The bay view comes with a small dining room
Lotus Eaters has occupied an upper terrace over Elounda bay since 1984, fitting only a limited number of tables behind the rail. Sole, grilled squid and Moroccan-spiced lamb sit beside Greek dips and hot pita, giving resort diners a tighter alternative to broad seafront menus.
Book well ahead and request the rail; July diners report reserving two weeks out. Lunch runs from noon to roughly 14:45 before an evening reset, Tuesday stays closed and portions can feel restrained, so plan two courses rather than building dinner from starters alone.
What visitors say
Lotus Eaters holds 4.8 from about 2,283 Tripadvisor reviews and 4.9 from roughly 777 Google ratings; fish, owner-led service and bay tables dominate praise, while limited seats and occasional delays demand planning.
