To Souvlaki tou Papou — Restaurant in Municipality of Thira

We decided to try this place out after reading the good reviews.

And now here is another good review. This is both one of the most unassuming, and also one of the most delicious places we've eaten on our holiday.

My wife is a vegetarian, there's not a lot of vegetarian dishes, but what they have is authentic and delicious. Of course all the meat was amazing, smokey, moist, and tender.

On top of that, the staff were just legends, so inviting and helpful. Really glad we tried it out.

Edit: in the week or so since I posted this, we've gone to some of 'The Souvlaki/Gyros' places according to different must do in Santorini lists. I believe To Souvlaki is better. The people are better, the food is better, and the prices are much better. Don't drive halfway across the island,...

Absolute disappointment, I don’t recommend this place. The menu offered a souvlaki for €3 with bread, but they brought a pathetic 10 cm sausage without any additional products (usually in Athens we received a huge kebab with a side dish of potatoes/bread). The gyros is half filled with fries and very little sauce. In addition, the place has 2 small cages with birds that are in a confined space, I consider this a cruelty to animals. I recommend buying food from the Sklavenitis supermarket and preparing meals yourself if you really want a cheap meal (a portion of Greek salad from the ingredients cost us 2 euros instead of 12 in this “wonderful”...

Might look a bit sketchy, especially in the later hours, but the food was well worth it. The meat was very tender and juicy and the portions were huge. Also kind and attentive staff. If the appearence would be a little more polished and cleaner, they would have a lot more costumers though. However, the food was extraordinarily tasty. Seems to be more frequently visited by locals than anyone...
