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.

Lovely place with great food - Edit
Arrived late for a dinner and the owner had several fresh dishes to choose from on top of the regular menu. Quality of food and atmosphere was tops. Make sure to use the wc to get the vibe in the lower level.

Traditional Greek flavors in a beautiful swtting - Edit
We stopped by this amazing spot on our last day in Athens. Do not miss this if you are in town.
Read moreThe space is beautiful, artistic and homey at the same time. The chef/owners too time to explain the menu and specials.
We opted to split Quiche Lorraine to start. This house made pie was light and packed with veggies-- flavorful with a buttery crust.
For mains, we had Moussaka and Pastissio. The portions were generous.
I had the Moussaka, and it was easily one of the best things I ate in Athens. It had a rich, layered flavor built with mushroom, potato and tomato. I wish I could have smuggled a whole pie home with me.

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.

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.
