Excellent lunch experience, The menu included greek classics as well as some modern takes (including the spanakopita).
The baklava+ice cream dish was a favourite.
Friendly and professional service.
Would definitely visit again.
It was my wife’s birthday, they couldn’t have been nicer. Food was excellent quality, great choices on wine and drinks. We had a great night, we went in early as well as the heavens opened, nothing was a problem.
We had great time and fabulous food. The service is very good and all together was very nice dinner
We went here for for my birthday, we had the most beautiful meal, it was a fabulous night and perfect for eating outside
Well looked after by the waiter. Lovely food and great wine. Not too pricey. Went twice in our week in Corfu. Great vibe in a busy area.
We decided to celebrate my husband’s birthday at the Rex Restaurant. It was a memorable evening. I had wild mushrooms with artichokes as a starter followed by roasted squid with vegetables. He had scallops in artichoke sauce with truffle oil followed by lamb shank. Everything was beautifully prepared with its own distinctive flavor and was nicely presented. The scallops were outstanding.. We sat on the street side and had the luxury of people watching during dinner. The waiter was excellent. It was our best dining experience in Corfu and maybe even the best in Greece.. Highly recommended!
Outstanding food! Amazing choice of best wines! A perfect service! This place is worthwhile to have dinner there! Perfect experience!
In an area that can be hit-and-miss, Rex delivered a wonderful dining experience on our last night in Corfu.
The food was absolutely delicious and very well prepared. The service was excellent – friendly, attentive, and professional. A truly great dining experience, highly recommended!
the scallops with sauce were very tasty, the octopus was also tasty
I liked everything from the service to the dishes.
Thank you
We had dinner here 4 times and tried different dishes. All were very fresh, tasty and beautifully presented. Very friendly and attentive staff that makes you feel welcome. We will certaily come back another time.
Muy bonito el restaurante y se come fenomenal
Lo recomiendo mucho
We sat outside on a balmy evening with the house martins swooping overhead and the background hum of people chatting, laughing, eating and drinking- like many restaurants in Corfu the tables are cheek by jowl in the pedestrianised street- the service was efficient not effusive, food was so tasty from the scallops to start that weee just an so cooked to perfection - we chose prawns bianco a delicious blend of wine garlic and lemon for the sauce my main was Lamb baked long and slow with potatoes and herbs both just delicious- mono room for dessert on this occasion but sure to return . The couple on the table beside us said they been coming every year for 12 years to this restaurant - I can see why .
Amazing food. You can't go wrong eating at this restaurant. Great service
We shared courses and they were very accommodating. Very courteous and patient staff who were not pushy at all.
All courses were very memorable. Tasty and well presented.
We preferred staying indoors.
Highly recommended.
I always choose Rex Restaurant when i visit Corfu. I love the ambience and the old corfian venetsian vibe. I tried the new salad with wild greens and nouboulo as well as the local dish pastitsda. Highy suggest a visit.
Excellent food and wine. Every meal eaten there has never disappointed. One of the restaurants we chose to take our visitors.
Nice food good customer services big portions 🤰
We really enjoyed the experience at the restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. We paid around 130 euros (including tip) for a bottle of wine, a starter, two main courses and dessert.
we were a big group, had a private room which was great. the service was excellent, the food was very good, a bit expensive
Top quality service, good served at the right pace and wine glasses refilled when necessary. The food was excellent and the portions were decent. The street is quite noisy and hot so I’d recommend going off season
Amazing food. HIGHLY reccomend. The veal was particularly tasty.
Great local restaurant in the middle of the madness of a tourist pedestrian highway. Food and service were above expectations.
Undeniably the best
Brilliant food and service
Reasonably priced
Wonderful menu and delicious
Visited the place in several occasions and always loved it. One of the best restaurants in Corfu! Great food with traditional flavors and excellent service!
Always at the top for food location and service . Highly recommended
We enjoyed an evening with great food in a nice restaurant. The variety of dishes is good, even if the amount is not too big.
The only point to improve would be the possibility or willingness to change parts of the dish, like noodles instead of mashed potatoes.
Nevertheless we will be back
Very enjoyable. Center of the town with a busy atmosphere around.
The food was delicious! we are really enjoyed the vibs and the service!
Wonderful ambience sitting outside street side (or you can dine indoors with elegant deco)…
Great assistance choosing the right wine with our dinner.
Don’t normally like it…but tried their octopus, which was slow roasted. Tender..to die for!!
And try their salty doughnuts as a savory appetizer. Stuffed with warm Greek cheese and drizzled with a sweet & spicy tomato sauce. Incroyable!
Going back again before we leave…because when you find a good thing stick with it.
Excellent
🇮🇹Many of the other restaurants found in the main streets of Corfu Town were nothing like that.🤩In addition to being the only one who provided us with an Italian menu, Rex cooked delicious, particular and not expensive foods.🤤Hearty and tasty dishes. the waiters and the owner were really welcoming and nice.🥰Not a single flaw, thanks for everything.❤️
I was there for dinner with my husband and we were amazed by every meal and Appetizer we ordered . This is definitely worth visiting for a unique food arr experience!
Original food in a nice ambiance…
We ate here on a number of occasions during a week stay in Corful and it was by far the best of the restaurants that we tried. Staff were very pleasant and the food was fresh and of high quality.
The service and the food is perfect!😊
Fantastic location. Very good staff and interesting menu!
Highly priced but worth the experience!
Made a reservation after proposing to my now fiancé. Fantastic food and service to mark the special occasion! Thanks to all the staff!
Good restaurant nice food, small portions ambience could be better if they did not allow babies in , after all it is not a tavern
