About Us · Zakynthos Town
A true Zakynthian table, set for everyone.
In the heart of Zakynthos Town, Alektor brings together the food, the fresh fish, the wine and the songs of Zakynthos — the same warm welcome, the same open door.
Our Story
More than a meal — a true Zakynthian experience.
Named Alektor — the ancient Greek word for rooster — our restaurant sits on Dimokratias Square, in the heart of Zakynthos Town.
Traditional Greek dishes and fresh fish, a few Italian favourites, local wine and live music every night — this is where the island gathers, and where visitors find the real Zakynthos.
The Experience
An evening at Alektor
Take your table on the square, in the heart of Zakynthos Town — room for a couple or a party of many.
Traditional Greek dishes, fresh fish and Italian favourites, with local wine.
Guitar, mandolin and the Zakynthian kantades fill the night.
When the kefi rises, the floor fills with Greek dancing until late.
What We Believe
Three things we never change
Cooked from scratch
The best-quality Greek and Zakynthian products — local fish, island produce and our own recipes, nothing frozen, nothing rushed.
Everyone is family
Wherever you have travelled from, you are welcome here — we treat every guest the same, like our own family.
Music every night
Live guitar and mandolin — the traditional Zakynthian kantades — then dancing under the stars until late.
The Family
The people behind the fire
The family and team who cook, pour, play and dance with you every evening — in the same kitchen, on the same square.
“Kalos irthate — you arrive as guests and leave as friends.”
