Oia Gefsis - Oia Gefsis

This little spot was one of an handful of places open while visiting Oia. We were a week too early for the normal tourist season. Our service was top notch. We dined outside and it got very cold close to sunset. They provide you with a blanket and they lit one of the outside heaters. We tried 3 dishes, porcini pappardelle, sea bass with beets and greens, and moussaka with perfectly roasted and crisp potatoes. This moussaka was the best I have had on my entire trip. The sea bass was tender perfection and the beets were a sweet and mellow spiced sensation. The porcini pappardelle had hazelnuts added for a little pop of crunch and nuttiness. Reservations are very necessary when dining here.

Not the cheapest meal, but one of the best I had in Greece! They have a vegan mushroom risotto that’s heaven. Andreas was an awesome waiter. Good view of the sunset too.

Nice diner on the roof of the restaurant to see the sun going down. The menu was big enough and the quality of the food was good. Quick service and friendly staff

Honestly, the food was amazing. The staff was funny & attentive . We of course were here during the off season so dining with more of the locals. Great ambience, music and also outdoor seating. There really wasn't anything we didn't like on the menu. Definitely try out this local staple.

Lovely experience, surroundings and decor. The food was delicious with great choice on the menu. The staff were knowledgeable and attentive. Great place to linger. Highly recommend.

Here’s the thing about Oia… there are places you go that will refuse you service or a table with a good view or be genuinely rude to you if you don’t look like you have money. This is one of the only places on the island (with a rooftop terrace that has sunset views) where this would NEVER happen. We even had a conversation with the waiter about it and his philosophy was basically if you look for the money you loose the customer service, the vibe, and everything that makes your restaurant special. His name was Phillip and he also gives FANTASTIC menu recommendations. All the items on the menu we had were amazing. Highlights were the orange prince cocktails and the Santorini white wines by the glass. Also the salads are unique and fresh (pick something other than the Greek salad!! Try something new) the lamb was melt in your mouth amazing, the fresh fish was served with steamed veggies and these twice cooked crispy potatoes that are somewhere between a French fry and a chunk of mashed potato and 100% delicious. The red mullet tartare and the meatballs were also unique and delicious. Even the chicken souvlaki was really flavorful and the chicken was super tender. Prices are very fair for Santorini. Book a reservation ahead if you want to see the sunset from the roof. Like a few weeks ahead. The atmosphere is lovely even if you don’t sit up top, and they even have heaters and a bar upstairs for sunset cocktails.

Lovely, amazing food! The staff was absolutely accommodating and knowledgeable about the menu! We went at sunset, and it was amazing views. The Santorini salad as a sharer was a joy of delicious flavours. My partner had a sea bream that was filleted at the table which was so good. I had the duck which was equally fantastic. We had the dessert wine and this was the perfect end to our meal. Will definitely come back for the views and food!

Gorgeous view- but horrible service and the seafood pasta had NO SEAFOOD. The clams were smaller than my thumbnail, and I had two- 2!- muscles. The wine didn’t come for a long time. The actual pasta and lemon garlic sauce is good, but if the chef or staff had this dish and paid 28€ for it, they would be appalled. Get a salad and an appetizer and enjoy the view. Go get a real meal elsewhere.
