About Us
In October 2008 Transfer Beach Grill opened its doors, and since then Chef/Owner Georgios Liaros and his family have been serving food prepared with his favourite southern Greek island style using fresh seasonal local ingredients.
"I am grateful," concludes Georgios, "to be able to use my gifts and talents to serve so many people with my family every day. Although it is hard work running a restaurant, I feel privileged to be able to do so, and I hope people will keep coming to enjoy the food, the atmosphere and a glass of wine at Transfer Beach Grill!"
Chef Georgios (George) Liaros was born in Montreal, Quebec, in 1964 from parents Panayiotis (Peter) and Anastasia Liaros, who had emigrated to Canada from their native Greece a few years earlier.

In 1965, he went to live with his grandparents Georgios and Persephone Liaros on his father's native island Elafonissos near the most southern peninsula of mainland Greece. His grandparents had owned and operated a small eatery there since the early 1930s.
