Our very favorite restaurant and experience in Crete. Beautiful atmosphere. Great service and great food. They also had traditional music and dancing. You need to make a reservation. We cannot recommend enough.

What a special place. The atmosphere here is something quite special. This family restaurant is just perfect . I have travel quite a bit and eaten in many places but this one has got to stand out for me. We visited on a Thursday night when they gave the Greek music and traditional dancers . So much fun and joining in with he dancers was quiet something. The food was perfectly cooked. The service from all of the team was wonderful and attentive. So impressive how they work. I’m in the food business and having my own place it’s always interesting to see how others do it. And this place is up there with the best. What a team!!! I would strongly advise booking WELL in advance especially if you want the music nights (like months before) there were so many people turned away and I overheard someone say they had booking since winter. So get in there quick because you will not regret it. I honestly only have good things to say about this place, and wish all the success for the future . Keep doing what you do it’s perfect.

The atmosphere was lively and authentic, with dancers in traditional costumes, accompanied by live music that made the experience truly special. The staff were very polite and always smiling, which added to the warm and welcoming vibe. The salads were big and fresh, and the portions overall were generous – perfect for sharing and enjoying with friends or family. Inside, part of the house has been turned into a small museum in traditional folk style, which gives the place a unique charm and cultural touch. The garden is also beautiful, with trees and fairy lights creating a cozy and romantic atmosphere.

Really nice place, with the best regional and original Cretan dishes. The Tzaziki is one of the best I've ever had! Live music on thursdays, and a really good mood during the evening. The waitresses are very nice and makes the evening complete. I would recommend this place to everyone.
