Authentic Greek cuisine

The Athenian House is situated in Santorini, high on the Cliffside overlooking the caldera and an amazing view of the famous Skaros Rock It provides an open top restaurant where one can see the spectacular sunsets whilst sampling some sublime and elegant gourmet cuisine on the veranda There is a romantic atmosphere with plenty of couples clinking glasses and chatting warmly in the Santorini clime

The Athenian House was awarded the World Luxury Restaurant Awards with 3 prizes “Global Winner for Best Greek Cuisine”, “Continent Winner for Most Romantic Atmosphere in Europe” and “Country Winner for Best Luxury Scenic Setting in Greece” It has also been voted “Traveller’s Choice” by Tripadvisor With accolades like this the restaurant has a reputation to live up to – and I am pleased to say it does so spectacularly

We were given a pleasant welcome and shown to our table (a well placed location to see the dramatic sunset whilst we dine) We were then provided with the inspired and sophisticated menu. We were kept warm by the blankets that they have funished The service is excellent The waiters and waitresses know the ingredients and how the food was made, including the wine paired for each course

After taking some time to first take in the view and the atmosphere, we decided to begin our gastronomical journey with the degustation (tasting) meal, a wonderful opportunity to sample traditional high class Greek cuisine with matching local wines With healthy ingredients gathered locally, expertly crafted onto the plates, we were treated to a remarkable experience.
