Good honest food cooked well. We didn’t have time for dessert or to try lots of things as we were going out afterwards. But our 2 cannelloni and 2 side salads were great with a side of the cheese fritta’s. Can’t wait to go back one day and try more. The bakery downstairs is outstanding btw x

The food was delicious, just a bit too much ice in my Virgin Strawberry Mojito so I felt I just had a strawberry flavoured water in the end and it was really hard to reach the actually drink with the cardboard straw... Other than that, it was really good, pleasant service, and I even had a little cake for my birthday as we were too full to order a dessert, which was a nice surprise!

About the restaurant

We want to raise awareness of the vast network of local producers and winemakers whose lives and livelihoods revolve around the treasures of the table, so we’ve thrown out our regular menu to pay homage to the culinary treasures that exist throughout Greece.
The sharing of food and conversation is a human ritual as old as time.
Meze is the ultimate expression of this passion. In the old times in Greece, the offer of numerous small selected dishes was a sign of generous hospitality. We hope you will enjoy ours…
