If you are in Oia then you must try this place. The food is very authentic and very good, the views are spectacular and the service is always with a smile. This is a family run enterprise so expect to be treated like one of the family. I highly recommend the stuffed tomatoes. These are made from an old family... More

We wound up the first narrow staircase to find a small bar with no one there. We walked up the next staircase to find the dining room with a beautiful view of the caldera. The food was just ok and the service was poor. Although there seemed to be two bartenders, two waiters (?), and one waitress and only about... More

If you are in Santorini, specifically Oia, you must east here at least once to see the sunset. make reservations ahead of time and you'll have a fantastic view of the sunset that the entire island comes to see. The food was pretty good, it is a bit pricey, but doesn't break the bank. The wait staff was fantastic and... More

New glass windscreens are new as well.. The view can't be beat....no reason to head to sunset if you've found this place. This year, also added Serbian bartender with colorful fashion tips for all....a la Jersey Shore!

An awesome view of the sunset, but it is a popular place for that and fills up fast. We had several dishes and appetizers and most were very good. They served a nice caipirinha which is a personal fave! The sunset was gorgeous that evening and the breezes balmy. Oh, did I mention the service. They were all over us... More

We stopped here to sample a Yellow donkey micro beer and ended up staying for the afternoon as there is the most breathtaking view of Oia from the rooftop terrace. You can see both sides of the island with amazing views of the Caldera and the Med.

We had lunch here while @ port on our cruise. We chose Pelekanos because we could see it sat high above Oia and offered a great view. The rooftop terrace was awesome for the view, but it got a little warm in the sun (good thing the beer was cold). Drinks and food were a bit expensive but its to... More

Had occasion to take the 12-night Crown Princess cruise that stopped in Santorini, Greece. Spent most of the day in beautiful Oia and enjoyed a very pleasant lunch at Pelekanos. The view of the sea and surrounding islands was spectacular from the terrace table. The food was perfect and the staff very pleasant and accomodating. Between Oia and Fira, the... More

Found it by mere chance - after a long walk alongside Oia's caldera we decided to have something to eat and drink and we ended up in Pelekanos. It was an afternoon so there were only the two of us (which was later spoiled by arrival of rather obnoxious newlyweds... long story). The view is really beautiful and we were... More

This is one of the best restaurants on Santorini and the most amazing views from the terrace on the top floor. Excellent food wine and service. Lovely informative waitress and a wonderful lunch.
