Wow day and night with anything with had so far. We read the reviews and we had high expectations for this place. I thought we would have a quiet and joyful evening, but the noises with the staff and what looked like the owner ruined our evening, the owner was totally unprofessional. The food was perfect but the atmosphere ruined.

The food and views were excellent (5 star) but the overall vibe could be improved to make it an excellent experience. Music a bit jarring, only one of you has a view and plastic chairs for one. Sitting very close to other tables so it was difficult to talk without overhearing. Almost too quick in bringing out the food so you felt a bit rushed and could have given more description around the food. Felt like it lacked a bit of character. Would recommend trying to get a table 7 or later as getting there at 6 it is very hot still and there is no cover from the sun

located in Imerovigli with a simply stunning view over the caldera and Skaros in front. The owners chose their interieur, setup and even platedesign with great love to the detail creating a cozy stylish atmosphere. The different courses of the set menue (you can still choose amongst 2-3 variations) are creative, harmonious and at the same time special and I really enjoyed each single of them. The chef Konstantin takes the time to speak to and care for each single of his guests, and surprised us even with an additional gratis course (a variation of the famous fava). My flight of wines (4 different ones) was superb and complementing the fantastic menue. My dinner at the Athenian House was a truly unique experience I can only highly recommend-if you have not been for sunset dinner (the best spot on Santorini) at the Athenian, you have not been to Santorini!

Had a very pleasant dinner with a fantastic sunset. Went for the big menu and were recommended wines by the glass matching the dishes. Highlights of the menu were the Baby Calamari and the Santorini Bouquet (excellent salad). Very friendly service. Why not 5* - little pricey for the overall experience.

We have been to quite a few Michelin rated restaurants. The food in this restaurant is certainly comparable. Excellent. Not cheap but worth it. On top you have a great setting.
