Lygaria invites guests to immerse in the true essence of Greek island cuisine

Nestled within the idyllic Kea Retreat, Lygaria is a charming small-scale shared dining experience that draws inspiration from the Cycladic sun, the Aegean breeze, and the traditions of Greek island culture. The restaurant opens its doors exclusively during the summer months, from June to September, offering an intimate yet abundant culinary experience. The chef skillfully blends ancient and traditional cooking techniques with modern upscale flavors, resulting in dishes that are a delightful fusion of the past and the present. The menu celebrates the abundant treasures of the Aegean Sea, the lush vegetables, and the sun-ripened fruits sourced directly from the retreat’s very own farm and other local farms on the island. Embracing the ever-changing rhythm of nature, the menu evolves daily, capturing the essence of the island.  Inside there is a state-of-the-art kitchen, where culinary wonders come to life. But the real magic happens outdoors, where a handcrafted stone grill and taboon take center stage.
