We stopped at this restaurant, by chance, for a couple of drinks after climbing the path from the harbour (off a cruise ship) and wandering around Fira for a while. Prices at other places had made us move on. We were greeted by the wonderfully friendly owner and told to ignore the menu prices we had been looking at. He... More

The food was great! The hospitality was better! Try a variety of entrees, it's worth it. Make sure you're really hungry.

Been here for lunch on both our visits to Santorini - and will continue to do so if we get to Santorini again. Marvelous views from this charming restaurant away from the busy part of town. Very generous host, superb food.

Recently visited and enjoyed in particular a lovely dish of Greek yogurt and honey, heavenly. We found this delightful restaurant whilst trying to escape the madding crowds when visiting the Island during a cruise. Well worth the climb, for the food, service and view.

We stumbled upon this restaurant on a very hot day whilst walking up to the top of the island. It is a perfect spot to enjoy the view and the owner brought out a pair of binoculars for the kids to check out the volcano. He was friendly, kind and helpful. When we placed our order, he thought that we... More
