Piatsa Gourounaki

A high-volume Cypriot grill in the heart of old Nicosia known for charcoal-grilled meats and souvlaki at very affordable prices.

Piatsa Gourounaki is one of the most talked-about grill houses in old Nicosia, built around traditional charcoal grilling of pork and other meats. It draws a loyal local and visitor following and is consistently described as busy, sometimes with a wait of around 30 minutes at peak times, which is generally taken as a sign of how highly regarded it is rather than a deterrent.

What stands out across reviews is the value: large, generous portions at prices well below what comparable grilled-meat spots charge elsewhere on the island, paired with attentive, friendly service. It is a good pick for travelers who want a proper sit-down meal of souvlaki and grilled meats without a fine-dining bill.
