MIA’s story started from a strong memory that became a welcoming place to pull up a chair, sit back and enjoy the Caldera unfold before your eyes. At MIA create culinary moments that fuse tradition with contemporary concepts, and turn into experiences that nourish the soul. All these will make you come back time and again, here at the restaurant, to relive it all, because when MIA’s experience begins, it never ends.
Inspired by the delicious recipes of her grandmother, a native of Santorini, Sellia Georges chose an elegant Cycladic dwelling with a spectacular view, in the heart of Oia village in Santorini, to house the holistic and indulging experience that is MIA’s restaurant, meant for those who always expect more. In this welcoming house, a destination of enchanting gastronomy for friends and passersby alike, overlooking the world’s most beautiful sunset, the Greek culinary tradition meets the values of contemporary cuisine, leading to the awakening of the senses. When MIA’s experience begins, it never ends. MIA’s starting point was Sellia’s expertise as a third-generation restaurateur from Chicago. In the beginning, MIA’s core team was comprised of herself and her father, Chris Georges, who embraced and fully supported her vision. Since then, the team has grown to include valuable members who give their fullest attention to the creation of MIA’s experience on a daily basis.
