My wife and I have come here sporadically for many years. Very good Greek food and authentic atmosphere. Be sure to start with the saganaki!

Without a doubt the best Greek restaurant in Calgary if not the best restaurant in Calgary. The food is excellent and consistently of high quality. The service is personal and friendly without being obtrusive. And the restaurant stays quiet even when it's busy. A delightful way to spend an evening with people you enjoy being with.

Really great food and service, a little noisy, but it's a small place. Very friendly staff will definitely go again.

4 of us ordered Taverna Special last night. It was an incredible feast!! $48 per person is such a generous deal for the variety, quality and quantity they serve. We were all impressed with every single dish. I was particularly amazed by their calamari. It's not an exaggeration to say it is the best calamari I've ever had. The squid was succulent and the breadcrumb was so light and crispy. Great service and quaint atmosphere.

Shared one of the luncheon specials with 4 other friends. Tons of food, and delicious!
OUT of this world flavour and service. We ordered the combination platter for two and everything was absolutely fresh, delicious and had enough for lunch at work tomorrow! Super kind, personable and attentive waitstaff. Will be back!

Looked forward to going back after a long time away. They were able to seat us despite being crazy busy, but still with a reservation. A 15 minute wait seemed like quite awhile for an initial drinks order, so we worried that was going to be the standard set for service. We weren’t wrong.We ordered the calamari and saganaki to start. The calamari was beautifully tender and the saganaki was delicious, but our server’s lighter didn’t work, so we didn’t get the full saganaki experience. That was disappointing. We ordered some pita and tzatziki too and both were yummy and fresh. For the mains, we ordered two souvlaki - one beef (medium rare) and one chicken. Greek salad is noted on the menu as an addition for $4, so we asked for that. Apparently that meant we lost the potatoes, rice and steamed veg sides for one of our souvlakis. So we had to pay extra for salad and lost all the other sides. Seemed weird.Everything was flavourful, but our server clearly forgot about our food since it arrived barely lukewarm and the beef was very rare. We didn’t say anything because we had plans to be elsewhere. If the server hadn’t taken another 15 minutes to bring us our bill, I’d rate this experience higher. Pretty disappointed overall after a very long time away. We’ve had a better experience up the road at Calypso.
The best lamb chops on the world. Cooked/made to perfection ?.

Everything about my experience at Santorini was top-notch!A qauint, rustic little hole in the wall, which served me the best Greek plate I've ever had. Can't wait to come
