Character is a gorgeous restaurant. They have incredible cocktails and a decent wine menu! Our server was very attentive and offered great suggestions. For dinner, we tried a salad with toasted cheese, the Fava bean and grilled octopus, a grilled goat cheese appetizer, then we had the bread basket, and 2 pasta entrees. The location is perfect for sunset dinner. It was way too much food for 2 people! Portions a large enough for sharing

Oddly, the best Caesar salad I’ve ever had. Romantic views, great service. Truffle beef rigatoni in cream sauce was a brand new taste for me 😍 thank you to other reviewers for helping me choose this place

The best experience in Santorini! I highly suggest this restaurant for their amazing view, best customer service, and the best of you while you’re enjoying your meal and cocktails! A great atmosphere with great music playing quietly in the background as you look over Santorini. I highly suggest the lamb chops. And the owner is a great person, came by and gave us the best service ever!

Amazing food, lovely service, divine sunset view. We showed up super last minute after hiking over from Oia and they were super accommodating and able to give us a front row seat for the sunset. The salads were great, the lamb fell off the bone, and the blueberry Moscow mule was exactly what we needed after the long hike.
