Back in August, my husband and I had our wedding reception at the Sphinx and it was a wonderful experience. Julia, George and all the staff were really fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. All the guests commented on the superb food and the breath taking views from the Sphix. We returned for a family meal and the whole... more

We were only going to be spending one night in Santorini so we had to chose our meal Well. After much walking reading and asking we went to the Sphynx. Being Italians we had a complete 4 course dinner. We were very hungry because hadn't eaten since the previous evening in Naxos. We had a delightful meal. We could taste... more

Sphinx is ideally placed to provide excellent views of the Caldera and famous sunset as seen from Fira town, over the old port. Having called a few days beforehand to reserve a table "right at the front" was most dismayed to be placed further back. Apparently "At the front" doesn't actually mean this, they seemed to have the front tables... more

Every time we visit Santorini dinning at Sphinx is a must. The food is outstanding, the service is excelent, and the view is out of this world. This year we were lucky enough to view the Volacano festivitis from the Spinx terrace. Thanks Joulia for a wonderful dinner. more

We ate in this restaurant in September, for us the meal was cold, pricey and forgettable, would nt bother with the restaurants on the edge of the Caldera you are just paying for the view, much better restaurants around in the side streets,try Dionysos in Atlantis much better value and good fresh food more

It was our first night and thought where better than to eat good food overlooking the water. The Sphinx is located in Fira, just off the main street that looks over the Caldera. The atmosphere was cold. The service was cold. I guess it's trying, but something has to change in the kitchem. All was good for starters, well you... more

Had dinner for 2 there on 10/6/08. The service was truly awful as the waiter had only a mind-numbing vocabulary of one or two words for each question though he could clearly speak English. Both dishes were so over salted that i returned my black tagliatelle pasta and the waiter dimly picked up the plate and could care less. (Don't... more

This place had been recommended by a friend who had eaten there four times during a two week holiday so we thought we would give it a go. We called in earlier in the day and booked a table for that evening, a Saturday. We asked for a nice table and the waiter reassured us he would arrange this. True... more
