Been coming here for years now. That antikristo lamb still gets me every time - proper smoky, falls off the bone. Sitting by the water with the trees around you, it&#39;s just easy. Portions are big, you definitely won&#39;t leave hungry. Prices are alright too, considering what you&#39;re getting. Place gets busy though, so come early if you can.

Stopped by for a quick bite and honestly left pretty full. Got the moussaka, it was warm and comforting, felt like something homemade. Place wasn&#39;t too busy around 2pm, so it was chill. Service was fine, nothing crazy. Would come back if I&#39;m in the area again.

The waffles were crispy and fresh, made right in front of you. You can tell they put care into the batter. Nice little spot.

Stopped by for loukoumades after walking around the old town. The honey and walnuts on top were just right, not too sticky sweet. Dough was light, still warm when they brought it out. Place is small, more of a grab-and-go spot. Fine if you&#39;re craving something like that in Rethymno.

Decent Greek spot. Chicken souvlaki was juicy and the dips with warm bread hit the spot. Portions are generous. Bit busy but service moved fast.

Nice spot right on the beach&mdash;clean, quiet, and the sunbeds are free if you grab a drink. Cocktails were fair priced and the service was friendly. Good enough for a lazy afternoon.

Stopped here for a quick lunch and grabbed a sandwich. Bread was soft, veggies tasted really fresh. Nice to sit and look at the bay while eating. It&#39;s a little expensive for a simple sandwich, but the view kind of makes up for it. Would come back if I&#39;m in the area again.

The red snapper was spot on, and their local wine list pairs beautifully with the kalitsounia. Staff knew their stuff when I asked for a recommendation. Solid spot in Marathi.

We&#39;ve been coming here for years, and the pepper steak never disappoints. Staff still remembers us every single time. That view over the bay doesn&#39;t hurt either.

The mixed grill fish was really good&mdash;fresh and nicely charred. Owner&rsquo;s daughter kept checking on us, super sweet. Felt like eating at someone&rsquo;s home, honestly.

Stopped by for a drink, sun was golden and the water looked clean. Plenty of parking, no hassle finding a spot. Sunbeds were there too, which was nice. Decent spot to kill an afternoon, nothing fancy but does the job. Maybe a bit crowded later on, but we went early and it was fine.

Nice spot for an evening drink. Aperol Spritz was done right, not too sweet. Gets crowded but that&#39;s part of the vibe.

The grilled octopus was the only thing I cared about. Tender, smoky, just enough salt. Ate it slow, didn&#39;t want it to end. The rest of the plate was whatever, but that octopus did the job. Portion could be bigger for the price, but I&#39;d come back just for that one dish.

The mushroom orzo was a nice surprise &mdash; glad they label the vegan options clearly. Charming spot, though the local cats definitely steal the show 😄

Been coming here for years and the food never drops in quality. Last time they let us order smaller portions to try extra dishes, which I still appreciate. That olive oil they serve is something else.

Great spot to sit with a coffee and watch the Fortezza from above. Calm enough to get some work done too. Wish I&#39;d found it earlier in my trip.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Pizza was solid, came out hot from the wood-fired oven. Place has a chill vibe, fine for a fast bite. Service was polite but a bit slow &mdash; had to wait longer than I hoped. Still, decent spot if you&#39;re not in a huge rush.
