Taverna Sto Scolio
About
In Crete, Taverna Sto Scolio occupies a spot on PEO Kissamou Chanion, Platanias 730 06, Greece.
The restaurant serves Greek island cooking in the Platanias area, west of Chania along the coastal road. It is known for grilled meats and seafood prepared in the local style, with olive oil and local cheeses central to the menu. Chania sits among the nearby places that frame a visit, alongside Rethymno, Heraklion, Agios Nikolaos, Ierapetra, Sitia, Matala and Elafonisi.
First-time visitors should expect a casual taverna setting, where the focus falls on the food and the company rather than on formality. A 4.7/5 rating from 462 reviews places it among the more popular tables in the area. The menu draws on seafood, olive oil, feta and other local cheeses, and grilled meats, the staples of cooking across the Greek islands.
Greek is the main language, written in the Greek alphabet, which also appears on road signs and menus, so a little familiarity helps when ordering. Ferries and high-speed catamarans connect 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.
