To Souvlaki tou Dimitri Stin A.E.K. KYTHRAIAS

Tucked beside the AEK Kythreas football club grounds in Aglantzia, Το Σουβλάκι του Δημήτρη is a neighbourhood grill house built around charcoal-cooked meat. Regulars praise the juicy pork souvlaki, tender chicken thighs, grilled lamb chops and pork belly strips, plus a standout grilled liver, served meze-style so the meat, not side dishes, takes centre stage. Reviewers repeatedly call it among the best souvlaki or grilled chicken in Nicosia, and single out generous portions, attentive service and reasonable prices.

Ample on-site parking makes it an easy stop, and the team also welcomes bookings for parties and group gatherings, plus offers delivery for those who prefer to eat at home. With a 4.6 rating from 80 Google reviews, it has built a loyal following even though, as some diners admit, the modest setting doesn't look promising at first glance. A solid choice for straightforward, well-executed Cypriot grill fare.
