WELCOME to Blu Kouzina! Let us introduce you to our food philosophy:
All our plates are prepared with top quality, fresh ingredients using only our own cold pressed extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) from our more than a hundred years old olive groves in Greece.
We use no microwaves or freezers. Make our own bread and ground beef in our premises every day. We select the freshest fish from local fishermen daily. Maintain the highest hygiene
standards in our establishment.
Please ask to be taken for a tour so you can see for yourself that we stay true to what we believe:
