About Santorini

Santorini is a Greek restaurant on St Botolph's Street in Colchester, serving a menu built around classic Greek gyros and doner. The kitchen offers chicken gyros, a chicken and pork gyro, and chicken and lamb doner, alongside the broader Greek lineup. The setting is a straightforward sit-down room that focuses the experience on the food itself. It operates as a walk-in restaurant, with diners ordering at the counter. The menu and ordering format make it a practical stop for a casual lunch or an evening meal in the centre of town.

Customer Review Summary

Reviews split sharply between diners who call the food the best Greek in town, praising the gyros and friendly service, and customers who describe rude staff, inflated pricing versus other kebab shops, and wrong orders, with one reporting being shouted at when calling about the mix-up. Several would return, others say they will not order again.

  • Salman Hayat
    “Average food as all kebab shops, but thats not the issue. The staff was so rude, he didnt even try to explain that they have different pricing from all other kebab shops. He literally “ok go you can go somewhere else” their rates are much higher than all other kebab shops for even a Regular chicken/lamb doner. Not going again”
