Avis RASTONI Thira

The most amazing viewpoint with an amazing service, do not miss !

Absolutely Loved this place. Many levels to walk up with views from every angle. We came as a group during the sunset and sat at the top. Came during Santorini’ annual volcanic celebration and the view simply perfection to say the least (beats fighting for a spot on the street which was overwhelmingly crowded). We ordered appetizer calamari, Greek salad, tzatziki (which easy to say one of the best tasting in Santorini) followed by Ordering the seafood sampler for two (more like for 4) was delicious with a little of everything 3 fish selections (tuna steak, & two whiting) lobster shrimp calamari all tasty grilled to perfection. The waiter was busy but still gave us sufficient attention. The dessert and champagne just added to this unforgettable experience.

This place was recommended by our tour guide in Santorini for its coming over a cliff, sights of Santorini. Well they truly delivered on the view and the food, service and house drinks. We enjoy the lamb, fish among our party of six at a cost relative or less for a night out with such fantastic food and views in our NYC home area. It's worth it!

Restaurant with clear Sunset Views and delicious food. Service was nice and quick.

Des plats excellents et une vue imprenable. La rue passante est un peu proche de la terrasse mais la vue sur Fira est incroyable.
Les prix sont élevés mais la cuisine le mérite.

Food was absolutely divine!! Ambiance was perfect for a chill evening dinner. Will definitely go back next time I’m in the area.????

Nice food with a view but that’s all!

The service was poor and extremely rushed. We went at sunset, ordered a drink each, starters and main. Mains were served as we were still eating our starters and our plates were taken away! It felt as though you were being rushed out because of the sunset. No one came back as asked how the food was or if we wanted anymore drinks so we were thirsty by the end of the meal. However once the sun had gone we struggled to get a waiters attentions for the bill. A very strange experience and wouldn’t recommend going if you want to relax and enjoy your meal.
Food was nice, but nothing to write home about.

Very friendly, great service. Thank you!

Magnifiquement placé avec vue sur la baie où les bateaux de croisière sont ancrés, ce restaurant offre une vue à 180 degrés en flanc de montagne. Étant attablé à l’heure du midi, nous avons choisi la salade de thon et la salade César. Malheureusement, on nous a servi une salade iceberg aux bouts rouillés mais heureusement avec des lanières de poulet délicieuses et croustillantes. En ce qui concerne la salade de thon, elle manquait d’assaisonnement et de vigrainette. Pour quatre personnes, 4 salades, 2 verres de vin et 2 bières en fût nous avons payé 120 euros.. un peu dispendieux mais la vue est à couper le souffle….
L’endroit est rénové, propre et le personnel poli et sympathique..

Fine dining atmosphere and pricing but without the fine dining service or food.

We started with the taramasalata, which was nice but TINY and served with a few pieces of almost-stale pita bread for 6 euro. This was the double portion for 2, so you can only imagine the single serving.

Wine bottles were significantly overpriced in comparison to other restaurants on the island, so we settled for a glass each, which was a very average assyrtiko.

For mains we had the fish and the shrimp risotto. The risotto itself was delicious - great flavour and consistency. However the 3 pieces of shrimp on top appeared to be frozen and imported and not fresh and local. It was also a relatively small portion, and for over 30 euro we expected more.

The sea bass fillet was nice, but paired with an average tabouli as a side. My wife cannot eat onion but they couldn’t accomodate this in the tabouli because everything was pre made. Considering you can get a WHOLE sea bass from other restaurants for less than the cost of this dish, we found this a bit disappointing.

The staff also appeared to be frustrated and at times inexperienced.

The view is really what you are paying for here, which undoubtedly is phenomenal. But unfortunately the food and service do not meet the same standard, and the lack of value sours the dining experience (many items on the menu are nearly double the cost of traditional restaurants down the road without the same view). Overall I would not recommend, unless the view is the most important thing to you. Unfortunately I think many of the restaurants in this part of Fira with the views are similar.

Great food, great location, great service.

We had our last meal in Thira here, and had fairly high hopes after seeing the menu. Unfortunately it seems to be style over substance, the meal was OK, but nothing spectacular. The bill was eye watering, and we left feeling quite disappointed. The service was also a little disappointing. Halfway through our meal a large group of females arrived and from that point the male waiting staff only seemed interested in serving them. Other restaurants we visited in Thira were better and cheaper.

Griechische Gastfreundschaft scheint hier unbekannt zu sein. Mit dem Gast wird nur das allernötigste gesprochen, wie zum Beispiel die unangebrachte Frage nach Trinkgeld. Warum die Teller halbvoll zurück gehen interessierte leider nicht. Das Essen ist völlig überteuert für die sehr mäßige Qualität. Von 3 Gerichten hat keines überzeugt.
Fazit: Eine typische Touristenfalle

Food was delicious and service was prompt. We did have a reservation. Beautiful view included with delicious food.

Awful service and food - very over priced for the quality !

Was looking forward to a T-bone steak as this resto came recommended. Unfortunately, they would not substitute potatoes for pasta/rice. I offered to pay more and they said I needed to order the original plate as is and a second plate of basic pasta for 18euros. As I could not possibly eat two plates I just took something else as I didn’t want to waste food. Not a big deal. However, when I got my fettuccine shrimp pasta for 31euros, it had 4 shrimp and was the size of a starter. I left hungry and I’m not a big eater :) To finish, before I entered my credit card in the machine the server asked for a tip.. I was going to leave him one (I run a resto/bar/hotel and know it’s hard work), however, the tip became a bit smaller at this point! Pretty bold and inflexible place.

Nice staff, nice Coffee????

No es lo que parece,al llegar la comida dejo muchisimo que desear para el precio que tiene pagaa por las vistas por que la calidad no es que sea muy buena,una estrella y por que no se puede poner menos,tenia que a ver ido al restaurante FRANCO que esta enfrente.

Amazing food you will be happy!!

Το μαγαζί είναι εκπληκτικό. Πήγαμε την ώρα του ηλιοβασιλέματος και καθήσαμε στον δεύτερο όροφο. Σας συμβουλεύω να έχετε κάνει κράτηση πρώτου πάτε γιατί δεν θα βρείτε για εκείνη την ώρα, μιας και έχει καταπληκτική θέα. Το φαγητό ήταν καταπληκτικό! Εάν πάτε πρέπει να πάρετε οπωσδήποτε την σφακιανή πίτα με σουσάμι και μέλι! Το προσωπικό ήταν πολύ εξυπηρετικό και γενικά όλη η εμπειρία μας ήταν πολύ ωραία.

Amazing view, great food and service. We had tzatziki for starters with pita. For mains, we had the seabass, moussaka, and smoked pork steak. I would recommend the pork steak.

Ultima cena prima di tornare a casa in questa bellissima location. La vista sulla caldera merita, prezzi in linea con quelli di altri ristoranti di Fira. Cibo abbassare buono, soprattutto il risotto e l’ombrina.

We made the incredible climb up to this wonderful restaurant. The view was magnificent. The food was delicious. We started with a glass of the house red, a nice cabernet sauvignon and the red queen cocktail. The wine was fine. The cocktail was spectacular. We chose the Sfakian pie with honey and sesame - quite tasty. For our main meal I had the beef tagliata recommended by the waiter. It was ok but nothing special. My niece had the Smoked pork steak. It was truly an incredible dish. The sunset view was stunning. Fair warning if you are on the first floor, many people come and stand outside to see the view as well. A nice restaurant with great service and a great view. Worth the climb.

Restaurant au coucher de soleil, magnifique !! Serveurs sympas, plats très bon et servis rapidement. Cependant, un peu cher (tu payes le cadre). A réservé pour être placé sur la terrasse en hauteur (meilleure vue pour le sunset)

Καταρχάς όταν κάναμε κρατηση από το τηλεφωνο μας είπαν για τραπέζι στον πρώτο όροφο πρώτη σειρά και όταν πήγαμε μας έβαλαν κάτω χωρίς ιδιαίτερα καλή θεα..Για το το φαγητο εχω να πω πως ήταν πολύ μετριο,οι ντοματοκεφτέδες άξιζαν αλλά βρε γελοίοι τι 25 ευρω για τα χειρότερα τύπου μακαρόνια που εχω φάει σε ένα άθλιο πιάτο.Δώσαμε 100 ευρω δυο άτομα για να φάμε φαγητο αξίας 30 ευρω.Αν θέλετε να κοροϊδέψετε τους τουρίστες πείτε μου από το τηλεφωνο ότι δεν έχετε τραπέζι για να μην κοροϊδευόμαστε και μεταξύ μας.Ένα έξτρα ακόμα για αυτό το μαγαζί είναι το αγενές προσωπικό που μάλλον είχαν βάλει μέλι στα αυτιά τους και στο στόμα τους Γιατι ούτε άκουγαν ούτε χαμογελούσαν.Καλες δουλειες δεν σας ευχομαι καλό κλείσιμο.????
