Kreta in Norden

Plenty of ouzo and top-notch food! Always worth a visit!

Super delicious food, large selection. Very nice service, always happy.

Went to our favorite Greek restaurant again on Sunday. The food is top. The quality of the meat is unsurpassable and very plentiful. The price-performance ratio is unique. The service was super friendly and accommodating. We love the dark tapped Krombacher. Soon we'll go outside again to the garden terrace.

We were just eating at the Crete restaurant. The food was very, very good, the portions were huge and the prices could have been higher. The service was excellent. If it were possible, I would have given one more star.

Unfortunately we discovered this place too late. It always looked so dark. Now we enjoy the great food, it has become our favorite Greek.

It was really nice again and the food was really tasty. Absolutely recommended.

Hello, the food at Crete North is great, the first time I ate it hot and always felt very comfortable

Were in Crete for the first time. All the waitresses were very attentive and the food was simply delicious. We'd love to come back.

The food is good as always. The staff are all very friendly. And if you like, you can get ouzo here until you want

Delicious, as always. Friendly and courteous service.

Last Saturday (02/15/25) the four of us spontaneously went to Crete. Although the restaurant was very busy, we received the food we ordered from the absolutely friendly team within a very short time. The dishes were rich, deliciously prepared, the meat was tender, overall a poem. Every now and then someone came by to inquire about further requests or to offer us more ouzo. If there was one mistake that evening, it was that we might have been better off skipping the great appetizers. Two of us then "rolled to the car", the smarter ones had their leftovers packed up and enjoyed them the next day. We can really recommend Crete for a lovely evening!

We ordered takeaway food. Look friendly on the phone. With the words “You can pick up immediately” we then set off. Arrived...entered... Full house. Were greeted very friendly and asked to wait a moment. An ouzo was immediately delivered to the house. Just scheduled...food ready. The very nice lady checked whether everything was ok with the order. is. I then asked for debit card payment. The EC device was brought out including two Ouzo to go and a treat for our dog. Now about the food. Very, very tasty. We will definitely come back and can only recommend this great restaurant.

First-class quality, the food tastes very tasty. The staff is very friendly and attentive.

Everything was really TOP. We'll be back

The Kreta restaurant in Norden offers a diverse selection of Greek dishes. The dishes are prepared from high-quality ingredients and taste well balanced. Portions are generous and the menu covers a wide range of classic Greek specialties. The service is friendly and attentive. The restaurant is traditionally furnished and creates a pleasant atmosphere.

On February 1st, 2025 we had the pleasure of dining at Restaurant Kreta and it was a thoroughly positive experience. We felt very welcome when we made the reservation at 5 p.m. for two people with a dog, which was made spontaneously and without any problems. The welcome was warm, and before we were even seated our dog was given a small, wrapped roll of meat - a loving gesture that we really appreciated! The food was excellent - generous portions, served quickly and at the same time. The taste was simply excellent and every bite was a delight. You can immediately tell that the cooking here is done with great attention to detail. The entire service was attentive and friendly, and we felt completely at home. We can only warmly recommend Restaurant Crete and will certainly come back!

Sehr gutes und reichliches Essen, freundlicher unf schneller Service, alles in allem ein gelungener Abend beim Griechen. Wir kommen gern wieder.

Meat could have used a little more heat but a great place

Great restaurant where the food is fantastic and people and dogs feel comfortable.

Overall it was good and recommended. The food was totally fine for the price; Tasty, sufficient but nothing extraordinary. Prices for drinks may be a bit high but, well, where aren't they? But you could get more than one ouzo for free.

Here you can get the best calamari and very attentive service!

The food was great as always 👍👍👍. Conditions are always very friendly. We like to go there 😊

On our Norddeich holidays, an evening in Crete is always on the agenda. Same this year. Of course we made reservations in advance. Already from home. We know what's going on there. I have to say I liked it even more this year than in previous years. We had a platter for 2 people. The food came quickly, was hot and tasty. Of course also plenty. From a logistical point of view, Boss delivers top performance there. It was soooo full, unbelievable. The phone rang continuously. Nevertheless, we didn't have the impression that it wasn't working and that people were annoyed. This is not the case everywhere in Norddeich. We sat right at the counter and it was a pleasure to watch how everything was coordinated. Despite the stress, the waitresses were friendly, quick and precise. Well, the boss doesn't blabber around. He instructs and it just works. I don't know how you can tap wheat so quickly, maybe they were already tapped, I couldn't see that, but it was really good all around. We'd love to come back.

Na ja, gut ist anders, das Gyros war gut, alles andere sehr salzig. Von der Chefin wurde der Hinweis nicht ernst genommen, schade. Dafür mussten wir mehr Getränke bestellen.

We had a delicious meal here on New Year's Day. The price-performance ratio is definitely right here. The staff is very friendly. The food came quickly and was great. We'd love to come back.

Heute zu Silvester 24 zum Essen im Kreta gewesen. Mörderportion zu top Preisen. Das Gyros war erstklassig. Der gebackene Schafskäse zur Vorspeise super, hätte schon gereicht, zwinker. Zum Glück wurde Uzo immer nach geschenkt, wer gut schmier der gut fährt.

Super! From start to finish! The service is great, everyone is very nice! The food tasted very good and the portions were more than sufficient. And the ouzo is also very tasty, the glass keeps being filled. 🇬🇷

5 scenes because I can't give it a 6.

No visit to the north without having been here 👌🏻

Always delicious 😋 gladly again

Also wir waren heute da.sehr gemütliches Ambiente .Essen war hervorragend .Es gab nix dran auszusetzen .Bedienung war sehr zuvor kommend .Preis Leistung unschlagbar gut .Immer wieder gern wieder .Macht weiter so .

Very tasty food, great service. Gladly again

Spitzen Bedienung. Spitzen Essen. Kann man nur weiter empfehlen. Entlich wieder ohne Maske. Immernoch alles TOP. Wir kommen wieder.

It was a great evening. Food, service, everything was very good 👍 Definitely coming back!!!!

A very nice Greek restaurant. It was our first time eating here and we weren't disappointed. As a precaution, we reserved 2 places and that was a good thing, we probably wouldn't have gotten a place spontaneously. The service was very friendly and attentive, the processes were quick and there were no long waiting times despite the restaurant being full. We liked the food very much and had no complaints, just as you would expect. If we're in the area again and want to eat out, we'll be happy to come back. Thank you for the lovely evening.

Food delicious, service great, atmosphere pleasant... Gladly again

Delicious food, large portions, attentive service 6 euros for an Erdinger is too expensive

Very nice and quick staff. Our food was on the table about 10 minutes after ordering. Very tasty and good portions.

Strongly recommend the dish with small noodles and lamb! We also took the mixed antipasti and it was so refreshing and huge, more than enough for two people.

It was tasty, but you had the feeling of eating quickly, paying and leaving again.

Were in Crete for the first time. Absolutely recommended, from the service to the food. You should definitely make a reservation by phone because Crete is really well attended. We would love to come back and look forward to the next time.

I ordered something to pick up here for the first time today. All I can say is that I rarely... STOP! Rarely would be a lie... I have NEVER eaten Greek so well! Simply outstanding food. 10 out of 5 stars :-)

Simply great. Great food and top service. Always great

Large parking lot around the corner. Food was tasty, rich and good. It was served quickly. My daughter wanted the starter platter as the main course which wasn't a problem, that's what good service looks like. There was plenty of ouzo from the friendly staff. Ambience is fine, you feel comfortable. I will definitely eat there again.

Super tasty and plentiful food Unfortunately I was on a motorcycle... Plenty of free ouzo... Guaranteed to be back on your next vacation I recommend making a reservation!

Super tasty food with a great price/performance ratio - especially for a tourist place like Norden. The service is great - quick and friendly. The ambience is okay, but the "hall" a little further back is very cluttered with tables etc. This makes it seem a bit overcrowded and not so comfortable. But this is quickly made up for by the good food and the ouzo that is always on offer. 😊

Great service, delicious food but a bit too hectic for me personally.

The food is super tasty, the service is very nice and attentive.

+++Addendum 10.24+++ The food was delicious and the portions were sufficient. I still think the prices are excessive. Coke 0.4 for €5.50 is already a house number and then not even up to the calibration mark. +++Addendum 08.24+++ Then we were there again, Ordered 2x gyros gratinated with Metaxa sauce and 1x gyros. The gyros with Metaxa taste different than the one without. There wasn't Metaxa on the gyros everywhere, so it was easy to compare. The portions were rather small and therefore I think it was overpriced. The sauce doesn't really taste like Metaxa sauce, there's just very little on it. Unfortunately there is also very little cheese. Sorry but that was probably nothing 😞 Pictures say more than a thousand words. The food was great, the meat was soft and juicy with great roasted aromas. The gyro was nicely browned. The portions are more than sufficient. The price is reasonable. Facilities inside and out are simply great. The service is super friendly and also responds to requests. We'd love to come back☺️

Highly recommended, cozy atmosphere, service staff very attentive and friendly. Plus delicious food at more than affordable prices. We visited this restaurant as tourists and would like to come back at any time.

It's a beautiful place with a Greek atmosphere. I recommend it for eating with family and friends

Wer gerne sehr gut griechisch essen geht, Gastfreundschaft schätzt und ein angenehmes Ambiente genießen möchte, der kommt am Kreta nicht vorbei. Von der Vorspeise bis zum Dessert über den Ouzo aufs Haus hinaus schmeckt alles grandios. Zartes Fleisch was dennoch knusprig ist, krosse Pommes und eine feine Metaxasoße. Sehr netter Service, Hunde erlaubt (drinnen und auf der wunderschönen Terrasse). Absolute Empfehlung!

Great Greek restaurant with a beer garden behind the house. We liked the friendly and attentive service as well as the classic Greek selection from the menu. The food was also very tasty and was accompanied by a free ouzo before and after. We felt very comfortable and will be happy to come back.

We had food delivered for two people last night. This was a platter for 2, two starters and two side dishes. Everything was high quality and very tasty. I thought we were good eaters so far, but we couldn't manage these large portions. That's why we're eating warmed up today and it's delicious, which I'm looking forward to. After this experience, I would order from Crete again at any time and can fully recommend the food. If you like cheese, you should definitely try Kritiko (baked cheese).

Super tasty, really nice service, always happy!

Everything great. The food is very enjoyable and the service is excellent. Highly recommended. Thank you very much

What a great shop. The food was great, I've never had better liver anywhere and there was a constant supply of drinks. In addition, the portions are really enough to eat. Gladly again

Everything was great...simply delicious and great service. You can get one or two or three ouzos on the house. Only recommended

Very good restaurant, very good service....very happy to come again

Very nice restaurant, great service and very good food

Went there spontaneously and have to say it was really great. We know a lot of good Greeks but everything was great here. People top chef top food excellent 😄 when we are here in the north again we will come back 😄 Thanks

The food is always great. Generous with Ouso. If we take our dog 🐶🐕 with us, the bosses and staff are extremely animal-friendly.

I was there for the first time today, the food was served very quickly. And was very tasty. If I go on holiday here again I'll go back.

Top dishes very tasty, service top The ouzo is very good, but be careful the host is very generous while you are there. Good thing my wife drove👍👍 Conclusion: Highly recommended. We will definitely be guests there again on our next vacation👌👌👌

Delicious food, good portion, nice service

A culinary highlight! The Crete restaurant in the north is an absolute insider tip for lovers of Greek cuisine. The dishes are authentic and prepared with a lot of love. The grill plates and the fresh mezedes are particularly recommended. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, which makes the visit even more enjoyable. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting – you immediately feel at home. A must for anyone who appreciates good food and warm service!

Ich war kürzlich mit Freunden hier. Das Restaurant ist sehr gemütlich, der Aussenbereich top. Auch Hunde sind hier herzlich willkommen. Die Preise scheinen auf den ersten Blick etwas hoch, was sich aber schnell relativiert. Die Portionen waren wirklich sehr gross und lecker. Zudem war das Personal sehr nett und aufmerksam. Auch Ouzo "aufs Haus" gab es reichlich. Dieses Restaurant ist bei unserem Besuch in Norden ein Muss.

Went there many years ago but the quality has deteriorated a lot. Hellas is much better. The fries were hard.

Delicious food and good service

Very attractive and hospitable restaurant. You will be welcomed warmly and shown to your seat with a smile. On weekends you should reserve in advance although if you arrive at opening time at 5pm they will try to offer you a spot. The service is on the ball and always with a smile. The selection of food is large and so are the portions. Special requests are of course taken into account. The little guests are also looked after lovingly. There are no long waiting times and these are shortened with an ouzo. We felt very comfortable. All in all, highly recommended for a nice end to the evening.

What a great restaurant... Ate and drank very well. Rarely have I had such a juicy and well-seasoned gyro. As a welcome you had the first ouzo, after which you were asked again and again if you would like another ouzo. We were thrilled with the service and the friendliness of the staff. The restaurant can be recommended without reservation. We'll definitely be back.

Very nice and dog-friendly staff

Very nice staff - the food was delicious - it's nice that you can sit outside! We keep coming back!

Very good Greek restaurant. Gladly again. Table reservation recommended.

Very nice service, food great, we'll be back

Food was great, everything was very well done. Everything around it is good too. Absolutely recommended

We were made very welcome and we ate very well. The dishes are well served!

A very cozy restaurant. Staff very friendly and the food delicious and recommended. We were also there with 15 people and everyone got their food at the same time. Super If I lived nearby, it would be my new local bar. Whenever I'm in the area again, I'd love to come by.

Cozy, good and plentiful! This is especially true for the free ouzo. When I was a guest there, it was done the way Köbes does with Kölsch in Cologne: when the glass is empty, more is poured straight away! Unfortunately, after the third ouzo I had to give up because I still had to drive :)

Always nice and cozy and very tasty 😋

We had a wonderful evening with you today. The food was great. Price performance unbeatable. We felt very comfortable. Your hospitality is wonderful. Efharisto

There is nothing to add to the previous 5 star reviews. The service in particular is excellent. Lots of international service staff who make your stay as pleasant as possible. Here you don't feel welcome but rather invited. Even our two dogs were treated like guests. Great, it doesn't get any better.

Good Greek, great menu, even vegetarians were thought of. Ouzo is constantly being refilled, crazy! It was fun with you and it was delicious. Thank you very much!

Very good food, great service, 100% satisfied, happy to come again

Food super tasty. Service very friendly and accommodating.

The food was very good 😊 and the staff was great. We would love to come back 😊😊

Come from the Sauerland. Come to Norddeich often. Then it's natural to visit the Crete restaurant in the north. Great class restaurant. There is the best sheep's cheese I know. Everything else is great too! The waitresses were very nice! Full 5 stars from me.!!!!! See you soon.

This is our second week in the north and we ate in this great restaurant almost every day. Will go there again and tomorrow on our last evening. Unfortunately, unfortunately. The food was and is fantastic, varied and the staff, including the boss, were nice and very hospitable. We look forward to seeing you again next year at the latest and wish you all the best and stay healthy. Caro and Wolfgang from Rüdesheim am Rhein

Probably the best Greek restaurant I've ever been to. If there were 10 stars, I would give it 10 stars. From the service to the food, everything was impeccable. They are also extremely dog-friendly. Thank you!

We were made aware of this restaurant during our vacation in Norddeich. Nice service, the food is excellent! But be careful: if you drink the Ouzo glass at the beginning of your visit, the landlord will quickly give you a generous refill... ;-) Absolute recommendation!

Very tasty food. Price performance was top. Had a platter for 2 people for 42 euros. Everything was on it including lamb chops. Large portion. We were offered Quzo for free three times. Dogs were welcome and immediately given water and a treat. Were there on vacation. otherwise this would be my regular place. Absolute recommendation.

This Greek restaurant is highly recommended. We were there with a stroller and were greeted in a very friendly manner and escorted to the table. The service staff were very friendly and helpful. The food is very deserving of the name Greek. As a starter we had tzatziki with bread, which was by far the tastiest tzatziki. The main course was a plate of various meats, rice and chips. Highly recommended.

We have never had such good Greek food outside of Greece! As soon as we arrived we were allocated a seat in the great atmosphere of the restaurant. The reception and the entire service during the stay was super nice! Children are given a lot of attention and are included in many things. Every now and then someone came around and filled the glasses with ouzu. You immediately felt like you were on Crete, where this hospitality is always the order of the day! All that was missing was the raki, then the restaurant would have lived up to its name "Crete". 😉 To eat: I have never been served such freshly prepared Greek food in Germany! The gyros, suflaki and beef were very tender and well prepared. As well as the side dishes, salads, tzatziki and other dips/sauces and starters. If we lived here, this would probably be our regular restaurant. Unfortunately we live too far away and who knows when we'll be in the area again. But then we'll definitely come back! 😃 Addendum: Today we went to this great restaurant for the second time on our vacation. Like last time, everything was great and the waitresses were very friendly throughout! We'll be back as soon as we can get it set up.

Man findet viele vegetarische Optionen. Ein schöne Terrasse, freundliche Personal. Wir (2 Personen) haben 2x gegessen: das letzte mal mit ein grosses Salat und drei andere Vorspeisen dazu. Alles sehr lecker!

Very nice, dog-friendly staff. Always happy to come here…

The food was very, very tasty. We had the Artemis plate and chicken breast with Metaxa sauce. And the service is very nice and friendly. We would definitely like to come back. Epharisto poli

The food was very tasty, just great. Requests are addressed without any problems.

Fantastic!!! We were here today with 4 people. The 5 stars started with the welcome, continued through the very good food and the service! If we could, we would give the service 6 stars too. This restaurant is simply top. We'll definitely be back.

The 2nd time in Crete…. the 2nd time completely thrilled with the service, food and ambience, great keep it up

Very satisfied, the food was great
