 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Posto incredibile e stupendo, oltre a gestori molto ospitali. Dividerete il locale con un sacco di cagnolini, oltre a uno stupendo tramonto.

Foglie di vite con riso, mythos da 66 e patatine fritte = 18 Eur. Grappa offerta dalla casa.

Andate al tramonto

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bonjour,
Nous nous sommes arrêtés pour faire une photo et nous en avons profité pour commander   2 parts de moussaka  à emporter.
La personne qui semblait Gentille et serviable et malheureusement malhonnête.
Elle a mis une portion unique au lieu de 2 dans la barquette avant que nous puissions voir à l'intérieur .
Nous avons payé le prix de 2 portions évidemment .
Attention ,il vaut mieux vérifier avant de partir !

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ein Ort, den man schwer beschreiben kann. Wir waren fast in Höhe der Wolken an dem Tag, mit herrlichem Blick über das Meer... atemberaubend. Wir hatten, wie es sich gehört einen Orangensaft. Andere Gäste hatten was zu essen geordert, was sehr lecker aussah. Alleine der Weg dorthin ein Erlebnis durch die grandiose Natur West Kretas!
