Best ambience. Venetian style, organic food and twisted Cretan versions of every classic cocktail. Must visit in Heraklion.

I went there a year ago and I still think of the sausages we ordered as an entree. By far the best sausage I’ve had ever. I’ll probably return to Crete to go there again

How can you beat amazing??? Delicious traditional Cretan cuisine with a gourmet twist! Σαρικοπιτα and ντακος is a must eat!

I felt that our dinner here was less enjoyable than when this place opened, 3 years ago. Food is still good and more creative than elsewhere but the place is always busy and lost its ambience.

Cretan modern food. Try kandavlos, fries with staka and other cretan plates

Amazing food and friendly service. Great treats and atmosphere! Totally recommended!

So much fuss for no reason in my opinion. Tasty food but nothing innovative or out of this world. The staff is friendly and attentive. On the downside we had to wait for 45' in order to be seated.
Bruno WozniakJuly 9, 2017
Every bit as good as the rate suggests. People rave about the meat but they have many vegetarian and few vegan dishes, clearly marked in the menu

Worth trying their bread and oil, for two people we got three loafs of bread (all different) - could have skipped the starter

Sensational cuisine, outstanding service. Arrive early at lunch to get a table.

Highly recommended. Delicious food & lovely service/staff!

The food is nice.we need it to wait for our main dishes for about 1h. When we asked,the response was that its grill meet and it delays. Also they charge us for bread that we never eat and never got.
