About
Karavi means Journey: a journey to the Mediterranean and Cretan flavors, with gourmet experimentations and insular mood. Karavi Café bar Restaurant, has "anchored" in an idyllic location, literally on the seafront, and a breath away from the cosmopolitan center of Hersonissos. The venue is fond of the insular decoration, the white color and the interchanges with the light blue. Find your favorite corner either on the deck with its luxurious daybeds, or in the comfortable armchairs or even, under the shade of tamarisks, at the small traditional fishing boats which were turned into comfortable sofas for endless bohemian moments. Karavi is open in the mornings to offer coffee, fresh juices and hearty snacks for those looking for a relaxed, cool corner on the seafront. In the afternoon, as the horizon is painted with the colors of the sunset, Karavi sails for wonderfully tasty journeys: try gourmet dishes of Cretan and Mediterranean cuisine, hearty salads and tempting desserts escorted by your favorite wine from a rich wine list, in an environment where insular elegance meets its peak. To close an ideal evening, our mixologist prepares fresh cocktails with fresh fruit and imaginative combinations. Karavi Café bar Restaurant is a sophisticated, dreamy setting where elegance meets romance, for your most beautiful moments and most special events. Ready to board "Karavi"?

Staying in the Star Beach hotel and found this delightful "tavern" partly by review here and partly by several recommendations. Athough the name of the place suggests "cafe" it's full on great food in a lovely restaurant for me. From the moment we entered, Giorgios was on hand with his amazing care and attention. During both of our visits, he was kind, caring and went above and beyond in my opinion. Several times recommending (correctly in my view) different choices over more expensive lobster alone. Other notables were Liza, a lovely and attentive young girl around 18.... who spoke perfect Russian to my wife... along with her other 7 languages!!! Julie was also attentive and kind. We loved every moment here. Wish we found it sooner in our holiday!

We sat at the seaside with a wonderful view. All the waiters were very friendly a d professional. We got good advises according to what to choose from the menu. The food was delicious, although the chicken was a bit dry due to overbaking. The best fries in the country! One recommendation to the staff: Try to limit the amount of waiters per table, six is too many.

The staff were quite simply some of the best we’ve ever encountered & became friends with them instantly, spending every lunchtime here all day ... a special mention to Marina who made our whole holiday extra special! ... and even filmed our engagement! The food was excellent & are very big portions (again with thanks to Marina who doesn’t like waste & tells you when you over order, which is very refreshing, especially in times like this!) Our favourite Greek starter is prawn saganaki & after eating it on nearly every Greek island there is (& in several different restaurants in Koutouloufari) this was the BEST! Cocktails are all freshly made by people who clearly enjoy their job, with all the banter & laughs to go with it. Once you have eaten all the amazing food & drank delicious rosè with the sea as a view, you can head opposite to use their free, chilled, comfy & clean pool. I cannot compliment Karavi enough ... thank you for having us, you truely made our holiday!

We had a lovely lunch here early on in our 10 day holiday to Crete, I had the mixed seafood for 1 and my partner had the lamb both cooked well and tasty. We enjoyed it so much we decided to choose to eat here again on our final evening. We were so disappointed, it was very quiet but service was very slow. I had pork fillet which was over cooked and tasteless. My partner had beef masala which was cooked well but had no flavour at all. The vegetables that came with our mains were very cold. We told several of the waiters that we were disappointed with the food but we just got a sorry and here's the 76 euro bill. It is very overpriced for what it delivers, the first meal was nice but have been really put off by the poor return visit and service.

Had a meal out of our all inclusive resort today and we weren't disappointed. Marina was very attentive, polite and helpful - customer service means alot. We ordered starters and mains, but then got given complimentary creme caramel pudding and chocolate tequila shots. The views are to die for. Kids were entertained with colouring. Portions were massive. I would definitely recommend and revisit.

Beautiful relaxing restaurant based on a cliff side with gorgeous views of the sea! The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming. The food was delicious, I got the lamb chops and my boyfriend got the ribeye steak, both cooked to perfection. The drinks menu is great, cocktails are fantastic. I requested a birthday surprise for my boyfriend and they baked us a freshly cooked birthday cake with very short notice! The staff really so go above and beyond. I can’t fault this restaurant at all, 5 stars!!

I’ve just returned from Crete, and we went to the Karavi restaurant on our final night. It was perfect. The views are absolutely stunning, we went at 7pm so we were there for the duration of the sunset into the night and it was all perfect. The interiors and aesthetics are impeccable, it’s a stunning restaurant. All staff were very lovely and helpful, my partner wanted his meal changed slightly and they accommodated that for him even though they thought they couldn’t. Food was brill with a large variety. I would highly recommend. The location is also fab in terms of being close to shops and other bars etc.

We visited this restaurant on our wedding anniversary trip in Greece. It was absolutely perfect! The food was amazing, but the best part was the staff. The waitress that took care of our table, was so very nice and helpful, that we will for sure rembember her and the restaurant for a long time. Perfect restaurant for a romantic evening or a family lunch.

Phenomenal find. We booked a sea front table for the sunset which was amazing views (if you have long hair bring a clip or bobble as it can be a touch windy) we ordered a few starters between us which were HUGE portions (and we can eat!) and then a main pasta each which was again mammoth size. Food was delicious and service was attentive without being overbearing. Perfect balance. Prices were very cheap for quality and portion size. Would 100% recommend!

Family group of 12 people from age 13 upwards. Huge selection of drinks, smoothies, shakes and cocktails. Wide ranging menu so definitely something for everyone. Very welcoming and friendly staff (Marina) prompt service and great food! Opted to sit in a boat that had been transformed into a booth, overlooking the sea. Whilst eating we spotted turtles swimming just off the beach and some of our group took the steps down to the beach and had a quick dip between courses!

We visited Karavi on 13th Aug 20. This is an excellent restaurant in a beautiful setting. Highly recommend booking and requesting a table on the terrace over looking the sea. Protective measures for Covid were impeccable and the staff were incredibly helpful, friendly, and attentive. A big shout out to Georgiou who was fantastic. The food was really v good. There were three of us and we had grilled octopus (fabulous!), stuffed mushrooms, baked haloumi, steak, stuffed dorade, strawberry salmon. All the dishes were well presented and delicious. We were advised on the wines to pair with the food and we were not disappointed. Overall, thoroughly recommended!

The place is absolutely stunning! It is very romantic and relaxing, right on top of the sea. The view is amazing, the staff makes you feel really welcome and the food was mouth-wagering! We ate saganaki cheese with rose sauce and feta with honey for starters and strawberry salmon and chicken filet with parmesan for our main course. Totally recommend!

Due to the very good reviews we went to eat on our last day of our holiday here. We were not disappointed in any way. On the one hand, the location is priceless, right by the sea with a mega view and the sea still brings a nice background music. The food was first class, we took the No. 50 Italian pizza and the No. 55 Gyros. During the holiday we ate gyros a few times and none was as good as this. The pizza also left behind all the pizzas that were perceived as good. The service was a dream. We ordered a bottle of wine and a bottle of water. The waiters were always very attentive and refilled our glasses. When it became a bit difficult to cut the pizza, another knife was immediately obtained without question. The waiters were always very attentive without making you feel uncomfortable. We have never had such a service in Germany! The restaurant we would have liked to give 6 out of 5 stars.
