If you haven't tried this place yet, what are waiting for? The food is fabulous (Chicken Gyros) The owner and chef (Adrian) is so welcoming and generous, the attention to detail is superb. This place needs your support or we will lose a little piece of Greece in our own town center.

Mixed review … lovely food - hot, tasty and massive portions! Everything we ordered was the ‘owners take’ on the actual listing 🤷♀️ but it was delicious! No desserts at all though … apparently they hadn’t arrived on the delivery 🤦♀️

Well, some things just don't work out the way they are planned. The meal was served 8 minutes after we ordered. So, it was definitely warmed up lunchtime or yesterday's leftovers. The plates were cold. My lamb kofte was so dry I had to drink wine with it. Hard dry crust and very dry on the inside tzaki sauce was nice but only a dessertspoonful - why so stingy?. My partner!s Moussaka had no spices, cinnamon, and nutmeg missing, barely any bechemal sauce and dry as my lamb. They were very lucky as if I had been paying. I would have refused to pay for them. My partner let me list all the things that were "not satisfactory," then she paid for them anyway! I just failed to see why she meekly paid. But then again, to keep the peace, I did as she asked & said nothing when the bill came! The chilled rose wine & hot baklava desserts were excellent - & That's the only reason why I gave Sanorini's a 2nd star!!!

3 months on and still no heating?? Just come on here to leave a 4/5 review but read previous reviews from December saying the restaurant was cold, well last night is was Baltic ! And to find out the owners haven’t done anything about it since last year is really poor Starters and mains were tasty and good quality and we thought good value money until we were hit with a £9.90 charge for a Greek salad that was a cheap packet salad with some feta thrown on top - hugely expensive and strange to charge so much considering their early bird menu is three courses for a tenner ?? Wouldn’t return

Food was incredible and lovely big portions. The only thing I can fault was that it was very cold. I suspect the radiators were broken as there was an electric heater plugged in. Other than the restaurant temperature the food and service was faultless. Will defo go back

Our second visit in the last couple of months. The food was very tasty and service was good. The main problem was the lack of heat. We all had to sit and eat with our coats on - crazy! Put us off a bit to return in the winter

The chicken yeeros main says it comes with 'plenty of chicken strips' - they weren't kidding! fantastic food; I had the grilled halloumi meze and chicken yeeros main which came with amazing tzatziki, chips, pita, and salad. The large portion size was thoroughly enjoyed.

It's the second time I've visited for a meal, can not fault the food and service however on both of the occasions I have been asked if I don't mind leaving earlier than I would of liked after I had eaten a meal It was because the table had been booked for another party. Its not what I liked while I was trying to enjoy my husband's birthday with family. Don't think I'll return.

Ordered the chicken wraps, Tyrokafteri (very spicy) and Tiramasu to work to get us through a nightshift. Chips were delicious and the wraps were unbelievable. Service was amazing- light hearted, warm but professional messages and nothing too much trouble. When they found out we were nurses they went above and beyond to deliver after closing time and even gave us some lovely extras. Thanks again!!

Date night on Friday. We booked a table for 8pm and when we arrived we had the whole restaurant to ourselves. It was a lovely relaxing atmosphere. The girl serving was really pleasant and efficient. It was our first visit here so naturally we wanted to try everything. For starters we had a flat bread (kind of a sweet pitta bread) which was very moreish and a portion of pork meatballs. These were really tasty yet light and the sauce they were in (tomaty, ragu kinda taste) was delicious. The chef gave us a complimentary portion of chips so that no sauce got wasted. The chips were amazing! Home made fat chips sprinkled in mixed herbs. For our mains, I had a chicken wrap, again made from the flat bread...inside was loads of flavoursome chicken, onions, tzatziki sauce, and more chips. The portion was huge, I couldn’t eat it all. My boyfriend had pulled pork...again a massive portion with lots of fresh salad and chips. We had 2 drinks each & the bill was just over £47. No drinks of draft so therefore they’re a little more expensive. Not a complaint, just an observation. The chef himself came out from the kitchen to tell us about the ‘specials’ and to check we were enjoying our food, once it arrived. A really lovely touch - you can tell he is really proud of the business. The server mentioned they are having a Greek night soon - would highly recommend trying this. Thanks for a lovely night.

What a find, a fantastic Greek restaurant in the heart of Darlington. I visited this evening with my wife and received a fabulously warm welcome from the staff and owner. We had the chicken gyros (moist and beautiful) and the greek salad (fresh authentic Greek ingredients). Really excellent food. The restaurant also offers Greek beer and spirits. Highly recommended!

As a family we all love Greek food so was delighted when I found this restaurant in Darlington. The food was just delicious and all four of us had something different (2xkids and 2xadults) so we were able to try each other’s and all of us said we could have eaten any of the dishes. The portions are a good size, fresh and very tasty. The owner welcomed us as we entered the restaurant and then came to check we had enjoyed our meal after we had finished. That in my opinion is the sign of a good chef who is confident in the quality of his/hers food. We will definitely be back. Lots of parking as well near the restaurant if you decide to drive. If like us you enjoy Greek food then this restaurant is a must!

A group of six of us met for an evening meal on a Friday night. One couple had gone to the OTHER SANTORINI in Tubwell Row!!! It was closed. So make sure you go to 5, Crown Street! Not too busy, but we were welcomed by Georgios and his staff. He explained various dishes with enthusiasm. A range of meze dishes acted as a starter to dip into (no pun intended), folowed by rather large portions of main courses. The lamb and pulled pork were good, but the chicken dish was not as hot as it ought to have been. We didn't have room for desserts, but he brought us a portion of his own Victoria sponge with six spoons! Nice gesture!

We were looking for a really nice Greek restaurant and we decided to give it a try. Firstly it didn't look typically Greek, it was more an English cafe. But when we got the menu, we had a really difficult time to make a decision, there were so many Greek delicacies!!!. We tried the marvelous kleftiko and were astonished with the giant Pita. The meze were also excellent. Everything was made with respect to Greek cuisine, of best quality materials and nicely and quick served. The staff were pleasant and helpful. Great time out with family. We will definitely come again!!!

We've dined at santorini several times. Georgios welcomes you as if you're family. His food is amazing. This time I wanted a takeaway for 6 people. He offered me a coffee while we sat and discussed which food to order. The food was ready on time(with extra goodies). He explained how to heat up the various dishes, as I collected it a couple of hours before we were going to eat it. You can't help but fall in love with Georios and his food. I highly recommend dining in his restaurant or getting a takeaway from him. It's the best Greek food in England.

Georgio sent flat bread and tszatsiki for us whilst we waited for our food to be cooked. I had lamb steak which was the most tender and tasty that I have had in ages. All our party really enjoyed our mains. I had baclava for dessert...omg it was to die for. Georgio had made lemon drizzle cake that morning which my friend had.....delicious. I wish I lived nearer as we would eat here a lot! Georgio introduced my husband to Mythos beer which he loved. If you haven't eaten here yet you are missing a trick. Fantastic place

Santorini is situated opposite the main post office in Darlington on Crown street and I would highly recommend that you go and try the delicious Greek cuisine. The proprietor, and Chef is a great host and goes above and beyond to make your meal special. Huge tasty prawns in a light batter, along with halloumi and toasted pitta filled us up even before the mouth watering lamb and beef fillet steaks smothered in the special recipe Santorini sauce! Make sure you leave room for a little of something sweet...the Baklava is to die for. Having been to the island of Santorini many times, Santorini in Darlington makes me pine for a return, but this restaurant certainly is worth booking for an authentic Greek meal...and certainly cheaper than a flight! Definitely one to return to. (And soon)...

The food was absolutely delicious and large portions. Great service the staff were so friendly. The only thing that spoilt it was that it was so cold. My husband put his coat on first then I put mine on along with my scarf. It kind of ruined the evening. It's very popular for takeaways and with it being a small room everytime the door opened what little heat there was went straight out the door. This won't stop us going back at all however it will be for a lunch and in warmer weather. Please go for their stunning authentic food don't be put off by chilly nights.... wear a jumper

This was my first taste of Greek cooking and I really enjoyed my meal. The meat in my chicken gyros was perfectly cooked and flavoured - the lamb and pork dishes my friends had were just as tasty. Prices are very reasonable and the service is good. Definitely worth a return visit!

If you like authentic, delicious home cooked Greek food then you need to give this place a try. Since having Santorini recommended to us, we have sampled a few dishes, all freshly cooked, authentic, absolutely delicious and cracking value for money, a little gem of a find!

Lovely little venue for some pre cinema food. We had hummus and tzatiki for starters but when the main cause they were huge and we left lots. Only complaint I can give is that it is very bright inside with the white walls. Dimmer lighting would improve the ambience.

Home cooked authentic Greek food, the best outside of Greece. George always gives a warm welcome and will try to cater for anything you request.

A small intimate cafe style eatery with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The owner and chef is super friendly and nothing seems too much trouble and he is obviously passionate about his food which is delicious and freshly cooked. Authentic Greek food and drink. We've been meaning to go here for a while and now we've been we will definitely return and recommend.

I have visited this establishment on quite a number of occasions now and have never been disappointed. I have always found the food to be of a good standard and the portions are very generous. I have always received a warm greeting and the chef is passionate about what he does. The stifado is incredible and the lamb kebabs are very good also. I did have the seafood pasta once and that was also very good. If you want high end restaurant then maybe this isn't the place for you, but if you want good quality, tasty food freshly made then I would highly recommend. It is incredible value for money.

I went in hoping for authentic Greek food but left disappointed. I ordered the pitta bread and olives which were fine but then you can't mess that up. After that I ordered the lamb kebabs. I was concerned (as the only customer in at the time) when the sound of the microwave began. Sure enough less than five minutes later my lamb kebabs were served... with chips. Neither of which should have been possible if cooked fresh to order in that time frame. The portion size was good and tasted ok but if you care for authentic Greek cuisine you'd be as well off stopping at Tesco yourself.

I had pasta with olives, feta & onion and the dish was barely there. It was just a chunk of plain pasta with 1-2 olives and 1gram of feta with four pieces of onion. The pasta was supposed to be in a milky-cream white sauce but was instead completely dry and was covered with dried/cold butter and it felt like I was eating candle wax.

Visited this place after seeing a friends takeout gyros and wanted my own! We wandered in to find the place was actually closed but the owner / chef couldn't have been more helpful and prepared and served us two amazing pork gyros anyway! Made to order in just a few minutes while we watched and they were absolutely delicious! The Greek bread was amazing. And the cheesecake! Wow! Never had cheesecake like it! The restaurant itself is nicely set out and spotlessly clean and maintained! I want to try everything on the menu now. Will definitely be returning, probably a dozen times (!!) and will recommend to everyone!

Called in here on the recommendation of a friend. They do a lovely stiffado which was a success with the males in our party as was the mousaka. The chicken salad was good value with a larger than average portion of chicken as well their own home made dressing. There is a selection of tapas dishes which can be used as a meal in their own. Small place so you may need to book.

We visited here tonight for the first time, we had two amazing mains (the lamb was literally falling apart on the fork it was so tender) that were excellent sized portions, served piping hot and a garlic naan that was also generously sized. All food cooked fresh and to taste, the staff were very observant and lovely to chat to. We will definitely be coming back soon.

First of all, the food and service were really good. We had a small break at the hotel and had been recommended by reception to book a table for evening meal. What let this restaurant down is on an evening it lacked atmosphere. It s hard to explain, but it was very bright and because it was linked to the spa, people were eating in there sat in the spa dressing gowns. Unusual for a restaurant we were recommended to make a reservation for and we turned up dressed for diner. A little mood lighting could go a long way.

Definitely the best Cafe in Darlington without a doubt, the menu choice, the food, the service is excellent top marks. I have been coming to this cafe for over a year now. This cafe should continue with same staff, service, menu choices and food. Best In Darlington by far. It would be an injustice and a tragedy if it was to close or change.
