Modern Restaurant in Heraklion

Exquisite Cuisine, Impeccable Service

"This place is situated in the heart of heraklion in a pedestrian street, which means that that it is quiet there. You can enjoy a drink and food inside where it is cosy with a warm atmosphere or you can sit outside and watch the people walking by. Enjoy!"
