For those seeking more flexibility, our à la carte menu offers signature dishes that showcase our kitchen's creativity and passion.

Join us at the rooftop, embrace the mystique of the Eleusinian Mysteries and savour the taste of history entwined with a touch of divine inspiration.

This was a wonderful restaurant and the food presentation was superb. Every course was delicious and the chef recommendations were thoughtful. The sommelier gave us a recommendation for wine and it was a perfectly selected wine. The view was outstanding. We have eaten at many Michelin restaurants and this restaurant far exceeded our expectations.

Wow. With each plate that came out, my husband and I were blown away. This place is incredible. The view is the very first thing to notice; perched perfectly next to Acropolis, you have an amazing sight of the monument the entire dinner. The service was impeccable. And every single dish that came out had us in awe at the presentation and taste. The combination of flavors were so perfectly played off of one another that only a Michelin star chef could create. We were dumbfounded as to how this place didn’t have a star yet - it was an absolute must to do when in Athens. Fantastic experience! Also - who knew celery ice cream was a thing or that it would taste so amazing!

The experience was a beautiful exploration of your senses. Each plate that came out built upon the last and was beautifully presented. The waiters were very knowledgeable in describing each dish and promptly took the empty plates to prep you for a new dish. Silverware was exchanged often so as to not cross contaminate flavors. Wonderful experience for my fiancés birthday in March.

The food was exceptional, the menu was brave and pairings were lovely. The kitchen worked very well and we have no comments about that. However, it’s not enough: customers should leave a restaurant satisfied. My partner and I made a reservation on January 2nd for Valentine’s Day, attracted by the dishes offered and the breathtaking view of the Acropolis advertised. Upon arrival, we were seated at a table with no view, which is understandable. A few minutes later we asked wheter we could be moved to table that emptied next to the windows with a view. We were told it was not possible. A few minutes later, a couple who arrived after us asked the same question to another waiter and managed to be moved. We pointed this out to the restaurant manager, and she said she would let us know soon if she could move us. Dinner went on, and another couple, recently arrived, was moved. At that point, the manager, embarrassed, came to tell us that we would be moved next. The problem was, we were already at the dessert. Disappointed and irritated, we waited for the final course, then got up to leave, and the manager quickly disappeared, leaving us with a waiter who wasn’t to blame. And not only that: after ruining our Valentine’s Day evening, there wasn’t even an apology. Full price, and goodbye. To stay on the Michelin Guide, good food isn’t enough. Extremely disappointed.
