The Big Bad Wolf in full
The Big Bad Wolf is a family grill taverna at Koukounaries serving Greek and Mediterranean food, steaks, grilled meats and seafood under the trees, with a Greek wine list. Lamb kleftiko, moussaka and souvlaki are the repeatedly recommended dishes.
Two warnings come up often enough to pass on. Multiple reviews flag an unannounced bread-and-olives cover charge of around €5.70 appearing on the bill, and at least one alleges microwave reheating.
Pricing sits above the Koukounaries average. The food is well regarded when it lands; go in knowing about the cover charge and ask before it arrives if you would rather not have it.
