Incredible food. Portions were small but extremely well put together and packed with flavor. The waitress was attentive and very helpful as well as any of the other staff I interacted with. This is a must go for anyone visiting.

The servers were excellent and the food/wine was equally fine. We especially enjoyed the pasta and lamb delicious. Definitely a superb destination to enjoy our initial dining experience in Athens.

Unfortunately the air-conditioning didnt have enough power to cool the whole place so they had to open the windows. We had to eat at a temperature near 32C. We went for degustation menu. The wine paring setted list was poor but people at the service were happy to help us combine the menu with the wines. They have a big list of wines to choose. The fish dishes were absolutely magnificent but the meet not as much, nice quality of meat and cooked at the desired temperature though. The sweet was from another planet. Maybe the best plate. Overall a nice restaurant but i wont visit it again in the near future, especially in summer.

It must have been training night. The previous evening we dined at Delta. Possibly, best meal in many years. Okio - table was never cleared between courses. We were never asked if we would like more water or wine (even though 3/4 are light drinkers). At the end, I had to find someone to pay the bill. The 40Euro deposit also was returned but after I paid. I am sure they mean well and hopefully they just had a very bad Monday night. Regardless- would never go back. The baklava I bought on the street was last night’s highlight for us.

Wasn’t aware I’d be eating on a busy street corner next to a mounted menu where passerby’s would stop to read it smoking and sweating and chatting and bumping it one. Chairs were uncomfortable and sidewalk was slanted making me feel slightly off balance the whole time. Service was efficient but not personable. Food was wonderful and meal was well paced. Wine pairings were ok, but pours were small for 50 euros for 4 glasses of wine over 9 courses. Wine was often poured after a course was completed. For example, when we transitioned to red meat we finished our first red meat course before we were poured our first red wine glass. Very sparse explanations of courses and none for the wines. Having made this reservations months in advance I would have hoped for a bit more personalized experience. Food was again delicious and complex in flavors.

The most amazing food I had in Athens! I had chosen another restaurant off the Michelin Guide but decided to go to this one for the reviews. We ordered everything on the menu except the octopus and every dish was phenomenal. All the flavours just hit you right in the taste buds. Dine here if you're ever in Athens.
