This is probably one of the fanciest restaurants on this small island for fine dining. All the dishes were beautifully presented & exquisitely executed. We were very happy with what we had, but of course there was also a price tag to match. The bar / restaurant also offered some very fancy experimental cocktails which we didn’t try. Some of them looked whimsical, like those served as bubbles & got blown away whilst a waiter raced to serve them to the clients. But all in all, this was a great experience if one was prepared to make a bit of a dent in the pocket.
From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was exceptional. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, ensuring every detail was perfect throughout our time there. Their warmth and attentiveness truly made the experience stand out. As for the atmosphere—it was nothing short of breathtaking. Set against the stunning backdrop of Santorini’s famous sunsets and beautiful views of the caldera, the ambiance was pure magic. The combination of the elegant décor, the soft lighting, and the serene surroundings made for a romantic and peaceful evening. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Santorini. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for an amazing dining experience, this restaurant will exceed your expectations in both hospitality and atmosphere.
I would say the highlight of this restaurant is the stunning views of Fira. It’s also nice and quiet tucked away from the main street so it feels more private. However, it’s quite expensive for what you get but the food is still quite good. The shrimp pasta was amazing but €61 is steep in my opinion. The staff were very helpful. One staff member was a bit direct/blunt but not sure if this is just the culture.
We enjoyed most incredible dinner while watching gorgeous Thira light up for the night. Every dish was divine, but we highly recommend the octopus, it was the best we had in all of Greece! See photos for some of the dishes we enjoyed. This experience was easily the best meal we had in Greece on our trip, and we highly recommend it for anyone visiting Santorini.
