Chrisostomos

We were advised by our hotel for a good restaurant for locals with reasonable prices. Food was perfect. Service was even better. Atmosphere within the restaurant is good but you are facing the auto park. I don’t think that prices are low. Moderately high indeed but I don’t mean it doesn’t worth it. We were perfectly happy.

Fabulous meat focused restaurant, recommended by several locals for a reason! Mix of Greeks & foreigners, all relaxed enjoying their tasty food. We focused on snails for entree (so good) & lamb for mains (lamb should & ribs baked plus lamb & feta pie). House wine was great & service was friendly & attentive. Simple & enjoyable dinner!

We were able to get a table by walk in luckily. Otherwise it gets really full and the request you to call and book in advance. This was recommended to us by our hotel receptionist for Cretian food. The meals are meant to be shared as the portions are really large. For two people, two appetisers and one main is more than enough. They serve you lukamades and raki on the house to end your meal. A good place for authentic food and good pricing! The boureki was amazing! House wine is reasonable at €6.50 for 1/2 litre!

Super super nice staff, nice location, good quality food! My slow cooked lamb was delicious. Fries are the Greek standard, not worth it but I come for the meat! And as dessert from the house, delicious loukoumades!!

As an Italian, I have to say the bread as everything at Chrisostomos truly impressed me! The bread was absolutely delicious and super fresh, definitely worth trying on its own. I also tried the liver, heart, and lungs—as a Sicilian, I’m used to eating those in a much unhealthier way, so tasting this more refined and traditional version was both good and interesting. I wouldn’t recommend it to everyone, only if you already enjoy those kinds of meats. The pasta with chicken was flavorful and well done, and honestly, judging by the dishes I saw coming out of the kitchen, you can’t go wrong with anything here. Everything looked and smelled amazing. The restaurant is authentic, traditional, and full of character, with great service to match. A must-visit if you’re looking for a real taste of Crete!

Amazing food and great service! Recommended to us by our hotel, and we were not disappointed. The octopus was perfectly cooked, the seasonings were on point, and the food was served promptly but with no rush.

probably one of the best restaurants in Greece, Europe, Easter Hemisphere, we cannot wait to come back to Chania so we can eat here. Rustic Cretan menu with lots of options, wine list by the mile and excellent staff. gets very busy so a reservation might be needed. I love the Lamb Options, the homemade bread, the side dishes, vegetarian options, bring a big group so you can order everything on the menu to share. 10-10 Stars!

The dinners and salad my wife and I had were excellent. The rocket salad had figs, cheese, and was dressed perfectly. We both ordered from the daily specials menu both had different types of lamb dishes, and again those were really well prepared. However, this was our first experience in Greece of feeling rushed to finish. We had very little time to eat the salad before the entrees were delivered. The tables were extremely close together - nearly back to back. Finally, we really appreciate the small dessert and raki tradition of Greece. The raki was sharper than others we have had, but the loukamades were quite good.
