City, Nea Chili or Makri: start with the location
For fish and seafood in Alexandroupoli, first decide whether you want to stay in town or make the meal part of a trip along the coast. Gialos on Apolloniados Street and Nisiotiko on Zarifi Street are the two city options in this guide. Thea Thalassa is in Nea Chili, while Ai Giorgis is farther out in Makri.
If your group is meeting from different places, agree on the location before choosing the restaurant. For Nea Chili or Makri, check the route and your return transport as part of the plan.

THE STOP 01
Gialos
fish meze and shared plates in the city
Gialos Seafood Taverna serves seafood, fish meze and appetisers at Apolloniados 26. It is a starting point when the plan is a table of dishes to share rather than everyone ordering the same main course.
Before deciding on the order, ask which seafood and fish are available that day and how large the portions are. A few shared appetisers and a fish order can make a different meal from a table built entirely around meze; check the options with the venue rather than assuming a fixed set menu.

THE STOP 02
Nisiotiko
fish, seafood and meze on Zarifi Street
Nisiotiko on Zarifi 1 is another city option, with fish, seafood and meze at the centre of its Parea listing. Keep it on the shortlist if you want a seafood-focused lunch or dinner without heading out to Nea Chili or Makri.
To choose between Nisiotiko and Gialos, compare their locations against where you are meeting, then check current availability and the menu directly. The useful question is which works for your meal today; this guide does not rank them by ratings or claim one has the better catch.

Thea Thalassa-Cavo
seafood by the beach in Nea Chili
Thea Thalassa-Cavo combines seafood and Greek dishes beside the beach in Nea Chili, at Kanari 1. It is the option here for making the beach setting part of lunch or dinner while staying closer to Alexandroupoli than Makri.
If a table by the sea is the reason for your visit, ask about the available seating when arranging it. A beachside location does not guarantee that a particular table will be free, and the current menu should guide what you order.

THE STOP 04
Ai Giorgis
a seaside taverna outing in Makri
Taverna Ai Giorgis is in the Ai Giorgis area of Makri, near Alexandroupoli. Its listed menu includes fish, seafood, Greek appetisers and meat dishes, making it worth considering when some of the group want seafood and others prefer meat.
This is the choice to plan as a trip to Makri rather than a meal in the city centre. Check directions before leaving and ask about the kitchen hours and a table for your group, particularly if you are travelling specifically for a fish meal.

What to ask before ordering fish and seafood
Ask whether the fish you are considering is priced per portion or by weight. For a fish sold by the kilo, confirm its weight, the price per kilo and the expected total before it is prepared. Ask separately what sides are included.
Check which dishes are available today, how they are prepared and whether they suit any allergies in your group. If that matters for your choice, ask whether an item is fresh or frozen. The venues above do not currently have verified menus linked in their Parea listings, so this guide does not quote specific dishes or prices.
