Worst restaurant in Sitia I ordered the vegan risotto which was supposed to be a mushroom risotto. The plate that came was a kind of rice soup thing without any mushrooms. The rice was overcooked and it was swimming in water. When I told the waiter that they seemed to have forgotten to add the mushrooms, he told me that “there was a typo on the menu” and “this is how we normally make it”. He didn’t seem to have any intentions of either correcting this “typo” or adding mushrooms to my plate. The other vegetables seemed like they came from a bag of frozen mixed veggies. This dish was a parody on a risotto and shouldn’t bare the name of one. Furthermore, the appetizers arrived cold and I was charged for bread that i didnt order. The bread came before the meal and the other restaurants in Sitia do this for free so i didn’t think twice about it. It came with rancid olives, hummus which tasted too much tahini and some tasteless pickled beetroot. TL;DR: watery mushroom risotto without mushrooms and cold appetizers.
