A Mykonos outpost of the acclaimed Athens-based seafood restaurant.

Having first opened in the early 1990’s in Mikrolimano, Piraeus, the family-owned Papaioannou Restaurant has always been a local haunt for Athenians in search of simple, high-quality seafood. Thirty years on, Papaioannou has expanded its offering with restaurants in Kifissia, Piraeus and Vouliagmeni - and, now, in Mykonos. Tucked away in the northwest of the Cycladic Island on Agios Stefanos beach - spread across three elegant spaces, it seamlessly integrates natural Cycladic beauty while drawing inspiration from the 1960s - incorporating the classic azure and white colour palette. The restaurant also has seaside seating along the beach. 

Signature dishes include raw plates such as tartars, ceviches and crudo; sardines on the bone, grilled squid and steamed dusky grouper; a variety of seafood pasta dishes including the signature crawfish orzo; and fresh tomatoes and Chef Papaioannou’s legendary taramosalata. The Mykonos menu also offesr meat dishes including Black Angus beef tenderloin and Tomahawk steak.
