Excellent food and very people. Made us feel at home. A fun that we wish to repeat ✨️ Many thanks to the people at Parasia Tavern for a really memorable ❤️ There is a reason why the rate for this place is so high. One of the best restaurants I have ever visited. High level of service, the place serves and Rakumelo the second you are set to the table, next you will get a small dish with toasted bread, cheese and olives, and only then you're going to make the food order. The place is located in the perfect place within the perfect atmosphere. The food is so delicious, I suggest you'll come over when you're hungry, because the portions are really big. Don't miss it!!!! Was to try the place by a family member and it did not disappoint. We had such a tasty chicken salad (you must order!) along with some traditional fried cheese starter. the moussaka, big portion and very delicious. They were also very generous and gave us ice cream, grapes and (honey and normal) free of charge. Suggest finding out when they play live music, as its a lovely atmosphere. Overall a very traditional family run restaurant, and would definitely trying it if you're around! I found this tavern for lunch. I believe everything they cook is very, very good, not tonsay :). The menu is extensive and the portions generous so be careful of how much you order :))). Saying that.. fava, octopus in wine, veal stew, mousaka, grilled lamb, the white wine as their best. Ah, about to forgot the raki...be careful it is addictive :))) PS: Kostas took care of us in a way❤️. The house offered dessert is the best I had in the Greek islands. Absolutely delicious! We didn't book a table, but the staff was very accommodating and we had a time. We got recommended several dishes from the grill and greatly enjoyed the antikristos lamb and grilled chicken. The rakia was otherworldly, had to buy a few bottles from here as gifts! Ich war vor 2 Jahren bereits dort, damals wunderschön, heute leider sehr touristisch. Obwohl ich Griechin bin, wurden wir in die Touristen Gruppe gesetzt. Schade. Man muss mit Katzen rechnen ;) We visited this restaurant with friends on the last day of our stay, and it turned out to be the best one by far, outshining all the others! Every appetizer and main course was delicious, especially the recommended veal in tomato sauce. The meat was tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked. And the atmosphere... a beautiful restaurant with such a cozy, rustic vibe—truly one of a kind. The was the highlight, with amazing waitstaff who were 100% there for the customers. On top of that, the complimentary was delicious, and the desserts were too. If you're on Crete, I think this place is a must-visit! My family and I had a wonderful at this restaurant, returning more than once during our stay. The servers were incredibly friendly, making us feel like longtime friends, and the cozy, casual made each visit a joy. The food was delicious—highlights for us included the fried zucchini balls, smoked sausages, meatballs, braised lamb, and chicken schnitzel. While dessert is available to order, each meal ends with a complimentary treat of (the version is dangerously good), mini ice cream bars, and slices of chocolate and olive oil cake—a perfectly sweet ending to a meal. If you’re in the area, I highly a visit! Very welcoming environment and excellent service. The food is really like eating mommy’s food. Recipes are unique and fulfilling. Its also so beautiful to be welcomed with 2 bottles of raki. What a start to a meal. Enjoy. (kids and accessible) An absolutely wonderful ✨ the staff were so and attentive, making us feel so welcome. The live music added to the lively atmosphere, and the food was OUTSTANDING - fresh, authentic and delicious. Every detail made the evening special, definitely a must visit! I would not risking turning up on a Saturday night without a reservation as you may not get a table. Very enjoyable evening on Saturday. Brilliant live music and extremely welcoming waiters. Very food and reasonable prices. One of the best gastronomic experiences in Crete. The food was so that I didn't have time to take any pictures of it, one of the few places where the was top notch and the staff were attending to every small detail as we started dining. Definitely a must if you're looking for a gastronomie experience. Unexpectedly amazing. Everything was top. Food and and the tavern itself. The waiters were super and professional at the same time.

Nestled in a peaceful, authentic Cretan setting, this place offers not just a meal, but a true cultural experience. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed – especially by Kostas, who was truly the heart of the place. Friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the food and the tradition behind it – Kostas is simply the best! The food was outstanding. We tried a variety of dishes, and every single one was full of flavor and clearly made with love. The special salad with chicken was a standout – fresh, perfectly balanced, and surprisingly filling. It had the perfect mix of tender chicken, sweet honey, crisp greens and a light dressing that brought it all together. We also highly the slow-cooked lamb and traditional and perfectly executed. The was cozy and authentic. To finish, we were treated to a homemade dessert and a glass of – a thoughtful touch that made the whole even more memorable. If you're in Crete, Parasia Tavern is an absolute must. Incredible food, genuine hospitality, and a special shoutout to Kostas for making our night so memorable. We can't wait to come back! With love from Arkens Highly recommend. Amazing food, had the best octopus ever, along with other food. Very and careful staff, welcomed us with an amazing raki. They manage amazingly large tables. Πάρα πολύ ωραίο το φαγητό. Η εξυπηρέτηση είναι φανταστική. Ειδικά ο Κώστας είναι το καλύτερο παιδί. Ευχαριστούμε πολύ θα ξανάρθουμε. food, Cretan delicacies and prices. The staff was very and recommended many famous dishes such as lamb, ntakos, mushrooms ans staka. Very nice atmosphere, many free sweets to try at the end. One of the best places I’ve ever been in Greece! Our host in Kalyves recommended this place and we went for dinner yesterday. It was superb! We came in early with our two young kids and Kostas and Katherina could not be more accommodating. was fast, food was and fresh and we were surprised by the little desserts (on the house!). If you are in the neighborhood, do visit their restaurant. You will not be disappointed! Even our (sometimes disruptive) kids were met with a smile :). We absolutely love this restaurant! 🤩🥳 From the very beginning we were welcomed warmly and with so much kindness. After we sat down, we were immediately served a big cold bottle of water along with a small appetizer, such a start. The food is simply amazing: incredibly delicious, juicy, and tender. You can really taste the love and care put into every dish. My photos speak for themselves. I especially appreciated that the dishes were explained to us, and that they even asked about possible allergies. The appetizers were combined for us so we could try more, such a thoughtful touch. To finish off, there was a small but fine dessert selection, also very tasty and beautifully presented. A truly perfect experience😍✨ absolutely recommended!
