Candouni was everything we wanted for a beautiful night out in Oia Santorini. The ambiance is second to none, the food was incredible and the owner truly made us feel like family. We will definitely be coming back when visiting Greece again in the future.

The best meal I've had in Greece. Also, one of the best meals I've ever eaten! Spiro was delightful. Ambience is excellent. Perfect place to have a home cooked meal on a cool, windy April night. Thank you very much!

It’s like you have finally got around to visiting an old friend in his home town and he has invited you to his restaurant to eat with his family. In the time since you last saw him 25 years ago he has become an excellent restaurateur and host. Extremely knowledgeable about the provenance of his food and very willing to advise on your meal. A beautiful place to be especially in the evening time when it is lit up with candles.

Gestern gingen wir ins Candouni abendessen und waren sehr begeistert.

Das Ambiente: 10 von 10 Punkte; das Restaurants ist traumhaft eingerichtet, mit viel Liebe zum Detail und dem authentischen Griechischen Flair. So stelle ich mir eine original Griechische Taverne vor.

Der Service: 12 von 10 Punkte ???? Spiros war aufmerksam, sehr höflich und witzig. Man fühlt sich sofort als Gast willkommen.

Das Essen war 10 von 10 Punkte. Ich hatte Lamm und bin in Sachen Fleischgerichte sehr heikel, doch dieses Lamm war phänomenal. Das Gemüse perfekt knackig und die Kartoffel schmeckte auch sehr gut. Der Dessert war sehr lecker, unglaublich leckeres Pistazien Eis mit Schokoladen-Nuss Torte - himmlisch!

Fazit: ich werde bestimmt wieder ins Candouni essen gehen, es war ein sehr tolles Erlebnis.

The ambiance is amazing. We got nice detailed explanation about the house specialities. But we wanted a light meal so had Fava with bread and Fried Zucchini and Aborigines (Brinjal).

The food is tasty and the vibes are traditional greek.

We had booked a table on the advice of Santorini Dave with the intention of having dinner in Oai after hiking from Fira. We were definitely enthusiastic for food and drinks by the time we arrived. But, it took us a few days of reflection (& reading the 1* reviews) before we decided to write this review.

We were in such good spirits after the hike that we sort of didn’t pay attention and happily accepted food recommendations and drank wine with abandon.

The fish - maybe it was off season? - and the chicken were both over-cooked and not as good as other places in Santorini. What was good were the dips served with bread, capers and beets.

In retrospect, we all sort of noticed the slightly off / sour attitude of the person serving us. And realized that although the food was good - it was not great - and it turned out to be way more expensive than other places we dined at in Santorini.

And like other reviews, we had to go up to the register to pay. Every other place we visited has the hand held pos.

Whatever. Which sort of sums up this review.

This was our absolute favorite restaurant in while in Greece! It had the perfect combination of great food and impeccable service. The owner of the restaurant took his time to explain everything to us. We felt like we were a guest in his home rather than a customer. This place is great and I would higly reccomend it!

Very rude owners and staff. We were already siting at the table and they came to take an order. We were planing to have just appetiser, wine and desert. They immediately told us that we must order at least for 50 euros. It was low season and half tables were empty, so I asked why. The answer was even more appalling - "don't tell me how to run my business". We stood up and left. Spent more than that at nearby place.

Ce restaurant est absolument fantastique. Nous avons laissé le propriétaire nous préparer des plats selon son choix et je peux vous dire que nous n’avons pas été déçus. Étant vegan, nous n’avions jamais mangé des plats aussi excellents auparavant. Les deux musiciens nous ont également régalé! Après avoir dégusté plusieurs plats, des boissons, des desserts nous nous attendions à une addition salée, mais celle ci fut de seulement 61€ pour 2 personnes. Ce prix est dérisoire pour un restaurant aussi bien situé avec une très belle ambiance, un super service et de l’excellente nourriture! La musique traditionnelle jouée par les deux guitaristes nous a également laissé sans voix! Je recommande ce très charmant restaurant.

Hidden gem we were so glad we stumbled across. The food & wine were delicious and the live music made for an intimate, homely atmosphere. It was dissapointing to hear one staff member arguing loudly with another staff member over the live music as this detracted from the intimate dining experience.

What an incredible dining experience! The owner, Spyros, took excellent care of us…he truly went above and beyond! We were blown away by how delicious the food was! The mushrooms, fava, saganaki, and Greek potatoes are to die for!! Seriously, get them all!!

I only wish we would have come here prior to our last night on the island! Thank you so much Spyros!!!

Everything here was amazing. All the food was authentic and fresh. The homemade wine had an excellent flavor. The lamb was amazing. The meatballs were amazing. The mousse was amazing, the baklava was amazing(and I don’t like baklava) the steak was incredible. Everything was a 10/10. The owner is very kind and attentive. He cares a lot about his food and the experience you have. He remembered our names when we came back for the last night of our trip. I highly recommend this place to anyone who has a chance to dine here.

Jedzenie przepyszne, niesamowite miejsce, ale niestety obsługa delikatnie mówiąc śmiała się z bardzo ograniczonego angielskiego (niestety nie wszyscy znają ten język), my niestety znamy bardzo dobrze niemiecki. Miny kelnerów i śmiech pod nosem nie był miły. Już tam nie wróciłyśmy. Reszta rewelacja:)

This was possibly the best meal my friends and I had during our two weeks in Greece, which is saying a lot because we enjoyed most of the food during our visit. Food, atmosphere, and attention to detail are the three things that became quickly apparent at Candouni. The owner, Spiro, is passionate about his craft and treats every guest as if they are a guest in his own home. My fiancé and I got engaged just a few hours before our visit, so finding a special place to celebrate love and this next stage of life was very important. Candouni captured the essence I was hoping for such an evening. This will forever be a very fond memory. Make sure to make a reservation!

Great traditional atmosphere! And the Baked Lamb in Parchemin was among the best cooked lamb I have had! The waiter was somewhat intense at the start but livened up and smiled towards the end!

Super adresse! Très bonne cuisine, ambiance agréable et familiale, personnel francophone très cool. Cadre très sympa et fleuri en retrait de l'agitation touristique de leur principale. Le service fut un peu long, mais l'attente récompensée.

Super! Génial! Au top! Le meilleur restaurant que l'on est fait pendant notre séjour, autant par le service que par la qualité des plats. (Que des produits frais)
Très loin des attrapes touristes que l'on trouve en quantité énorme à santorini!
De plus, les prix sont plus que correct!
Un endroit où il fait bon vivre!
