Santorini Greek Taverna - Calgary, Alberta

Randomly decide to go to a Greek restaurant and this was super close. Got the metaxa brandy which was delicious! Shared the taverna special which came with 7 plates and every single one was beyond delicious! The staff was also very friendly and will definitely come back! Thank you very ... much! Read more

BEST GREEK FOOD I’VE EVER HAD!!! My husband and I arrived on a busy Saturday night without reservations. They were gracious enough to accommodate us at a table between reservations. We did not know what to expect, but it was WORTH EVERY PENNY & ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Lovely ambiance, the service was wonderful ... as was the food. Feels like you’re in Greece! Can’t wait to go back! Read more

I hadn't been here in over a decade and stopped in for lunch with a friend because one of our other favorite spots was closed. We were pleasantly surprised to discover that the food quality and service had improved, so I brought my wife back here for a birthday dinner. ... The place was packed on a Saturday night and, at one point, a waiter threw a plate on the floor and started a dance. Other staff and patrons joined in yelling Opa! as they danced, which made for a memorable evening. Our favorites, at the moment, are the calamari, roast lamb, moussaka, and bougatsa. We'll definitely be back to try some other dishes on the menu. Read more

I love that it's authentic Greek food and has such a long history in Calgary! Detailed attention to food and service is amazing! I recommend the Combination platter for two to try a bit of everything and portions are enough for three if you add a side of pita bread. The calamari ... is fresh, crispy and tender and comes with tzaziki. The moussaka is authentic and rich. The dolmathes is a bit salty. The spankopita is light and cripsy. The salad, rice, roast potatoes are good. The lamb and chicken souvlaki are lightly seasoned but are a bit dry. The soup we added is very sour and refreshing. The pita bread is cooked on charcoal so might be a bit brown but tastes amazing! The waitress always filled our water and the server was so nice! Definitely on the expensive side but it was worth it. Overall, recommend!! Read more

Great food, good prices compared to portion sizes. Went on a Tuesday night. Seated in the upstairs corner so it ws darker than I liked. Not a ton of service, probably cause they were busy? Food was a lot slower than I am used to at a Greek restaurant. Would still recommend ... and come back. Read more
