September 21, 2021Our visit to Elounda was prompted by the fact we had fallen in love with this little town and charming fishing port during our holiday in Crete last year. We... read more decided to try a different restaurant this time and chose Porto Rino as the menu looked bright and attractive with meal choices clearly shown in four languages including English. We were shown to a table by an English lady who told us she was married to the owner and had lived in Crete for over 30 years. the restaurant is a family business and it showed. The attention to service was excellent, the quality of the food was also very very good. We had a starters which we shared between us of crumbed prawns and local Greek delicacy of Saganki, this was followed by grilled large prawns, fries and salad again perfectly cooked and delicious. Would definitely recommend, it was obvious they were popular as the restaurant next doors was struggling to get people in.

We started coming to Porto Rino in 2009 and have returned to Elounda at least eleven times and each time, we go to Porto Rino at least three times. We... read more have never been disappointed. The pizzas and pasta dishes are the best we've ever had but as somebody else said don't just think of it as an Italian pizza pasta restaurant. The restaurant is owned and run by a wonderful Greek family and they produce fabulous Greek dishes as well as the usual International dishes. The restaurant is fronted by Dimitris and Louise and the customer service is absolutely superb even when the restaurant is extremely busy and it very often is. Food and customer service apart, what really stood out for us this year was the standard of hygiene. Despite the restaurant being very busy, as each table was vacated not only was the table top thoroughly cleaned, the sides, the legs and the chairs were also thoroughly cleaned. As each menu was handed back they were individually thoroughly cleaned as well. I haven't seen that level of cleanliness anywhere else in Greece or the UK.

The above lyrics of an old Willie Dixon song sprung to mind when we had our first lunch sometime in late-May early-June at the Porto Rino.
At first, there were all kinds of signs warning us against visiting Porto Rino.
The name for example: Port Fino sounds familiar, but Porto Rino? What gives?
Then there was the decoration and layout: quite touristy, without any local or "Eyetalian" character to match the menu.
Then, the final blow, the menu itself: extensive, almost too extensive (all kinds of fresh pasta and pizza, salads, starters, meats and seafood etc. etc.), with prices looking almost suspiciously affordable... Can such a restaurant be any good?
"Against all odds" we decided to give it a try because the place had warm and good vibes despite the omnipresent COVID-19 cautiousness.
The verdict? Well, it was good! In fact, it was very good, and still is after 5-6 weekly visits throughout June and July (and we plan to visit again quite a few more weekends during our brief escapes to eastern Crete this summer, since a more old-style vacation period somewhere in Greece or abroad is out of the question this year).
Port Rino's qualities worth mentioning include: the use of fresh and high quality ingredients, very good cooking skills, efficient, courteous and friendly service, a relaxed atmosphere, general cleanliness and adherence to hygienic rules and regulations and, last but not least, excellent price to quality ratio.
Obviously, for various reasons, I cannot answer yes to Tripadvisor's standardized question "Is this one of the best meals you've ever had in a restaurant?" However, each visit to Port Rino proves that this restaurant offers consistently high quality dining at very affordable prices with safety and decent atmosphere. I think this fact is much more important than having a one -time "one of the best meals you've ever had in a restaurant" only to be greatly disappointed the next time you visit that restaurant, at least, IMHO...
Needless to say that I highly recommend eating at Porto Rino to all like-minded travelers who value the above mentioned qualities.Phaedrus-Crete
