"Platanos is just what you want when you set out to eat unpretentious, grilled, and unreconstructed Greek dishes (try the lamb with artichoke, and the eggplant salad)."

"Taking its name from the plátanos (plane) tree outside, this 1932-founded taverna showcases meat-based stews and laderá (cooked vegetable dishes) in its repertoire."

"One of several evening-only tavernas around the main square of the upper town, serving inexpensive, earthy rural food (the owners also have a butcher’s shop)."
