The summer season is in full swing. Mykonos is perhaps the demonstration of the desire to leave behind these problematic years of pandemic and start over. The beach clubs, the most exclusive clubs, and the luxury offer are precisely the basis of this desire for life. Making the island one of the most sought-after (and expensive) destinations in the summer of 2022.

So what are the news and confirmations of this year?

Saltbae Burger Mykonos – Mavrogenous Street – https://www.nusr-et.com.tr/default.aspx?lang=en-US – +302289 078638

Nusr Et doubles up in Mykonos with a burger shop in the heart of Mykonos, replacing the historic Familia restaurant. The prices are what you might expect from any other restaurant in Mykonos, although the menu includes all burgers. 

The quality of the products is very high, while the choice is still somewhat limited. It is worth a visit if you want to try something classic and out of the steaks typical of Greek cuisine.

To reach Saltbae, simply go along Matogianni and arrive at Kalogera Street. On the corner with Kopajos and Alpha Bank and go up past the Meating restaurant and immediately turn left.

Bagatelle – Fabrika Area – https://bagatelle.com/ – +302289 078792 – IG: @bagatellemykonos

The French Riviera lands in Mykonos. The environment is like an immersion in great attention to detail, surrounded by the vivid nature of the island and the sea as far as the eye can see. The sunset view is breathtaking, a valid alternative to the already famous 180 ° Bar.

As for the other restaurants or clubs in Mykonos, Bagatelle is also part of a famous chain in prestigious locations such as London, St. Tropez, St. Barth, and New York. The restaurant menu is signed by Chefs Rocco Seminara and Joseph Kahat, with a wide choice of fish, a little more restricted for meat, but an excellent selection of caviar. 

The dessert list deserves a separate mention; we suggest the chocolate pizza with caramel-coated walnuts, thin crepes with Sicilian pistachio cream, and baklavà ice cream.

Reservation is mandatory, and it is possible to proceed on the website in the “make a reservation” section. It is also possible to purchase the “sunset” package to enjoy one of the most evocative moments of the day with your friends.

Reaching Bagatelle is very simple: starting from the windmills of Mykonos. It is sufficient to take the road that develops along the coast. After about 300 meters, the restaurant will be on your left before taking the road that leads to Ornos.

Destino Pacha and Ftelia by Pacha 

The Pacha group from Ibiza doubles its offer. After Lio, in the center of the chora. This year is the turn of “Destino Mykonos” and the beach club “Ftelia by Pacha.”

https://destinopacha.com/mykonos/ – Agios Stefanos Area – IG @destinomykonos.

Destino Mykonos is located in Agios Stefanos, on the same side as Mykonos Town. It is a 34-room resort built following the canons of modern Cycladic architecture, which mixes white walls and local stone together with wood. Thus creating a play of shapes in respect of a renewed tradition, with new elements that fit well in context. It is also possible to access only the restaurant, from the morning for breakfast/brunch until dinner.

We advise you to look at the beautiful photos of the menu at this link : https://destinopacha.com/mykonos/dining and, at the same time, book a table. 

An ideal place also to have a drink together.

To reach Destino Mykonos is necessary to have a car or a motorbike because it is located at least 3km from the entrance of Mykonos town overlooking the port of Tourlos. Just follow the road, pass the cruise ship dock and continue north towards Agios Sostis.

The rowdy Ibiza has found a corner of paradise on Ftelia beach, adapting to the luxury that Mykonos beach clubs can offer. On the site, it is possible to view the events that will be held in the coming weeks and who will play live. It is a perfect place to spend a whole day there, until after sunset.

The restaurant offers a mix of Spanish and Greek cuisine, ensuring that the two shores of the Mediterranean meet in this original menu, with options of all kinds, including vegetarians and vegans.Reaching Ftelia is simple: starting from Mykonos Town, you have to take the road that leads to the village of Anomera and, before calling it, turn left following the road signs.

Byblos – https://www.byblosmykonos.com/ – Delou 1 – IG @byblosmykonos

Peruvian and Japanese cuisine meet in this fusion restaurant with a very scenic setting, an absolute novelty within the chora. It replaces the old store of the sunglasses brand Kopajos, expands into the next garden, and experiments with drinks, wines, and cocktails in an opulent style.

The menu is not recommended for vegetarians and vegans but contains some gluten-free choices in case of need. Meat and fish dishes of all kinds dominate, both in Peruvian forms, such as ceviche, and in the Japanese ones, with nigiri with highly sought-after combinations. 

The raw material is, in fact, of the highest level; just to increase your curiosity, we mention only the patanegro jamon and oysters.
