Ein Wort: perfekt! Wirklich alles ist grandios gut!

We have just spent a week in Tsilivi - our first time there - but over the years we have spent countless holidays in Greece across the islands On every holiday we eat out regularly, always trying a different place each night where we can and this one was no different. The choice in Tsilivi as a whole is fantastic - too much for just 1 week really - so this wasn't an issue for us. However, after finding Halfway House on TripAdvisor and seeing it was the #1 rated in the area we had to give it a go. We did - it was incredible - and so we just couldn't resist a 2nd visit on our last night 🙂 Incredible is an understatement really when it comes to here. Greek food never fails to disappoint no matter where you eat it in Greece, but Halfway House pushes it to the next level. This is a proper restaurant with an extensive and impressive wine list (most of which is Zakynthian) that really would not be out of place in the centre of London. The service is impeccable and the food, well, on both occasions it left us speechless. Seriously impressive - freshly cooked Greek and Mediterranean food but done so, so well. The homemade lemon meringue pie and orange pie (see picture) is an absolute must! Personally, given the quality of food and wine, I think Halfway House is excellent value for money and worth every cent. Yes, it is slightly more expensive than a place up on the main strip or in the centre of Tsilivi, but it really will not break the bank and you simply will not find food like this anywhere else in the area - I dare say on the island as a whole If you appreciate good food, good wine and are excited by proper Greek food then this place is a must visit whilst in Tsilivi. Be sure to book in advance on their website to avoid disappointment - it's unsurprisingly very popular! Thanks to all the staff and management of Halfway House. You have a really special place there - never let it go. We will be back!

Super lekker en goed eten! Je moet echt reserveren van tevoren want het zit altijd vol en ik begrijp nu waarom. Heerlijk gezeten, erg gezellig rustige griekse muziek op de achtergrond. Toprestaurant, toetjes waren ook echt heerlijk!

Probably the best meal I had whilst staying in Tsivili!

Twee keer hier gegeten. Zit uit de loop van de doorgaande weg. Het personeel is vriendelijk en professioneel. Eten is wat ons betreft het beste wat we in Tsilivi gegeven hebben. Als je zeker wilt zijn van een plaats moet je reserveren. Echt een aanrader.

We stayed on Zakynthos for 7 nights and ate dinner here 3 times. Everything was perfect, we tried lots of different dishes and wine and they were all great!

Scump,fin ,bun.

Zeer lekker gegeten, mooi zitten en een geweldige service. Een top adresje 👌🏻

I'm sat on the plane home to the UK, day dreaming with fondness of the delicious meal I had here with my partner last night. A reservation is advised for this slightly out of the way, but justifiably popular restaurant. On our second visit, we again stuck to pasta dishes, the prawn linguine especially was so delicious that every mouthful was tinged with sadness as it brought you a step closer to finishing it. Credit where credit is due, the chefs & serving staff obviously take care and pride in what they are doing here. The traditional homemade desserts were a perfect end confirming at least one visit here is highly recommended. All other eateries in the same area pale by comparison in terms of welcome, service and quality.

Mooi restaurant met een chique ambiance. De bediening is heel correct en professioneel. De wijn is lekker en de sommelier adviseerde goed. Het eten was top. Koffie kon beter.

Sehr aufmerksame Bedienung und toller Service! (Fragen nach Allergien, Hilfe bei Reservierung.) Speisen sind zwar teurer als in anderen "Tavernen" dadurch, dass es so professionell und hochklassig ist jedoch vollkommen in Ordnung.

Excellent food. Lovely atmosphere. Super restaurant. Fantastic staff. Have the lemon meringue pie you won't be disappointed

Πολύ ωραία ατμόσφαιρα, εξαιρετικό σέρβις κ υπέροχο φαγητό. Ευγενικό προσωπικό, έτοιμο να σε εξυπηρετήσει. Αξίζει να δοκιμάσετε την καραμελωμενη παντσετα. Όλα τα πιάτα και τα γλυκά στο τέλος, το ένα καλύτερο από το άλλο.

sehr nettes und zuvorkommendes Personal, schöne Atmosphäre und leckeres Essen und Getränke. Alles perfekt, kommen gerne wieder!

Recommendation from @thelazytraveller The best meal we’ve had in Tsilivi so far. Very busy when we arrived and we hadn’t booked but after a short wait Dionisis found a table for us. We started with the trio of home made dips and pitta followed by lamb shank and Gemista. The portions were generous and the wine pairings recommended by Timotheos were spot on. Not fancying the walk back to our hotel they kindly ordered a taxi for us home, nothing it seems is too much trouble for this wonderful establishment. Would highly recommend booking so you don’t miss out on this exceptional restaurant.

the food here is so good, it made me decide (a five year vegetarian) to try the grilled chicken…and it was PERFECT. if you want amazing food and great service, this is the place. cocktails are unique, especially the pink aperol spritz! the waiters are so polite, humorous and speak english extremely well. the atmosphere is pleasant and very relaxing. we would have taken photos of our meals, but it just looked and smelt too good- we had to tuck in straight away!

What can I say, fabulous food, atmosphere & extremely clean. The staff are lovely - they make you feel at home but with a professional manner, after visiting many restaurants recommended to us, this by far stands out - hence why we came back 3 nights. Traditional Greek food made to a high standard, thank you we will be back again

We have dined here for many years and the Halfway House never fails to provide excellent food and drink. All the staff are friendly, welcoming and attentive. This particular visit I had the prawn linguine followed by lemon meringue pie. I can highly recommend both these dishes. A trip to Tsilivi is not complete without a visit to the Halfway House. Yamas!

Unico posto che ho trovato sui 25-30€ di budget che non fosse una trappola per turisti Il cibo è delizioso e leggermente particolare, anche se un po’ più costoso della media ma la qualità ripaga A fare davvero la differenza però è il personale, gentilissimo, disponibile, simpatico e per nulla invadente Top posto! Ps eravamo quattro ragazzi turisti che volevano fare una cena carina e con antipasto o dolce e primo/secondo ci siamo riempiti (anche se non da scoppiare) I piatti migliori senza dubbio il salmone e il dolce della casa (tipo biscotto con crema, vaniglia e ciliegie)

Lovely restaurant. No one at the entrance beckoning you in. Quiet location. Good job we booked as it was full. Nice selection of drinks. Food is fantastic, excellent quality. Not massive portions but adequate. Service excellent. A little more expensive than the restaurants in the town but well worth paying the extra. Its a 10 from me.

Безумно найкраща вечеря за весь відпуск! Камеральна атмосфера, прекрасне обслуговування! Дуже рекомендуємо grilled salmon

The Halfway House in Zakynthos is a true culinary delight. The quiet, cozy location creates a perfect intimate setting. Their hospitality is exceptional - they went above and beyond for our birthday celebration with a personal touch. The food is fantastic, with generous portions and thoughtful extras like refilling pita for dips. Main courses were so good we sadly had no room for dessert! Service is top-notch and incredibly friendly. The staff's warmth and attention to detail make you feel truly special. A must-visit for anyone in Zakynthos looking for great food in a charming atmosphere. We'll definitely be back to try those tempting desserts!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Heerlijk gegeten bij halfway house. Een steak pasta, erg smaakvol. Aanrader!

Amazing people Amazing food Amazing attention to service Amazing wine Amazing experience

Very nice restaurant for a lovely night out. Staff is amazing and kind. Food is delicious. All the tatstes of Greece come together. We had dinner twice during our stay in Zakynthos and if i could i would have every day.

TOP , GEWELDIG eten , kwaliteit, en kennis van zaken 😋🥂👌🇧🇪

I had a wonderful experience at Halfway. The atmosphere is absolutely superb calm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxed meal. The waitstaff were impeccable, offering attentive and friendly service. The food arrived quickly and was absolutely delicious. Everything about the visit was just right, making it a place I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable dining experience.

We found this place through google reviews when we were looking to eat somewhere nice! What stood out was it was a place for foodies! I would recommend making a reservation. We didn’t and only had to wait 10 minutes but it is a popular restaurant. We understood why! The food and cocktails were delicious. I would recommend to anyone in the area looking for yummy Greek food. Would be back if we went back to Zante.

Really enjoyed our meal with friends, best presented food on our trip..fantastic

It is one of the best restaurants on the island. Delicious food good wines. The food offer is local and with international flavour. Reservation recommended!

A fantastic little restaurant with beautiful food and friendly staff.

Wonderful restaurant off the beaten track, run by a lovely Family. Prices slightly higher than elsewhere but the excellent quality of the food, setting and the high quality customer experience delivered by the team completely justifies it! Would definitely recommend booking too. Will be back again soon.

We found this place last year. We were so happy after eating here 3 times last summer we were excited to come back again. We were not let down. They continued to serve amazing g food, and the service is great. The prices are very reasonable as well. We will be back again soon. The owner is a great guy and is very respectful. I love that they are outdoors, but they make people go further away to smoke. The atmosphere is really neat. I highly recommend trying this place out and please let me know you thought.

Definitely the best food and service we had during our 2 weeks stay at Zakynthos! Can highly recommend this place, the food is absolutely delicious!

Excellent service and food. Without doubt the best restaurant on Zante!

Personale cordiale e professionale, cibo ottimo e di qualità, anche la location molto carina (i prezzi rispecchiano il valore dell'insieme). Personalmente il miglior ristorante provato a Zakhyntos! Lo straconsiglio!

Όλα πολύ ωραία. Παραγγείλαμε πιτακια με διάφορα ντιπ, μια σαλάτα burrata, πολύ φρέσκα και δύο πιάτα ζυμαρικών. Ένα με μοσχάρι και ένα με κοτόπουλο. Και τα δύο πεντανόστιμα. Ο άντρας μου παράγγειλε και ένα ποτήρι κρασί Μοσχοφίλερο, το οποίο δεν ήταν κάτι ιδιαίτερο, απλά καλό. Όλη η διαδικασία, από την οδήγηση στο τραπέζι μέχρι τα κερασμένα χωνευτικά μυρωδάτα λικερακια ήταν ατμοσφαιρική. Ευχάριστη εμπειρία.

Everything is just perfect, the staff, the vibe, the decoration, the food. It is a family driven restaurant and it shows! This was te best restaurant we have been to on zakynthos, one of the best restaurants we have ever been outside of zakynthos aswell. Tim is an amazing host and his mum makes incredible desserts.

Αν περάσεις απέξω απο το όμορφο αυτό εστιατόριο και δεις αμέσως σε κεντρίζει, το υπέροχο φως που εκπέμπει και αυτή η καθαρότητα σαν χώρος εστιατορίου αμέσως εντυπωσιάζεσαι! !! Αισθάνομαι πάρα πολύ τυχερή που μένω πάρα πολύ κοντά σε αυτό το πανέμορφο εστιατόριο πραγματικά οι γεύσεις είναι εκπληκτικές η ποιότητα είναι άριστη και το προσωπικό φιλικό και ευγενικό σέβονται πάρα πολύ τον πελάτη και υπάρχει μία γαλήνη και κάτι πολύ όμορφο στην ατμόσφαιρα ! Παρόλο που είμαι καπνίστρια μου άρεσε πολύ το ότι έπρεπε να βγω έξω σε ένα συγκεκριμένο τραπεζάκι να καθίσω να καπνίσω χωρίς να ενοχλώ τους γύρω μου ☺️ χαίρομαι που υπάρχει σεβασμός Το φαγητό ήτανε τόσο νόστιμο και τα προϊόντα εξαιρετικά , τα γλυκά είναι μοναδικά και χειροποίητα η Κυρία που τα φτιάχνει έχει μεράκι και αγάπη ! Τι να πω εντυπωσιάστηκα πάρα πολύ αισθάνομαι πολύ τυχερή που γνώρισα αυτό το υπέροχο μαγαζί με τόσο καλούς Ανθρώπους . Σας ευχαριστώ να είστε πάντα καλά 🫶🏻

Zojuist hier heerlijk gegeten. Echt een parel in Tsivili. Goede ontvangst, mooie kaart. Lekkere gerechten. En de porties zijn meer dan genoeg. Het is een familie restaurant, en daarmee geven ze net dat beetje extra waardoor je terug wil komen. Wij hadden geluk dat we zonder reserveren in tafel voor vier hadden. Wij komen zeker terug. Oh ja sfeer 4 sterren omdat de beoordeling anders niet geloofwaardig is.

Nice restaurant in Tsivili. Ambiance, food and service.

Afgelopen 2 weken hebben wij hier 2x gegeten. 2x konden wij toevallig zonder reservering terecht, waarvoor dank ! Heel vriendelijk personeel, prachtig ingericht restaurant en een heerlijke menu kaart. Na het heerlijke voorgerecht zijn we voor de steak gegaan en die was uitstekend. Ik vind het juist heel fijn dat de porties prima zijn en niet overdadig, er liggen geen onnodige vullers (patat en rijst) op je bord. Er blijft dan nog ruimte over voor dessert :-D.
