About the Menu

The menu at L'Île de Crète offers a relaxed, approachable selection that echoes the casual charm of a neighborhood Greek café. Here, traditional Mediterranean flavors meet simple yet satisfying preparations, making it an ideal spot for both a midday meal or a leisurely dinner.

Guests can enjoy a variety of modest plates that invite sharing, such as a refreshing Assiette Grecque or a comforting Souvlaki Poulet served alongside crisp, fresh salad and warm pita. The assortment of mezzes and pâtisseries orientales provide light, flavorful options that work well as starters or late-night bites, accompanied by a glass of rich Bordeaux red wine or a chilled Greek beer.

The menu’s balance of lighter dishes and richer specialties creates a welcoming atmosphere suited for relaxed conversations and people-watching along the lively Rue Mouffetard. Whether settling in for a casual meal or grabbing a takeaway plate, diners often find the food easygoing yet thoughtfully prepared, fitting comfortably with the rhythms of everyday life in Paris.
