Vanilia

About

Vanilia Restaurant is tucked into the picturesque village of Firostefani, just a kilometre from Santorini’s capital, Fira. Set atop a historic windmill that was converted into a charming dining venue in 1997, the restaurant offers a lush courtyard, a roof‑garden terrace and a panoramic view of the caldera and the island’s volcano. The menu showcases traditional Greek and Mediterranean dishes — from pork, lamb and seafood to fresh salads and local cheeses — all prepared with locally sourced ingredients and served alongside a curated selection of fine Greek wines. Known for its romantic sunset soirées, Vanilia becomes a gathering place for couples and diners after dark, where the sky turns fire‑orange against the sweeping blue of the caldera.
