"I went to this restaurant last year, I really enjoyed the view and the mood of the place. The meal was great, but I was a bit disappointed : - Cocktails were expensive, but they didn't taste really good. - Tarama tasted so good, but we had to pay to get a small piece of bread. - Moussaka was really too salty. One really good point : the dessert tasted really good."

"We stumbled upon this restaurant after going to the monastery that neighbors it. It was early for dinner standards but we had our one year old with us. Sat down at around 5:45pm and had lovely service, food and of course views. The sommelier recommended a lovely local white wine, and the server was very attentive and kind to us and our 1 year old daughter. The food was incredible, we loved everything. If we find ourselves back in Corfu in the future we will definitely be back!"

"The restaurant is super pretty at sunset we reserved a table in section D and were seated in the 3rd row and had perfect view of the ocean and sunset. The food is moderately expensive its average restaurant prices. The portions are big for a restaurant. Would recommend going there."

"Absolutely amazing food combined with a breathtaking view! Monastre is truly a hidden gem in Paleokastritsa. Every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed, and the panoramic sea view makes the experience even more special. Make sure to reserve in advance, as it gets busy – and for good reason. Totally worth it. We’ll definitely be back!"
