Down an alley, which was off another alley sits Roka, a hidden gem. You won't find it unless you look, really look hard for it. Thank you Tripadvisor for bringing it to our attention. Roka (spelled Poka on an occasional sign along the way) is a warm and inviting place with unpretentious paper tablecloths and napkins. Totally casual. Totally fabulous... more

After trying other restaurants suggested by a trip advisor specialist we visited this lovely gem ( also on his list).We ate here 5 times during our week stay!!! This little restaurant is off the main street-quite difficult to find at first- but well worth the search. There is a balcony , plus indoor seating- both quite charming. However it is... more

Recommended by a friend, we went to this little place a week ago for some very good food. Having eaten quite badly in poor tavernas in our 3 weeks islands hopping,this was a pleasant change. We had a nice pear and parmesean salad with pine nuts (nothing very special, but tasty), then some snails with tomato and garlic sauce, mussels... more

Once you find Roka down the little back streets of Oia it's like discovering a little Greek gem. No fancy table cloths here, paper napkins but a wealth of traditional Greek fare to feed your soul. They have good quality bottled water and serve it in half pint glasses....but do you know, it doesn't matter one bit !!! We had... more

We happened on this restaurant by accident. The food was excllent, and the service, while short on words, was polite and helpful. We ordered the saganaki which was excellent, the snails with tomatoes which were unique, and mussels which were plump and tasty. We also had the Roka salad with pears, parmesean and pine nuts-- perfect! The only trick is... more

Roka is a cozy, out-of-the-way restaurant that feels like dinner in a big house. It was warm and inviting, and the food was very good at inexpensive prices. Nothing flashy, but good food and comfortable atmosphere. It was nice to get out of the stream of other tourists to feel that you were dining with residents of the island. more

Roka was, in my opinion, reasonbly priced by Santorini standars - about €5-6 for cold meze (tzatsiki/fava etc) and around €10-13 for risottos/a rather nice beef stew. The drinks were very reasonable - house wine by the half litre was €4.50 and soft drinks were about €1.80 - note that some places charge over €3 for a coke. The food... more

Roka Restaurant (very good service) We really enjoyed the food here at this local restaurant with local styled cuisine. We didn’t mind the cats that try to befriend you after your food is served, but the food was really good so i wasn't sharing. The funniest thing that happened was that as we were waiting for our check after dinner,... more

This restaurant was by far the best we have been to in Oia. Great food and excellent service, just cannot be compared. Trust me. Just go. You'll see. While we were there, other cafe owners from the area showed up for dinner after they closed their own shops. It's that good. Pork tenderloin, calamari and the chocolate souffle is a... more
