Dimitris Skarmoutsos reimagines Greek classics on the Imerovigli cliff
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
On the caldera cliffs of Imerovigli, The Athenian House plates contemporary takes on regional Greek cooking from celebrity chef Dimitris Skarmoutsos, who founded it in 2016 and still leads the kitchen into its tenth season. The menu reimagines classics through a lens of Mediterranean simplicity — a signature lamb moussaka with Santorini white aubergine, tahini and feta among them — paired with Greek wines.
Editor's Tip
Yes, it has one of the best caldera sightlines of any Santorini table — but the gourmet menu is the reason it survives the cut, with Skarmoutsos's regional cooking doing the work.
