The Monte Christo was solid, pancakes too. Coffee&#39;s genuinely good. Place has a bit of an attitude and prices are higher than nearby spots, but the flavors are different enough that I get it. Mixed crowd of locals and tourists the whole time I was there. That says something.

The pesto pizza was decent&mdash;thin crust, crispy edges, exactly what I needed. Staff were kind too. Nothing fancy, but it hit the spot for a quick lunch. Maybe a bit busy around noon, but fine overall. I&#39;d come back if I&#39;m in the area.

The staff remembered us and even shut the door when they saw me shiver. Meat took a while, but they warned us first. Portions are solid.

The wood-fired pizza was really good&mdash;dough came out airy and light, not heavy at all. I had the Greca and the tartufo with mushrooms, both were solid. Place was a bit cramped though, tables close together. Fine for a quick dinner but don&#39;t expect much elbow room.

Decent burger spot near the Acropolis. Had the cheeseburger, cooked properly, juicy enough. Place has a nice vibe, not too touristy. Service was fine, no complaints. Price felt a bit steep for what it was, but you&#39;re paying for the location. Wouldn&#39;t go out of my way, but if you&#39;re in the area and need a quick bite, it does the job.

The cheese pizza and fried squid were spot on&mdash;crispy, not greasy. Had a nice glass of wine with it, worked well. Staff left us alone, no tip pressure. Good spot if you&#39;re nearby.

Came for the Michelin mention, left full. Cool warehouse vibe, lots of character. The octopus with tartar sauce and romeritos was the standout&mdash;unexpected combo but it worked. Portions are big, that 750g steak fed three of us easily. Wine list is solid too, especially if you&#39;re into natural stuff. Service was quick enough for a lunch stop.

Been coming here for years now. Gelato&rsquo;s still as good as the first time I tried it. Grabbed a seat facing the church, nice spot to just sit and take your time. Not the cheapest, but you&rsquo;re paying for the quality and the view. Consistent, that&rsquo;s why I keep coming back.

The outdoor seating is a real treat on a warm evening. The modern space has these subtle, nice Greek touches that make it feel welcoming. A great spot to relax with a view.

No. 8 of Fine Dining  in Athens

The bougatsa is the star. Had the cream version, and the texture of the filling was spot-on. The spinach pie was good, too. You can tell they make everything fresh.

The Western bacon burger was solid, really juicy. Service was friendly and quick even though it was busy. Only wish the fries were a bit hotter.

Great spot in Petralona for hanging out with friends. Big portions of classic Greek stews, super homey vibe. Some dishes came out room temp but honestly didn&#39;t care 😄

Lamb and fava were solid, proper Cretan cooking. Sitting outside under the trees was nice before sunset, but once it got dark the lighting was a bit too bright. Prices felt fair for what you got.

Service was the highlight here - friendly and quick even when the place got busy. Sat outside on the square, nice vibe. Portions were decent for the price too.

Came here on a whim and honestly the octopus was the highlight for me. Katia helped us pick a Greek wine that went perfectly with it. We also tried kebabs and gyros, solid too. Place felt pretty local, not too touristy. Would go back just for that octopus again.

Solid dal channa with chili naan. Spicy, filling, 9 euros. Rooftop view of the Acropolis at night is the real deal. Short walk from Monastiraki. Good spot if you&#39;re veggie in Athens.

The staff make this place. Our waitress actually took time to explain the traditional Greek dishes, patient and smiling the whole time. Food was filling too, even tasted good reheated the next day.

Came here for the first time last week and honestly, the outdoor seating in Kolonaki is the reason to go. Got the moussaka &mdash; proper homemade feel, not fancy, just comforting. Yeah, it&rsquo;s a bit touristy, but the food holds up. Been around since 1936 and you can tell. Would sit outside again for sure.

We came for dinner on a hot night and sat outside. The setting is really something, you feel like you&#39;re not in the city anymore. Food was mostly good, the grilled octopus was the best thing we ordered. But honestly, the portions are on the smaller side for what you pay. I left still a bit hungry, which is always a letdown. Fine for a one-off, but I wouldn&#39;t make it a regular spot.

Stumbled in because it was right across from our hotel. Sausage was good, portion decent for the price. Chicken schnitzel was fine too. Cozy spot, nothing fancy.

Stopped by for lunch, grabbed a table outside. Staff actually chilled the beer glasses beforehand - small thing but I noticed. Had the Greek salad and a lamb dish, both solid. Nothing fancy but honest food. Place was busy but not chaotic. Decent spot if you&#39;re in the area and want something straightforward.

The food was solid but service got a bit slow once the place filled up. We waited a while for our mains, but honestly the dishes made up for it. Good spot for a casual catch-up with friends 🙂

Came for the sunset, honestly the view alone is worth it. Terrace looks straight over the water. Got the moussaka and some grilled octopus &mdash; both solid, pretty generous portions. Food matched the scenery, which doesn&#39;t happen often. Place gets busy around golden hour though, so grab a spot early if you can.

Pasta was properly al dente, which is rare to find around here. Staff let us take our time even though it got busy. Parking&#39;s a pain but that&#39;s Nea Smyrni for you.

The grilled fish was fresh and nicely seasoned, not oily at all. Portions are a bit small for the price, but the quality makes up for it.

The backyard seating is a nice escape from the city noise, though smokers do use the area. House wine was good and fairly priced.

Been coming here for a while now, and the gardoumba still gets me every time. It&#39;s got that rich, savory thing going on that I haven&#39;t found elsewhere. Staff&#39;s always been decent, never pushy, just easy to talk to if you want. Place hasn&#39;t slipped, which is more than I can say for a lot of spots. Solid choice when you&#39;re in the area.

Stopped by for dinner and grabbed a glass of their house red&mdash;decent pour, paired well with the tagliatelle special. Food&#39;s solid, no complaints there. Prices though... felt a bit much for the portion size. Sat on the semi-open porch and yeah, the smoke drifts in from outside. Not ideal but I&#39;d still come back for the pasta.

Small spot, but the interior is nicer than you&#39;d expect from the outside. Staff were genuinely friendly, not the fake kind. Food was solid&mdash;good variety, even for vegetarians. I grabbed a quick lunch there and it worked well. Nothing fancy, but it does the job.
