Set in a former Dominican monastery dating to the 15th century, Veneto serves creative Cretan cuisine beneath exposed beams or in an interior courtyard, with a 700-year-old stone wine cellar below. The kitchen carries the 'Cretan Cuisine' quality label and a wine list of 150-plus labels. History and gastronomy in equal measure.
