Great place and must visit! The stifado, a hearty Greek beef stew, was rich and flavorful. The moussaka, a classic layered dish with eggplant and ground meat, was comforting and well-prepared. Both dishes were enjoyed in a serene garden under olive trees, creating a relaxing and authentic Cretan dining experience. Starters: delicious aubergine with lamb and vine leaves, amazing appetizer from the restaurant: beetroot salad as well as dessert: bunch of super sweet grapes and watermelon! If we are back in Sissi, we will be back here.
Wonderful local place. Very good food, excellent service. Highly recommended
Everything we had tasted amazing - the tzatziki, moussaka, stifado. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting under olive trees, and of course the amazing service!
This was the lunch venue of our Quad Bike Tour, food was excellent as well as the drinks, service and hospitality were also excellent. Will definitely be back.
Popped in and had lovely pork skewers which were tasty and tender. Fresh salad and fries, with water and a coke, all ate under olive boughs in the garden.
Wonderful place with delicious native Greek food, today even with smooth live music. We will come more often
The stifado and moussaka were delightful in our tranquil Cretan village setting. The complimentary bread and beetroot starter were a pleasant surprise, and the white grapes were the best we've ever tasted. We were particularly impressed by the generous portion of moussaka. The entire experience, nestled in a garden under olive trees, was incredibly relaxing. If we ever return to Sissi, we'll definitely be back to this charming spot.
A short walk out of Sissi but glad we did.Food and service good.Traditional greek taverna. Prices reasonable .
