Petite Fleur

During our recent stay in Rethymnon, Crete, we had the pleasure of dining at Petite Fleur, located at Eleftheriou Venizelou 36. This charming Mediterranean and Greek restaurant, renowned for its healthy and vegetarian-friendly options, turned out to be a highlight of our trip.

Upon arriving, we were immediately taken by the restaurant’s cozy and inviting atmosphere, with its stylish bistro decor and beautiful views of the sea. The friendly staff welcomed us warmly, and our server, Joyce, provided exceptional service throughout our meal.

We started with a delightful basket of gluten-free bread, which set a high standard for the rest of the meal. For appetizers, we shared the beetroot carpaccio and the crab salad, both of which were beautifully presented and bursting with flavor.

For our main courses, I opted for the ribeye steak, cooked to perfection and served with grilled vegetables. My partner chose the salmon, which was perfectly cooked and accompanied by a delicious sauce that enhanced its flavors. The attention to detail in each dish was evident, and the quality of the ingredients truly shone through.

The wine list was extensive, and Joyce was knowledgeable and helpful in recommending a perfect pairing for our meals. We also appreciated the thoughtful touch of offering different types of salts to complement the steak.

To finish our meal, we indulged in the lemon tart and were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary serving of raki, a traditional Cretan digestif. The desserts were light, refreshing, and a perfect end to a fantastic dining experience.

Overall, our visit to Petite Fleur was nothing short of exceptional. The combination of exquisite food, attentive service, and a beautiful setting made for an unforgettable evening. Whether you’re visiting Rethymnon for a special occasion or simply looking for a great meal, we highly recommend Petite Fleur.
