Taverna Ammoudi Kyma

Ammoudi BaySantorini

8.4

Down the 300 steps below Oia, this red-cliff taverna grills the octopus you watched drying on the rope an hour earlier, alongside whole fish priced by the kilo — confirm the weight before it hits the grill and the bill holds no surprises. Waves occasionally claim a table's napkins; nobody minds. The steps back up after a carafe of wine are the honest price of admission, though a water taxi does exist for the wise.

Order this

  • Grilled octopus
  • Whole sea bream by the kilo
  • Fava with capers
  • Assyrtiko by the carafe

The dishes reviewers keep coming back for. Ordering off-list is on you.
