What it feels like

Reading the room, traveller by traveller

  • Couples

    A calmer, less hectic dinner than the rim terraces — just don't expect the caldera-edge view it used to have.

  • Food-led

    Solid, classic Greek cooking in a roomy garden setting; the move inland actually puts the plate ahead of the panorama.
