Kastro Cretan Cuisine: Traditional flavors in a seaside fishing village

Kastro Cretan Cuisine in Panormo, Rethymno, blends past and present in a welcoming environment where traditional flavors are showcased in beautifully arranged dishes.

As you enter, you’ll be greeted by an open-roof courtyard and feel the warmth of Cretan hospitality along with the kindness of the staff.

Choose your table and ask the staff to recommend a local wine from the restaurant’s cellar, which houses a variety of Cretan wines.

The menu offers traditional flavors featuring meats, seafood, and fish. We suggest trying the slow-cooked goat in wine and herbs, served with handmade pasta topped with fresh anthotyro cheese—a local and incredibly delicious dish.

The restaurant’s owners are friendly and will be delighted to meet you and, perhaps, even treat you to a round of raki.
