Came in for lunch after spotting the many vegetarian options on the menu, which are quite rare to find in this area. Pleasantly surprised by the hidden gem we stumbled upon.

The restaurant is spacious and much larger than the exterior would have you expect, boasting two stories, outdoor seating, and a series of wall-spanning windows on the lower and upper floors. The view is breathtaking and the atmosphere formal - this is a restaurant that plays to its strengths and takes itself seriously.

The Greek salad we ordered as a starter was generous, the fried haloumi presented with aplomb, and the fried feta drizzled in honey in particular was a fantastic taste combination we hadn't experienced before.

As mains we ordered chicken souvlaki, mushroom risotto, rabbit in mustard sauce, and vegetarian moussaka at the recommendation of the waiter. The mushroom risotto was pleasant, although the Parmesan was a little overpowered by the truffle oil. The chicken souvlaki was breast - not particularly tender - but seasoned well with a side of salad and chips; a good choice for a lighter, healthier option. The rabbit wasn't too good but wasn't terrible. The main flavour was the sauce, and it was difficult to pull apart... an interesting meal, but I'd skip it if ordering again. The vegetarian moussaka was the highlght of To Patriko Mas. It was light and airy, with a subtle, delicate tomato sauce. The serving was very generous and came in an earthenware dish. Some of the best moussaka we've ever had.

Service was relaxed and at times somewhat sluggish, and we had some difficulty gaining the attention of a waiter at times. Despite the initial difficulty, however, the food was brought out promptly and served piping hot.

This is not a budget eatery, but the price is well worth the experience. One of the highlights of our stay in Delphi.
