What to expect
The menu is built for sharing: flatbreads, dips and small plates with spices from the eastern Mediterranean and North Africa. Vegetarians do well, and the vegetarian moussaka is a favourite.
Getting there
Splantzia is the quieter eastern part of the old town, around the square with the church of Agios Nikolaos and its minaret. Walk from the harbour in about 10 minutes. Opening days and seasons change. Check with the restaurant before you go, especially outside July and August.
Explore Splantzia
Before or after dinner, wander Splantzia's square and lanes; it has a more local feel than the harbour front.
