Alkyona Sunset — Restaurant in Municipality of Thira

A Slice of Heaven with a Taste of the Sea – Alkyona Sunset, Santorini

Dining at Alkyona Sunset was nothing short of magical. Tucked into one of Santorini’s most breathtaking corners, this restaurant offers not only front-row seats to the island’s legendary sunset but also an unforgettable culinary experience that lingers long after the last ray of sun dips below the horizon.

I ordered the mussels, and I can confidently say they were extraordinary. Served in a fragrant, perfectly balanced white wine and garlic broth, each mussel was tender, plump, and bursting with flavor — the kind of dish that makes you close your eyes after the first bite just to savor it fully. The broth was so good I found myself soaking up every last drop with the fresh, crusty bread they served alongside. It was rustic, elegant, and soul-satisfying — everything seafood should be.

The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do, adding a personal touch that elevated the entire experience. Watching the sun set over the caldera with a glass of crisp Assyrtiko and those heavenly mussels in front of me felt like time had paused just for a moment of pure joy.

Cold, dirty and food not delicious 😒

It's hard to find a restaurant in Oia in winter, so we were happy to find at least one with traditional food. But it was so cold and uncomfortable here that you don't wanna stay any longer than for the meal. Which was pretty disappointing, too. I had the worst souvlaki I ever had in Greece. Also very small portion with a total of five fries on the side. And belive me, I had many souvlakis in Greece ... And he had mousakka, which was cold in the center. And if that wasn't enough, the restaurant was also dirty.. Wouldn't have taken the ketchup. The bottle was really gross. And dirty silverware. And dirty tablecloth.

This place looks like they just don't care to make it a nice place couse tourists are coming any way, because there are simply almost no other places to get food. Nothing like the Greek hospitality and food I know...
