Lorda — Restaurant in Athens

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I appreciate the explanation, though I couldn’t help but notice that the grill seemed to work perfectly fine for the other customers around me. Unfortunately, the slow service here has been a consistent issue, but this time it was taken to another level waiting more than 30 minutes for souvlaki skewers is a bit much. And even if there really was a grill problem (which, from what I saw, there wasn’t), a simple heads-up would have gone a long way instead of just letting me sit and wait without any update. There were plenty of ways to handle the situation, but none of them happened. On the positive side, thanks to the cashier for refunding me, and thanks again for replying here. Hopefully...

I visited the establishment on a Saturday evening. The food was very good, and the chicken kalamaki was juicy and well prepared. I also ordered a cola. The sauce they give you is also great when combined with the chicken. They have other good options of vegetarian souvlaki with haloumi. The location is great, being in the heart of exarcheia, and open until late most the time. The staff is friendly and can help you out with the options if you aren’t sure of what to get. The atmosphere is great with low beat music and a chilly space that is air conditioned during these hot days. Overall I would definitely, recommend and say it’s one of the best in the area. I believe one should definitely pay a visit if...

I walked around Athens for ten hours trying all the street food I could try. Lórda stood out as my favorite. The grilled halloumi is to die for!! The man at the counter was friendly, kind, and helpful. As a visitor and non-native Greek speaker, I was grateful for his good English. The food was prepared fresh and arrived quickly. Price was super reasonable and I was surprised when the order came up that it also included fried potatoes and pita. Atmosphere rocked with good music and friendly vibes. If you’re in Athens, whether a local or visitor, don’t miss a chance...
