Boutique Hotels, Shopping and Best Bars
With its Venetian harbor and historic streets, Chania provides a stunning backdrop for a diverse dining scene. Cretan cuisine is known for its use of fresh, local ingredients and mouthwatering traditional recipes, but a new wave of chefs is increasingly introducing innovative techniques and global flavors to complement the classic scene.
This article guides you to Chania’s most unmissable restaurants, where you can enjoy traditional Cretan dishes or creative culinary exploration, at restaurants that reflect the island’s rich gastronomic heritage and evolving food culture.
Dounias stands out in Chania’s restaurant scene, offering its (loyal) diners a rich, rustic dining experience based on its organic farms and fire-cooking methods. This spot has shunned electricity since it reached the village in 1986. The menu includes slow-cooked potatoes fried in olive oil, melt-in-your-mouth chickpeas, and a unique chestnut stew with beetroot. Their bread, artfully made from sourdough and mixed wheat, pairs perfectly with their tangy village salad. Everything is grown or raised on-site, ensuring freshness, authenticity and full-impact flavor.

Here you’ll enjoy a vibrant space that channels the spirit of a Mexican hacienda with its bold colors and Latin American touches. The atmosphere is relaxed, and there is a welcoming courtyard. One corner houses a traditional underground barbacoa oven, made from 100-year-old Cretan firebricks. Here, they slow-roast organic pork from Vavouraki Farm and local goats, occasionally wrapping them in fresh banana leaves for a unique flavor. The chef-owner spoils guests with an original Cretan-Mexican fusion cuisine. Highlights include rice with sea snails, sofrito of guajillo pepper, and barbacoa goat with carob tortillas, nut sauce, pickled hibiscus onions, and his signature hot sauce.
