Isichi Gonia
About
Isichi Gonia, on Crete, sits at χρυσοσκαλιτισσα 730 12, Greece, in the island's eastern reaches. First-time visitors should expect the steady rhythm of a village restaurant rather than a resort dining room. The kitchen's reputation rests on a 4.5 out of 5 score drawn from 286 guest reviews.
That volume of feedback makes Isichi Gonia one of the more reviewed tables in its corner of Crete. Diners come for straightforward cooking served in a setting that has earned consistent marks across hundreds of visits. The review count of 286 gives a broad picture of how the restaurant performs night after night. Reaching it from Heraklion, Chania or Rethymno involves a drive east across the island.
Agios Nikolaos and Sitia lie closer to the restaurant than the northern hubs of Heraklion and Chania. Matala and Elafonisi sit further afield, on the south and west coasts respectively. Ierapetra is another nearby town within the same eastern region.
For a visitor basing a trip on Crete, the island's road signs and menus use the Greek alphabet, so a little familiarity helps when navigating east. Horiatiki salad, grilled octopus and thyme honey from island hills appear on menus across Crete. Ferries and high-speed catamarans link the islands to Piraeus, Rafina and each other, though winter services are fewer. Monk seals and loggerhead turtles live around the islands, and many have protected nesting beaches.
