About Erganos
Small taverna in Heraklion serving traditional Cretan dishes cooked daily by the owner. The menu includes hard-to-find specialties like stifado (beef stew with pearl onions) and staka (cream made from goat's milk). Simple interior with focus entirely on the food quality.
Insider Tips
Arrive before 1:30pm for lunch or 8pm for dinner when the best dishes run out, and always ask what came out of the oven today.
