It's meze, but with a twist. To Patrikon infuses a modern-Med approach to classic Cypriot meze (minimum two people), adding touches of creative flair. Grilled meats get lashed with Commandaria (sweet wine); the haloumi (hellim in Turksih) is homemade; and the salads are inventive, fresh and full of herbs. Service is stellar, and the bright, modern interior cosy and welcoming. It's on the main street in Tersefanou.
