This atmospheric small taverna in a renovated old house is located in the heart of the bustling central square of the village, with a rustic interior and tables on the square. On a Sunday lunch, well-heeled Herakliates come to village square to see and be seen. On order are a large variety of local mezedes (starters) and meat dishes, all artfully cooked.

The house wines are from the local cooperative, and are imminently drinkable, especially the white on a hot summer day.
