Eat & Drink
Zamāna’s culinary philosophy is simple: ingredients speak, and we listen. Our creative Mediterranean cuisine is inspired by the rich traditions of Cretan gastronomy, uniting land, sea, and season in every dish.
Rooted in Crete, Inspired by the Med
Expect locally-sourced produce, aromatic herbs, and fresh seafood, boldly elevated with thoughtful technique, simplicity and artistic showmanship. Every plate is designed to complement the rhythms of the day. So share meze for lunch with friends or indulging in a slow, solitary sunset meal, promised to be as nourishing as it is memorable. At Zamāna, food is a way to connect, to pause, and to feel fully alive in the moment.
Simple Pleasures
From light bites by the shore to sparkling champagne and crafted cocktails, indulgence is always within reach. Whatever you’re craving, we’ll serve it with flair.
Cocktails

Our Chef
Chef Alkis Theocharidis—young, seasoned, and soulfully inspired, brings a fresh take on Cretan cuisine, rooted in the island’s earth and water. Try sun-soaked lunches in the restaurant, barefoot brunches by the beach and slow sips in the lounge. Every bite tells a story of tradition reimagined. Freshly-caught seafood, tender Iberico pork, handmade Black Angus burgers, and tuna Katsu-Sando are kissed by the Aegean breeze. Zamana is where taste meets saltwater rituals.
