The place

Small village. Good cooking.

SABOR sits on the pedestrian street of Marathopoli, right by the sea, facing Proti islet.

The kitchen is built on quality ingredients, the flavours of Messinia, and dishes that change through the year with the seasons.

    On the table, we start with twice-proved sourdough bread, Messinian lalangi and olive oil.

    The menu features plenty of vegan options, with greens, fava, mushrooms and seasonal ingredients holding their own place in our kitchen.

Dishes of the day.

On any given day there may be something beyond the menu, depending on the season, on what came in fresh, and on whatever good we found that day.

Ask us at the table what we have made today, or give us a call.

“A must-visit if you’re staying in this town or anywhere nearby. Our server, whose mum owns the restaurant, was incredibly warm and helpful, and made us feel right at home. One of our favourite meals in Greece.”

“An unexpected absolute gem. Very rarely we go twice to the same place when on holiday, but we just couldn’t resist. Amazing dishes, very well presented but not pretentious. The best Greek Salad we ever had.”

“The best food we have tasted in a very long time. Excellent flavours and a distinctive note in every dish. The shank and the ribs we ordered were simply epic. The service is excellent, and the lady chef in the kitchen deserves every congratulation.”
