Really unfortunate management in a very pretty location. We tried to go for cocktails and a view of the Acropolis. The view is stunning. Maybe we won as we were never actually served anything, so we got the best bit and left. The lighting was like police interrogation spotlights.

We also had a shrimp appetizer that was underwhelming. The only highlight of the experience was the amazing view of the Parthenon. Unfortunately for the Above bar, there are many options with equally spectacular views and much, much...
