Gourmet Greek Vegan

5 Sences is as of now the only vegan restaurant on Santorini. It’s located near the Main Square in Fira and has indoor and outdoor fine dining as well as less expensive smoothie and yogurt shop downstairs.

Venues
If you want a sweet or drink perhaps checkout downstairs before or after your meal as the prices are significantly less and the v donuts and v Greek yogurt are great!

The upstairs restaurant has a chill, modern ambience. The staff is very attentive. Perhaps due to these factors, 5 senses can be quite expensive when it comes to mains, deserts, and drinks.

Food
I ordered the polenta and bean sausage appetizers. The polenta was small but exceptional: crisp outside, soft inside, sweet almonds, sour and herbal white sauce. The sausage, however, was a disappointment—I could have made this at home. The sauce and sausages lacked spice and flavor, and the sausage texture was slightly mushy.

Pros: All vegan, Greek options like vegan feta and shrimp, Great ambience and service

Cons: Very expensive, Hit or miss food

Amazing vegan fine dining

Vegan street food is relatively easy to find in many areas of Greece, but fine dining experiences are few and far between.

The varied menu made it hard to choose. I had the saganaki, fruity sensation salad, and risotto from the roots paired with a great vegan Greek white wine. As if that wasn't enough, I ordered cheesecake to take back to the hotel with me for later indulging 😂

It was all amazing, some of the best vegan food I've ever had.

Pros: Varied menu, Wonderful friendly staff, Beautiful rooftop garden space

Great food and vibe, but pricey

The linguine carbonara was delicious and really authentic - tasted like the real thing! The menu is varied and creative, but the portions are on the small side and pricey (although that is to be expected on Santorini). The staff are really friendly, and the vibe is nice.

Best vegan food I've ever had

We were in Santorini last week and ate here practically every day and tried to eat everything on the menu. We've been to vegan Michelin-star restaurants and this food was actually better. Absolutely outstanding quality of the ingredients + the skill of the chefs has turned this into a restaurant we'll never forget. If we could transport this restaurant back to Berlin, we'd do it in a heartbeat! Although it wouldn't be so good for our waistlines, we'd eat there every day! Our waiter was Christina and she was SO attentive and friendly, really made our experience that much better.

Pros: THE FOOD, The food, Staff was phenomenal as well

Cons: None, None, None

Only vegan restaurant in Santorini doesn't disappoint

This is the only truly vegan restaurant of the island and it's truly amazing. The interior is very pretty and the food is incredible. We had tomato fritters and moussaka to go one day as we had to make the bus, as well as some ice cream and the fava beans, beetroot risotto and purple roll another day. The purple roll was my favorite, never had anything like this! We loved that it has some traditional Greek dishes as well as some more unique ones. Prices are about the same as other restaurants. All in all, we highly recommend this if you are in Santorini!

Pros: All Vegan, Greek staples as well as unique dishes, Great quality, pretty restaurant

Must visit in Santorini

Only 100% vegan restaurant in Santorini, with many veganized traditional dishes! During our first visit we had the gyros and kebab, which was really good, but missed some veggies. The second time we had the moussaka, which was allright. The third visit we had the pesto-kale pasta and the carbonara, which was good. We also tried the citrus temptation for dessert, which was amazing.

The restaurant is also very trendy and has a nice terrace. It is located in the cosy city centre of Fira.

Definitely recommend!

Updated from previous review on 2022-04-30

Pros: Greek dishes, as well as burgers etc

Cons: A bit pricy, but that is standard in Santorini

Only plant based restaurant in Santorini!

The restaurant is very nice with a patio upstairs. It was fairly new (1 year) when I went. My friends and I ordered the beyond burger (it was ok, I had better), pasta carbonara which was good but I recommend asking for extra parmesan on the side to coat on top and the purple roll, which was a eggplant dish with peppers and onions it had a lot of flavor and good sauces on the dish.

Food is a bit pricey but I feel like alot of food in fira is pricey.

After dinner go downstairs for dessert. Thankful for vegan ice cream. They also have vegan smoothies and frozen yogurt.

Pros: Plenty options, Free shot of cucumber, ginger, and coconut cream, Ice cream store with vegan options downstairs

Cons: Pricey but Fira is already expensive

Gyros wrap

Try the wrap you won’t be disappointed, lots and flavour and texture like meat. Consists of mushroom so it has the texture.

Had baklava also, the portion was massive.

A MUST try in Santorini

If I could give 10 stars, I would. We went twice, once for lunch and once for a late dinner. It was like seeing friends again when we entered the restaurant! We wanted dishes from the lunch menu (they have different menus depending on time of day) and it was no problem whatsoever. Owner asked us to sit down while they prepared our food to go, we had the best vegan pina colada while waiting and was served blankets. SUPER friendly staff, big portions and fresh food. I wanna eat here every day!!

Pros: Vegan/vegetarian restaurant , Lots of different meals, Amazing staff

Good food, nice staff

This restaurant definitely has a very nice ambiance, it's beautiful and cozy, and the staff is so incredibly nice! The menu is entirely vegan (though they do have vegetarian options, such as yoghurt dips etc.) and you have many options. I would say that it is very pricy, so it is more of a special-occasion place, which is sad considering there are so few all-vegan places in Santorini. But still, worth a visit for sure!

Pros: All-vegan menu, Very tasty food, Super friendly staff

Cons: Quite expensive

The (only) fully vegan-place? And so good!

We somehow missed this place from Happy Cow and heard it from our hotel lady on our last day. I wish we could have tried more food, but everything we tried was good. Really liked the shrimp appetizer. The staff was super nice, attentive and it was a good atmosphere. As for everything in Santorini, it wasn't cheap, but totally worth it for us.

The food is also a lot more creative than most vegan places -- most of what we saw on the menu isn't something we necessarily in most vegan places (eg. not just buddha bowls and burgers :))

Their lunch menu looks amazing too: vegan kebab, gyros etc. Really want to go back and try it!

Pros: Everything is or can be made vegan, Very creative menu, Super nice staff

Cons: A bit pricy

Great vegan food

The majority of the food here is vegan with some vegetarian food clearly marked! We went for the lunch menu and had the Sarmadakia, which is vine leaves stuffed with rice and they were incredible! I had the mushroom gyros and my partner had the artichoke pasta and all the food was really good and good portion sizes! The service here is also great!
