Restaurant Orexi — Restaurant in Municipality of Chania

We went to Orexi three times during our 10 day stay in Chania. The food was fantastic, during our visits we enjoyed three of the different salads they had offered, all of them had a great mix of fresh vegetables, seeds, and either dried fruit, cheese and/or chicken with great balsamic vinegar based dressings. In all cases they were fantastic. We also had fish one time with our salad, another time we had a pork kebab, and the final time a pork gyro platter. In all cases, the meat off the grill was perfectly cooked and seasoned. In all cases, we had plenty of food. Also we really enjoyed the various house wines with our dinners. And the service was great, we really enjoyed our conversations with Maria during our several visits. Would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is...

The terrace is calm, shaded, and a lovely spot to relax – far from the noisy tourist places. A true hidden gem in Chania with kind staff, great food, and a welcoming vibe. We’ll definitely remember...

Really friendly waitress, who speaks English well. Even checked if I wanted the small plate to come out before the main dish. A simple and obvious answer but showed they care about service. Good choices for food, ranging from traditional Cretan/Greek to classic restaurant dishes. Haven't tried traditional dishes before so can't comment on comparison. But still really enjoyed the flavors. Two notes: (1) shaded outdoor seating is limited so try to avoid busy times if it's really sunny and (2) when I asked about the traditional dish of the day, I was told it wasn't ready yet. Not sure if this is common, but there were plenty of other options to...
