This is one of my favorite places. My grandparents have been taking me here for as long as I can remember. Everything thing is always fresh and delicious. It's a small little restaurant, like sitting at your family's house but it is delicious and packed a big flavor The gyros, soups and salads are my favs. read more

Took out an order of grape leaves (dolma) with a Greek salad and shrimp parm with a side Greek salad (choice of a few sides ) Dolmas were delicious as well as the salad Shrimp parm was good but the red sauce was a little acidic and overbearing. It's a nice neighborhood spot with a really large menu and enough parking around the neighborhood read more

Once again. Good food, great prices, and they are such a pleasure to deal with. Wholeheartedly recommend....

A true delight, and a fixture in the neighborhood for over 30 yrs. Serving Greek & Italian delicacies, Juan was terrific , he has worked at the restaurant for 20 yrs. This lovely Resturant makes you feel like visiting friends ..the food was fantastic and delicious, the Pastichio & home made lasagna were terrific ..I enjoyed a nice warm cup of lentil soup for a cold day ..chicken gyro with warm pita was amazing , calamari was crispy, the steak kabob over rice was fantastic, the Resturant is set up like a traditional pizzeria . So you can order at the counter. Or you can sit for wait service , drinks are caned & bottled .. come by and visit ..the food is delicious and many items on the menu to satisfy everyone's appetite ...also for dessert I recommend the rice pudding read more

Went here on a whim with the Mrs. and the experience could not have been better!! We were welcomed warmly and sincerely, seated quickly and the food was D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!!! From the Chicken & Rice soup, to the hearty and fresh garden salad to the scrumptious Surf & Turf (medium well!). Had to take out some of it and there was no room in the tummy to eat the dessert, which I warmed up at home (with my left over dinner) and feasted all over again!! Thanks for a most memorable experience! We will be back! :fistbump read more

Ok Yelpers, put your monocles away. There's no haute cuisine here, just an inexpensive, local town place. There basically are three stars of food show at Santorinis... 1) Avgolemeno Soup - The most perfect, satisfying blend of chicken, rice and lemon ever created. It's simple, but goes so far on a chilly day when you have a scratchy throat and want some comfort. Santorini's makes the best avgolemeno soup I've ever had, hands down. If I could buy a gallon container and freeze it in small portions for the winter -- I would. 2) Greek Salads with a side of Grilled Chicken - Again, another simple dish done well. Chicken is never dry, but moist and tasty with the right amount of char on the side. 3) Chicken Gyros - Honestly, they're more like a B-list celebrity. Not necessarily your first choice but well liked. Meat can be a little rubbery at times. I've never had the pizza, or much else really. I stick to what satisfies me, and you should too. It's smaller than a shoe-box inside, so get your satisfaction to go. read more

I got takeout from this place a few weeks ago. We had heard good things about this place years ago and it's been on our list to try for a long time. Food was ready fairly fast which was great. I ordered the fettuccine alfredo, fried calamari, a gyro and salad. The gyro was delicious. The pasta was not seasoned enough. The calamari were not fresh. It was definitely frozen out of a box. It tasted good though. I just expected a lot more from this place. It's been around for so long. If you're looking for generic Mediterranean food, that is okay, then look no further. read more

This place has a variety of dishes all are homemade and fresh. The gyros, the chicken cutlet Parmesan heroes. The salads are all top-notch. Enjoy! read more

Good food great service I like their food and the prices are good they also have the best gyro

Santorini's is supposed to be a Combination of Greek, and Italian food, and I guess that it is. But whatever ya want to call it, it's really good. Try their Santorini's Souvalaki, it's really something special. They also have lot of other specials that will make your mouth water for more. Everything here is freshly home made. The have parking available on the street. Thats not going to be a problem. read more

I'm curious as to why this place is rated showing 3 stars when almost all reviews posted are 5 and 4? Hmm I used to drive part this place almost every night on my way home to Brooklyn. Never had a chance to stop in, so recently when I was nearby I decided to head over. I was surprised at how tiny the inside was. Seems a lot bigger from out front. Nothing particular to speak of decor wise. Regular patrons that were spoken to by name, that's nice. I was craving something in particular that wasn't on their menu, but the guy at the front talked me into spinach pie. I figured it would be ready quick and I was starving. I waited about 15 minutes for their dinner special that cost 16$. Large portion of the spinach pie, small soup and garlic bread, side salad. I took it to go and when I arrived home I dug in. The spinach pie wasn't salty at all. To be honest I added salt. That's a first. The bottom was difficult to cut thru. I would get something else if I visited again. Side salad was fresh, very little red onion, small pieces so if you don't like onion you won't be able to pick them out. A tomato and a cucumber here and there. The soup and Bread I ate for lunch the next day. Again not very salty. The soup was fresher than most I've had, orzo was aplenty and not mushy. As stated previously they have great reviews, so more than likely I will try this spot again, altho I do think my meal was pricier than I expected. read more

Great reliable food and friendly staff. The Greek salad is very good and there are a lot of choices on the menu

I have to say this spot is so tiny and I have often just passed by it saying "I wonder who goes there." But now I am one of those people. Greek and Italian in one spot is one of the best things to happen to me. I'm ordering gyros while my family is able to get pizza for the second time that week! Lol the gyros are fresh, the chicken is my favorite, and the lemon and vinegar dressing on their salads is something I crave. I love their fresh tzatziki and always get a side of fries. This is my new local Greek and pizza stop! Pictures to come! The first time I was too excited to eat read more

Love Santorini's Love their food, especially their lemon soup. They are truly an asset to our community.

This is without question the single finest gyro in the world. Having tried many gyros in my life, this is home and the best. The meat, generously provided, is cut thicker with a moistness and flavor that is salted and oiled perfectly. The tzatziki sauce is creamy with strands of cucumber and is a perfect compliment to the savory meat. A balanced blend of onion shredded lettuce, and tomato is provided. The pita is soft and grilled just right so as to provide a slight crunch, without having it be dry or flaky. In short: PERFECTION! The owner and staff are so kind and friendly. This place is a true gem! I lament that I do not live in town any longer, but make it my business to visit here whenever I am. I contemplate offering money to buy their secret gyro recipe! Do yourself a favor and go here and taste the BEST gyro. There is no qualifier, it is the best. Period. Side note: I order mine without onion and tomato, and sometimes add feta. If you like it hotter, I add Tropical brand ghost pepper sauce. It balances well with the creamy tzatziki sauce. read more

I can't rave enough about my favorite place. Everything is super fresh, homemade, portions are plentiful and staff is super friendly. I'm crazy about the stuffed peppers and stuffed cabbage. All the soups are delicious. You can't find better value. It's not fancy which is fine with me. I even had them cater a few private parties and my guests loved the food. read more

Santorini's - Stuffed Cabbage to die for - Italian Near Me - Lynbrook, New York

My sister took us here before we were heading into the city to go see the Bouncing Souls. We were limited on time, and this little place is near to her apartment we decided to come here. It reminded me of Greek Corner in Franklin Square, or Ali Babas in Valley Stream. A tiny with a few tables great for take out. The place was packed with diners. I was under the impression that this place was a greek restaurant (as my sister explained) but really it seemed to have more of Italian/American choices. Now that I look it up on Yelp, I see it is listed as Italian. Since I was craving Greek, I ordered the Pasticcio. My sister and finace ordered chicken Gyros. They give a generous portion of bread for the table to start which we all enjoyed. The food took longer than expected to come out (over a half hour) and mine took about 5-10 mins longer than theirs. Their sandwiches were yummy and so was the fries. Mine was good, but not what I had expected. I knew it would be reheated because pasticcio is made like lasagna, in a large tray.. but this was over cooked/reheated too many times. The top part was very crunchy from being burnt (which I don't mind) and the noodles were almost soggy because they were reheated so long (I prefer my pasta al dente). It tasted good because I love pasta, but it reminded me of reheated leftovers covered in tomato sauce. The host/waiter/busboy was very friendly & accommodating but almost a little too much. Constantly asking us (and others) if we enjoyed everything, needed anything etc - I am sure he was making up for the long wait. He definitely is a hard worker, and did a job that 3 people should have been doing. My main concern was we just wanted our food and the check because we had to run. I probably should have expressed that we were in a rush but even my sister was surprised at how long everything took. In any case, that was my experience. I do realize it was a busy summer evening and they were very crowded so maybe the staff was on overload and their timing was off. I would definitely come back for their dinner special and try something else. read more

Love the Shrimp Santorini and their lamb souvlaki. Small place that creates delicious food . Neighborhood staple.

This may be my favorite restaurant! The food is always amazing no matter what you get! Sometimes people can be hesitant to order American food or Italian food from a place that advertises themself as Greek however I can say first hand no matter what you get from here it will be great! The cheeseburger deluxe never disappoints, the Greek salad is fantastic and even the chicken francese is to die for. The prices are also amazing! Staff is always friendly and helpful. Highly recommend! read more

My father and his wife come over for dinner every few weeks and always insist on bringing dinner. (no complaints here=) So a few months ago they brought over food from Santorini's. It looked Italian, they claimed it was Greek, yet besides confusing the hell out of me...tasted GREAT! I really couldn't believe how good it was. I don't recall exactly what we got the first time, (now keep in mind this was takeout, and it was amazing I can't wait to get the food in house) and I loved it. Last night, we had some chicken stuffed with spinach and mushroom, over DELICIOUS rice. We also had some linguine with shrimp, feta cheese, sauce...I honestly have no freaking idea what else they put in there but it was amazing. The Eggplant was a cousin of Italian Rollatini, stuffed with spinach and feta/ricotta and was something out of a sci-fi movie...but actually GOOD unlike sci-fi. The salads were very good too, nothing like an Italian dressing with stuffed grape leaves...seriously I was cracking up at the food but the joke was on me as it was all delicious. Here are some cons I found: The bread they give you looks delicious, (again its like an Italian Focaccia bread) but it lacked salt, entirely. Its texture was off a bit as well. The plain pasta with red sauce was just bad, no hard feelings Santorini's you make up for it with your entree's but might want to go the extra mile on the sides and table breads. Overall, I can't wait to eat here again even with some hiccups. read more

Limited seating but worth it. Outstanding food fresh and tasty. Very authentic Italian and Greek food and reasonable prices. Parking is limited to on street. read more

The restaurant looks like a hole in the wall. Don't let looks fool you. The food is good. I had grill chicken over greek salad. It was a huge portion. The chicken was great and juicy. The food was very fresh. The service was great and friendly. read more

This is a sleeper , you can't go wrong with the Greek or the Italian . The food here and service is five out of five! The attitude of the staff is overly accommodating almost too a fault if that can be !!!! Try it you won't be sorry !!!! It reminds me of businesses growing up where they were happy too have you as a customer!!!! read more

Its simple ...its a whole in the wall thats always crowded bc the food is good the prices are great and you get alot. Its the kind of place where everyone knows your name. Paul Dave and Franny make this place worthwhile every night... My suggestion try the lasagna and the chicken ala dave. Youll be amazed!!! read more

In 4th grade we made a list of favorites and shared with the class: "color - red, sport - bball, person - my dog, restaurant - Santa Reenies". Our lovely, lovely TA, much to my delight, agreed: "Ohhh Beenn! I love Santorini - I love going there for lunch!" ". . . Oh Wonderful Woman, I am a San Treenee EX-pert, as they say," said 9 year-old me. "Please say my name again." Yes, just like that. And yes, I AM an expert. True fact #1 - 593-9600 was the 2nd phone # i memorized only after my house phone. True fact #2 - they recognized my voice and identity with just the incomplete phrase: "Hi I'd like to place an...". True fact #3 - my dog was able to predict when the delivery guy would come 2-4 minutes before his arrival. We ordered from there all the time because of the variety; greek, italian, american - they have it, and they make it well (True fact #4). Different combos of gyros, moussaka, a good greasy cheeseburger, pork chop over rice, baked ziti, veal parm... And the staff there is really nice. I'm honestly not a fan of their pizza (chewy crust - not in a fresh, doughy way, and too much cheese) so I tell them i want it extra crispy and light on the mozzarella - 'no problem', I want my fries crispy too! - 'ok Suure', my burger was a little too well last time - 'got it boss'. and now they know how i like it! and if you get the chance to stop in, it's tiny and on the same block as a 7-eleven, but there are a few tables and it's actually quite pleasant eating there. 3-4 stars for Italian and American food, 4 stars for Greek (yet to come across a better or greasier gyro - fact #5). Relative to other local spots of both past and present, for everything they offer, and because 9-year old me has a lot of influence on this review - 5 stars. I was away a couple of years, have since returned, and yes, they are still the same nice business and same food and portions. One of the few memories from my childhood that still remains intact - thank you Santorini! read more

Best Gyro I've ever eaten!! We order Gyros from here all the time they're excellent. We've also had the Hummus and Lemon Orzo Soup both delicious. We've heard from multiple people that the rest of their food is amazing but have yet to try it because the gyros are so good. The staff there is also outstanding. Fast and friendly service. Highly recommended!!! read more

Pardon me, i have never eaten here. The problem is i have been trying to eat here for a year. Three times I came to get food and failed. My family loves pizza and gyros and your reputation says you are good for both. The hours are not typical of a restaurant and this is very frustrating. 1) closed for a holiday (not a major one) which was weird for a restaurant...thank God for Chinese food. 2) 2nd visit they closed the entire shop to go to a wedding 3) are they even open on Sunday's? I never heard of a restaurant closed on a weekend and they were closed when i went on a Sunday... I have no idea what is going on. I have never tried a restaurant 3 this many times and could not even get in the door. read more

Ok so I've dined here twice, for lunch and dinner. I've only eaten the Greek dishes, so can't comment on quality of the Italian ones. The place is truly a hidden gem. It looks like a true hole in the wall. It attracts regular locals who understand the value of unpretentious quality dining at affordable prices. I had the vegetables wrapped in eggplant parmigiana for dinner. The dinners come with choice of various soups, plus a Greek or Garden salad, choice of desert and Carlo Rossi table wine. I finished everything on my plate, and my wallet didn't take a beating. Guess that's because I didn't pay anyway, ha ha. Seriously, where else can 2 people leave stuffed (and tipsy) for thirty bucks ? I'd come back anytime, if in the area. read more

Excellent family owned restaurant. Great gyros. I love this place and have to visit whenever I'm in town.

This little hole in the wall place has been a Lynbrook icon for what seems like generations. The building appears to have been renovated quite significantly recently. The food is top notch Italian/Greek comfort food. My family tends to stick to two items in particular: their gyros and their Greek salad with grilled chicken. Both are incredibly satisfying and make you want more. I always order take-out from them every one-two weeks. A lot of the locals like to eat at the place, which can make it fairly crowded for dinner time. My only critique is that I am not a very big fan of their pizza. read more

Let me say that my husband and I eat here at least once a week. My house was destroyed by hurricane Sandy so I haven't had a usable kitchen for a very long time - so we are lucky to have Santorini so close by! Ok, it's not a fancy place but we don't care at all. The prices are beyond reasonable and portions are monster sized . The chef and our usual waiter Paul are just the nicest guys. Our favorite dishes are the salmon (really terrific !) or their stuffed cabbage. They deliver locally but we enjoy getting out of the house and often see friends who now found our secret. You can't go wrong at Santorini! read more

Red snapper. Plus baked sweet potato, soup, Greek salad, garlic knots, spinach pie and wine. Great food. read more

Love the food, always a dependable four course meal and a courtesy glass of wine. Shrimp parm or Franchese excellent. The pork chop is dependable. Love the soups yankee bean, chicken rice, lentil all help to define what comfort food is. read more

The foods is very good and the staff is extremely friendly and professional, making the dining experience to notch. Granted this is not a fancy foo foo restaurant, but it certainly delivers on a pleasant, if not, fun time. I certainly will return here. read more

We work in the area and are always looking for places to eat within walking distance. THIS WAS WORTH THE WALK. Small place but the amount of food you get for the price is incredible. On top of everything else food is really good. (Saved the best for last) This will absolutely be a 2 times a week place! read more

I haven't gotten take out here often, but I've experienced the dine in experience a few times. As far as the food goes it is hands down some of the best Italian and Greek food I've had on Long Island. If you get their dinner deal it comes with salad, soup, and dessert! The portions here are enormous! Always have some extra food to bring home. I've had the broiled salmon, and the Fra Diavolo pasta both were delicious. Only reason this place falls a star shot is because of the restaurant itself. I always appreciate a small hole in the wall restaurateur, but this place is really tiny, and if your dining there it can be uncomfortably crowded, and noisy. read more
