The best panoramic restaurants Crete

If you are looking for quality, elegance, freshness and a breathtaking view of the sea, 7 Thalasses is the ideal address. It is the restaurant of the Thalassa boutique hotel and since 2000 it has placed Rethymno among the best gastronomic destinations in Crete with its menu. It offers Mediterranean and Cretan cuisine: fresh fish and shellfish platters, delicious salads, dishes for lovers of the flavors of the sea. First class wine list. Reservations are recommended.

Small family restaurant, very well situated high up to admire the splendid view of the port. Among the large choice of dishes, we enjoyed the kleftiko (oven-baked lamb with cheese and vegetables). Good classic Cretan cuisine (tarama, garlic bread, saganaki shrimps, grilled sea bream, lamb in sauce...), with a welcome like the Cretans know how to make. The staff is smiling. The traditional glass of raki and the small plate of pastries are always offered with joy at the end of the meal. There are a lot of regulars, it's relaxed.
