I’d say this restaurant blends a traditional Greek taverna with a dash of modern style. All the food was really tasty, and we tried a variety of dishes. My favorite were cannelloni, they were amazing! The staff were young, polite, cheerful, and attentive, and the whole place has a warm, welcoming vibe. After dinner they treated us to raki and loukoum, as is customary in traditional Greek tavernas. I’d absolutely come again, full recommendation from me. ☺️ What a great little place just off the beaten path. I arrived here late on a calm Thursday night and I was welcomed with a smile and a well cared for set of menus. Everything looked so good, I had a hard time narrowing it down to the tasty cod and a delicious prosciutto salad topped with blue cheese. My hunger was satisfied and my tummy was full. I would definitely return here on my next trip. For me, this is the best restaurant in the city of Heraklion. The dishes are perfectly balanced and taste fantastic! The restaurant itself has a great atmosphere and the team are very attentive and create a wonderful vibe! I highly recommend trying one or two starters, especially the aubergine, which comes highly recommended!

Nice cozy homey Greek food place. The food was made with fresh produce. The waiter was so nice and fun and the vibe was great. It’s an affordable place to try local food. The flavor was on the lighter side and not too heavy which was exactly what we liked. Had great choices for pescatarians. We also tried the house wine and it’s very smooth.

Amazing dinner with delicious food, welcoming and helpful staff. We did not have a reservation, but they found us a table. We started with a spicy perek-pie, followed by crunchy porcceta with carob sauce and skioufikta, cretan pasta with smoked pork and sun-dried tomatoes. The dessert was absolutely fantastic!
