First night in Athens after arriving in the airport and we ended up here. We were treated great and though the owner didn't have the best English, he told some funny stories. The waitress spoke perfect English and offered up some recommendations for food and drink and everything was great. If you find yourself in the neighborhood I highly recommend this place.

Very nice soace with warm atmosphere and very good service. They have also paid attention to their kitchen with delicious brunch menu with greek influences. Good quality of coffee. Moreover, if you want to go for a causal drink I believe this is the perfect place for the specific neighberhood. It is not cheap but not very expensive (5 euros per person).

Located close to Acropolis, an old building of the interwar period, houses our preference for the Northern-European food combined with good drinks. The menu is carefully chosen to satisfy every taste. It contains a wide variety of sausages, burgers, hot d

Firstly it was puzzling to unexpectedly find such a well-designed, new, up-market, USA style restaurant in such a steeply sloping, shabby street. My two Greek friends work in the area and had no idea it even existed. Hidden behind a row of orange trees off Syngrou Avenue, it is obviously targeted at lovers of rustic American food with loud music. I was with Greeks and they were hypercritical from the off, starting with why put such an elegant, stylish, upmarket, pricey, modern, American style eaterie in such a narrow, nondescript, steeply slopping street with zero parking and in such a dingy, unexciting part of town. Certainly, there is no passing trade. Maybe there are some big hotels nearby. If there are then the seemingly strange location would make sense. For me, it was yet another upmarket American style burger and beer eaterie, which seems de Regeur in Athens at the moment because quite a few have popped up recently. But this one is in need of serious marketing because we were alone in there for 3 hours on a Wednesday evening from 6.30 to 8.30. They told us that it gets busy at the weekends but because October is still their summer it will be even more busy in the colder winter months. The atmosphere is very moody, with dim, candlelight elegance and yet the loud American Country Rock ruins any suggestion that the place is romantic. Such music was not unpleasant to my ears but my Greek friends did not like it at all as it was a work dinner and we had to shout to each other. The food was excellent if one likes American burger style cooking, but my Greek friends were unimpressed with the simple grill fare or the size of the portions in relation to the cost, nor the moody solitude pierced by loud American Country Rock music. Secondly, it was puzzling about their 2 for the price of 1 drink. By chance, it was "Happy Hour" when we were there so they ordered two cocktails at 10 euros each thinking of course that the second one was free. They liked their cocktails, especially the one with cucumber and chili, and rated them with 5 stars but when the bill came they were not so happy that there were no free second drinks as advertised. My Greek friends did not complain; they will simply not go back again or recommend it. Maybe the 2 for 1 offer referred to beers, of which there are pages on offer, but it was not clear and so set my two pals off. The offer did not apply to the wine either, of which we had two 1/2 carafes. They did however like Angelos, the friendly and very pleasant waiter. The restaurant is very lucky to have such a young, warm, English speaking personality in what is otherwise a very somber, empty, pristine atmosphere. I will give the place a four-star rating and wish them well even though I did not comprehend what they mean by happy hour drinks. But my Greek friends gave it the thumbs down, which is a shame really because this hidden restaurant will rely on word of mouth among the locals for sure.Thank you for the time you spent to write a review.I am really sorry for the misunderstanding with your Greek friend and their cocktails but on all the tables have a flyer that says happy hour 2+1 is on draught beer per person.Unfortunately the 2 hours you were here is not such a busy time for us as Greek people usually go out for dinner after 21.00.We will be happy to have your Greek friends here another evening, maybe on a dj night set with Funk pop music or maybe o a acoustic live on a Sunday!!Thanks again for visiting us

Ok, so we have friends in Athens and this place is close to where she lives. The menus are in Greek, no English translation so if you donât understand the language, skip it. Greek salad was good, portions were fine but the grilled pork was a bit overdone. Single scoops of ice cream were way overpriced but the pavlova should not be missed. Complimentary limoncello was a nice treat but, when you order tea, you expect more than hot water...just saying...
