I had a wonderful experience at this place. From the time I walked up, I felt very welcomed by the wait staff, Jerry. He made excellent recommendations and I had a fabulous dinner consisting of an appetizer of the bruschetta, the special chicken from the mountains, and the soufflé for dessert. I had the house red wine and house white wine as well. I highly recommend to anyone traveling through Chania and looking for an authentic and cozy experience. Thanks again Jerry!
Hidden gem!This place is a hidden gem in Crete!Lets start with the owner Jerry, what a helpful and true entrepeneur attitude. Takes every customer seriously and helped me out with everything. I can bet that this restaurant and hotel has one of Crete’s fastest wifi internet connections which allowed me to work with no problems during my workholiday at Crete. So if you are in need of good internet speed which is defienetly not a self evident at Crete GO HERE!Secondly, the food is AMAZING price-quality. They make amazing food with reasonable pricing which is also not a self evident. You get amazing grilled octopus with very reasonable price what you dont get in many places anymore even at Greece.They also have hotel next to restaurant which i recommend for exact same reasons that the restaurant. In this price range you dont get things like this in many places in Greece, super fast internet connection, amazing food and good rooms.Area calm but close to Chania, so you get fast to city if needed.Can nothing but recommend and will come soon again!
Great value for money. Fresh and delicious food and a warm, local inviting vibe. Go for catch of the day, Greek salad or chicken and you will be happy. Eat here several times during out stay here.
Such nice people, great prices, great quality of food. Mama came out and greeted us after she made all of our food. It was incredible! Our servers were fantastic and my husband said the Cretan chicken was one of the best dishes he’s had in Greece!
The food was absolutely delicious, could not fault one thing about the meal. We had garlic prawns and aubergine for starter which was perfect and so tasty. For mains we had the lamb Tsigariasto which was the best lamb stew I’ve ever had and we shared the most perfect Greek salad! The service was also 1000/10 very personable experience from start to finish. Highly recommend for authentic tasty home made food!
Very friendly staff, good food and decent prices! We went back twice as we really enjoyed the place. Seating is around a swimming pool with lots of options to be close or further away. Very good salads. We had the grilled octopus, prawns in garlic sauce and chicken from the mountain - all of these were very tasty. The two staff there were really nice and one of them remembered us when we returned the next day.
A good place where you can relax and enjoy a nice meal. Prices are standard, not to big, good food and enough choices. Staff it's friendly, and they let you enjoy without asking you every 5 minutes if you want something else.Also this place has a pool so the view it's great.
Superb lunch experience thanks to Jerry (one of the staff) and the meal was excellent. Not only were we treated superbly, we were also given a raki on the house along with fresh fruit and a story. Great!
