Set beside the pool of Vigla Hotel and overlooking the breathtaking bay of Aegiali, Elaia - Mediterranean Cuisine introduces a new dining experience in Amorgos, where contemporary Mediterranean flavors meet Cycladic simplicity.
Perched above the breathtaking bay of Aegiali, Elaia combines elegance, panoramic sea views and a contemporary interpretation of Greek and Mediterranean gastronomy, creating a dining experience that celebrates authenticity, seasonality and togetherness.
The restaurant's redesigned outdoor area, located close to the hotel's swimming pool, creates a relaxed yet refined atmosphere where guests can dine while enjoying uninterrupted sunset views and the surrounding Cycladic landscape.
Inspired by the olive tree - a timeless symbol of life, hospitality and simplicity in Greek culture - Elaia was born from the spirit of Amorgos itself: slow living, natural beauty and meaningful connection around the table.
The restaurant's new culinary identity reimagines traditional Greek cuisine through a modern Mediterranean lens. Rooted in local ingredients and island recipes, the menu highlights refined flavors, handmade preparations and elevated comfort dishes designed for sharing.
Guests can discover signature creations such as Amorgian fava with capers and local olive oil, handmade "Grandfather's pies" with cheese and Amorgos honey, traditional slow-cooked Amorgian goat with potatoes, beef cheeks baked in clay pots, and Cycladic black squid ink pasta with seafood.
The wine list at Elaia features carefully selected Greek labels that beautifully complement the restaurant's Mediterranean cuisine. From crisp Cycladic Assyrtiko and elegant rosés to smooth, fruit-forward reds, each wine has been chosen to enhance the flavors of the menu while celebrating the richness and diversity of the Greek vineyard.
The experience is further elevated by aromatic olive oils from Amorgos, fresh seasonal produce, and homemade desserts inspired by local tradition.
With its redesigned atmosphere, natural materials, warm lighting and uninterrupted views over the Aegiali bay, Elaia offers an immersive setting where contemporary hospitality meets the timeless essence of the Cyclades.
Elaia - Mediterranean Cuisine is now open daily at Vigla Hotel in Amorgos.
