Ever found a place where dining is so leisure, fresh fish never runs out of menu and the music has the sound of the waves? To us, that place is Kertos Seafood Restaurant and it is located at the beach of Nea Chora in Chania. It is the place for genuine seafood lovers, but also for all those who are seeking an authentic seaside lunch or dinner based on quality and the purest ingredients that the island of Crete has to offer.
Kertos, as it is known on Crete or “Kiourtos” for the rest of Greece is a traditional fishing gear, handmade from weave reed. The bait used in the Kertos must be placed in a way, so as the fish cannot reach it from the outside. Therefore the fish are attracted and trapped into the Kertos. Located right on the beach of Nea Chora in Chania and inspired by this traditional fishing method, Kertos was born in 2015, as a result of our desire to create a restaurant that will offer you every day the best from the Cretan sea and land! Fresh seafood and fish, local delicacies and traditional Greek dishes, cooked with homegrown ingredients and an overabundance of personal care.
From the Cretan Sea to your plate! Our dishes strike the perfect balance between traditional homemade recipes and Mediterranean flavors to create a menu that includes a choice for everyone! Fresh fish and seafood from the fishermen of Nea Chora, locally sourced vegetables and refreshing salads, creative pasta and risotti, mouthwatering stuffed grape leaves, kalitsounia and other local appetizers and on top of that, an exceptional wine list, are just a few of the things that you will taste at Kertos.
Our seafood flavors will stick in your mind for a long time, making you reminisce about the scent and the taste of the sea even on the coldest winter days.
Kertos menu is a clear reflection of life in Crete. Local ingredients, wild herbs, recipes that go down from one generation to the next, authentic methods, tradition and the purest form of hospitality, all blended under a fresh perspective with a creative twist.
