An amazing tavern with fresh local products and with a superb view to the sea. The fish is very fresh and well cooked. The wines are from local producers (the whites are excellent) and the staff is super friendly and profesional

A very pretty restaurant with tumbling flowers, a stunning view of the bay and proper local food. The owner showed us the fresh fish and a selection of home-made vegetable dishes of the day before we sat down . We had delicious chilled out lunch of Horta (wild mountain greens) small fish and tzatziki with bread and were delighted. The free watermelon was the sweetest I’ve had on the island. I even left with a book!

What an incredible place. First of all: the view, the scenery. It’s beautiful with all the greenery, the table settings, the balconies. It really sets the mood for a great meal that you are about to have. Then the staff, they are so nice and friendly. It’s feels like you are eating at a longtime friend, they make it feel like coming home to you even when it’s your first time on Lendas. The food is so good, fresh and well prepared. I really liked the small moments for conversation and recommendations, makes you feel welcome and they want to take the time for you, offering the best they can. It was a lovely experience and for the time that is still left for me on Lendas I will definitely eat here again! Thank you El Greco, what a wonderful experience.

Love it! What a great restaurant at the most beautiful village in Crete! We stayed for two nights at the rooms right over the restaurant. Very clean with renovated bathrooms! And the view... unbelievable!

Had such an amazing dinner here that my wife and I returned the next day for lunch. Ask to take a look in the kitchen to see what specials they’re making for the day. We enjoyed another delicious meal with Stuffed mushrooms with spinach & feta, stuffed eggplant with ricotta & fresh herbs, and stuffed tender chicken breasts with halloumi. This place is a gem! Highly recommend!

The place and service is very good, the waiters are very kind and available. The view from the terrace is so good and the food is delicious

The food is representative of Greek cuisine and warms the heart. The wine list is deep and surprisingly elegant. I believe it’s the only tavern in the south of Crete with that kind of wine list. If you find yourself here ask to see Zacharias for wine recommendations

I had a grilled cuttlefish, actually one of the most tastier i ever had, It cames with rice and cabbage salad and they allow me to have also stuffed zucchini flowers, super! Staff Is friendly and welcoming they help me with direction and advices, really thank you again.

Most welcoming and hospitable cosy hotel and taverna in the heart of a beautiful village at the seaside. Wonderful and authentic place with sea view rooms and amazing restaurant. Delicious food, with heart and attention to detail. Run by three brothers who take care of you like a member of your family. Super clean and comfortable rooms. Truly recommend.

Perched beside the Aegean Sea, this Greek restaurant, helmed by two Greek god-brothers, is an ethereal dining experience.
Tobias Berger
One of the best places in the south of Crete by far. Tender grilled meats, fantastic seafood, fresh fish. Outstanding service, amazing location. We simply fell in love with this place.
Marcus Bitterlich
Dinner here was amazing! Appetizers were freshly baked bread and delectable stuffed Zucchini flowers. For the main course we enjoyed layered potato & eggplant dish called Imam and herb marinated tender Lamb chops. We were so satiated that we tried to leave without the complimentary dessert, but our host insisted that we end our evening with a baked dark chocolate desert. Delightful! Sk good that we had to return the next day for lunch!
Barb D
Lovely staff/owners, beautiful view of the sea and nice music setting the atmosphere. Excellent Bifteki stuffed with feta and fabulous imam (aubergine, courgette, potato and tomato oven dish). Great stuffed vine leaves and house red as well. Very happy with the price to value ratio. Can't wait to go again!
