I had a really bad experience at this restaurant. We went there on a Saturday evening and ordered a salad, a main dish, and three smaller dishes along with two beers. But things went downhill from there. We waited for an hour and a half, and all they brought to our table was one of the smaller dishes. When I asked the waiter about the delay, they didn't bother to come back with an explanation.
Feeling frustrated, we decided to leave and asked to talk to the owner. But, the owner was nowhere to be found. I was shocked when I got the bill – they had charged us 13 euros for that one tiny smaller dish that we actually received. Leaving the place, I discussed with my company where I was told that the price was a lot lower. Getting back, I questioned the price, and only then did they tell me it should have been way cheaper., and they even messed up and charged the beers previously. Finally, I got refunded the extra money they had charged us.
This whole experience was really disappointing. The restaurant messed up the service, messed up the prices, and seemed like they didn't care about making things right. It's frustrating to see such a lack of organization and fairness.
I would not recommend the place, especially as there are decent places around caring for the customers...
Read moreFantastic food in a crowded, lively atmosphere. Yes, the service is slow, but this place is crowded for a reason—great food at reasonable prices (€10-15 per person and you will leave FULL). Best in groups of 3+ but come before 22:00 on weeknights and before 20:00 on weekends or you will wait for a table and a very long time for food. English is spoken by some waiters. 🗣️ Menu is Greek only but easy to translate with Google.
MUST order: ✅🍄Grilled Mushroom w Balsamic (best mushroom dish in Athens) ✅sausages (comes with 5) ✅honey chicken 🍯in a pot (VERY sweet, but you should dip everyone on the table in this sauce) ✅potatoes (order with feta sauce on the side so the 🍟 stay warm) ✅ lefko (white) house wine (€2.8 for 1/4 liter)
♿️ One step to enter. They also offer outdoor seating. VERY loud volume. And lighting is okay (better in the back, but that is the loudest area).
🥬 They offer some vegetarian dishes (the grilled mushroom is...
