Best dinner in Santorini for the 4 nights we were here. So much fun having dinner with the locals. Food was outstanding. Be sure to say hello to Vasilis. Let him “surprise” you with his choices for appies. What a great find.

After one month in Greece, I had my best dinner at Taverna Romantico. Do yourself a favor, eat here once while in Santorini. I bet you’ll eat here again.
Really friendly restaurant, waiter was really helpful and had a lovely funny sense of humour and made you feel welcome. He recommended fish from the menu the sea bass was excellent and good sized meals. The baklava was very good. The waiter kept offering free...local spirits and not my wife and I were feeling tipsy as we left having also drank a litre of house red which was also good. Highly recommend and it appears the locals eat here which is always a good sign for a top restaurant. Superb see you again Monday evening before we fly homeMore
Vasilis was by far the best server we may have ever had. He recommended things we would have otherwise never tried and made us (or at least me) laugh until we cried. Atmosphere was quaint, cozy, friendly, and romantic.
We were walking back from Imerovigli to Fira after a walk along the caldera road and decided to stop here for lunch and we thought it was closed as we didn't see any other diners in the restaurant. We called into the restaurant and the...staff said it was open so we chose a table and the lady came down to take our order. We chose the variety for 2 people which consists of zucchini fritters, fava beans, tzatziki and tomatoes and dolmades. She also brought some cheese bread and olives and we ordered bread and olive paste. She also brought us some complimentary ouzo for us to try while we waited for our meal. It was a nice place for a quick lunch and it's just on the crossroads of Fira and firastephaniMore
We returned a second time to taverna Romantica because our first experience was so good!! Also our second meal was delicious! We followed the advice of the hilarious waiter Vasilis and took the feta with honey and a Black snapper and a sea bream ....Everything was perfect ! If you want a good tasting typical Greek meal for a fair price don’t hesitate… this is the place to be!More
My husband and I ate here for 3 consecutive nights! That must speak for itself! This family run Taverna, leaves those expensive restaurants with a view standing. From the moment you sit down to the moment you leave, the lovely staff, the food, obviously and...the atmosphere make this a very special place. Oh and deservedly so it’s very busyMore
My wife and I needed a jolt of local dining being surrounded with tourist trap establishments so we made our way to Taverna Romântica. From the moment you walk in, you’ll quickly notice the large number of locals enjoying their meal which is a great...sign on its own. The meals and service were top notch, the venue is clean and simple. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant while staying in Santorini! Five stars!More
We went for lunch and dinner during our Santorini stay, both were terrific! Super lovely staff and plenty of local dishes at really reasonable price. Would absolutely recommend to anyone staying or passing by Firostefani
Some of the best authentic Greek food we had in Santorini. The staff was lovely and the food was absolutely top notch. Much better food than the “cliffside” places where you are mostly paying for the view. This place also had a wonderful view of...the other side of the island!More
We saw this restaurant packed with people around 8-9pm. We were walking by the side of the road after eating in an overrated restaurant with a sunset view in Fira. We paid a lot on the first restaurant but we left dissapointed. So we decided...that we will have our meal next day in Taverna Romantica. We arrived quite early the next day around 5:30 pm. No customers yet but there was a man sat in one of the tables. He said they were open so we chose a nice spot. I think he got quite annoyed when we were calling him because we were ready to order not knowing that he was preparing a complimentary starter for us so we felt a bit embarassed😆 . Anyway, it was an amazing dinner because of how good the food was. Superb taste with very big portion and an amazing service by the owner himself. He was telling us stories about how long he was running the restaurant and he was very accomodating. Provided us with free local wine and even gave us a plate of fruits for dessert, all complimentary! He even gave me a big white eggplant which he said is harvested exclusively in Santorini. He was also teaching us few greek phrases. We were really glad to have accidentally found his resto. We wanted to come back the next day but we run out of time. We will surely come back again when we travel to Santorini again.More
This was the only restaurant we visited that didn’t have the ocean view, because of the reviews and it didn’t disappoint!! The waiter is hilarious and we are still talking about our experience here. Totally got us drunk on Oozo! Delicious meal and sensibly priced....Worth a trip.More
Absolutely incredible meal and hospitality, would highly recommend!! Vasilis made us feel so at home and the food was delicious ❤️
We went here for lunch. Restaurant have a good breeze and good ambience. Nice view. Staff Vasilis ( hope I got his name right) very nice person, approachable and served us really well.Excellent service! He suggested the grilled mixed fish and he wasn’t wrong at...all ! It was the best meal we had so far in the island! Please do try. Taverna Romantica is Highly recommended!More
Wow! The reviews were RIGHT! Delicious nibbles and a bit of raki on the house. Per suggestion, fish for two customized to our likes- AMAZING😋 House rose from Santo winery was the perfect accompaniment. I’ll remember you forever!!
