“ We arrived in Athens and went for a stroll. We found this restaurant off the beaten path in Plaka (is that possible?). It is located on a small quiet square and has more seating outdoors under cover than inside. It is a great setting. Good food, good service and good value. Highly recommended! ”
“ Nice food and atmosphere. I had homemade dolma and that just reminded me of my childhood dolma my mom was making. ”
“ This was a delicious experience that I enjoyed thoroughly. The food is curated to be some of the most delicious Greek food I have ever had. Amazing high quality tzatziki, fresh vegetables and the grilled lamb was good. Everything was amazing, but one little thing that did happen was the card machine broke, and our waiter asked if we were okay to pay with cash, and we agreed. But then it took 20 minutes to get us drinks. I completely understand that, this was an issue that they had no control over, and due to the increase in customers due to summer season, maybe the restaurant was understaffed as they may have been resolving the issue. In the end they did provide us with complimentary dessert, and the machine was working again! All in all, amazing restraint, good service, and classic Greek architecture all around you. I was in awe. Amazing, amazing place. ”
“ Outstanding quality regards to the food. The Beef stew and lamb chops was delicious and will you not be disappointed. Don't miss it..... ”
“ Excellent dinner in a traditional greek restaurant. We had "greek" salad, grilled chicken breast and pork souvlaki. Food was superb, as well as the house wine (half liter of rosé). We did not take dessert because we were totally full :) Staff was very friendly and helpful. Recommend to everyone :) ”
