Top 10 European food in Oia, South Aegean, Greece
Reviews on European food in Oia, South Aegean, Greece. Oia is carved out of the cliffs, and visitors can see houses built for Venetian sea captains as well as the more typical "cave houses" of the villagers. You’ll find the pure white buildings with colorful roofs that are typical of Greek architecture, and you’ll probably enjoy poking around the town. But don’t breeze through in an hour—you must stay for the sunset. It’s legendary. Watch from a café, or, better yet, from a boat—you’ll be spellbound.

This is a very small restaurant, I would estimate around 30 person capacity. The first thing we noticed was how attentive the servers were. They checked up on us throughout our meal, refilling drinks and cleaning off our table between courses, and always checking to make sure we enjoyed everything. The menu was a modern take on traditional Greek cuisine. We really enjoyed the mussels appetizer, which was served in a tomato and feta based sauce similar to a mussels saganaki. The difference here was the flair of the dish being served on a flaming dish with a mint jelly on a spoon to pour over the mussels. Absolutely delicious. We also had their bread which tasted fresh and was served with a creamy feta and red pepper dipping sauce which was a great complement to the mussels.We had a spaghetti with prawns and rack of lamb for our main courses. Both of the dishes were plated stylishly and were rich and full of flavor. We had a chocolate souffle for dessert that turned heads at other tables when it was served with a red wine goblet steaming with dry ice that seemed designed to Instagram.We were so pleased with our dinner and the service that we made reservations for the next night as well. Our servers even introduced us to the chef!

This restaurantâs terrace dining has an unobstructed view of the famous Oia sunset. The food is delicious and prices moderate in comparison to prices charged at other sunset view restaurants in Oia. It is located just outside of the main tourist area but easy to get to by bus or taxi. If by bus, you need to make sure you get on one that stops there ( some go direct to bus station) and tell the driver in advance to stop. The food is worth going out of your way a little and seeing the sunset while relaxing and dining away from the crowds is an unforgettable experience.We stayed at a place across the street for 3 nights and had food there all three nights ( not because of convenience but because it was THAT good) One night we dined in, the other two we did take out back to our hotel. They gave us free bread in the last night! Recommend highly the grilled calamari and mussels with ouzo sauce but all choices are good.

After reading the reviews I was very excited about this restaurant, but the food was pretty disappointing. I suggest ordering the melted cheese appetizer. That was delicious! But everything else fell flat and I barely ate the goat confit that was recommended by our server. All that said, it gets 4/5 for the absolutely picture perfect views during sunset. Make your reservation in advance for a sunset table on the balcony/rooftop and you will not be disappointed. Just don't go in expecting the best meal of your trip.

We visited this restaurant during our stay at Oia. The food was a delight not just to look at but also to eat. The walk to the restaurant is about 100 steps each way but itâs completely worth it once you dine there. Itâs on the expensive side but we were celebrating a special occasion and so we didnât mind the price for that reason. The staff was very professional and friendly at the same time.Dear Goozneha,Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for taking the time to share it with TripAdvisor Community.We are excited to read that you had a nice experience and you enjoyed the breathtaking Caldera's Views, our food as well as our Team Efforts to makes your visit memorable.Kindly note that we will share your words with the entire Black Rock Team.

My wife who has allergies has eaten at many Michelin star restaurants. In every case, we make sure to provide the allergies ahead of time so there is ample time to accommodate. We provided at least 3 days of advanced notice, yet we're told we couldn't be accommodated.I think the chef was simply too lazy to prepare something special.

We celebrated our 3rd Marriage Anniversary with a dinner at Lycabettus and our experience was outstanding. Firstly, the view is what we went for. Sitting there, enjoying our lovely dinner and taking in the breathtaking view. It was so good you can't describe it in words. Secondly, we were blown away by the gastronomic experience, thanks to the staff for explaining everything in detail and to the chef for preparing and presenting the most wonderful dishes & dessert. I ordered short rib, other half ordered chicken breast and this unique dessert (that I can't remember) and we loved all of it. The way it was made and explained made it a very enlightening experience and that is something you can hardly ever say about a meal. Every dish, came with a pre-dish which was also very surprising and the cherry on top were the gourmet candies that they sent us for our celebration. It was very thoughtful and we thank you for that!Overall, the experience is something you got to be there to understand and its a must visit especially if you want to celebrate a special occasion. My other half and I loved it and we will surely visit if we revisit Santorini again. Keep up the good work guys!Dear Guest,It is an honor for us to read through your review at Tripadvisor, how muchyou enjoyed your anniversary dinner at Lycabettus Restaurant.Thank you for taking the time to write your experience and your opinion about our service and our menu.We all wish to welcome you soon back in majestic Santorini and Lycabettus Restaurant, the most beautiful balcony of the world.Kind Regards,Nadia Georgantopoulou

Overall, this place has its charms but service is uneven (not rude, just forgot orders and slow).The chickpea stew is phenomenal and really memorable. I've never had more flavor in a vegetarian dish.The moussaka was completely forgettable on the other hand. It was served slightly lukewarm too. I wouldn't recommend it.The stewed vegetables wasn't very tasty either despite the menu description playing it up. I wouldn't recommend it.The "spaghetti" was good and an island specialty -- if you don't get it with meatballs or chili/parmessan then you're getting it the authentic way. It is a garlicly (light) noodle with some tomatoes. It was simplicity at its best.If you don't like cats, you shouldn't sit here cause they have a lot here they like to keep around.Wine by the glass is huge and a great value here.

We received several recommendations for this restaurant. We stayed in Oia for the sunset then went to dinner. There is not a view from the restaurant, but don't let that stop you! Just work around it...watch the sunset then eat...The service was great, the food and wine excellent the ambiance is fantastic. Would definitely recommend it.It's true Kathy S, from our restaurant you may not be a able to enjoy the sunset, as we wanted to attract our diners mainly for our service and not for the natural beauty of the place. We also want all your senses to be focus at our meals and coctails and not at the sun. We hope you enjoyed it. Best,
