Pantheon

Frommer's Review

Anyone who spends more than a few days in Iraklion should take at least one meal in "Dirty Alley," where this restaurant is a longtime favorite. Although it lost its rough-hewn atmosphere long ago, Dirty Alley still seems an indigenous locale. The menu at Pantheon (much the same as the menus at the other Dirty Alley places) offers taverna standards -- meat stews; chunks of meat, chicken, or fish in tasty sauces; and vegetables such as okra, zucchini, or stuffed tomatoes. These places are not especially cheap -- the proprietors know to charge for the atmosphere -- but the food's tasty. And if you sit in the Pantheon, on the corner of the market street, you'll get a choice view of the scene outside.
