' as you called it!!

Camelot - (Restaurants in Tsilivi)

Shazza   (17 July 2004)         

That's great if you liked it in there - if you'd bothered to read any of my other comments properly you would see that I have put that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, some would like this restaurant and others wouldn't. These pages are great to get opinions of others I think, but obviously you are one of these people who can't stand others having any other opinion. Good for you if you got on with Bill too, I am sure he has many friends, but I am entitled to my opinion on him too!!

Anyway, as I said before, I spent one night in this restaurant and would not go back. I didn't spend any time with Bill outside the restaurant, as I'd had just about enough of him when I did go in there and also from walking past every night! Guess what - I can say he's selfish, all he spoke about was himself and that to me is selfish. With someone like that working there it's enough to put anyone off. Other restaurants have waiters that ask about you and your companion(s) and will speak about themselves a bit too. Also I am not a silly little English girl who will fall for his advances as some would, so for your information no I did not sleep with him (for a start he looks too hairy, do you want me to go on??).

To anyone else reading this, please try this restaurant for yourselves. This is only an opinion page and I am sure that a lot of people will like both Bill and Camelot restaurant.

Thanks Heidi for the warning, at least I know things haven't changed there and I know to avoid the restaurant like the plague!! Glad to see that someone else sees the same as me, obviously another person who goes to enjoy food and not be intimidated by sleazy waiters! I will be walking on the opposite side of the road when I go there.

Joker Bar - (Bars in Tsilivi)

Shazza            

Great to read that Jokers is back to it's best - can't wait to get back in there again! Will be good to see Marios, Costas and Dimitri. Only 7 weeks to go!!

This place finally has the rating it deserves in my opinion. Glad to see.

TO MATE AND KAREN (LOVE) - TRY READING ALL MY COMMENTS BEFORE YOU START ON - SEE BELOW WHICH WAS PUT ON JULY 17TH!! YOU ARE ENTITLED TO LIKE BOTH BILL AND THE RESTAURANT, THE REST OF US ARE ALL ENTITLED TO NOT LIKE BOTH.

To anyone else reading this, please try this restaurant for yourselves. This is only an opinion page and I am sure that a lot of people will like both Bill and Camelot restaurant.

Thanks Natalie - that's what this website is for, people to voice their own opinions and not slag off that of others if they don't like what they write. I'm glad you had a nice time in Camelot and enjoyed your stay in Tsilivi.

I know (before you all start writing) I am just as bad replying to comments on here but if people must include my name in their comments when they don't agree with me then you can understand why.

Anyway I think these silly comments have gone on long enough now and I for one will not be adding anymore. I hope others will use this website in the correct way from now and let everyone have their own say without things getting out of hand.

I say again as I have said before - EVERYONE SHOULD TRY CAMELOT FOR THEMSELVES!! HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY, I'M SURE MANY OF YOU WILL.

Sorry Natalie - I misread, thought you had been to Camelot! Well I'm glad you had a nice holiday anyway!

Well that's up to you if you choose to take it further but I can only apologise publically on this website to both yourself and your wife for my extremely pathetic and childish remarks.

Please all accept my apologies and be sure that I will not be writing on this website again.
