Merastri: Homestyle cooking with a view of the southern sea

top rated

ABOUT

At the family-owned Merastri taverna in the village of Sellia, Agios Vasilios, you’ll find exceptional traditional Cretan cuisine paired with a stunning view over Plakias Bay. Their dishes are made from homegrown produce, with additional ingredients sourced from local farmers.

The food at Merastri is heartwarming and homemade. Beyond the classic taverna offerings, you’ll find daily specials inspired by the culinary traditions of inland Crete. Their beef stew is melt-in-your-mouth tender, while the cheese-and-apaki-stuffed pastry rolls are simply outstanding!

Mr. Giorgos offers outstanding service, and the setting is charming, with neat white tables. Don’t leave without trying the vanilla-pergamon and mastiha ice cream!
