Tsolia's Taverna

A family-run taverna on the main road near Lidl, serving home-style Cypriot dishes with produce sourced from the owner's family farms in Famagusta.

Tsolia's Taverna is a family-run spot on Protaras's main road, the kind of place locals and repeat visitors return to rather than a polished tourist-strip restaurant. Owner Andreas sources much of the produce from his own and his family's farms in nearby Famagusta, and it shows in the simplicity and freshness of the cooking.

The signature dishes are pork chops, moussaka, and kleftiko, though the kleftiko is only available on Fridays and needs to be pre-ordered. Reviewers consistently mention generous, unfussy portions, a friendly host, and the kind of home cooking that doesn't need a view or design gimmick to stand out.
