Lovely aura, truly traditional place to eat in the center of the city. Truly recommend
Old Ithaki
While at a very touristic area, the quality is very good as well as the location
Karyatis Restaurant Plaka - Traditional Greek Restaurant Plaka Athens.
Another super traditional and very locally kept place. Near the city center. Authentic food and atmosphere
Το Κονάκι
Atmosphere amazing, traditional with a kick of island vibe. Love music and very good food. Recommend calling before visiting especially evenings and nights
Μυλόλιθος μουσικό μεζεδοπωλείο
Gorgeous roof top, amazing view. A bit on the pricier side but totally worth it
The Zillers Roof Garden
Lovely place, in central Athens and has top quality of fish dishes.
Η Παλιά Ταβέρνα του Ψαρρά
A great choice for Mediterranean food with a modern twist. In a themed restaurant that time travels each guest. Totally recommend

A for Athens
Generally for drinks not so busy but for dinner must have reservation

Gorgeous place to have coffee and unwind. Truly recommend also in the center of Athens
Usurum Brunch & Cocktails

A modern but very chill café where you can take a break or continue your work unbothered and in a very aestetic place

A Riviera in the city center of Athens. In a great area, with great service and atmosphere
