Such a nice family

Went on a stormy day and there were a few drops and big puddles in the gazebo. Wine was not bad. Food could have been fresher and bones isn’t he fried fish. The service and hospitality was excellent. Two servings of raki and complimentary cake...and they arranged a taxi for us.More

The BEST restaurant in panormos!

The place to be... Cretan atmosphere, delicious and various menu, amazing hospitality and the best of service! Manoli's raki is the best cure against everything. Made with much love and meraki. I suggest it to everyone who comes in rethymno, make a stop here and...have an unforgettable and tasty experience! Ps. I love the kolokythanthous, i could eat them every day!More

A taverna that is way above what you’d expect.

Visited this delicious taverna 3 times. Each time was a joy. Even though this is a taverna, not a restaurant the dishes were way above what you’d might expect at a road side taverna. Presentation, quality and preparation were staggering. Service was a delight. They...were eager to share details about the food and drinks. They have a nice selection of traditional Cretan food, wine and beers. Can highly recommend the tomatoes fritters and the melitzano salata (dip of roasted eggplant) which was very light and creamy (they told me they added a bit of yoghurt instead of the traditional tahini). Beet and Roka salad came with delicious caramelised nuts. Dolmades were made with zucchini, eggplant and tomatoes. Octopus was succulent etc etc. Really you can’t go wrong, everything was mouth-watering. Prices for the quality is ridiculous low.More

Lovely food and friendly staff and a very nice atmosphere. We went twice and husband said it was the best moussaka. I had a lamb in wine sauce the second time we went and it was fabulous. Also very reasonable prices.
