Best place in rhodes
since 1984
Billy’s Place was founded in 1984 by brothers Stergos and Stathis Katinas, who named it in honor of their father, Billy—a man remembered for his warmth, kindness, and generosity. Billy had a rare gift for making everyone feel welcome, treating both friends and strangers with the same heartfelt hospitality.
Although Stergos and Stathis built Billy’s Place from the ground up, they carried their father’s spirit into every part of it. Just like Billy, they believed in creating a space where every guest—whether a local or a traveler—feels part of something meaningful. At Billy’s Place, it’s never just about food and drinks. It’s about tradition, friendship, and unforgettable moments shared around the table.
Owner Stergos Katinas
Stergos Katinas has been the heart of Billy’s Place since 1984. Raised in the warm glow of his father Billy’s hospitality, he learned early on that great food means little without kindness, care, and a welcoming smile. Those values became his own—and to this day, he carries his father’s legacy forward with pride.
Under Stergos’s quiet leadership, what began as a small family taverna slowly grew into a cherished meeting point in Tholos. Generations of guests have returned year after year—not just for the food, but for the feeling of coming home. Many who visited as children now bring their own families, continuing a tradition rooted in connection.
You’ll still find Stergos where he’s always been: checking in on tables, sharing stories with familiar faces, and making sure every guest feels like family. For him, Billy’s Place is more than a restaurant—it’s a way of life.
