Tavernaki Dimitris: Fish and seafood you will never forget!

A stroll along the Heraklion seafront will lead you to Tavernaki Dimitris, right across from the Museum of Natural History. Immediately catching your attention will be the well-kept outdoor area with blue and white tablecloths on white wooden tables, reminiscent of Greece's blue and white colors. Tavernaki Dimitris is a genuine fish taverna frequented by locals and tourists who return every year to savor their beloved dishes.

The owner sources daily ingredients from local producers to ensure freshness and quality. If you visit, be sure to try the fresh fish and tuna carpaccio, octopus, and shrimp. Don't miss the salmon tartare and the fantastic seafood pasta. Delicious bites for appetizers include homemade stuffed vine leaves and marinated anchovies. Pair these exquisite dishes with good Cretan wine and "wrap up" your meal with a sweet treat, fruit, and raki.
