So happy to get a late lunch at 2:30 opening today without a reservation. We were told best food on the island and I agree. Might have been the best lamb shank I have ever eaten. Fabulous service. The complimentary bread/olives/cheese and cheesecake were a lovely surprise. The patio and view were lovely. Only disclaimer is the walk down the hill road is steep for anyone that might have hip or leg issues.
The best meal we had in Santorini. So good that we went back two days later! The asparagus dip is a must, same with the cheese rolls. The mains are massive and incredible. They provide complimentary shots at the start with a small plate of cheese and olives, as well as complimentary cheesecake at the end which was beyond delicious. I'm still dreaming of it 🤤
Came here with my family and had an amazing time. The view was beautiful and the food… the food was amazing. We ordered 3 starters and 3 main dishes and split it all of family style. The food was delicious and I can’t wait to eat here again before our trip is over. Grape leaves with the yogurt. The cheese with asparagus, and the pork with feta sauce were my favs.
The food is good but we didn't find it amazing. We had dinner here on two evenings as it was right next to our B&B. The service on the first evening was very good but the second day was average. The view from the terrace was breathtaking and worth visiting. The dessert which was a home made cheese cake was the best part of the meal.
