There is also a playground for children. High chair for baby available as well. Our 2,5 years old daughter loved the toast with ham and cheese and special omlette. The food was amazing. The greek salad was made with tasty tomatoes 🍅 and other very good ingredients. The chicken slouvaki was perfect, fresh chicken meat, perfect. So far from the industrial chicken meat from western European restaurants. The food was amazing, the cherry on the top was an on the mountains and sunset. The owner is very friendly. Real local Cretan food and incredible views of the mountains around. Very family running the restaurant and good quantities in every dish. I recommend the mixed grill for two and the orange pie (wow, that one is out of this world!) Nos ha encantado la comida, estaba todo buenísimo. El trato ha sido atento y amable, y nos han regalado un postre riquísimo. Very nice location with a stunning over the mountains. The food is barely hand made and very good, especially if you like meat. Huge portions and a very gentle service you will find here for a small price. 100% recommendation. Incredible food (we still think about those aubergines), with a stunning and warm hospitality. The best meal we had in a week’s holiday in Crete. Hier ist absolut nichts selbst gemacht. Tsaziki und Tirokafteri sind aus Packung, das gegrillte Gemüse ist praktisch roh, bifteki ist ein fertiges Burger Patty… ich kann ewig so weiter machen. Man hat zumindest reagiert und uns den Preis zweier Hauptgerichte erlassen. Immerhin. So etwas habe ich in meinem Heimatland noch nie erlebt. location, tasty food and extremely friendly staff. We had so much food and in the end we had the free dessert which was amazing. We loved it so much so we asked for another but as an order so pay for it. They wanted to give this for free however we convinced them that we will pay. We also received the recipe for it, so I can make it. So lady, wrote it down. :) Very nice food, in good prices, freshly made. Definitely reccomend visit here! Usually come here during the day for the views which are spectacular but last night visited after dark for dinner. Unlike many of the coastal tavernas it wasn't crowded and had a peaceful atmosphere. The food was Greek but a little different, served beautifully on tables with white linen tablecloths. The flavours were great, the krassi wine lovely & the service attentive but not intrusive. Would certainly recommend. Came here after a long, hot day visiting monasteries and the Preveli beach. The staff was very friendly and welcoming (and so were the kitty cats) and the tavern was nice and cool outside. The food was well-cooked and served at good pace. Very tasty. What really makes this tavern stand out though is the on the hills. It’s breathtaking, especially around sunset. Those views made an already enjoyable dinner downright magical. local food! Nice people / family we will come back for sure. Had dinner for a lot less money then alot of other spots! and the women was so kind. It was really calm ( early dinner ) One of the best restaurants in Crete. You need to taste Apakia, Saganaki, Spicy Cheese Spread. Instead of french fries (which are great!) you should definitely take home made bread. From all restaurants only 7seas can be comparable. Breathtaking on mountains is a nice cherry on top. Definitely recommend this place. Perfect food, a beautiful and a natural setting, with very, very friendly staff. Special greetings to the young man of Greek-Albanian origin from the guests from Belgrade Awesome meal. Four of us enjoyed lunch a couple days ago and it was wonderful. We ordered a kilo of lamb chops served with French fries, boiled greens (try them!), tzatziki with toasted pita, Greek salad, and fried zucchini chips. Service was perfect and the views were the best. Prices are very affordable. And they served a complimentary dessert (orange cake infused with honey plus ice cream!). Best ever experience! Unplanned dinner...., stopped off on the way home. Beautiful restaurant....., stunning mountain views...., was the best salad I have had in my life. Very and welcoming owners ....., we loved it so much, we went twice and travelled an hour to go back on our last night in Crete. And the cats were company too 😆. Thank you xx An place we’ve met while driving to Frangocastello. Big portions of food, it’s so simple — but fresh and wonderful taste. So people here, smiling and careful. Much thanks, especially for the recipe of orange pie dessert ❤️ Όλα υπέροχα....σας το συστίνω χωρίς δεύτερη σκέψη... Unplanned road stop to this lovely restaurant. The owners were incredibly and the food was so fresh and home cooked. The mixed grill was massive for 2 people and everything served was delicious. Highly recommend a stop if your travels take you this way. We stumbled upon this beautiful restaurant in search of a quality, reasonably priced spot and boy did we hit the jackpot. This play is set on a gorgeous terrance and is the perfect spot for a relaxing meal with a view. The staff is friendly, the food is more than reasonably priced for the amount you get. They made us feel incredibly welcome and the overall atmosphere is warm and homey. The food was also 10/10, very authentic and made fresh to serve. This place is beautiful. The host and his wife are very nice and polite, and the food is delicious. I recommend first to order tzatziki with pita and for the main dish, take whatever (I didn't get to take a picture, it was great), and at the end, you must try orange pie.
