Stepping into Bagatelle House through the complex’s Instagrammable door, you’re greeted with a scene that’s electric yet elegantly laid-back, positioned right on the bustling seafront of Hora, moments from the iconic windmills. This is where the well-heeled come to soak in the sunsets and French dining, Mykonos style.
Bagatelle House – its siblings present in places as far and wide as Budrum and London, Mexico City and Dubai – is all about luxuriant living. The restaurant thrives on a philosophy of joie de vivre, served up in an open-air setting that invites in the sea breeze. Here, contemporary Mediterranean cuisine meets French culinary artistry in a dance of memorable flavors and authentic simplicity. The menu highlights include delicately prepared tartare dishes that tease the palate, and the signature main event—a whole free-range chicken encrusted in herbs, making every bite a revelation.
This year, as part of the La Sunset Plaza reinvention, Bagatelle House aims to redefine the concept of joie de vivre, offering patrons a festive environment that serves as a second home for both locals and cosmopolitan travelers alike.

At Beefbar, an all-day beach bar restaurant with a grand global presence, luxury meets the laid-back Riviera vibe. Located within the stylish Bill & Coo Coast Suites on Agios Ioannis Beach, it provides an unparalleled high-end dining experience.
The restaurant’s concept cleverly aligns its steakhouse roots with a fresh Mediterranean flair, introducing a rich selection of seafood. Prime cuts are flame-grilled, seared, or served raw in sharing platters and elevated street food, such as the signature Kobe beef gyros. From succulent tartare and ceviche to crispy calamari, each dish reflects the island’s bounty, best enjoyed with a glass of Assyrtiko wine or any other selection from an excellently curated list.
The decor is a feast for the eyes, with every detail – from the pergola shades that flap gently in the sea breeze to refined red marble tables – creating an air of sophisticated tranquility. As night falls, the ambiance shifts, spotlighting exquisite cuts of meat that promise a carnivore’s delight in an exclusive ambiance.

Nero Nero is made for lovers, offering an intimate dining experience ideal for those who yearn for chic privacy and one-on-one exclusivity. Accessible by private boat or through a candle-lit pathway that descends to a wooden deck above the water, this single-table restaurant provides a uniquely romantic setting.
The menu, presented under a sleek black canopy, features beautifully prepared fine-dining meals with luxurious ingredients like lobster, scallops paired with foie gras, turbot, and Wagyu beef. Start off with a Gillardeau oyster in crust of citrus pearls with aged rum syrup on dry ice. Progress with the blue crab tartar with passion fruit, citrus, cashew crumble and black garlic syrup and for your main, try the Yellow Fin tuna with citrus crust cooked on charcoal.
Attentive service makes diners feel privileged and cared for, enhancing the pampering experience. As does the very setting – candlelit eating under a black canopy, eating a deux over the water’s edge, surrounded by Mykonos’ legendary lights and the smell of the sea.

Phoebus sets itself apart in the Mykonos dining scene with a clear focus: a pescatarian menu that involves cooking – or not – each part of the fish in a way that highlights all the different flavors and textures of the body, tail, head and belly. Embracing a straightforward and sustanability-friendly philosophy, it celebrates the freshness of vegetarian ingredients and a broad array of fresh, top-quality seafood.
Here you’ll find inventive dishes such as aged tuna tartare, elevated by a flavorful almond-scented avgolemono (egg-lemon cream) sauce and artichoke, and accented with crisp pear for texture. Another standout is the smoked eel salad, a complex dish where sweet and savory notes converge, complemented by watermelon emulsion and a hint of celery mayonnaise.
The decor of Phoebus reflects the aesthetic of its surroundings: white walls and curved stone pathways, rustic wooden chairs and a geometric blue-and-white patterned floor give it a distinct stylistic approach. The courtyard, lively and inviting, complements an indoor space where ancient pottery inspires the ceramic accents.

The rustic tavern offers an authentic Greek dining experience with fresh fish and meats grilled on an outdoor barbecue. Diners can savor dishes accompanied by tangy salads and traditional Greek sides such as baked feta and eggplant while enjoying the rustic setting under the shade of trees with views of the sea.

In the heart of Mykonos, quietly tucked into a quaint alleyway of Hora, this small taverna run by twin brothers, whose mother is the cook, has carved out a niche for itself over the past two decades. Operating on a seasonal basis, it’s often the first kitchen to fire up in the spring and the last to roll up its shutters in the fall.
Maereio’s menu reads like a love letter to life in Mykonos. The fluffy, crisp-fried meatballs are a throwback to the brothers’ childhood, while dishes like the local sausage paired with feta and fresh veggies are a salute to the Greek tradition. Not to be overlooked, louza, a local sausage, complements any selection. The menu also includes traditional Greek favorites such as mostra with kopanisti cheese, hearty fricassee, and a mix of snails cooked in tomato sauce.
The old style, unpretentious ambiance of Maereio mirrors the simplicity and rugged beauty of Cycladic life and the restaurant’s deep history, as revealed in the pictures on the wall. With just five or six tables on a sun-drenched veranda, the setting is intimate, drawing a mix of locals, knowledgeable tourists, and island workers. It’s a place where the chatter flows as easily as the house wine, and every meal feels like a gathering of friends.
16 Kalogera, Hora
