Spilia Mykonos Seaside Restaurant

What a beautiful and unique place to open a restaurant, inside a natural cave overlooking one of the best beaches in Mykonos. September 2025, we decided to have lunch there, without previous reservation at 2 pm. The waiter received us friendly and to our surprise placed us on the best table we could imagine. First impression sublime! We ordered one bottle of still water, a bottle of Ruinart Champagne “Blanc de blanc” 2017. Foodwise we ordered the Tuna tartar which honestly was the best I’ve ever had, the Ceviche, Pasta Spaghetti alle vongole and the King Crab Linguine. Everything delicious, the pasta perfectly al dente, the seafood fresh and sooo tasty, overall just the perfect experience! Keep in mind you come to have a good time, enjoy the seafood and the place thats setting really is unique. Next year we will be back for more.

This a very beautiful spot with AMAZING views! But that’s about it! Seafood was overcooked. Service was TERRIBLE! We asked for menu so many times and they would forget or take it away without taking our order! Tables are tilted and drinks slide down! Very uncomfortable chairs with not enough space between them. The music was very commercial which many people enjoy, but the DJ was unable to mix! He was simply playing tracks. Drinks were around 20 euros each.

We visited Spilia in Mykonos recently, expecting a relaxed Sunday dinner by the sea. The setting is stunning, but unfortunately the experience wasn’t what we had hoped for. When we arrived, we weren’t given much direction, so we headed downstairs where the music was extremely loud and it felt more like a club than a restaurant. While there were some people eating, most guests seemed to be up dancing, which left us confused. Thinking we must have gone the wrong way, we went back upstairs to ask, but were told our table was indeed downstairs. Once back down, the host didn’t seem particularly welcoming and told us we’d need to wait a bit longer. We were left standing awkwardly in the middle of the party, and while we were encouraged to go to the bar, the atmosphere was not at all what we expected for a dinner reservation. The music was so loud we couldn’t even hold a conversation, and it felt very uncomfortable. We enjoy a lively night out when we’re prepared for it, but this just wasn’t the vibe we were looking for. We came expecting a restaurant experience, not a nightclub. If you’re after a full-on party atmosphere this may be perfect, but if you’re seeking a calm, scenic meal, this probably isn’t the right place.

Be careful that this restaurant has several floors. Each floor has like a different vibe. The botoom floor has a party style with DJ dancing etc. There are other calmer floors and super calm floors for like family lunch. So make sure you are accurate with your reservation on which table or location you will get since you might not be happy at all if you prefer the party vibes or chill vibes instead!! We booked a table but it was in a calm area whereas we wanted to be in the party area and we didnt know.. Food is amazing but expensive! Next time we need to be more accurate on reservation. Nice views too!

Spilia is pure magic - tucked right into the rocks by the sea, it’s the kind of place that steals your breath before the food even arrives. And then the food comes…oh my. The sea urchins are a salty-sweet kiss from the Aegean, the octopus literally melts in your mouth, and the sea bass carpaccio is so delicate it practically dances on your tongue. Both the king crab salad and king crab tartare are fresh, rich, and beautifully balanced, and their famous chocolate cake? Pure indulgence with a view. So, between the crystal-blue waters lapping at your feet and the flavours as vivid as the scenery, Spilia is truly an unforgettable Mykonos experience. Would definitely recommend it, especially for special occasions.

Great place and amazing vibes, the DJ was great. Reservations are required and the table for lunch will be hold for only 15 minutes. I would recommend Friday and Saturday lunch.

We had a wonderful experience at Spilia. The food was delicious and beautifully presented — every dish was thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. The service was attentive and professional, which made the experience even more enjoyable. However, the music was extremely loud and quite challenging for sensitive ears. After a while, my friend and I felt uncomfortable and decided to leave earlier than we had planned. Overall, the restaurant offers excellent food and service, but be prepared for the high volume if you’re sensitive to loud environments

As much as the place and vibes are nice, beware of them, we were three people ended paying 714 euros and forgot on that day to inform them to deduct the 250 euros we paid in deposit, the next day i informed them and their reply we need transaction proof like wth!! We were there at your restaurant and your accounting system can retrieve my booking! Till now they are playing games with me and don’t want to return back the deposit payment, if this is a professional and high end restaurant they would automatically deduct the payment from the final bill but i am sure their policy is why to remind people of this as they forgot they paid an initial deposit payment! What a scam and rip off, its not about the money but more of moral and integrity you should have.
