Ikara is a modern Greek kitchen inspired by the soul of the Aegean. Drawing from the island of Ikaria, where life moves slowly and food is celebrated. Ikara offers a focused, ingredient-led menu shaped by the Mediterranean way of eating.

Seasonal produce, wild herbs, ocean-fresh seafood, locally sourced meats, and olive oil lie at the heart of the kitchen’s philosophy. Every dish is crafted for the senses, rooted in refined simplicity and guided by the nutritional richness of the Mediterranean diet. This is a true taste of the Aegean, designed to linger long after the last bite.

    The prices of the main are a bit too high. Otherwise the restaurant is beautiful 😍 and the staff are fantastic! I love the small desserts at the end when the bill comes.
