  Our 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 visited last night at 9pm and the restaurant was busy with only a few tables inside. We asked if we could come back in 30mins and they said they’d... read more have a nice table ready. We came back and got a table right at the front.

Service was very friendly throughout and made an effort with our children.

We shared a garlic pizza bread between 4 and it was nice and plenty of it.

Pesto pasta was huge, tasty and fresh.
Carbonara was simple and delicious.
Mussel and shrimp pasta was good. Plenty of huge prawns.

Local wine was fine and reasonably priced.

Kids got complimentary ice cream and sweets abs the walnut cake that came with our bill was lovely too. Very pleasant evening.

  We had lunch and it was ok, the menu has very different options from Greek cuisine to vegan hamburgers and pasta. Nice waiters and good value.

  Not much to add to my previous review. Porto Rino is probably the safest restaurant around Elounda and offers delicious food at very reasonable prices.

  Thank you ! Very nice place ! Good food and the lady is adorable (with a perfect English accent) :) !

  We ate in here four or five times in August as usual. Always felt safe - the restrictions were ALWAYS adhered to.

The menu is extensive and worth a... read more good look through - admittedly this trip we stuck to pizza, pasta and salads, but there is little we've not tried over the years.

The food is great and the staff are wonderful - friendly, professional and knowledgeable.

  We were very fortunate to find this family ran restaurant on our first evening in Elounda. We arrived late in the town starving, the menu offered a great selection of... read more traditional Cretan dishes as well as delicious wood fired pizzas. We shared a homemade moussaka and lamb kelftiko. Both were well made, delicious and definitely used traditional recipes. The service was very warm friendly and efficient.

Every waiter had protective gear on and I... read more say them disinfecting the menus on a regular basis.

  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.

  This restaurant is lovely and very friendly, we visited most days for lunch as it’s a ideal location from the beach. A very good selection from the menu.
Would recommend... read more this restaurant and will visit again, hopefully next year.
