Traditional Zakynthian Cuisine by the Sea
Since 1963, Asteria Taverna has been welcoming guests to experience the timeless flavors of Zakynthos in a truly unique setting—right on the beach at Alykes. With recipes passed down through generations and prepared with fresh, local ingredients, every meal tells a story of family, heritage, and love for good food.
A Family Legacy of Hospitality and Taste
Asteria Taverna was founded by Labrinos Piskopos and his wife Zaharenia, combining their love of food, fishing, and winemaking into a family tradition. Labrinos cooked with ingredients he caught or grew himself, crafting dishes from the heart of Zakynthian culture. Today, that legacy continues in the same beachfront location, with the same passion for authentic flavors and warm hospitality.

Our Cuisine
Fresh Local Products – Flavors of the Island
At Asteria, we serve dishes made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients, many from our own garden. Whether it’s our beloved Mousaka, slow-roasted tomato-sauced rooster, or the simple joy of freshly picked tomatoes in Kagiana, every plate reflects the tradition of home-style cooking. Don’t miss our stuffed vegetables (Gemista) or our catch-of-the-day served with a view of the Ionian Sea.
Right on the Beach
Begin your day with breakfast and coffee under the morning sun, and end it with wine and seafood as the sky turns gold at sunset. Just steps from the sea, Asteria Taverna offers a relaxed, cozy atmosphere ideal for long lunches, family dinners, or just a refreshing drink after your swim.
