La Maison Fleurie

French fine dining

For a slice of the high life while staying in Limassol, head to La Maison Fleurie for classic French food. From boeuf bourguignon and steak tartar minced in front of you to moules mariniere and lamb navarin, you can select a dish from the wide-ranging menu and pair it with fine wine. The warm and friendly service is top-notch, and waiters would be wise to advise you to save room for the delicious desserts. The Sunday Brunch here is also one of the best on the island.

Louis Taverna & Restaurant

Fresh family-made Cypriot cuisine

A strictly family-run restaurant, this traditional Cypriot tavern has a unique, relaxing ambience revolving around a central fireplace and complemented by smooth music. But the main draw is the fresh food – ingredients picked in the fields and selected daily at markets by owner Louis himself – encompassing authentic island dishes. Whether you want to sample souvlaki, halloumi or a multitude of meze, you’ll be pushed to find a more welcoming or traditional all-around venue.
