Fabulous all round - Edit
This is a delightful oasis for an evening meal. The vegan Miyazaki was lovely, as was the spanakopita. The burger was enormous! They use only vegan wine too and the rose was frankly the best I had tasted. Upstairs is a lovely experience and the place has a great decor including old books along one wall. It’s a 10 minute walk from the Acropolis Museum past some interesting shops. The people are wonderful too.

Good Not Great - Edit
Overall disappointed in the flavor and lack of variety in the dishes.
Read moreHad the stuffed peppers with rice and zucchini fritters. Both dishes were bland and lacked flavor. The zucchini fritters were not crispy and seemed to be undercooked.
There were also no sides or sauces with the dishes, other than a small portion of yogurt.

Great wine and homemade cashew cheese! - Edit
Great atmosphere and service! We had a mushroom pie, and tomato & homemade cashew cheese on bread. Especially the latter was very very good. Also, the wine is great. We had the rose and muscat white wine, and would recommend to try both.

Found it hard to understand the hype - Edit
The pie we got was microwaved and soft, not crispy as you’d expect. Coffee was ok same with the quiche. Not a place I’d go back to

Tasty vegan food, if a bit pricey. - Edit
We tried the vegan quiche and spinach pie. The quiche was good, the pie was delicious.
Read moreThe staff is friendly and the place is lovely.
The only thing is the price is a bit higher than we'd like for the size of the portions.
Still, tasty vegan food is always welcomed.

The vegetable pies are great! But everything we had was very good. The owner is very, very friendly and fluently speaks English. Mother is a perfect name for this place, it feels like family.

Food was nothing special but overpriced - Edit
We had breakfast there. The food was just OK. Nothing special or stellar and neither very abundant. For that - and the relatively remote location - it was certainly overpriced. (We had cheaper and better dinner elsewhere for less.) We would not go there again.

Calm spot - Edit
The restaurant was quite calm when I stopped in for dinner which was a welcome reprieve from the busy Athens streets. There were two pies available, I picked the pumpkin as it wasn't meant to have dill while the spinach pie did. Unfortunately there was dill added to the pie which was a major bummer for me, it's a strong flavor and overpowered it so I didn't enjoy the pie. I also had a side of the fava which was basic but nice. Cute shop, kind service, lots of the food looked great I just didn't choose well for myself so the meal was so so.
