Kapilio

Tucked away into a quiet alley, away from the hustle and bustle of the town’s main roads, Kapilio is a hidden gem in Rethymno. Staying faithful to its roots, Kapilio focuses on the tried-and-tested recipes of Cretan gastronomy. That’s why it’s so popular with foodies in the know, who come back here again and again! Using only the finest and freshest ingredients, Kapilio’s chef creates unpretentious yet delicious dishes that will introduce you to the Cretan tradition. Our top picks are the seafood risotto, the roasted lamb, the shrimp with ouzo and lobster sauce, the steamed mussels, and the grilled beef steak with cheese and bacon. Just keep one thing in mind, though - the food at Kapilio is not for the faint-hearted!
