On our last night in Kefallonia we were rather late going out for a meal and our usual eating place was full. We decided to try Penolopes and what a disappointment. I ordered Lamb Kleftiko and my husband decided on the curried chicken fillet with chips. Only two small pieces of my meat were edible, the other half a dozen bits were thick fat with some strange gristley circles in. What part of the lamb they came from I dare not imagine! My husbands chicken had been sliced into a thin fillet, either that or it came from a very skinny chicken! The curry was mediocre and thank goodness he ordered some chips because the meal was so small it would not have fed a child adequately. Not only was this our worst meal in Kefallonia it was the worst meal I have had in my entire life. Disgraceful! On the plus side the waitress was very friendly. Definitely no rating at all!!
We have holidayed in Kefalonia three times and on each occasion dined at the Aridas Palace. The food is plentiful, of a high standard, and always served with a huge side salad. The service is excellent and the walnut cake is divine! I would recommend this place for its delicious food and friendly service without hesitation.
