Our Philosophy
Rooted in Tradition. Grown from the Land. Inspired by Today!Tradition Meets Creativity
A celebration of what is local, seasonal, and real.
Our farm-to-table philosophy is at the heart of everything we do. We work closely with local producers from Santorini, the Cyclades and across Greece, sourcing seasonal ingredients that carry the stories of their origin. This close connection allows us to create dishes that are pure, honest, and deeply expressive of place and time.
Set on the caldera cliffs of Fira, Rizes blends Greek culinary heritage with modern interpretation, offering a refined yet familiar dining experience. Our food is paired with a curated selection of Greek and Santorini wines, and served with the essence of true philoxenia — heartfelt hospitality.
A Space That Reflects the Soul of Greece
Architecture & Wine Cellar
Rizes is not only about flavors — it’s also about atmosphere and aesthetic.
Our space was designed by the multi-awarded interior architect Dimitrios Oikonomou, who created a seamless blend of traditional Cycladic elements with modern lines.
The result is a warm, elegant environment that invites guests to feel both grounded and inspired — from the stone-paved terraces to the handpicked interior textures and lighting.
At the heart of the experience is our traditional wine cellar, housing a rich and curated selection of labels from both Greek and international vineyards.
The wine list reflects our commitment to quality and variety — a perfect pairing for our cuisine and a celebration of the oenological wealth of Greece and beyond.
