Ta Kymata

4.4(469 reviews)

About

In Crete, Ta Kymata sits at Πλακα, Schisma Elountas 720 53, Greece, a restaurant on the island's eastern side. The name means "the waves" in Greek, and the kitchen serves the seafood and mezze that define eating out on Crete.

Ta Kymata has built its name on fresh fish and grilled dishes, served in a setting that draws both locals and travellers. A 4.4 out of 5 average across 469 reviews shows how consistently diners judge the food and service. The restaurant sits near Agios Nikolaos, one of the eastern Crete towns that anchor this stretch of coast.

Dining here is relaxed rather than formal, with the focus on shared plates and local ingredients. The taverna fills up in the evenings, especially during the summer months when visitors arrive in force. Booking ahead is sensible in high season if you want a table at peak times.

For a first visit, come hungry and order several dishes to share, as the menu rewards exploration. Orthodox Easter is the biggest festival on Crete, and village panigyria mark saints' days through the summer, so timing a trip around one adds local colour. Ferries and high-speed catamarans link the islands to Piraeus, Rafina and each other, though winter services are fewer. Greek is the main language, written in the Greek alphabet, which also appears on road signs and menus.
