People have shared their trusted secrets when eating abroad after a group of brits were charged €350 for four drinks.
A user named Ashley took to TripAdvisor to leave a one star review for DK Oyster, a restaurant in Mykonos. She called the place a "joke" and urged travellers to "save their euros" after being charged a staggering €350 for four drinks - equating to €87.50 per drink.
She wrote: "Wish we looked at the reviews before! This place is a joke! 350 euros for 4 drinks!! I would definitely NOT recommend going here. Please save your euros!!"

But the restaurant hit back as they replied asking the customer to "clarify their reason for disappointment". They said that the prices were correct so couldn't understand what the problem was.
They wrote: "Thank you for taking the time to post your review, but could you please clarify the exact reason of your disappointment? The prices you mention sound correct, so I would like to understand what the problem was. The drinks were not what you expected, the setting or the service? Your opinion is important to us. So, we would appreciate it if you would take a few minutes to clarify."
The restaurant also responded to a second review bashing the prices as a customer was charged €98 for a plate of calamari and €58 per cocktail. The visitor wrote: "Day light robbery!! These people think they can charge €98 for a plate of calamari and €58 per cocktail.
"I was quite happy to pay €58 for a decent sized cocktail given the sun loungers were free to use. Funnily enough they never told me before ordering food that the calamari was €19 per 100g.
"When asking for the bill I discovered that for 1 cocktail and 1 plate of calamari the total bill was €150 … Places like this need shutting down, disgusting."
But again, the business owner hit back as they defended their high prices. They said: "Thank you for taking the time to explain the reasons of your negative review. We think that 98 euros for a dish of calamari is fair.
"If you were happy to pay 58 euros for a cocktail, why are you surprised by the 98 euros for such a rare and exquisitely fresh delicacy that you can find nowhere else at this quality? Nevertheless, I am truly sorry for your disappointment."
ECHO readers took to the comments section after reading about the Brits in Greece and shared their own advice and thoughts.
Jeff Wilson said: "Tip on eating abroad. Eat with the locals. I do, and have a lot more fun."
Norbert Nagy said: "There's is always a rule... ask for a Menu and check the price... if you can't afford or it is expensive, move somewhere else."
Simon Boyd said: "How could they look at the menu, order drinks and not see the price. We've stayed in the hotel next door, and literally no one was in that restaurant. Every other bar and restaurant along the beach was busy, except this one because its so expensive. So just don't order any drinks and choose a different bar!"
