Rizes Gastro Taverna Santorini

Rizes Gastro Taverna sits in Fira, tucked away from the main thoroughfare. It serves Greek seafood and Mediterranean plates with a focus on the regional catch.

Most visitors in Fira spend their evenings fighting for space along the cliff-side edges, but Rizes ignores the frantic pace of the caldera front. By choosing a quieter corner of the town, the kitchen avoids the gimmicks often found in high-traffic spots. You come here for the cooking rather than the photo opportunity, making it a better bet for anyone who prefers a focused meal to the standard tourist rush.
