Spilia

Spilia (Greek for "Cave") offers a dramatic and sophisticated atmosphere that is unique even by Mykonian standards. For over 30 years, it has been a must-visit for those seeking the ultimate seaside dining experience. The restaurant is built into a natural cave overlooking the turquoise waters of the Aegean, allowing guests to dine on a wooden deck suspended over the sea. The aesthetic is one of elegant simplicity, focusing on the raw beauty of the rocks and the water.

The culinary philosophy is centered entirely on freshness. Spilia is famous for its live seafood—urchins and lobsters are kept in a natural sea pool within the cave and prepared to order. The menu changes twice daily based on the catch brought in by local fishermen from the southwest coast. Signature dishes include the legendary lobster pasta and fresh sea urchin, served alongside a refined wine list and premium cocktails. Whether for a sun-drenched lunch or a romantic sunset dinner, Spilia provides a high-end sensory journey that perfectly captures the vibrant yet tranquil essence of Mykonos.
