    Now I know where to avoid! We will do the crazy golf and maybe have a drink here when we're done, but won't be eating after this. Thank you for this, good video 👍🏻

      Thank you Scott. Well we had a bad experience with the food and we've had nasty messages sent from the owners aswell. a strange experience all round really. Thanks again Scott for your lovely comment 👍
      Just make sure you have cash on you as we found out when we went to pay on our card and as you heard , we had no cash on us and he just shrugged his shoulders and said what do I want me to do ,,
      We didn’t refuse to pay but after the abuse we got from him and even on here I’ won’t be back but we would never tell anyone not to go ,
      We are as honest as we can be and all our vlogs are based on our experience on the day we go ,,,
      But the abuse we got on some of our posts we’ve had to remove

    Well I’m just going to buck the trend here. Been going to kalamaki for nearly 20yrs now. And eaten in probably 70% of bars and restaurants on the and off the strip. And never had a bad meal at D&B’s. Saying that everybody’s taste is different. If I followed all your videos correctly you were here at the beginning of the season. Hence the problem you had with your hotel. If Danny had only just opened maybe he hadn’t transferred prices to the board. Or maybe (if you watch the travelling coxons video on the same restaurant) he doesn’t want UA-camrs filming his prices. Why I don’t know. But I will ask him next week and post again. Really enjoyed your video on corner45 (drunk corner). It was nice to see a UA-camr actually go in as it seems to get left out in a lot of videos. Also loved your video on kanalos. Never been but will definitely give it a go when where there. Thx for the videos. 😊👍🏻

      @sk1nney hello and thank you for your comment. We love the island of ZAKYNTHOS and Kalamaki in particular. We spent our time there busy filming lots of different things including food. Everyone we met were so friendly and happy for us to film which is great because it helps to promote the area and gives our UA-cam channel interesting content that is helpful for others. We stand by our review of D&B because the guy was rude .arrogant and made inappropriate personal comments. His food offering that night was embarrassing for his business. Each to their own but we wouldn't recommend based on our experience. Glad to hear that you enjoyed our other vlogs. The hotel issues we had is just part of the joys of travelling but it was an experience. Thank you again for your lovely comment and look forward to hearing from you again 👍

      @@petenchelleuk thank you for the reply as you say it’s each to there own and rightly so. Just a quick question regarding kanalos. What time of day did you go there? As where trying to gauge what time to grab a taxi up there. Also have you or anyone else ever eaten at milos? We’ve always walked by as it looks very quiet but people are dropping really good reviews on the kalamaki forums. So thought we might give that a go. Just fancy trying a few different places this time around. 👍🏻

    Totally 100% agree with this review. We had a dreadful meal there. The ribs were cheap and the steak was chewy and tough. He became really defensive and aggressive with us when we complained. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

      Hello Jackie and thank you for your comment and feedback. Our experience was bad and hes a nasty person deep down. Every restaurant owner will at some point get a bad review no matter how good they are it's just how things are in life but it's how you handle the complaints. Our food was not the usual standard you would expect from Greeks. No care No passion We will never return. Wouldn't recommend either

      Hello Robert our reviews are honest and as we always say its on the day. He's an American/Greek guy and he's the owner and as for the scores well the WiFi and the table and chairs 😆 🤣 😂 but if our UA-cam vlog has helped you decide then we would say definitely eat elsewhere. Loads of lovely places in Kalamaki to enjoy the Greek hospitality. Thank you Robert and enjoy your holiday 👍
