We booked our reservations outdoor on the patio and were seated immediately. There was subtle Mediterranean house music playing and lots of fans blowing to keep us cool in the heat. Our server, Peyton, was super fun and made the experience amazing.
I went to order the cocktail that came in a coconut but I guess they didn't have that one or the pineapple in stock that day. I got a frozen daiquiri instead and it was perfect. My sister got her favorite drink - the Hugo and was excited to have it. All the other cocktails came out amazing and when we asked for a super dirty martini they did not dissapoint.
We got the dip platter, zucchini chips, dolmades, fried halloumi, and crispy calamari for apps. Everything came out super fast and loved trying each one. I really enjoyed the dip platter and the diversity of it. The saganaki was a bit dissapointing though because we could taste the vodka that didn't cook off after lighting it on fire with every bite and was not very appetizing to eat.
We were mostly full but still ordered entrees after all of those apps and they were still amazing. We were celebrating a birthday that night and our server managed to get us a free dessert and popped a candle on it for us to sing to her.
Peyton went above and beyond for us and we were actually shocked when she told us it was her first night on the job. She did amazing!! Would love to come here again as the whole experience was super fun!
Santorini by Georgios served the best Greek food I’ve ever had—even better than some of the meals I enjoyed in Greece. Every dish was packed with authentic flavor, and the live belly dancer with the fire show made for a fun, energetic atmosphere that really elevated the evening. My only criticism is that I wish the restaurant was a bit cleaner. Even so, the incredible food and entertainment make it well worth a visit.

I chose Santorini by Georgios for my bridal shower, and it was one of the best decisions I could have made. As someone who works in the event industry, I’m incredibly particular when it comes to service, food, and overall experience—and this place exceeded every expectation.
Jen was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She was so accommodating, responsive, and made the entire planning process effortless. The restaurant itself is stunning—the décor was exactly my aesthetic, and every detail created the most beautiful atmosphere. And the food? Absolutely incredible. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about it!
Everyone was so impressed by the ambiance, the service, and the overall experience. It truly made my bridal shower unforgettable. Santorini by Georgios is unmatched, and I already can’t wait to find another reason to host an event here. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful venue with exceptional hospitality.

The food was absolutely delicious, the service was excellent, and the views were beautiful. Unfortunately, what should have been a wonderful dining experience was completely overshadowed by one major issue: dogs that were clearly not service animals were allowed to dine inside the restaurant.
To be clear, the restaurant does have an outdoor dining area where other guests were dining with their dogs, and that was completely fine. I have no issue with dogs being in the designated outdoor area. The problem was allowing non-service dogs inside the indoor dining area while people were trying to enjoy their meals.
It completely killed the vibe and took away from what otherwise would have been a fantastic experience. I completely understand accommodating legitimate service animals, but allowing regular pets inside an indoor restaurant is a different story.
The food, service, and atmosphere were otherwise excellent, which makes this especially disappointing. I would definitely consider returning if the restaurant addressed this issue.
Advice. Valet park at the Wharf and walk down.

What a refreshing lunch! They’ve added a few things to their classic South Beach menu. We started with Muhammara, Fattoush salad and Keftedes. Sipping a bottle of Prosecco enjoying the day on the river walk. For the main we had a moussaka. Rob was our server and did an excellent job. There are many other things that I’d love to try so we will be back soon.
