The soul of our cuisine

Nikolaos Pappas

Nikolaos, or simply Nikos, is the heart and soul of the restaurant. A native Greek with a passion for authentic cuisine, he prides himself on quality ingredients and traditional recipes. Every dish passes through his hands - he prepares everything himself, without compromise and with the utmost care.

He spends most of his time in the kitchen, but when he is among the guests, it is clear that gastronomy is not only his job, but also his life's mission.

As he likes to say:
"Food is like love. Love needs spices and food needs herbs."

Nikos cooks, we bring...

Your review

The service was friendly, even without a reservation they found a place for us. The food was really delicious. We had the Meat Mix for two, but I think it would have fed more people and we were glad we skipped the appetizer this time, I wanted to try the dessert, but after the main course I didn't have a chance to eat anything else.

Kristýna Drábková

After today's visit, which was the first, I can't help but say that you have become the number one restaurant for me at the moment. Beautiful cosy, minimalist and clean environment, friendly service and last but not least delicious cuisine. I have been looking for something like this for a long time, something where I could go to eat sea creatures and you have brought it to me in the form of your restaurant, I don't have to go to Prague because of this. I couldn't help myself and had to have two starters, namely the bream carpaccio and the octopus tentacle, both perfect. For the main course, I had a plate of calamari and prawns. I can't help but thank you and look forward to another visit to your wonderful restaurant

Irina March

The reviews were right. Excellent authentic food, perfect, friendly and smiling service and pleasant atmosphere.

Zdenka Krumphanzlova

Starters, main courses octopus, minced steak with Feta,fish mix for two,all absolutely delicious, all it lacked was sitting by the sea. Great taverna with great cuisine. I recommend it.

Michal Šálek

I booked a table for four (better do it a few days in advance) and the experience of Nikos' Greek taverna in the centre of Liberec was well worth the 200 km journey. The setting of a folk Greek taverna, the great and well prepared food and traditional drinks will take you back to Greece for a holiday. The service is attentive and exemplary. I just missed a bit of Greek but you have to enjoy it in Greece and its islands.

Milan Záruba

Classic Greek restaurant in the centre of Liberec. Upon entering I was captivated by the typically Greek atmosphere, music, cleanliness and friendly service. The food and drinks were excellent, a great experience, immediately brought back memories of my summer holiday on one of the Greek islands.

KALI MERA, hello!

We would like to reveal to you the secrets of Greek cuisine, more precisely, the Greek culinary art, which has a four thousand year old tradition ...

Greeks love to enjoy life, food and drink is one of the foundations of their existence, they like to meet friends and eat in restaurants very regularly. Greek cuisine is one of the best in the world ...

The Mediterranean climate allows for the cultivation of many agricultural crops, so Greeks are keen on fresh ingredients. The most characteristic and oldest ingredient is olive oil, which is present in almost every dish. Olives (the most famous are the black olives of Kalamata), tomatoes, peppers, aubergines, courgettes, onions, potatoes and green beans are also widely used. It is seasoned with a variety of herbs, perhaps the most typical being oregano, thyme, rosemary, bay leaf, cinnamon, allspice and mint.

Our goal is for you to taste a little bit of Greece at MASA BUKA Greek Taverna. In addition to authentic Greek home-made dishes, we will try to create a true Greek atmosphere with Greek music... And why the name MASA BUKA Tavern and what does it actually mean? When a Greek eats a good meal in Greece, he or she will popularly say: " ... that was some masa buka." Which means you are well and fully fed. This phrase comes from the words Masao - I chewed and Bukosa - I stuffed myself (filled up).

The chef and owner of MASA BUKA Taverna is NIKOS PAPPAS, he is a native Greek and his ambition is to show you what a true Greek home-cooked meal should look like and how healthy it is. The Greek home-cooked meals he cooks are based on fresh ingredients and a significant amount of vegetables, herbs, spices and olive oil. He therefore takes great care to select quality ingredients. He uses extra virgin olive oil for salads and cooking. For reasons of authenticity and quality, all meals are cooked and prepared for you every day by the owner Nikolaos himself as the only chef. For the same reason, our opening hours are somewhat limited.

And what does the word TAVERN mean ? In Greek, taverna means something like in Czech a pub, a tavern, in short nothing official. That is why in our taverna it is no different and we would like you to come and sit with us in peace and quiet and really enjoy your meal. Since we cook from fresh ingredients and not from prepared semi-finished products, sometimes the preparation time is longer, but the freshness and quality of the prepared dishes will certainly make up for it. Sometimes it may happen that some dishes are already sold out on a given day.

The Greek recipes on our menu come mostly from the islands and mainland of Greece. Some recipes will also introduce you to modern Greek cuisine.

Every week we will also prepare special meal offers for you. You can also choose from our special menu. From this menu you will be able to order other dishes than those on the daily menu the day before.

We are honored to wish you a good taste
