I was walking past this restaurant just before sunset. There was a sign outside saying come in and enjoy our great sunset views and it looked like a nice restaurant so I decided why not. When I went in and asked for a table I was offered one in the middle of the restaurant with no view. That defeated the... More

What a wonderful dining experience we enjoyed on all 3 of our visits (October 2011) Friendly and helpful staff, delicious food and as a bonus, spectacular caldera views. We don't usually dine at a place more than once but we became quite attached to Mama Thira's. We highly recommend it as a nice alternative to Fira, located right on the... More

Decided to eat here as it was very close to our hotel.It was always very busy.Very nice outdoor area with great caldera view,inside felt like an old greek grocery store with local delicasies.Some of the starters were great,the main course sea food could have been better.The service was busy.Stick to the local dishes.Price range was ok.

I ate my first meal in Greece here -it was also on my first day in Santorini...It was recommended by my hotel. Although its not on the Top 5 Restaurant List, I decided to visit it as it was only 5 mins walk from my hotel. The Grilled prawns (they call it shrimps) and Santorini Salad was a great introduction... More

We ate dinner and lunch here during our recent stay on the island. The first time was dinner. The food was good but the waiter was totally snitty.

Enjoyed a lovely meal - no reservation but made very welcome. Attentive staff really good food and enjoyable wine. Good spot for Caldera view. Very well run Taverna. More

We came across this restaurant along our first day walk between Imergovlia and Fira (located in Firastefani). Pretty blue and white decor from the outside (the one with the octupus and peppers hanging on a string in the front window) and great view towards the caldera on the upper floor from the inside. What a way to enjoy our first... More

Our waiter was very helpful in helping us to select local foods and wine. If you make a reservation you get a table upstairs with window views towards the volcano. Nice atmosphere and attentive staff. Very nice touch was the complimentary ouzo to finish the evening. More

This is the second time I've dined at Mama Thira. Service and food just as good both times. Their Greek salad is terrific as is the lamb. The staff is really fun as well. They are also in a great location. I'd love to try their rooftop next time. Be sure to walk up the stairs and around to the... More
