CYMA Greek Taverna in Boracay: Offering Authentic Greek Flavors
Boracay’s D’Mall is a bustling haven for beach foodies, offering everything from Japanese and Chinese to Italian and Filipino delights. But if you’re craving sunny Mediterranean flavors, one name rises above the rest—CYMA Greek Taverna.

The star of their menu is their Paidakia or char-grilled lamb ribs with Greek roasted potatoes. These gorgeous ribs might remind you of baby back ribs, but the rub says otherwise. It’s very earthy and savory, with the splash of lemon giving it that extra kick.

Another must-try is their Braised Lamb Shank—a slow-cooked masterpiece so tender the meat falls right off the bone. Served in a rich, herb-infused sauce with diced carrots and potatoes.

For health buffs, Roka Salatais is a bright Greek arugula salad, featuring peppery roka leaves tossed with a light lemon–olive oil dressing and typically accented with shaved Parmesan and crunchy walnuts. Refreshing and slightly tangy, it’s a perfect palate-cleanser or side for grilled meats and seafood.

Another crowd favorite is the Saganaki, CYMA Greek Taverna’s dramatic flaming cheese experience. Melted mozzarella and parmigiano reggiano arrive in a sizzling skillet, finished with a splash of brandy that ignites into a spectacular “Opa!” (Cheers!) moment.
For a gourmet twist, try the Saganaki with Figs, featuring fried kefalotiri cheese balanced by peppered fig jam—sweet, savory, and unforgettable.
Whether you’re in for a hearty meal after a day on White Beach or looking for a lively dinner with friends, CYMA Greek Taverna delivers a true taste of Greece with every bite.
