We are the kind of people who keep coming back to the same places. "Why change a winning team", is our motto! And so far this restaurant has "delivered" every time around. They have excellent food. The chef is a greek macedonian, who have travelled the world, so he has an interesting international flavour to everything he makes. You may call it "crossover", even though it's base is definately greek. If you travel a lot to Greece, we can get a little fed up of moussakas, gyros, souvlakis and french fries. We can even get fed up of greek salad and tzaziki, believe it or not. That is why the restaurant Stratos, is a very welcoming place to eat, because here you can have something different, but still have all the greek food, if that is what you prefer. And his wife, Dolores, originally irish, alway supervises everything and makes sure you don,t miss anything. Oh, and did I say that the place is situated in a beautiful beach, over a small hill from the harbour of the village of Makrygialos! It is a beautiful and quiet spot to enjoy a meal cooked to perfection! Thank you so much, Dolores and Van, for all the good food and great company, even though I probably have to spend the autumn to get rid of the extra kiloes!

This restaurant is located outside the town of Makrygialos and just opposite the Sunwing Resort. This is probably why there are so many Scandinavian guests. The food is great, very authentic and reasonably priced. The staff is pleasant, professional, and smiling. I would absolutely visit again.

The setting is lovely and the staff, although very busy, were very welcoming. However, it has a busy hotel style restaurant feel to it rather than the traditional greek taverna so popular in this area. The food was equally uninspiring. A starter which consisted of raw cabbage and raw garlic with cooked shrimp on top was not nice. The rest of the food was OK but not notable.
4. Olympio Cafe

4.5 based on 137 reviews
"ΟΛΥΜΠΙΟ" situated next to the picturesque harbour (Limanaki beach) of Makry-Gialos. Fresh food and drinks, like Breakfast, Omelets, tasty snacks, the best Greek and Cretan salads, served all throughout the day. At the hot summer nights the great "Mythos" draught beer and cocktails always served with tradition appetising nibbles. Altogether a very pleasant cafe bar with a relaxing atmosphere and good wheelchair access. Chara and Dimitri are your hosts. Welcome.

We spent most of our holiday here. The owners were so friendly and welcoming. My son enjoyed the chocolate milkshakes and the cocktails were Devine. The food was lovely, my favourite was the Greek salads, my son enjoyed the ice cream desserts.
The bar is on the beach and has its own sun beds which can be used.
I would recommend this bar for a chill out with family.

We came to this restaurant after Reading the comments here at TripAdvisor and we where all very disepointed!!!
The food is not at all home made, you can feel that most of the food is half-fabrication.
My son took the fish-fingers and they where un-eatable!!!!
Would never come back here and do not recommend any one to eat here!
The only + was the view!
6. Diaskari

4.5 based on 217 reviews
Enjoy authentic Cretan cuisine and fresh fish, in the shadow of old trees. During the day-time, you may relax on a hammock and swim in the clear blue sea. During the night, the rolling sea-waves, the only sound you hear around, makes dining in DIASKARI a really romantic and unique experience.

This is a hidden spot down at the beach. Visited twice. The location is very, very pretty, food was always good and service very friendly. We ate some fresh fish, pasta, and mama’s meat balls that were great. Only moussaka was a bit dissapointing, everything else was delicious.

Reviewed By vivagoa2017 - London, United Kingdom
Well, nestled in the beautiful Mountains of Pefki is this unassuming, unspoilt food restaurant that just quenches all the taste buds. Oven roasted chips and platter of the vege pasties that just right to start your meal. Again, oven roasted lamb or good pork steak that is succulent and mouth watering to everyone's delight. No to miss the tomato omlette a speciality on the mountain top.

Had dinner under the pines by the beach - service was very friendly and the food (all the Greek classics) was good. A nice spot right on the beach.
9. The Rock Bar & Lounge
Overall Ratings

'The' bar in Makrigialos, newly refurbished and open 7 days a week. Come down and soak up the rays, while enjoying a cold drink on one of our sun beds on the beach, watch the sunset on our Terrace, relaxing to the sounds of a laid back beat or while away the time with friends in the bar until the early hours! We also show all major sporting events in the bar, Chris & Clare look forward to welcoming you.

We often went here after our evening meal for a cocktail and to relax listening to the great chill out music. Very welcoming and you get nice salty nibbles free no doubt to encourage you to drink even more lol. Cocktails are about 6.50 euros this year which I guess is about the same as everywhere else. Definitely recommend.

Wonderful fish taverna in the harbor
Reviewed By chunkyCheshire - cheshire
We would like to thank everyone at this restaurant for making our family of 8 holiday so good.
We were only in Makrygialos for 4 nights but ate here twice and had drinks (which they refused payment for) on the other nights.
The staff are wonderful as is the food. I would really recommend the fish soup, but to be honest, everything was great.
