9 Stunning Restaurants with Sea View in Mykonos

Mykonos, Mykonos! The island that winks at you from every travel magazine cover. And let me tell you, it lives up to the hype (most of the time). But listen, sushi-loving friend (because, let’s be honest, who isn’t?), while Mykonos might have some fancy fusion joints, this isn’t your average beach town.

We’re talking Greek food nirvana in Mykonos, and I’m about to tell you where to find the best restaurants in Mykonos with a view, but not just an average view, a fantastic and romantic sea view!

Imagine yourself with wind-tousled hair and a smile wider than the Aegean Sea, sitting on a terrace overlooking turquoise waters. In your hand? A plate piled high with melt-in-your-mouth moussaka, drizzled with enough olive oil to make your tastebuds do a Greek dance (also called Sirtaki or syrtaki).

That’s the Mykonos magic I’m talking about, darling! Because here’s the thing: Greece does seafood like nobody’s business. The fish practically jumps from the ocean straight onto the grill, and the local ingredients are bursting with sunshine flavor.

So why settle for California rolls or Italian pasta when you can have sun-kissed octopus carpaccio or saganaki that’ll set your tastebuds on fire (in a good way, of course)?

Trust me, ditch the Asian or Italian dreams and embrace the Greek foodie in you. You won’t regret it! (Unless you have a severe aversion to feta cheese, in which case, maybe pack some emergency granola bars.)

Now, let’s get to the good stuff: the restaurants in Mykonos with sea views!

Okay, my lovely, anxious traveler, I know you’re practically itching to get to Mykonos like a puppy who just spotted a squirrel across the street. You’re already picturing yourself sipping cocktails on the beach, snapping Insta-worthy pics, and showing everyone back home how fabulous you are (don’t worry, they already know).

Trust me, I get it. I had the same travel fever before I went. But hold your horses (and your selfie stick) because I’m not here to show you the generic tourist traps.

I’m on a mission to ensure you have the most epic Mykonos experience ever, including stuffing your face with delicious Greek food in the most breathtaking settings. Because let’s be honest, what’s the point of being on an island if you can’t gaze at the sparkling Aegean Sea every chance you get?

You’ll be on a terrace overlooking the turquoise water, with fluffy white clouds drifting by and the scent of fresh seafood filling the air. You’ll take a bite of the most amazing moussaka, and suddenly, you’ll be transported to a Greek goddess fantasy. (Okay, maybe not a goddess, but at least a super-stylish and deliciously-satisfied traveler).

That’s the kind of experience I’m talking about, and I’ve done all the research to make it happen. So, buckle up, my super-organized traveler (by the way, did you already get my free guide to become a super-organized traveler like me to avoid travel anxiety?).

Get ready to discover the best restaurants with sea views in Mykonos that will have you saying “Opa!” (and maybe even “OMG!”).

Just remember to pack your appetite (and your swimsuit, because you might just want to take a dip after all that fantastic food).

6. Katerina’s Restaurant & Cocktail Bar:

Located in the famous Mykonos Little Venice, Katerina’s Restaurant & Cocktail Bar is one of the bars right on the waterfront; you can enter only from the back entrance (or you can try to swim till there and jump up to the balcony). This is another place where you can stop any day and night (almost anytime).

You can stop here for a coffee in the morning or maybe for dinner after a romantic sunset boat trip. They have a little balcony with only three tables on the sea (you have to book it in advance if you want to sit there obviously) with a spectacular view. To your left, you will see the famous windmill of Mykonos and, to the right, a beautiful sunset.

They prepare many local dishes and also some pasta or rice with fish. Cocktails are delicious, and a DJ is set to dance all night.

8. Nikolas Taverna:

Nikolas Taverna is a lovely family-run taverna on the beach that opened in 1967, and it is precisely the kind of taverna on the beach where everyone should eat while exploring Greece.

This taverna is part of my article on where to eat on a budget in Mykonos, so if you are looking to save some money while on the island, you should check it out. Nikolas Taverna is a little unmissable gem in Mykonos to try, love, and tell everybody about it.

9. Baboulas Ouzeri:

I found this place just by strolling around the Old Harbour, looking for some Greek souvenirs to take home. We left our car in the car park at the north end of the main town, and as soon as I saw this place, I went to one of the waiters to book a table. Of course, I asked to get one of the tables on the edge, near the sea, to admire the town and the marvelous sunset.

Oh, guys, it was so romantic, and the food was excellent, with simple local dishes to love at every bite; the service was very attentive, and prices were a bit cheaper than the restaurant in the middle of the main town. If I ever return to Mykonos, I will return to this place for dinner.

Address: Μύκονος 846 00, Greece. On the north edge of the Old Harbour.

So, pack your appetite for adventure (and an extra-large pair of stretchy pants) because, with this roadmap to Mykonos’s most delicious sea views restaurants, your Greek getaway is guaranteed to be even more magical than you ever imagined.
