We had 2 evenings here and had a great time each night.Excellent service made to feel like a local .The food, both Fish and local dishes are superb.Good value to boot. All fresh locally sourced , yes you can tell! The atmosphere is fabulous too, the way it curves around the village square , well lit but not garish.Looks and feels ,and tastes like a Taverna should be .Weekends there is live music in the square so all 3 village venues benefit from this.Worth a repeat visit any evening .

Love this place and have visited it several times during the day over the past few years and always enjoyed looking at what can only be described as the art of the place. Eaten there numerous times and always had excellent authentic Greek food. This time we visited on an evening and it did not fail. As always, excellent food and the atmosphere there on a night is marvellous

Whilst in Crete I visited The Cretan Corner. The first thing to notice is the fantastic view of the Mountains in the distance, the second thing is the warm welcome from the lovely staff! Finally the food,,,,,,,,,, oh the food! Wow! I'll try to do my visit justice , but forgive me if I go on a little !!! Right,,, here goes, our group of 4 were seated outside at a perfect table overlooking the Mountains, the waiter (Freddy) brought us complimentary bottled water, some fresh bread and some local olive oil, oh and of course some menus. After a while we chose our food from the menu which was in both Greek and perfect English for us lesser travelled few! :-)
I chose the chicken Souvlaki with aromatic rice, an Alfa Beer too. Do you know I can't remember what everyone had because ,,,, OMG!!!! It was absolutely delicious! Succulent chicken, light fragrant rice washed down with a cold beer. Life just doesn't get better than this! Great food, great scenery, great ambience and great company.
Upon finishing my meal and Freddy kindly cleared the table he then brought out a small bottle and 4 shot glasses, RAKI !!! Local brew, and by crikey it's got a kick! Really nice to finish off your meal.
Do you know another thing that I find great is that you never feel rushed, you can relax , have a chat, admire the surroundings and not feel at rushed.
I would highly recommend The Cretan Corner to anyone who is lucky enough to visit Crete, thank you for making my stay that little bit nicer!

Called in late afternoon when it was very quiet but most of the seaside tables were booked for later arrivals.
Service was very good. We shared the cod in tempura batter,sardines and a half Greek salad. Absolutely delicious. Finished with a complimentary melon and grapes.
Very enjoyable late afternoon by the sea.

You will need to book on a Saturday or Sunday.The food is all made by the owner's mother and is really delicious.Try the cheese pies or stuffed pepper.The beef stifado and rabbit stifado are fantastic.Free raki and dessert and all at a very reasonable price.You will sit under the shady vines and flowers for the setting.

Reviewed By PuddyCat99 - Holmfirth
We were looking forward to eating here, as the restaurant was highly rated on trip advisor. What a disappointment. The courgette fritters to start were fine. The beef stifado was poor; served on a pile of under-cooked chips ( I would have preferred Greek oven roasted potatoes but wasn't given a choice), the sauce, which should have been rich and tomato flavoured was thin , watery and lacked in flavour. Overall , a very unappetising plate of food. Not sure how it earned its high rating.
7. Icarus

Reviewed By wpdesousa-mauk - Cape Cod, MA
We stayed in Gavalochori, just up the hill from Almyrida, a popular beach town. The main street is backed by many tavernas and restaurants. We were fortunate that someone told us about Icarus. It certainly exceeded his recommendation!
Godan was the primary person working tables and front of house. He was friendly and helpful in recommending food to us (and we ate there quite a few times). Great ice cold beer, tables directly on a deck on the beach and amazing food! Everything we ate there was fantastic — Greek salad, youvetsi, meatballs, lamb sealed in parchment, bean purée, house platter, loukaniko, all amazing and delicious.
Prices were quite reasonable for such terrific food and the beer was delicious and always ICE cold! Also, lounges on the beach for dining patrons was a nice perk!
I am happy to wholeheartedly recommend Icarus Taverna as likely being one of — if not THE — top taverna in Almyrida!
8. Una faccia Una razza
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 124 reviews
"Una faccia una razza" risto-bar is a small corner of Italy in Crete. It is run by a young Italian couple, Giulia and Matteo, who will make sure you have enjoyable moments in a cosy and friendly atmosphere, savoring authentic Italian dishes or simply sipping a good glass of Italian wine. The specialty is fresh homemade pasta, made according to traditional Italian recipes and served with wholesome sauces, which are made daily. On the "Specials" board, which changes every day, you can choose among delicious pasta dishes, Italian style meat dishes, risottos and mouth-watering homemade desserts. All dishes are prepared and cooked upon order, using high-quality Italian products, therefore maintaining the real Italian cooking style. A perfect change from Greek food!

From the moment we arrived to the time we left, we were well taken care of and well fed. The waitress took the time to explain all the daily specials in details. Everything we ordered was simply delicious. The tiramisu we had for dessert was particularly tasty and in retrospect, we should have shared one given how large it was. The restaurant is located past the main square if you're coming from Almyrida. It's on the main road but it's quite cosy given there is not much traffic (at least when we were there). If you're staying in the Plaka area and are in the mood for great Italian food, definitely try this place. Highly, highly recommended for the great food and service.

A wonderful Taverna at the beachside in Kalives Crete. Although known for their great pizzas, the owners, Giorgos and Stella, provide some of the best food available along with a friendly Devil may care attitude to whatever anyone might want to get up to. Lots of fun all year round. Come join us!
Reviewed By Dominika M - Waterford, Ireland
We enjoyed the food in this place, especially the II Forno salad which is absolutely huge, so if you're having it as a starter, make sure you know it's big enough for two people. The menu has pictures of the meals which was quite funny as it came handy for my husband who was generally put out by the fact that Cretan menus have such small description (eg. rabbit in the oven, lamb in red wine- and that's it!), so it was helpful for him :)

If you are looking for a true insight into Cretan food, then you should really must visit our traditional "HAROKOPOS" taverna located on the main square of Plaka village. just two kilometers from Almyrida.We are open all year round. Our family taverna provides a true experience of local cuisine with all our family involvement.The igredients we use in cooking our specialties are from the region. Some of our specialties are made with fresh vegetables from our garden and meat from our small farm.Our chef, Mrs Argyro, cooks every day a new delicious plate.

Had a lovely meal here. The Hostess was just amazing and works really hard to give the customers individual attention. It gets very busy, so get there early!
