Santorini Cafe

Best Greek food in Austin!Hospitable service!Diner drive in dive vibes!Lamb plate is a must!

This was a pretty reasonably priced and delicious Greek restaurant! And the plates are so filling. The lamb is hot and has a good bite and a bit of a crisp to it which I love. The dolmas are addicting (but two of my friends didn't really like it so take that as you will). And honestly the standout food for us was the pita. It was still warm and crispy while still being bready. I would come back just for the pita. I do wish there was more tzatziki. I was trying to spread it to cover the lamb, dolmas, and pita but there just wasn't enough. And I wish the salad had a bit less dressing, the vinegarette was just so strong. The workers were also so friendly and ended up bringing us some Greek beignets on the house. I was a fan but some of my friends weren't too into it because it tasted kind of sour. But it just reminder me of sourdough and I liked it lol.

I tried their dolamdes, saganaki, babaganoush and pita for appetizers. I enjoyed the babaganoush the most! The dolmades were decent. The saganki was lit on fire but still tasted pretty good. If you get their fish dish, it is fried. I got their meatball plate and enjoyed it too. We also got beignet which had honey on them. The texture was almost like mochi and chewy which were good. We went on a Saturday afternoon and they had live music which was really great to enjoy with friends and families.

Stopped here for dinner while passing through Austin. It was wonderful! The ingredients were fresh and everything we had was delicious. We even enjoyed a little live music. We will definitely recommend this place!

We picked up Gyros, fries, hummus, and a Greek salad for dinner. This place does have diner/dive vibes with a big patio in the back! We were told the wait was going to be about 30 minutes or so, but on a whim, I went in and asked if it was ready after about 10 minutes, and it was! We were pleasantly surprised. Everything was well seasoned, fresh, and tasty! We will be back!

Great salad with lamb. Just the right amount of balsamic vinegar and olive oil, appreciated the feta in large slices rather than crumbles. Calamari appetizer was fresh, not pre-made like other places. Lamb gyro had generous tatziki, evenly distributed, airtight, no drips, leak free. Loukoumades (beneit) were hot, chewy, crispy. Took the greek boiled coffe without sugar, sunk down to the silt floor, then drilled a bit deeper.

This place had good ratings so so popped in for lunch. It was AWFUL! All 3 of us were grossed out. We eat legit Greek and Mediterranean food frequently and this was the worst place we've tried. The pita was dry and stale to the point it was breaking into pieces. The wraps barely had anything in them as far as veg and sauce. The fries were stale and had zero seasoning and weren't edible. Greek places usually have really good fries. The omelette was browned on the outside and unseasoned. The cheese used inside wasn't good. There's $40 we wasted. They brought out complimentary Bernie's and they were hard and didn't taste fresh so we didn't eat but 1. We will not go back. This was beyond a bad day. Good wasn't good. We tried 3 different meals. Th condiments were also all sticky and felt dirty like the salt and pepper shakers.

Got it delivered after I realized I NEEDED a Greek pita stat.While it did the job, it wasn't a blow me away meal, especially with the oil soaked pita bread. The hummus was good though! Worth $9? Probably not.The free beignets were a nice touch, but they weren't my jam.

I had the chicken plate which came with chicken, pita, dolma, tzatziki sauce. The meat was juicy and really well flavored. The pita was buttery, slightly crispy on the outside, and delicious. The tzatziki sauce was incredibly delicious and refreshing. Also, the menu is pretty extensive and the prices are very reasonable. There is a huge patio outside with lots of space if you want to sit outside and there are also lots of indoor seats.

Came here for my second time now and this experience beat the last! The food was so so good and my only criticism last time I was here was that the produce was not very fresh but that was not the case today. I love that they warm up their pita bread here instead of giving it to you room temp. Great service and good vibes!
