“ Food: we chose the Menu for 2 people, but this is really enough for four, I recommend that 2 persons to choose the first menu for one person. The food was delicious, actually everything, from tzatziki to chicken, moussaka, caesar salad, dessert. It is a wonderful location with a very cool concept. The location looks good, the people are welcoming and helpful. Thanks to the guy who helped us with a charger. A location where I would love to return. ”
“ Friendly staff and very fast service. We shared several traditional dishes (tzatziki, saganaki, fried calamari, Greek salad, moussaka), all delicious. Nice location near the Plaka, fair prices, and traditional Greek music in the background. ”
“ This was my favorite restaurant we tried in Greece! It was so good we came back for our last night. It's a great place to bring a group of people given the style is a bunch of shared plates you can try so many things. Our waiter, Konstadinos, was amazing. He helped us both times and was so friendly and gave good advice on the food. He even spoke to us in a few Arabic words when he learned we were Egyptian! I'm definitely coming back on my next trip! ”
“ Highly recommend when in Athens. The sharing plates are an excellent value at 20 Euros pp: two mains (not small at all), two salads, two drinks (NA or alcohol), appetizer, water and two desserts!) you choose what you want. Staff was welcoming. Just go before 7:30 to assure a table. Spots above a street so fun to people watch. Indoor and outdoor dining. And yes, apparently a Rick Steves recommendation. ”
“ Honestly the best food I have eaten in Greece on my third time of visiting. Outstanding value for money. There was a small wait for a table but was completely worth it. Everything was delicious but a particular shout out to the deep fried goat cheese with fig jam and the sausages in tomato sauce. Friendly and good service too. Only slight disappointment was the wine, we tried a bottle of the retsina wine for €6 and maybe I was asking too much for a wine that cheap but I wish I didn’t order it ”
“ Excellent Greek taverna style lunch after visiting the acropolis museum. Food comes quickly and is exactly what you’d expect from the classic dishes. There’s a nice outdoor patio area and a kids playground right around the corner. ”
“ Delicious food. Tastes like home-cooked Greek food. We got Greek salad, fried goat cheese, lemon beef and fried zucchini. All outstanding. It’s a lovely place on an ancient street in the heart of Athens. Hard to go wrong. There’s a slight wait but moves quick. We went for lunch and waited only about 20 mins. Dinner is a bit busier we’re told. The prices are so low too for the location. And it’s family style. Don’t think you can go wrong. Make this place a priority. ”
“ Rick Steve’s recommended this restaurant. Parties of 4 are quicker to seat. They have limited tables for parties of 2 and won’t seat you at tables of 4, which is fair considering how busy they are. For us, our party of 6 had to wait around 50 minutes for a table. Well worth it! Our server had a sour face and wasn’t very friendly. However, we really enjoyed the food and atmosphere! We did the meal for six. Massive portion sizes! The shrimp were dry so maybe skip those, but all else was great! Definitely the best food we had whilst in Athens! ”
