About

Nikos Platanakis, on Crete, occupies a setting along Epar.Od. Pl. - Zakrou in Kato Zakros 723 00, Greece. First-time visitors to this restaurant can expect a dining address in one of the island's more remote eastern corners, away from the main resort strips. The venue holds a 4.4 out of 5 rating from 256 reviews, a large sample for a single address.

That score reflects steady feedback across a substantial number of diners. Reaching the restaurant from the main towns is possible by road, with Sitia, Ierapetra, Agios Nikolaos and Heraklion all listed among the nearby places. The setting in Kato Zakros places it at the eastern end of Crete, well beyond the busier northern coast.

The location suits travellers already exploring the island's eastern side rather than those based in the west.

Island bakeries sell spanakopita and tyropita, and vineyards on Santorini, Crete and Paros produce local wines. Orthodox Easter is the biggest religious festival, and village panigyria mark saints' days through the summer.
