" We ate their ice cream every night and it was so good. The best ice cream in Santorini by far. The olive ice cream and the dark coconut ice cream are a must. "

" A great example of a new modern Greek business taking the best of traditional Greece, with a new contemporary twist. Wonderful selection of homemade ice cream, with a range of flavours that change daily, as good as anything you'll experience on the Italian Riviera. I came here with my son and can tell you this place hits the spot regardless age. The staff are super friendly, speak good English, are awesome with the young ones too. These guys are definitely worth your business! "
