4.8 / 5.0(4,670 reviews)
Easily a five star review. Great service from the proprietor himself and his staff. Great food. Great ambience. And very reasonably priced. Nice area too (Psyrri). We had the chicken souvlaki and moussaka - standard Greek dishes, but done really well here. Best food I’ve had in Greece! One of the owners Andres was in the restaurant, we spoke to him for a bit. He was very kind, you can tell he puts a lot of love into the service and quality of the food. I highly recommend to visit this restaurant when in Athens. Plus, they end your experience with a special dessert! A spongy moist cake soaked in orange and a local spirit, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. First meal in greece and not dissapointed. Lovely friendly staff, really tasty food, big portions. I even got a free dessert, super sweet of them! Also Paros the waitor is super cute! 🫢

Great food served with charming hospitality. We had Greek salad which was full of fresh ingredients. Lamb roast was amazing - melted like butter in your mouth and was full of warm succulent flavours. Moussaka was the best we have ever had. Andreas was the perfect host and the restaurant has great ambience.

It was a wonderful experience. The food and service were amazing. We ordered a beef burger, chicken breast with mustard cream, and a Greek salad. We also had a complimentary dessert, which was delicious. Definitely recommend!
