The best dinner in Malia! All homemade, a huge difference from the other touristy and crowded places in the centre. Also recommended for families (balloons and ice cream offered for children, as well as many dishes that are also suitable for children) and for those who must eat gluten-free. Marvelous! It's a small, simple place, but it offers an unforgettable experience with Greek cuisine!!
Absolutely recommended. Very nice local family owns this place. Food is delicious, very kids friendly too. The menu shows which dishes are gluten free. They also have gluten free pita bread which they heated separately for me as I asked them to do so.
Experience a cozy downtown vibe with unmatched service, tasty options, and complimentary treats that make every visit feel special.

Came here the other night was everything and more we could ask for! I have plenty of intolerances (gluten, dairy and others) and they were so accommodating even suggested things to make off menu for me! Thought we would try a new restaurant tonight but left to come back due to the service and food being unmatched. Staff remembered my intolerances and our drinks order making us feel so welcomed. 100% recommend especially with allergies or intolerance, couldn’t ask for better thank you guys, shall see you again when we return to crete!!
A modern gem with a breathtaking view, serving artfully crafted dishes in a vibrant atmosphere—definitely a highlight of any Greek adventure!

Best gluten free pizza I have ever eaten. The tuna tartar was also so good. It's a beautiful restaurant with perfect service. Thank you, Jordan for a lovely day.

Stumbled across this restaurant while roaming old town. The menu posted outside was in english and greek and was clearly marked with many GF options. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable about gluten allergies. The food was outstanding and the atmosphere very welcoming. They had homemade gluten free bread and provided a complimentary dessert (also GF). would definitely eat here again. (Edit...actually ate here 3 times in 3 days....)
Indulge in perfect pasta with creamy sauce and generous portions, plus fresh sushi that's a hit, making it a must-try spot!

The best gluten free pasta I have had in my decade of being a celiac. Cooked to perfection, generous portion, and the creamiest sauce. My partner had the sushi and found it fresh and delicious (unfortunately they don’t offer gluten free sushi at this time). The service was also 10/10. Would highly recommend :)
Family-owned gem with a welcoming vibe, offering tasty dishes and a cozy atmosphere, perfect for a relaxed meal out.

The food was really very good. There are also many gluten-free options here, including food, gluten-free beer, and bread. The bread is baked by the owner's son. I particularly enjoyed the Stifado, and I ordered it again on my second visit. The owner and her staff are also excellent at their jobs and very friendly. A little further up town, the same owner runs a second restaurant, "Palatum," which also has many gluten-free options. We enjoyed our meals at both places and would gladly return.
A clean, inviting spot in a hotel with a diverse menu of sizable portions and a cozy vibe that keeps people coming back for more.

The food is great and tasty, the portions are big enough. The restaurant has a gluten-free menu, which is great for any gluten intolerant people. All in all, I highly recommend the place to anyone who comes along.

This restaurant is a must visit if you can, the staff are fantastic and very accommodating.
The food is 10/10. Pasta dishes for hamburgers!!!
Gluten-free choices of several dishes are much appreciated. Great atmosphere and cozy. Extra plus is that they speak Scandinavian too 👍👍👍👍👍
