We have eaten here on four occasions now over two years, each visit has been great. We love the courtyard garden dining this restaurant offers it creates a very nice atmosphere and for us it's still nice even if the place is quiet. The owner has always greeted us warmly and explains the restaurant and menu very well. It's a... More

The best courgette fritters on the island. Wonderful terrace and the lovely service. We ate more than once and were never disappointed.

Nice ambient, but food is just reheated and served, we had several dishes and none seemed cooked during that same day... There are better restaurants around.

The best restaurant in Folegandros - excellent, inexpensive breakfasts and great service all day long. Try the octopus.

Pounta is a good choice to have a simple dinner in an amazing quiet garden off the crowds of the main squares in the chora of folegandros. The food is good but not the best one can have on the island. We reccommend the local (tuna?) fillet which was nicely cooked and tender and the fava (the yellow split bean... More

Got a quick breakfast and certainly confirming the major reviews about it....homemade food enjoyed in a unique internal garden. Not sure about lunch and dinner as they are different meals from my point of views. So i would probably try something different.

Folegandros is a gem, and there are lots of great places to eat in the Chora. Pounda is our family's choice for a peaceful meal in the garden. We love the stuffed tomatoes (my vote for best on the island), the slow-simmered goat, the zucchini fritters, and the pork fillet. Some folks seek the central squares for every meal, but... More

In a secret walled garden, you will have the chance of tasting some of the best local dishes, pies and of course the famous "matsata", home made pasta with tomatoe sauce, served with rabbit or goat meat.
