Love coming to Kostas. The food is outstanding, there is loads to choose from. The staff are always happy to explain what tge dishes are. This was our 5th time eating here and certainly won't be our last. Would highly recommend visiting this family run restaurant.
On every vacation in Crete, I return to eat at dear Kosta's—great service, a courteous and smiling staff, and traditional Greek home-style cooking; one of the best spots in Greece.
Waaaauw…hier komen we terug. Reserveren is aangeraden en heel gemakkelijk 2u daarvoor online
We made a reservation for the two of us and two other couples. We requested a table in the small terrace in front of the taverna facing the beautiful church. The experience from the moment we arrived until the moment we left was fantastic. The menu was thoroughly explained, recommendations given. We ordered various items from the menu and were not disappointed .. Everyone enjoyed their meals, the house wine and the complimentary raki and fruit at the end of the meal. We will definitely be back! .
The food was perfectly prepared and presented. The octopus was excellent and the courgette fries a perfect accompaniment. The tzatziki was the best we’ve ever eaten with a perfect texture and flavour.
The family is clearly heavily vested in the restaurant’s success with the service excellent and atmosphere warm and welcoming.
The moment you step into this restaurant you are treated like family, the service was amazing, lovely chat, and excellent food. Highly recommend.
Lovely family, beautiful food and great atmosphere!
We had a lovely meal! The “Meze” dishes are absolutely delicious. We went back a second time because it was so good.
And then there’s the staff – passionate, they proudly explain what each dish is and what they (rightly) recommend. Warm and enthusiastic. Their attitude makes it a real treat to have been here. What a warm welcome!
Lovely family run restaurant. Always made to feel so welcome and the food is lovely at very reasonable prices,we visit everytime we are here on holiday
Love this restaurant. We visit every time with are in Koutoulafari as it’s just a short walk away.
Friendly atmosphere, fab food and a lovely family run business.
Highly recommended…
Kosta’s is our favourite restaurant, the combination of food, family and atmosphere is authentic, from start to finish you are made to feel very special.
If you are in the area don’t miss out!
Wow this is a must visit , very traditional Creecian Tapas, with exceptional food, service and a beautiful family. It was out of this world.Highly recommended in Piskopiano, better also to pre book.Thankyou
We had a large selection of tapas as dining with 2 vegetarians in a party of 5, I've been here several times before. Always friendly, helpful with menu choices, and delicious food. Brother and sister run front of house so we'll, and always remember you as previous customers!! Love this place
We have eaten here 4 times now. It is a restaurant run by an entire family. The different dishes are explained to you. “The dish of the day” says it all. We chose this both times, and both times it was delicious and surprising.
The starters we had beforehand were also great. We didn’t get to dessert because we were too full.

Fantastic authentic family restaurant serving the best meatballs in Crete. Good value for money, lovely setting
Zum zweiten Mal haben wir gestern den Abend in vollsten Zügen genossen: bester Service, leckeres Essen.
A lovely family restaurant. Nothing is too much trouble. I am a vegetarian and so many mezes choice for me. So disappointed we haven't been here before but will definitely return and recommend.
We have visited Kostas several times over the years and we are never disappointed. This family run restaurant offers the very warmest of welcome with a great choice of traditional freshly prepared Greek food at very reasonable prices. You simply must visit if you are near by.
