Ρούκουνας — Restaurant in Municipality of Chersonissos

Second year turn to enjoy this fantastic restaurant with such a beautiful staff and food.Yesterday we turn back after one year and the feeling was same like coming home.The people there are giving you not only food but they feed also the soul and the heart❤️Never expected such a special treatment in everything.The food was same tasty and fresh like last time,but the portions even bigger and some how magical,honestly the taste of the fish we choose was unique and I eat only fish,but rarely feel a taste like this.We are all amazed of how all cretan food is cooked and how much love was there in everything plate we received.Experience to repeat 1000000 times minimum..Ah by the way the anchovy was the best I ever had in my entire life(I order them every day in every restaurant),but this was marinated from the hands of some Greek god I am sure:).The sweets was wow also,especially the home watermelon and all the other huge plates we eat with very big pleasure(chocolatopita) for example was mega really!!All was spectacular and can’t wait to come to receive again this beautiful energy,food and love.The stuff was so kind and such a gorgeous looking,the smiles of miss Crete ❤️,to not believe what a luck we have to know this real pearl of Crete .We adore you guys!See you soon🙏Recommend with...

Absolutely, the best place with tasty cuisine in Analipsi. Family restaurant. Looks like it was founded like a “bar in a free room”, then grew up to a solid restaurant. There are an olive tree in a middle of terrace, and fireplace to smoke meat and fish. I’m sure it input even more to atmosphere in a cold season. The Menu: good variety of fish, seafood and meat. We tasted octopus, stewed beef, baked pork (my favorite, because of delicate middle together with crispy outside), grilled squids (wife’s favorite, exactly the time - delicate meat, not over cooked), sardines and more. We found the place has the best balance between fine quality and solid variety of dishes. The Owner. The man. However it is a local family restaurant we got top service in terms of time, serving, and overall atmosphere all thanks this man. Today was our last day on resort, I visited the place on the way to airport, but unfortunately he was away and I’m so sad to miss a handshake with him.

Last but not least. Homemade rakia. It was a majestic drink. The best one we had on Crete. Strong, but with unique scent of raisin after.

Usually we’re are not visiting the same resorts twice, but I bet if we got a good offer to Crete next time I will do all to visit the place no matter where...

Highly recommended! We had such an impressive experience. Food was super delicious and the staff very polite, attentive and helpful. I had a really good and massive seabass and I enjoyed a lot. My partner had a mixed meat grilled and it was spectacular. We took also a Greek salad, marinated sardines and fried calamari that were very fresh and amazingly tasty. The staff was very professional, warmth and very welcoming. The best food experience we had in Crete and we will definitely go back if we will come to visit the island again. Super recommended if you want to eat the real...
