Taverna Kreta in Flensburg

Very tasty food, very friendly and attentive staff

We ate here during our vacation with a reservation. The food was delicious and tastefully presented. The value for money was also good. The service was very friendly and helpful. The restrooms were clean.

Very tasty and very friendly service. Highly recommend.

We wanted to eat here, but unfortunately we don't accept card payments.

Really nice traditional Greek food and nice waiters and fast service

We ordered a platter for two people because we'd seen it was one of the best Greek restaurants in Flensburg. But I can't confirm that; the delivery time was very long. Very little food, and that for €60. Way too little!!! And too expensive - the food was okay. But you don't need to do it again. There are much better Greek restaurants that really boast and are amazing.

Delicious greek food, nice atmosphere and great service. Nice ouzo also, which we got for free with our drinks. Really recommend:)

I go to Taverna Kreta several times a month and can only say: absolutely recommended! The atmosphere is warm and authentic – you always feel like you're on vacation in Crete. The team is incredibly friendly and attentive, and you're always greeted with a smile. The food is consistently excellent: I particularly enjoy the grilled dishes and traditional appetizers – but basically everything here is delicious! Keep up the good work! :-)

The restaurant impresses with its ambiance. Its decor is very nice. You can sit inside or outside on the terrace. The service staff is very friendly. The portions were more than sufficient. There were six of us, and we all enjoyed our meal. Highly recommended.

Delicious food, nice service and cozy

Deliciously friendly...great. Cheers

Generous tasty portions, an authentic family business from the 70s with a great atmosphere and food straight from the grill. We were served extra tzatziki, salad, fries and liquor. All in all a pleasant experience too!

Quick service and the food was excellent. Had a brief chat with the owner, who was very kind and genuinely friendly. Highly recommended!

Atmospheric restaurant, very friendly staff and above all really delicious food. Really recommended!

Delicious food, good service, and reasonable prices. However, the gyros was a bit weak on my last visit.

Lovely food, large portions...a bit too big if you're not a big man😄

Enjoyed a delicious meal in a pleasant atmosphere.

Highly recommended. Very friendly staff and excellent food. It's also a very nice location. The prices, in my opinion, are in line with the quality. I couldn't find anything negative, and we had a great time there.

A very nice restaurant with very friendly service. Even without a reservation, you can easily dine here with a small group. Good parking is available within a 5-10 minute walk.

Very nice food the best and most smiling staff very nice atmosphere

Delicious food. Friendly service and reasonable prices.

I visit Taverna Kreta once or twice a month and am always extremely satisfied! My food is always delicious, the service is extremely friendly, and I feel very comfortable in the atmosphere.

I don't understand the good reviews. The food tasted completely overseasoned and was obviously burnt. Maybe it was just because it was very busy. It took another 30 minutes before we could pay. If you make a reservation in advance, you won't have to wait.

Really nice place. Would love to come again.

I'm disappointed because they don't offer anything vegan and aren't able to put together anything properly. They sell everything separately and charge a lot for it. I can't recommend them.

Good restaurant. Greetings from the people of Stuttgart

Jedes mal, wenn wir in Flensburg sind, gehen wir hier Essen. Jedes mal eine Top Qualität der Speisen. Inhaber, Lokal, Ambiente einfach Top. Gastfreundlicher Grieche. Immer wieder gerne. Gruss die Stuttgarter Stammgäste

Herrliche Atmosphäre mit toller Crew Essen seid Jahrzehnten top. Vielen Dank weiter so.🤩😍PILAVAS Ouzo im Ausschank😍🤩

Great atmosphere, absolutely delicious food for decades. Many thanks to the crew😍🤩

Amazing experience, waiters are very friendly and food is absolutely perfect. The portions are so filling that I even had dinner from the leftovers the next day. Would definitely go again!

It was very tasty, the service was fast, the portion was large and most importantly very tasty. The atmosphere is very cozy, everything is decorated very well. The service is excellent, but unfortunately payment is only possible in cash! I can only recommend!!!

The food was plentiful and delicious! Highly recommended!

Hyggelig atmosfære, flinke tjener men maden var ikke noget at håbe hurra for. Oplevede det meste som take away. Kedelig tzatziki, ris var overkogte uden smag. Man kan desværre ikke bruge VISA kort, kun kontanter.

Amzing Food.. Nice Ambience and Lovely Staff...😍

Fantastisk service och mat. Vi var på en shoppingresa och hittade denna härliga grekiska restaurang. Vi kan starkt rekommendera detta ställe!

Super oplevelse. Intimt sted med rigtig god græsk mad. Der var masser af kød på en grilltallerken, og prisen er helt ok. Service var i top, og øllen smagte fantastisk i de realistiske omgivelser.

Finally arrived (again) looking for a really good Greek restaurant. I have been a Greek cuisine junkie for many years and was now almost desperate to find a taverna in Flensburg and the surrounding area that not only mastered one or two disciplines, but was good all around. I knew where to get decent bifteki, whose gyros were passable, and that no one seemed to be able to make souflaki that wasn't dry. But! Taverna Crete can do that! And Susukakia. And gyros. And lamb. And liver! And coleslaw. And tomato rice. And Metaxa sauce - which I've already been offered in some other places - defies description. Here she is fine; In general, the three of us had nothing(!) on our plates that wasn't exceptionally good. It's just crazy that this was pretty much my last attempt; because I was “hooked” in Taverna Crete at the time. Back then I was still a plug, got my first gyros there and haven't been able to live without it (for long) since then ;-). But somehow it was never “on the way” for me. No matter - this restaurant is definitely worth a longer detour. Table has already been ordered for next time... EDIT: Been there several times now. Time for the sixth star - they make the Béarnaise themselves! O_o A butter sauce made with raw egg! You have to be able to do that - and have the courage. This is usually reserved for the high price level. Chapeau; On top of that, it tastes great.

Fantastic food. Great service and atmosphere

We really liked it, the food was delicious and the service was nice, price performance was very good.

Friendly service, nice ambiance, but the meat was soggy. As a Greek fan, I'd give it a 5. Unfortunately, I can't recommend it.

4 times Parisian plates. 3 with fries, 1 with rice and fries. 4 large cola. TOP 😁

Highly recommended, world class food, friendly staff, beautiful atmosphere. We'll definitely be back. 😍

Very good food, very good atmosphere. The only thing that spoiled the image of the restaurants was that the service was a bit inattentive. But all in all a very nice restaurant

Very nice Greek restaurant with great service. Spent a lovely evening there

Delicious food, generous portions, attentive and friendly service and all at reasonable prices. The only negative point is the high temperatures in the restaurant when there is a lot going on

Best Greek in and around Flensburg.

Great food and lovely staff. Just remember to bring your cash as they do not accept cards.

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Abend in der Taverne Kreta! Das Essen war absolut köstlich – von den frisch zubereiteten Vorspeisen bis hin zum perfekt gegrillten Fleisch und Fisch. Besonders die Gyros und die Lammgerichte haben uns begeistert. Der Service war äußerst freundlich und aufmerksam, man fühlt sich hier wirklich willkommen. Die Atmosphäre ist gemütlich und authentisch – genau so, wie man es sich in einer griechischen Taverne wünscht. Wir kommen definitiv wieder und können dieses Restaurant jedem empfehlen, der die griechische Küche liebt! Vielen Dank für den tollen Abend!

What else can I say? I'm always happy to be there. The food is, as always, perfect and the waiters are very friendly

The food was great, the service was great and I would be happy to go back. I can only recommend it 🫡🫡🫡🫡

Super seriously disappointed. We ordered food on Saturday (2/1/25). Two gyros plates, the gyros smelled like fish. Our women ordered a large salad for €14, which is ok, but the salad was a joke, a slice of cucumber, a lettuce leaf, a few onions, pepperoni and feta. There was so little in it, it was more of a side dish. After calling, the boss stammered that he had already made 150 portions of gyros today and no one had complained, but he was sending up another large portion of gyros. After 5 minutes he called back and said it wouldn't work because it was too late. Again absolutely disrespectful to customers, with the food and the service, in my opinion this is just being ripped off. And then the wrong delivery was made, instead of two meat skewers, two Bifteki were delivered. Definitely never again, thanks for nothing!!!!! If you could give zero points, I would give it

Food was very tasty and plentiful! Of course there was also an ouzo with the meal. We'd love to come back.

Great Greek, highly recommended.

We were in Flensburg as tourists and ate today in the Taverna Kreta. We were thrilled. Great ambience, delicious food and drinks. Very attentive and friendly staff. If we didn't live so far away, this would become our “home Greek”.

Great place to be, sorry I didn’t put pictures of the great before,☺️☺️☺️but I can say, it was definitely delicious, we ordered no 222,27,21 and 45✅✅✅✅✅

Centrally located taverna near the city center. Friendly staff and a rustic atmosphere. Unfortunately, the dishes we ordered lacked some pizzazz and spice... and all the drinks could have been colder! Nevertheless, Taverna Kreta is a solid Greek restaurant.

Because of the positive reviews, I was looking forward to the food. Unfortunately I had to wait over 45 minutes for the food. This was ok, but nothing special in terms of taste. The price for the portion of the food was very good considering the quantity. The taverna is generally very cramped and sometimes overcrowded because there were other people waiting for a table everywhere (at the counter or at the transitions to higher levels). There was only one toilet for women, the other was closed. The table was cleared late and some leftovers were simply left and picked up later. Whether empty drinks or the plates after eating. To pay you had to go to the cash register. Only cash payment possible.

The food was very good, there was enough on the plate and the price-performance ratio was good. It is cheeky to charge more than 5 euros for the side dish 'Metaxasauce'. Unfortunately our reception yesterday wasn't so nice. We had reserved a table for 6:30 p.m. and were directed to a table in the entrance area because our actual table was still occupied. We were told that we would then be seated at our table. After 15 minutes we were brought cards and told that we should now sit where we were dropped off at the beginning. When we asked whether it was possible to get the other table, the answer was bluntly that we would have to wait another 15 minutes. So we had to wait 30 minutes for a table that we had actually reserved… I suspect that after a short thought the service staff came to the realization and after 2 minutes (all of a sudden) we were offered our reserved table...

Super tasty. Thank you for the lovely evening

Everything was great! Price/performance is right here and the boss is very friendly. We just waited a little long for the food, but that wasn't so bad! Gladly again!

Det skulle have været en speciel god oplevelse, men det blev faktisk det modsatte... Vi var 10 mand. De glemte 2 forretter og de kom efter vi måtte spørge når de andre var færdige deres forret... ekstra drikkevarer vi bestilte blev glemt flere gange... kaffen var fis lunken og måttes byttes... den "obligatoriske" urzo måtte vi spørge om vi måtte få... betalte heldigvis med euro ellers ville det koste 248kr ekstra i forhold til kurs.. vi kom af med 510euro hvilket er ok men havde jeg betalt i danske kr så var beløbet ifølge kvitteringen 4086,40 hvilket er 7% ekstra og det synes jeg er noget decideret svineri.

Again a good meal. We will come again, again and again. Since 1986. 👍😋

The waiter could only understand a little German. Payment can only be made with cash and if you want to pay with kroner, they charge a real Jewish rate of 8.20 kroner for one euro. Rude I think.

There is the best service on site and we always go home happy. Also recommended as a delivery service.

anytime and again. Staff accommodating and friendly, food delicious - that's all you need to have a nice evening.

best greak food ive honestly ever had. We are from denmark and this is the ONLY place we visit when we got to flensburg. The food is incredible, the resturant is super cozy and the portions are great. You are not leaving hungry. That is for sure.

Always a pleasure to eat here. Good food, good prices, a smiling and pleasant staff☺️

As always a pleasure, good food and good for children will always eat too much. Remember to pay in cash or Paypal only

There's something Nordic about it thanks to the dark wood paneling inside, but also a nice outside terrace. However, we were very disappointed with the food, so instead of 1l of wine we only received 0.75, the salad was very over salted and the bifteki was burnt black on one side. They tried to hide this with tons of Metaxa sauce and when asked they said it was from the grill and had to look like that. Overall, I can't recommend the taverna.

Delicious food, nice and friendly staff. It is not possible to pay by card.

We ordered food today. It was super delicious 🤤 again and again 🙏🏽

Great. Will return. Huge portions at low prices.

Small and inconspicuous from the outside...I was greeted warmly as soon as I walked in and the food was delicious and plentiful. The cherry on the cake was the ouzo “Jamas!”. We are full and happy😇

Delicious food Friendly staff Would love to come back

It was very, very tasty, would be happy again

Sehr großzügige Portionen zu moderaten Preisen. Wie immer sehr freundlich bei den Griechen und einen Ouzo gratis. Moussaka sehr lecker

Very tasty food at moderate prices. The portions were very generous. And as usual, a free ouzo

Very nice Greeks with authentic food. The decor is a bit too woody/dark and you have to like the constant music. But we felt very comfortable.

The two of us went to Taverna Kreta on a Thursday evening, which exuded a cozy atmosphere with pleasant lighting and beautiful decorations. We had a very nice, attentive waitress who took our order quickly. The food also came quickly, we didn't wait half an hour. Speaking of which: We had the souvlaki and the stuffed bifteki and I've never had a better Greek meal. The fries were crispy, the tzatziki was delicious and the meat was very well seasoned and cooked. There was also four ouzo on the house. We will definitely come back soon :)

Delicious food, large portions, cozy and stylish atmosphere and very nice service! Gyros and souflaki are really good in terms of meat, well prepared and deliciously seasoned. The breaded eggplant and zucchini are also recommended. The tzatziki didn't skimp on garlic. We particularly liked the option of getting a tomato salad instead of a normal side salad for a small extra charge.

Hier kann man einen gemütlichen Abend verbringen. Das Restaurant ist gemütlich, eher rustikal aber doch liebevoll eingerichtet. Das Essen war super gut und lecker. Sehr nette Bedienung. Hier kann man sich wirklich wohl fühlen und bei leckerem Essen den Abend ausklingen lassen.

Very nice and friendly staff, great food, fairly prices. We will visit it again... 👍

Although very nice food, great atmosphere and the staff are kind and very helpful!!!!

Super tasty, very rustic atmosphere, nice and attentive service. Absolutely recommended... but be careful: the portions are huge... it's better to choose if you're slightly hungry!

Völlig entäußert Metaxa Soße zu sehr mit Muskatnuss gewürzt (Personal hatte noch versucht es zu retten aber hat nicht geschmeckt) Die Leber war zu dünn und trocken gebraten Alles im allem sehr sehr enttäuschend der Abend

Do not book a table at weekends, which takes too long before the food is served.

Food was very good, portion size was appropriate for the price. All around a great restaurant

Best Greek restaurant ever. We recommend. Large portion, very tasty.

Nog steeds uitstekend, erg lekker grill gerecht met gyros, lever, bifteki en souflaki. Ook het gerecht met lamsvlees uit de oven beviel goed. Een rode wijn erbij gedronken van Lazardi, black sheep, deze paste prima bij het vlees. Uitermate vriendelijke en attente bediening. Gezellig ingericht restaurant.

Hyggeligt lille sted, venligt og smilende personale, maden smagte dejligt og var meget græsk, der er mere end nok mad til hver, selv hvis du bestiller, til den lille sult. Maden kommer hurtigt, der er styr på det hele undtagen bord bestillingen, forvselv om vi på e-mail havde bestilt bord til 1845-1900, så var vores bord til 8 givet væk, da vi var der et par minutter før. Dog blev vi delt i 2 mindre grupper af 4 og alt gik fint.

Cozy Greek. Food was delicious. Attentive staff. Quaint facility. Just go there. Definitely coming back.

Very friendly and uncomplicated, tasty and large portions. Gladly again!

Cozy place, super busy The food was ok but I wish my gyros had had more so it was crispy Got gyros with metaxa sauce

The restaurant is quite quaint and cozy, usually well attended. We were there for the 4th time in the course of 2 years. The service is usually quite good and friendly. On this visit - it was quite full - he was probably a bit overwhelmed. Can happen... The food, however, has a lot of room for improvement: my lamb was dry - even though it was in tomato sauce - and the potatoes were mushy. Same with my partner. I find the prices to be quite high compared to the quality. Dear people: it's not just tourists who don't come back...

Really good food and service and lots of it at a reasonable price.

There is a pleasant atmosphere in this restaurant. Top service, nice and funny people.👍

Ordered food at 6 p.m. and was told it would take about 1.5 hours... still not there after 2.5 hours. ..When I asked if the food was still coming, we said we had a lot to do...sorry, that's not possible😡

Delicious food, very nice staff

Always very satisfied. Super delicious food and very nice staff.

Simply great. We held our Christmas party there and everyone was more than happy and will come again.
