Overall, the price-to-portion and taste ratio is great. I didn’t give 5 stars mainly due to inconsistency, some dishes were excellent, while others fell a bit short. The fried baby shrimp, for instance, had an odd taste. It might’ve been the spices they used, but it just didn’t work for me, and I wouldn’t order it again.
On the other hand, the gavros (fried small fish) was delicious, crispy, flavorful, and not overly oily, which is often a risk with this dish. The cuttlefish risotto stood out with its unique texture and bold taste. We really enjoyed it, though I can imagine it might be a bit too intense for some palates. The salad was fresh, well-portioned, and a good complement to the rest of the meal.
We also had the house white wine, which paired nicely with the seafood dishes.
Service was a bit on the slow side, and a few items were missing until we reminded the staff, but nothing that disrupted the overall dining experience. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the interior decor added to the cozy and...
Read moreWe have visited this restaurant many times but the last time I got so disappointed by the service that I will never go there again. We had reserved a table for 11 people for 19:30. Unfortunately we came 20 minutes too late what usually never happens to me.

The restaurant was full of smoke and I told him that I had ordered a table in the non smoking area. He replied that he changed that yesterday and there is no non smoking area anymore. If I would have spoken in the morning with him on the phone he would have told me that. Unfortunately I have spoken with sombody else. I got so angry by his ironic answers that I called all my friends to go somewhere else. We all had little children with us and a family from abroad. I will not go...
Read moreMade a phonecall to book a table. Arrived at the advised time and there were no tables available. To my surprise the rude gentelman advised that they do not take reservations and that i am mistaken. They did not apologise for any form of misunderstanding and insisted that i was wrong to presume that i made a reservation by calling, confirming table availability and arriving at the designated time. As a local living in the neighbourhood, i can confirm that this is the most unprofessional attitude i have ever been in the receiving end of. This place doesn’t represent the local and friendly community of the Chalandri restaurants. Will never attempt to visit and i advise everyone not to tolerate...
