Naya Seaside Restaurant
Our seaside restaurant brings a contemporary hand to the cooking of Crete, built around local produce, carefully sourced ingredients and a deep respect for where food comes from. With more than thirty years of experience, including time in five-star hotels, our chef brings a refined approach without losing the character of the island.
The menu draws on the island itself: Cretan specialities and local meat, from mutton to Black Angus, alongside fish and seafood from the waters just beyond the terrace, including slipper lobster when available. Familiar dishes are given the same attention as the more ambitious ones.
Extra virgin olive oil is at the heart of the cooking and much of what reaches the table has travelled a very short distance to get there.
The restaurant sits on an elevated deck above the Cretan Sea with an open horizon, an unhurried setting for lunch, dinner or a meal as the sun goes down.
The kitchen stays open until midnight.
