Nammos

One of the hottest tables in Mykonos is undoubtedly in Nammos Restaurant, a beachside establishment on one of the most beautiful beaches of Mykonos Island. With its seaside location on Psarou beach, it’s formal dining lounge of five-star elegance, its tables on the sand beach club and terraced sunset views, Nammos is a draw for the celebrities and glitterati of the Mykonos scene.

Able to accommodate any mood, Nammos has something for every kind of visitor to Mykonos. The terraced bar is lively and sparkling with the excitement of the Mykonos celebrity scene. The café is informal relaxation by the seaside, with elegant light fare and customized cocktails. The restaurant is formal elegance and haute cuisine while the beach club is fun and frolicking with full service.

Since it is a place you can stay at all day, why not start in the morning when the buff and bronzed serving staff begin to lay out the chaise lounges under the bamboo umbrella shades. A cool drink and a light snack make the sun tanning more enjoyable and a frolic in the cool Aegean waters refreshes the appetite. Since you’re in Mykonos, why not indulge? Champagne on ice in a silver bucket, with prawn sandwiches and sushi, will get you in the right frame of mind for the Nammos experience.

The lively bar scene is likely to be alive with paparazzi following every movement of the soccer stars and shipping magnates, and the classic décor and elegant service will have you feeling like a star yourself. Customized cocktails only add to the effect. After sunset, retire to the restaurant for dinner at Nammos. The surrounding cliffsides are illuminated and the sky is alive with stars, while the lounge and dining area sparkle with stars of a different kind.

The cuisine is a mix of ultra-modern fusions, Italian, Greek and Arabic themed dishes. The pasta and risottos feature non-traditional ingredients such as truffles and caviar, as well as unexpected flourishes such as capers. A smoked salmon and caviar salad is an experience not to be missed, especially if accompanied by champagne. The freshly caught fish are arrayed for selection on the ice and grilled to perfection, as are the giant rib-eye steaks. The piece de resistance, the item that best sums up the Nammos experience though is the bowl of creamy chocolate and vanilla mousse that is de rigeur for dessert. A sinfully decadent and delicious concoction, it is the perfect cap to a day of Mykonos luxury.

Nammos Restaurant is the epitome of Mykonos, drawing the decadent and starry-eyed in search of opulent luxury and reveling in the glory of nature and the nearness of celebrity. Whether a full day, a stop in the café or a night in the lounge, Nammos is always an experience.
