Avli Greek Cuisine – A Shining Gem in Benitses
Why Avli? Because it’s more than just dinner — it’s a warm embrace of Corfiot hospitality, unforgettable flavors, and the kind of service that makes you feel like family.
Tucked away in the heart of Benitses, Avli Greek Cuisine is more than just a restaurant — it’s an experience. From the moment we stepped in, we were welcomed like old friends. Mirella greeted us with a warm smile that set the tone for the evening, and Spyros guided us through the menu like a true host who loves what he does.
The vibe? Stylish and relaxed, with a romantic air in the evening and chill music in the background. The decor is tasteful and modern, easily one of the most beautiful dining spaces we saw in Corfu.
And the food — wow. We shared a range of starters, all prepared with local ingredients and rich Greek olive oil. The grilled octopus was tender and full of flavor, and the linguine with sea urchin? Easily in my top three pasta experiences ever. Don’t miss the traditional rooster pastitsada either — an Ionian classic done right.
There’s a thoughtful wine list with both Greek and Italian selections, and the staff were more than happy to help pair them with the dishes.
What stood out was the atmosphere: elegant, but never pretentious. Families, couples, and friends all felt right at home, and even the youngest guests were thought of — there’s a public kindergarten next door for those dining with kids.
Avli isn’t just another restaurant — it’s a place you’ll remember, and one you’ll want to return to. If you’re exploring southern Corfu, don’t miss it.
