  •   As mature people getting married 2nd time around, we wanted a wedding with a difference. To have a very casual ceremony on a beach in Crete with friends followed by... read more dinner in a taverna. Liz our Wedding Planner suggested the River Taverna as we could have the ceremony on the beach. We wern't disappointed. Liz and the River Taverna organised the perfect evening. Liz did the planning and the Taverna provided the most wonderful food. We had giant beans, prawn and mussel saganiki, courgette balls, with breads and dips to start with followed by grilled lamb and chicken, potatoes and greek salad.Later in the evening the restaurant served greek pies with honey followed by gyros at midnight. The staff at the taverna were amazing, The service was fantastic - waiting staff were attentive and polite and most of all entertained us with greek dancing, plate smashing and setting fire to the floor. We can't recommend the taverna highly enough.

  •   This lovely quiet taverna is a hidden gem. Not too busy, excellent staff and wonderful food. Pick a sun lounger for a few euros and it's yours for the day... read more with beach service for drinks. Lunch at the taverna is family friendly and excellent fresh seafood and meat dishes. Facilities are clean which is a bonus. Will definitely come back here again. A welcome break from the busy tourist spots with a personalised service. Anna who runs it remembered our names and we went back many times over our two week break. Highly recommended.
