As previous posters have said, this place has both great food and an incredible setting - views over the water, beautiful flowers hanging throughout the ceiling, soft lighting - very romantic. The staff and very friendly - the hostess even did her best to save us a particular table with the best view. The mussels saganaki appetizer was probably the... more

My husband and I had dinner at Vanilia twice during our holiday in Santorini. We went for my birthday and enjoyed it so much that we went back on our last night. The octopus starter is amazing. We also had the fresh fish of the day which was perfect. The service is first class and attentive. It's a little expensive... more

Fantastic food in a indoor/ outdoor style with candles and flowers, very romantic. A perfect follow up after watching the sunset in Imerviogili, located in Firastefani. more

We went as a suggestion from friends that honeymooned in Santorini. The fish soup was superb but the lamb with yogurt was just so-so (kind of bland). But nothing can beat the look of the restaurant.

I had a braised lamb dish and my husband enjoyed a baked fish with brut bevies, both dishes were well done. The few complaints we had were that many... more

Myself and my new Wife enjoyed two excellent meals at this restaurant. I particularly enjoyed the Octopus starter. We had the first meal on the roof terrace and watched the sun set. The next meal meal later in the week was a little later in the evening and a little breezy, so we ate downstairs. A different atmosphere - but... more

Great place, located in an old windmill and with views of the caldera, Vanilia is a wonderful place for dinner or lunch. Not touristy and delicious! more
