Family-run To Marathovouniotiko Souvlaki is on Kyrenias Avenue in Aglantzia, Nicosia. The kitchen grills pork and chicken souvlaki and sheftalia, Cypriot sausages, over charcoal. Order a mixed portion to try pork souvlaki and sheftalia together. The grill serves them with chips and fresh tomato, cucumber, cabbage and herbs.

Local guides also mention plant-based gyros and sheftalia. Ask whether they are available and how long they take when you order. You can take a filled pitta to go.
