About
Welcome to the White Lounge Restaurant! A restaurant that is built in a characteristic part of the appealing Imerovigli village, in the historic, dramatic Caldera Cliffs, which is a major site of the whole island for centuries and was hence the inspiration for the name of the restaurant! You cannot imagine the alluring scenery of the most breathtaking sunset you have ever seen, with its special and different shades of colors reflecting perfectly to the Aegean blue sea. From the restaurant’s balcony, you will also seize the chance to admire the impressive and famous Volcano of Santorini, no matter how many times you see it, you will never get enough of this image!
With our three-leveled restaurant, our goal is to break with the often-rigid atmosphere of the fine dining category and to deliver a high-toned, quality, and unbeatable experience in a cozy and friendly environment. Mediterranean and Greek cuisine is the primary inspiration for our menu, classic yet essentially reinterpreted dishes are served on our plates. Outstanding quality is of very high importance to us; therefore, we purchase all our raw materials from domestic producers, and we procure our organic wine selection from small Santorinian wineries exclusively. We will try our best to give you a memorable evening, providing you with extraordinary cooking and service facilities. We are looking forward to seeing you!

Amazing view. Reasonable service but 1 lamb was pure grizzle and fat 2. Chicken risotto was pasty 3. Red snapper special was over cooked On the positive side the appetizers were very good. Overall, over priced for the quality but amazing view
We came here a few times during our stay for pre-dinner cocktails. The staff are great and the service is so friendly. We sat at the bar with a great view whilst sipping cocktails. Highly recommend!
Very friendly service, nice relaxed pace and we did not feel rushed at all. We had the three dips with pita, and then the pita came out with two little ones as well. The fish was fresh and delicious. Baked feta was also good. Very clean facilities. We walked up from Thera (Fira) along the trail (about 1.35 mile / 2km) and it was a beautiful taste of the trail, then took a car (via Uber) up to Oia.
I didn't take many photos so only have the one shown which is the fillet steak and the view. Overall the food was decent enough and the price is slightly high but to be honest I expected it to be higher due to the view, the issue is the portions are very small. I had garlic bread to start (not really what I was expecting it was a small dry bit of garlic bread with what I assume was the tomato sauce advertised on top that was dried up) for 8.50 euros. Fillet steak was 34 euros which isn't that bad and the steak was alright but such a small portion of chips and no garnish or anything. Other dishes around the table all lacked portion size as well. Amazing view from the restaurant and will be the experience and why its worth going but honestly could be a much better experience with a few tweaks with portion sizes and sides. Service was okay, wasn't bad but nothing good to mention! I think charging for tomato sauce in sachets for a restaurant that is at that price is not great either. Overall average experience with a great view! I wouldn't look to go back for food but maybe a drink with the view!
