Amazing restaurant in the city centre!
This is definitely one of the best restaurants of Chania. Service is great, and the personnel is very friendly and kind.
Atmosphere is that of an authentic greek tavern, you can sit inside or outside.
Food is the star of Mesotrato. We had some of the best dishes ever tried in Crete and Greece. The fava beans and the dakhos are worth trying.

Un lugar preciosos donde se podría cenar de lujo.
A pesar de que el jefe de sala es atento y agradable, el servicio es lento y poco profesional. Están más pendientes de beber y chismorrear que de atender a los clientes. Debido a esto, los tiempos de espera fueron interminables… 4 camareros más el jefe de sala para atender a 9 mesas.
La comida no estaba mal, aunque hemos comido lo mismo en otros lugares mejor de precio y con más cantidad.

Honestly nothing special. We were expecting much bigger portions for the price we paid. Fries/potatoes were tasteless (no salt or seasoning) which are not on the menu and cost 5€. Grilled sardines 9.50€ (tiny portion) have no salad or side. Chicken souvlaki 12.50€ with old and hard pitta bread. Compare with prices/portions in Rethymno town this is tourist trap 😞

No puedo estar más agradecido a este restaurante en el cual perdí mi cartera con toda la documentación y me localizaron en la marabunta de Chania para devolvermela. Más allá de haber comido muy bien, la honestidad que demostraron dice mucho de ellos. Mil gracias!!

A very pretty restaurant. It is in the centre of the old town, but its yard is hidden behind a wall, making it easy to miss. This results in the restaurant usually being quiet and serene, unaffected by the huge crowds that visit Chania every summer. The decorations were beautiful, enhancing the good atmosphere. The food was delicious, both the Gemista and the Boureki (which is a dish traditional to Chania) are great choices. Prices are fair for the area. The service was friendly and very quick. Thanks a lot!

Top Athmospäre in einem schattigen Innenhof mitten in alten venezianischen Ruinen.

Die Muscheln haben uns besonders gut geschmeckt.

We spent great time in this interesting location, among old walls.
The food was very tasty and the portions were very big.
The staff was very kind and helpful, they gave us some good recommendations.

Service war nett und zuvorkommend.
Ambiente auch sehr angenehm. Toiletten sauber, allerdings Toilettensitz lose und Schließmechanismus der Tür funktioniert nur so halbwegs.

Vorspeise war echt gut. Die Grillplatte für zwei war sehr viel. Allerdings viel eher fettes Fleisch. Pita war hart, mag auch an der Art der Pita liegen.

Ich würde sagen eine Gesamtwertung des Restaurants von 4,0-4,2 wäre passend. 4,6 finde ich anhand der üblichen Bewertungen zwischen 4,0 (niedriger ist eher Totalausfall) und 5,0 etwas zu hochgegriffen.

Sehr schönes Ambiente, freundlicher aber nicht aufdringlicher Service, große Portion. Empfehlenswert 👍

Gemütliches Restaurant in der zweiten Reihe am alten Hafen. Überschaubare Speisenauswahl und sehr freundlicher Service. Wir hatten die Gemischte Grillplatte für 2 Personen. Reichlich, aber viel Fett. Es hätte auch etwas mehr Raffinesse bei der Würze gut getan. So war es ein ordentliches Abendessen - mehr aber auch nicht.

We sat down for a late dinner. The atmosphere was very nice. There was some pretty good live music performed by a father and son. The music was so good that we followed it and drank Ouzo. According to Ouzo, our food choice was simple appetizers and seafood... The food was good and delicious. Unfortunately, the only thing we didn't like in the restaurant was the waiters. They were all unprofessional, uninterested and rude.

Location is fantastic one alley up from the restaurants beside the water very unusual being in a roofless ruined building witch was wonderful to experience.
The service was brilliant very welcoming warm friendly. There was also Cretan folk music adding to the atmosphere.
Food and prices great very reasonable.
Would highly recommend the halloumi it comes with a marmalade sauce.
Lamb chops. Tzatziki with pitta bread freshly made.
