About Peskesi

Heraklion restaurant focused on forgotten Cretan recipes and heirloom ingredients sourced from the owners' organic farm. The menu changes with the seasons and features dishes cooked in a wood-fired oven. Everything from the olive oil to the wine comes from small Cretan producers.

Insider Tips

Order the tasting menu to try dishes like stamnagathi (wild greens) and apaki (smoked pork) that rarely appear in tourist restaurants.
