Reservations · Delivery · Takeout · Outdoor seating
Scenic, all-day cafe-bar with standout views, solid brunch and sweets, lively service; good for sunset and sports, but event nights bring minimum spends and pricier drinks.
Why it gets a B+ for overall quality
Blu Blu delivers reliable cafe-restaurant quality anchored by exceptional panoramic sunset views that justify the destination appeal for brunch and cocktails. Approachable comfort fare—avocado toast, pinsa, burgers, and pistachio desserts—executes well, though service and kitchen consistency slip during peak hours and sports events, preventing grade A territory. Fair pricing for Mykonos given the outlook makes this a solid neighborhood favorite rather than a standout dining destination.
Restaurant Summary
Perched above the Old Port, Blu Blu leans into the view with a wide windowed room that feels warm and bustling by sunset. Guests linger over freddo cappuccinos and cocktails while staff are often described as friendly and helpful. One diner put it simply: "We stayed for hours just watching the harbor." Event nights can be busier and slower, but the panoramic sunset remains the headline. The cooking is approachable and comfort-forward—think avocado toast, pinsa, burgers, and pastas—more elevated cafe fare than fine dining. Brunch and sweets pop (pistachio desserts get raves), and simple plates like Napoli pasta and the Angus burger satisfy, though a few reports note occasional misses on busy nights. Prices trend fair for Mykonos given the outlook, with the view doing a lot of the heavy lifting. Families fare well here thanks to familiar options like pasta, burgers, and crepes. Kids are likely to find something easy, and the space is roomy. Note that during sports events, a special menu or minimum spend may apply, which can limit choices; otherwise, the regular menu offers several vegetarian-friendly picks.
