Why Travelers Love KooKoo Bar
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
If you are in Oia for breakfast, lunch or dinner, you need to come here! We loved it so much, we went twice in 2 days! The owners are absolutely lovely, restaurant is beautiful and it doesn’t bother you not having sea-side view because they did an excellent job inside and with their covered patio. However, best of all are the food options. Probably some of our favourites from the island. You won’t be disappointed! We had an amazing dinner here! We ordered the octopus, calamari, grilled vegetables, and truffle pasta — everything was absolutely delicious. The flavors were fresh and perfectly balanced. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Compared to the restaurants near the Acropolis Museum, this place tastes so much better and is also more reasonably priced. Definitely worth a visit! One of the best tasting and affordable places we stopped while in Santorini. To be fair we have not had much time to do so between tours and provided meals but once we had this we had to go again the same day for more. Absolutely recommend the bolognese, and the rack of lamb was fabulous as well. Delicious tatziki and potatoes on the side as well.

I liked this place so much that I came back twice during my stay! Whilst you don’t get the views of the caldera, what you do get is exceptional service from everyone here and even better food. I had the saganaki cheese, seafood pasta, grilled squid, and baklava — all absolutely delicious, with the seafood being especially fresh and full of flavour. I paired the fish meals with their local white wine, and they even offered a complimentary liqueur to finish, which was a lovely touch. As a solo traveller, eating out can sometimes feel a bit daunting, but the team here made it so welcoming and comfortable. I felt truly looked after — highly recommend!

We came here twice during our trip- for breakfast and for lunch! Service is super friendly and welcoming. The food was also great - we got the avocado toast and Greek waffle for breakfast. The avo toast was very fresh and yogurt on the waffle was very good. For lunch, we enjoyed the shrimp pasta and squid!
