Peperoncino

The restaurant is great. Super cool atmosphere and the food options are great. The only reason I am giving it a 4 star is because the deserts we tried (tiramisu was all cream, no taste of alcohol or the soft thing whatever it is called). But overall i would recommend going there. The pasta was good but too filling with a big portion.

I went there with my family and we had a great time overall. Every dish was really full with flavour, the service was excellent, very kind and helpful. I totally recommend the strawberry salad, the rice-balls and the risotto with the smoked panseta. The only complaint I have is the continuous opening and closing of the fans, which made the atmosphere feel hotter than it already was.

Worst ever experience in a restaurant. I ordered a spicy pizza with peperoni and I received a pizza full of onions. It was impossible to eat it since the quantities of onions was covering the taste of all the other ingridients. I complained to the waiter and the answer I got was that the onions add the spicy flavor!!! 🙄 The pizza was unbeatable and I had only a slice! Obviously I paid for something was impossible to eat! A place to AVOID and to FORGET!!! ☠️☠️☠️

During our vacation in Crete, we decided to treat ourselves to an authentic Italian pizza and chose Peperoncino. This decision was absolutely rewarding. The restaurant, centrally located, stands out with its inviting ambiance. Fortunately, due to the off-season, it wasn't crowded, and we were able to pick a seat of our choice at 7:00 PM without any issues. We ordered two different pizzas: The Tartufo and the Marinara. Both were exquisite and impressed with their freshness and taste, surely thanks to the stone oven they were prepared in. For drinks, we opted for a non-alcoholic beer and an Aperol Spritz. The latter deserves a special mention as it was rich in flavor and wasn’t overly diluted with ice – another mark of quality from this establishment. The friendly service was also noteworthy, adding to the culinary experience. Despite its central location, the prices are moderate, which isn’t a given in this area. All in all, our visit to Peperoncino was a complete success, and we wholeheartedly recommend it. If you're in Crete and looking for an outstanding Italian pizza, this place is a must-visit!

This place is awesome. We came here twice during our stay. The staff are lovely and food is amazing. Try the tagliatelle if you like a spicy twist on an Italian classic. Highly recommended and would come again next time.

Excellent food! I went there for diner with my boyfriend and we found the food very tasty! Smoked salmon pasta was the best I ever tasted! Good pizza too. Nice staff. Moreover, they gave us a good dessert for free. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for pasta or pizza!

Great place with real italian flavors!! The truffle rigatoni was great and our waiter brought dessert on the house for us to try 🥰 Good prices as well, especially for the quality. The wine menu was a little limited but maybe it was only this evening, it tasted really nice anyways! Definitely recommend this restaurant in Rethymno 🌟

The food was great. I had the veal with truffles pasta which was truly amazing, I recommend it 100%. However we did wait for a while to order since it seemed like there was only one waitress (who took orders). Very nice restaurant, would definitely come back again.
