4.8 / 5.0(1,091 reviews)
We had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the location right by the seaside made it even more special. The service was excellent – friendly, attentive, and professional. Most importantly, the host was incredibly kind and hospitable, which made us feel truly at home. We enjoyed every dish we tried and would definitely come back again. Highly recommended! Best regards from Lithuania! Beautiful tavern with amazing sea views! Super friendly service, homemade traditional food, and delicious seafood dishes, you can really taste the love in the cooking. Totally recommend it, we’d come back again and again! This was one of the best dining experiences of my entire life and an absolute highlight to our big family trip in Crete. We ordered a bit of everything - mixed meat grill, mixed seafood plate, pizza, pasta, salads.. and every single dish was packed with flavour and balanced! The food was brilliant and yet the very best thing was the service! The waiters were so attentive but unpretentious. They knew exactly what we needed, they looked after our children and the adults so well. Thank you so much. I cannot fault this establishment for a single thing.
