Il Borgo

Kefallonia


At the entrance to Peratata village, Il Borgo has a big terrace shaded by vines that grow along the roof trestles, and views over the southern plains that you'll never tire of. It serves decent steaks, pastas and some traditional Greek dishes. People pour out of Argostoli at weekends to eat here.
