Da Giorgio
About
On Crete, Da Giorgio sits in the eastern town of Sitia, at Kon/nou Karamanli 14, Sitia 723 00, Greece, and is known for its restaurant cooking on the island's quieter eastern edge. The menu follows what the island produces, and horiatiki salad, grilled octopus and thyme honey from island hills are common on menus. First-time visitors should expect a straightforward restaurant meal rather than a resort setting, with the town itself as the surrounding context.
Guests have rated the place 4.4 out of 5 across 360 reviews, a substantial body of feedback that reflects steady local and visitor trade. Sitia lies well east of the main northern resorts, so reaching Da Giorgio from Heraklion, Chania or Rethymno involves a long drive across the island, while Agios Nikolaos and Ierapetra sit closer along the same coast. Matala and Elafonisi lie far to the west, and Heraklion and Chania anchor the north coast.
Winter brings rain and rough seas, and many island hotels and tavernas shut between November and March, so the eastern end of Crete is busiest in the warmer months. For a first visit, plan the drive east as a day of its own rather than a quick detour.
