In this family-run restaurant, you dine in the courtyard of a carefully constructed 16th century stone house complete with its own stone well. The extensive menu is liberally-interpreted Greek cuisine from all parts of the country with Mediterranean overtones. There are a number of soups which is a special treat, since they are not found often on Cretan menus. Enjoy such delicacies as the grilled rabbit with anthogalo cheese, grilled apaki (smoked pork) and haloumi, or the grilled veggies with honey and garlic. A real favorite is the chicken with ouzo and mastic. What a fabulous flavor combination.There is a myriad of interesting main dishes both traditional and a bit nouveau. Sauces are exceptionally fresh and inviting. The wine list is respectable, the menus very attractive and the service is extremely amiable and efficient.

It would be difficult to find any fault at all with this restaurant. Food, drink, service, ambience are without peer.
It is somewhere to which I will always return on my visits to Crete. I only wish that I visit more frequently!

Anyone visiting Rethymnon should not miss out on this lovely restaurant! Excellent service and a interesting choice of dishes, all excellently prepared.
We ate here a few times during our stay, and we loved it! The atmosphere is friendly, as are the prices! Our favourite place in Rethymnon!

Εχω περάσει απο τα περισσότερα εστιατόρια του Ρεθύμνου, αυτό το πιγάδι είναι τελικά μοναδική εμπειρία. Το φαγητό καταπλικτικό, ο χόρος μοναδικός, το σέρβις τέλειο, και πάνο απο όλα, το φαγιτό έρχεται στην ώρα του. Όλα είναι τέλεια. Μπράβο παιδιά...

Απιστευτα πιάτα, απίστευτο σέρβις, πολύ όμορφη ατμόσφαιρα, πολύ καλές τιμές, τι άλλο να ζητήσεις. Απλά ήταν μιά θαυμάσια εμπειρία.

To top off our wonderful week in Crete, we celebrated our last evening in The Well (To Pigadi)restaurant. The romantic atmosphere of the old stone walls, the wonderful dishes and friendly service made for a very special evening indeed. There is so much choice on the menu that you would have to come back and eat night after night. Can hardly wait to come back!
