Santorini by Georgios

Santorini by Georgios brings Greek island hospitality to the Gale South Beach hotel on Collins Avenue, serving fresh seafood, mezze, and classic Greek favorites in a poolside, open-air setting. The family-owned restaurant pairs grilled octopus, branzino, lamb chops, and lamb gyro with live music, belly dancing, and the occasional plate-breaking celebration that gives the dining room its festive energy.

Breakfast runs from 7am with Greek yogurt bowls and omelettes, while happy hour draws a steady crowd of locals and visitors for discounted apps and cocktails by the pool. The space mixes indoor seating with a garden, pool deck, and rooftop terrace, making it flexible for a quiet weekday lunch or a lively Friday night dinner.

Prices run moderate to upscale with entrees in the $20-80 range, and reservations are recommended, especially for dinner. Whether grabbing a casual breakfast before heading to the beach or booking a table for a celebration dinner, this South Beach spot delivers Mediterranean flavor with genuine warmth from an attentive staff.
