100% vegan und authentisch

Hier passt alles- die Besitzerin ist seit mehr als 10 Jahren rein vegan lebend und weiß was vegan kochen heißt. Es ist nicht nur das Weglassen von tierischen Produkten, es ist die bestens abgestimmte Kombination aus hochwertigen pflanzlichen Nahrungsmitteln.
Vieles ist Rohkost- raffiniert und geschmacklich top zubereitet. Die Stimmung im Lokal- die Empfehlungen der Chefin- es passt einfach alles. Plant based at his best.
Ich lasse Bilder sprechen in meiner Bewertung und stelle die dazu.

Pros: Authentische vegane Küche, Rohkost auf höchstem Niveau, Handarbeit bei jedem Teller

The gem of the South 💯🎯✨

The food here is PHENOMENAL, the decor, outstanding and the atmosphere, relaxing and delightful. The food is just out of this world, fresh and made with love. If you aren’t in the area, drive! You will not regret it! You can always make a day of it-visit the beach and go here for dinner. A delight that the world needs to know about! 💚💚💚

Fully vegan

Fully vegan restaurant with lots of amazing options! Both our dishes were to die for. Maybe a bit on a smaller side because my partner was still a bit hungry after his meal. Lovely tranquil setting. Slow service. Tasty cocoa banana bread on the house for dessert which we really loved and appreciated. Must visit if in vicinity!

Pros: Lots of options, Very good food, Nice ambient

Cons: Small(er) portions, Slow service

Super tasty

What a pleasant surprise to find a fully vegan spot in such a small town! The food was delicious—we enjoyed a flavorful mushroom dish and lentil curry bowls, along with refreshing homemade lemonade (quite sharp!) and cakes for dessert. The main dishes were outstanding, though the baked cheesecake was a bit on the dry side. The restaurant features a lovely, shaded garden that’s beautifully decorated, making it a charming place to relax. They also cater to families, offering a baby chair and some toys for older children. Our only minor complaint was the slow service; despite being the only customers, we had to ask for assistance when we wanted to order more.

Tranquil atmosphere, delicious food

We had lunch here after visiting Matala. The food was delicious and nicely presented. Our 8-year-old enjoyed it as well. The owner was lovely and very helpful.

High class dining

Update in 24: still delicious, still expensive, menu changed slightly but still great

You seriously shouldn't come here. I want it completely to myself. This place is like a treasure. It's too good and beautiful ❤️ we could gush about the delicious dishes, the boho romantic enterieur or the charming lady who owns it but instead we highly recommend to come and see for yourself. It's an 11 of 10. Yes, it's expensive compared to other local restaurants but the food is a well-working compensation. Only minus would be the aggressive mosquitoes but that's nobody's fault.

Pros: Vegan high class experience , Dreamy outdoor dining area , Very nice community

Cons: Mosquitoes , Pricey

Best Vegan in Crete... or anywhere:)

We loved our 2 meals here.... breakfast and dinner on a different day. The food is out of this world beautifully presented and delicious. The recipes are unique and wonderfully surprising. Just order anything:) you won't go wrong. Owner chef, Ziza, creator of everything you see there, is usually around, ready to share her exuberance and love of food and anything you wish to chat about!
The environment she has created is artistic and casual, you will want to stay and enjoy yourself:)

Pros: All good!, Food is fun, and delicious, Atmosphere is casual and inviting

Cons: nothing

Hidden paradise

Lovely, quiet chillout-area in beautiful Greek style. The food is really delicious. A great variety of food choices. All ingredients are really fresh and put together it’s a taste explosion. Green Kukunari prepares all food ingredients by themself, like dressings, burger patties, buns etc. The piece of cake was quite expensive but wonderful taste and not as sweet as most bakery offerings you buy at other places. Best and most fresh dinner I had at Crete. Go there! It’s definitely worth the visit.

Pros: Healthy, fresh handmade food, Garden , not overcrowded

Cons: A bit pricey, Side street you won’t find without navigation

Muy buena opción

Acabamos en este restaurante debido a que los de Heraklion estaban cerrados y, visto ahora, no pudimos tener más suerte. El sitio es precioso, la chica que lo lleva muy amable y la comida se nota que es casera y está tremendamente rica. Pedimos varios platos para compartir: bol de lentejas y falafel de remolacha con pan casero y de postre tarta de queso y, además, nos invitó a probar el último trozo de brownie que le quedaba y estaba espectacular. Sin duda mereció la pena ir.

Pros: Ambiente del local., Atención , Buena calidad - precio

Favourite vegan restaurant so far

I ordered the tofu scramble (super tasty but quite a strong nutritional yeast flavour). I suggested you had some slices of their seeded bread to match it. I also had a coffee with oat milk (was ok) and their lemon tart which was to die for (but like 8€ the slice aie aie aie)! Ended up paying close to 26€ for it all which more like European prices but definitely a high end experience!

The owner is from Belgium and speaks multiple languages. This is the best food I've tried so far as it's organic/ macrobiotic ingredients cooked from fresh and the place has a very nice courtyard and cute dogs. Will be back

Pros: Best quality food , Very nice courtyard, Cute dogs & nice service

Cons: Tofu scramble should have come with bread, A little pricey

First class cuisine!

By far the best vegan restaurant we found on our 10 day visit to South Crete. The food was exceptional and beautifully presented, all at very reasonable prices. A must visit if you’re in the area.

Vegan oasis in Pitsidia

The green Kukunari serves absolutely delicious all vegan food, everything is healthy, creative and prepared with so much love! We are breakfast and dinner there and both were fantastic! Plus, the meal sizes are really big. If in the South of Crete, do not miss to eat there 💚

The best food in Crete by a mile!

Yummy food, beautiful place!

Such a lovely place! Hidden in a side street where you wouldn’t expect a restaurant. All the dishes we tried were delicious. The lady owner and cook was working on the new menu. Would love to come back for that.

Pros: All vegan, Changing menu, Cosy athmosphere
