Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We heard off one of the locals that this was one of the only places in Oia showing premier league football, so we booked a table for food and drinks. The Thai food was insanely tasty, the service was super quick and was the cheapest bill we had in Oia, including both for the meal and all the drinks watching the football. Clinton was an amazing waiter, who couldn't do enough for us. I would highly recommend.

If you fancy a change from Greek cuisine whilst in Greece I can't recommend Paradox enough. Aris and the team are friendly and attentive and the food (courtesy of the Thai chef) is authentic and tasty. We ate in but they also deliver if you want to eat at your own apartment/villa. As a bonus they also show football in the separate bar area (screened off from the restaurant so can also be avoided if you're not interested In watching the game). Prices are also very good for Oia, in part as it is located in the bus station area of town away from that beautiful but pricey caldera view. You won't be disappointed...

If you come to Oia, I implore you to enjoy a meal at Paradox! The portion sizes are huuuge and the food was insanely tasty 🤤 We had the veggie spring rolls for starters, the red curry (wow!) and Heather had the pad thai, all bursting with flavour and we also ordered some satay veggies, easily one of the best satay sauces I've ever had. We were served by Clinton who was super friendly and attentive and made our dining experience perfect. He understood we were vegan and although a review I believe on Happy Cow said they don't have tofu...they did! We had tofu in the red curry which was more of a silken style and then in the pad thai too which was fried and had a really nice texture and flavor. Vegan or not, this place is a must, though when you can get a delicious bowl of veggies that's cheaper and healthier...why wouldn't you 😉

A perfect lunch before the sunset and an amazing dinner after it. The soups are perfect for something to get hot with the cold weather at this period of time in Greece. There are vegan and meat dishes while not choosing to dine in and have it for take away you get a 15% discount. Make sure to reserve a table between 7pm to 10 pm because it gets really busy. Available indoor sitting for vaccinated people is limited while outdoor sitting is also an option without vaccination certificate. Very careful staff and hygiene place with a value for money grade 5/5! Super worth it for a visit and browse different taste on a trip while the food takes you on a trip to Thailand along with the atmosphere and decoration.

After visiting Oia, we stayed at this place for a dinner. The rice with pineapple was served right in the half of pineapple , which is really cool. And overall taste and the portion was really nice. We also tried thai tea for the first time and it was really sweet and nice.

This is a spot for everyone who is visiting Santorini and craves for something different from Greek food. We had amazing spring rolls and wontons which the waiter explained us that are freshly rolled everyday. For our main course we got Pad Thai, Fried Rice with Chicken and Chicken Satay sauce which was served on sizzling plate. Nice ambience and atmosphere despite the fact that is on a busy road though our waiter Clinton made our night special. After our meal he treated us some watermelons and during the whole night, he was attentive and taking care of us. Surely coming back again.

Highly recommend restaurant for everyone visiting Santorini. I love the atmosphere and the environment of the place. Food not only looks wonderful, but also tastes exquisite with a great variety of Asian foods. Not to mention their amazing service.

We popped by this place for takeaways after a long day. Ambience was very nice and the staff super efficient. The fried rice was good. The green curry missed some herbs and seasoning - the taste wasn’t there. Another interesting course was minced beef cooked with beans, basil and soya sauce. While the concept was unique, was a bit too salty for our taste. Overall, while a refreshing change from Greek food when you are here for a week but not really gourmet Thai.

We all needed a change up from the Greek cuisine. Read all of the reviews on Trip Advisor and we are so glad we ate there. One of my children had french fries and spring rolls and drank Fanta . . . said it was the best meal ever. I had a dish with shrimp and the seafood is very fresh. You can also choose how spicy you would like your food. Our family of six (that like many different things) had a wonderful dinner.

My fiancé and I were there on our first day in Santorini and with it being late and very hungry we decided to go to Paradox. Food was unbelievably great and adding with it the warm and welcoming service from the staff made it even more better! Great spot if you're vegetarian as well; Food is filled with great flavor. Highly recommend it to everyone!

When we turned up to this restaurant after booking a table it quickly became apparent that one of the staff had made a mistake and given our table away. This didn’t take away from the great experience however and the staff were quick to remedy the problem. They set us up a new table in the outside area which was fine as it was still nice and warm outside. As soon as another table became they asked us if we wanted to move inside which we did. Every time staff came to the table they apologised for the issue and ended the meal by giving us a free dessert which was something we would never have ordered but it was really nice to try. The food that we did order was amazing. This is the only Asian restaurant that we visited during our time in Santorini so I can’t compare it to anything else on the island but it was really memorable and I would definitely recommend. The best Chinese / Thai food I’ve had in a long time even compared to back home in England where there are several good Asian restaurants.

This place is authentic! I had the green curry and it was delicious, my husband had the sweet and sour and it was perfect for him. The Thai Tea is nice and sweet. The prices are also reasonable. The location is also in the middle of everything. If you like Thai food don't skip this place. Enjoy!
