Description

There's a lot of crappy Greek food in this area, which is what makes Santorini practically a destination restaurant. The souvlaki sandwiches star chunks of tender beef or chicken treated with oregano and salt and then basted with lemon as they grill. The gyros meat comes from the same place that where all gyros originates (Chicago, natch), but it's lovingly sliced, annointed with a tangy homemade tzatzaki, and served with piles of fresh vegetables. And then there's the garlicky skordali, the world's only great potato spread.
