Varoulko Santorini

Almost missed the front door given it’s the off-season; they only have indoor seating after the sunset. Food was high quality and well-presented fine-dining fare. Staff was eager and attentive. 5/5 for the cocktails. One was irradiated green and the other was made of completely flavor foam.

Varoulko at Grace Hotel in Santorini is an exceptional restaurant with amazing views of the Aegean Sea, Skaros Rock, the caldera, and sunset situated in the center of Imerovigli. My husband and I had the Aegean Sea tasting menu for dinner there in late May 2025 while staying at Grace Hotel. The service, view, ambiance, and food were all amazing and a wonderful addition to our Santorini vacation.

Incredible service with artistic foods they introduced us nicely to the restaurant they even brought the lunch menu and even were able to do custom orders the whole experience was amazing we were sitting at a table with great view of the sunset and here are some pictures of the agaio/agean courses that we ordered i would recommend to anyone who enjoyes fine dinning 5/5

Absolutely brilliant- we booked drinks at the bar for 7pm followed by dinner at 8pm. My wife and I started off with cocktails in the bar area- a white Paloma and a Santorini - lovely; clear crisp flavours enjoyed with unrivalled views. We then indulged in a another round, this time the knowledgeable bartender led me to a different choice, the Pearl Fisher- a man of his craft, I was not let down! Think of the most delicate negroni in with cherry blossom to if you can imagine, all fresh local ingredients. The drinks and super chill house music went on and so did our experience, being welcomed to the restaurant for our 8pm mean. The service, impeccable, everything aspect was accounted for as you would expect in a Michelin started fine dining restaurant. The staff were always on point, choreographed and ready to match your formality or friendliness. My wife and I had decided to live the full experience- “The Lava menu” - the comprehensive 10 course taster menu bringing you through a sumptuous culinary experience as imagined by the chef. Valentino, Alex and George were phenomenal waiting staff, humorous and always ready to help. The food was exact, innovative and well thought out- especially the red shrimp with caviar and cucumber crab. We drank two very fine bottles of White Santorini wine throughout the meal and were spoiled as a pinnacle to the ending with the most amazing desserts and petite four. This was not cheap, but experiences that will last in your mind for a life time usually never are. If you are going to splash out on one experience in Santorini - let this be, I promise you it will stay with you for the rest of your life.- Alex Duffy

Should’ve wrote this comment a year ago.. We had our best time here during our entire trip! First of all - Fantastic view!(Personally think the sunset view here is better than Oia’s 😛）And absolutely amazing food and services!

What a FANTASTIC experience from start to finish. We attended with a group of 7 to celebrate our wedding anniversary and just had the most wonderful time. The food is to die for, the drinks were great. We haven’t had seafood quite like that before. The servers were all so kind and friendly. They were also flexible, having us sit outside for an hour to watch the sunset before going inside to hide from the wind (we were here in May, so it was a bit cold). When we sat outside, the staff brought us blankets and heaters. They were awesome. Can’t recommend enough for a special occasion meal!!!!

Excellent amazing experience. The food, staff, and location 5/5. If you do the tasting menu be sure to ask your server how long it will take. Our tasting took around 3 hours. My boyfriend mentioned to George D. and Nektarious that it was my birthday and they made sure a special dessert was made for me! Both were really attentive and knowledgeable to our meal and made the experience even more unique and unforgettable.

We had a fantastic lunch here! Very attentive staff provided history of the restaurant and made sure we were well taken care of. And the view is amazing! The crab on brioche appetizer was outstanding, as well as the grouper pasta and fennel risotto. Treat yourself, you won’t be disappointed!
