Delicious meal in a beautiful courtyard setting made for a wonderful date night on our recent vacation. We did the wine pairing, which was the perfect amount of wine and really enhanced the flavors.

Everything about the experience at Selene was thoughtful, intentional and elegant. The wait staff were helpful and attentive without hovering. Every dish provided an interesting collection of flavors and textures. The evening was leisurely and we didn't want it to end.

Selene offers a tasting menu created by Michelin star (in Athens) Chef, Ettore Botrini, with wine pairings and of course we chose the Greek wine choices which were excellent. The stars of the evening were the incredible servers who expertly provided not only warmth but...a professionalism to fine cuisine in a beautiful courtyard setting in Thira. Especially Panagiotis and Dimitros, who show the best of Greek hospitality.More

First of all the courtyard is so beautiful and with a relaxed atmosphere. Staff is very attentive and friendly. We took the a la carte menu (4 courses) and the sommelier advised us some very good wines from Santorini by the glass. Food was very...good and nice plates. It’s worth visiting this restaurant!More

I planned a trip to Greece for my birthday with 15 friends and family members. This was one of the restaurants I picked based on their tasting menu. Works cannot even begin to describe how amazing an experience we had. George the restaurant manager was...very accommodating putting us all at one table for our final celebration night. Christos was very informative and helpful when pairing our wines with the food selection. Dimitris and Marinos gave us their undivided attention and were so attentive to us throughout the experience. The biggest shot out goes to their chef Vasilis Spyros who put together such a beautiful tasting menu to capture the islands of Greece through food. I have been to many Michelin restaurants around the world and this was definitely one for the books!!! Thank you for making it a memorable night!!More

We had one of the best, if not “the best” ever, dining experiences at The Selene restaurant in Santorini, Greece. Everything exceeded our expectations—the food, drinks, service, atmosphere, etc. I was amazed at the use of nuts, seeds, herbs, and spices with most of the...dishes that provided a range of delightful flavors. The artistry of each and every food item was beyond compare. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone desiring a truly unforgettable dining experience.More

I opted, together with my girlfriend, for the a-la-carte menu (which is composed by a starter, a first course, a main course, and a dessert) as the tasting menu looked too extensive for a summer dinner. I had: Homage to Giorgos Hatzigiannakis as starter, From...Mani to Santorini with Love as first course, Sea Urchin, Lemon & 'Nduja Spaghetti as main course, and the Santorini Pistachio Pallete as dessert. Was it good? Yes. Was it memorable? No. The service was attentive, and the location is well presented, albeit a bit hidden from the street, with the tables disposed around an internal cloister. Overall a very good dinner in a nice place, just not sure if the € 600 bill (for two) is justified.More

We had an incredible experience at Selene - the service, food and ambience were off the charts. This is fine dining at it's finest. The meal and service was incredible. My daughter became chilled during dinner and one of the attendants was quick to bring...her a beautiful pashmina to keep her warm. Incredible. Every detail is thought out and nothing is too much here. The waitstaff is so professional and coordinated, a meal here is a beautifully orchestrated event. Even the music was perfection. It's sublime and not to be missed if you enjoy a fine dining experience. Truly a magical night in Santorini.More

Highly recommend! We did the Full moon tasting menu with and everything was great! A lot of love and care in presentation and flavours with an emphasis on local ingredients. Each course was wonderful, nothing negative to say at all. The service was attentive,friendly but...always discrete. They made us feel welcomed and we enjoyed every moment of our dinner. They were also great with my fiancées allergy to nuts. Outstanding wine list and knowledgeable sommelier team!
