One the best dining experiences! Everything is fresh with the best quality of ingredients. The dishes are always an inspirational surprise of flavour. 100% recommended 👌

One of the best restaurants I have ever visited. We came from Belgrade, Serbia to have dinner with friends at Secret garden. Everything exceeded our expectations - the food was amazing, service and staff (especially Vaggelis) were superb friendly and the interior was beautiful. Beef tartare, celery soup, fresh tuna pasta, mushroom risotto, fried beans, pork gyros... I cant't decide what's best. I didn't manage to photograph caramel shortbread cake and panna cotta and they were also delicious!

It was my first visit and arguably the expectations were high, given Secret Garden’s stellar culinary reputation. And they did not fail to deliver. We arrived early on a school night and the staff was ready to tend us, offering indoor or outdoor seating options. The menu is small but almost every dish we sampled was simply fantastic, with local cuisine recipes…. taken to another level. Went for the green salad w/ pastrami, Andros cheese, cherry tomatoes, cashew nuts and ginger vinegret, the beef tartare, the goat pilaf croquettes, the pork bao buns, and pork (?) tacos. The one dish that stuck out for me was the beef tartare which was simply out of this world. Not only each bite was mouth watering, but the combination of ingredients was an oral cavity orgasm. So, if you like raw meat, you should not leave Secret Garden without trying this dish. The got pilaf croquettes were a great attempt at taking a traditional Greek wedding recipe and modernizing it with a twist. The pork bao bans are also a great choice, with excellently balanced ingredients, introducing an Asian touch. I can probably go on singing praises to this restaurant, but ultimately I think that one should simply try it out for themselves. The prices appear on the higher end of what one would expect for a Greek tapas place (μεζεδοπωλείο), but they are totally worth it based on the dishes we sampled as far as taste but also portion sizes.

Excellent! Every time better than the previous one. An experience. A journey to the taste. A must be. A recommendation.

Exceptional greek cuisine, best value for money for a casual restaurant since a long time. We went there on a late Saturday afternoon (4.30pm) and it was still packed... Slightly twisted greek recipies, decent wine list, lots of beers and tsipouro options (I liked that they propose tsipouro of different grape varieties). We will come back certainly. P.S. The place is renovated, the images we see here are outdated.

There are no words to describe how phenomenal the food is - this has become my top restaurant in Athens. This is gourmet level cooking. Reinvented Greek cuisine which makes you tastebuds sing. How this gastronomic gem remained hidden from me for so many years, I cannot understand.

Very nice Greek restaurant located in Halandri. Friendly staff and prompt services

(Translated by Google) Very nice place, very kind staff (rare in Athens), all the dishes we tried were special and delicious. Signature dish definitely the macaroni with pesto-truffle-asparagus !! Just one visit is not enough to taste the whole menu, I can't wait to go again !! (Original) Πολύ ομορφος χώρος , πολύ ευγενικό προσωπικό ( σπανίζει στην Αθήνα ), όλα τα πιάτα που δοκιμάσαμε ήταν ιδιαίτερα και νόστιμα. Signature dish σίγουρα οι μακαρούνες με πέστο-τρούφα-σπαράγγια !! Δεν φτάνει μόνο μια επίσκεψη για να γευτείς όλο το μενού, ανυπομονώ να πάω ξανά!!

Good food, very nice service . I would definitely visit again.

Exquisite tastes and very nice sevice. Definitely getting back!

All good I just didn’t like the salad

It is a lovely surprise! All dishes presents well, so was the taste! Although truffle risotto is a bit salty for me but overall very good experience! Reminder: dish portion is big for us. We ended up with takeaway.

Amazing food, great people! I DO recommend!

Every visit is a different culinary adventure. The presentation is beautiful and the flavours are incredible. The staff are excellent and do everything to make your visit special. When I land in Athens this is the first place I think of. Their romantic garden is very popular so make sure you reserve a table.

Mystikos Kipos is the absolute place to try if you are a taste enthusiast. A small menu that changes regularly, based on the philosophy of an old mezedopolion but with a modern mentality, the dishes are a crossover between classic and new creating an interesting fusion. Usually very busy during dinner hours, I suggest to book in advance or even better to visit for lunch and enjoy the quiet secret garden, which is my personal favourite hour at this restaurant.

A great place with amazing food and a variety of wines to choose from and very friendly staff (but with a little loud door banging habit). The steak was tender and great and the mushrooms were out of this world for the vegans out there. A must place to visit.

Very tasty dishes, nice non smoking environment and nice desserts too. Recommended, you will not be disappointed.Also huge portions.

(Translated by Google) Awesome place ... Very kind staff ... Nice dishes ... Good prices. (Original) Φοβερός χώρος... Πολύ ευγενικό προσωπικό... Ωραία πιάτα... Καλές τιμές.

What a nice surprise! Excellent modern greek cuisine. Everything was very fresh and tasty and the service was super friendly. Definitely recommended!

The food was exquisite, and made up for the fact that, for a place with the name "Secret Garden", the area was bare and lacking that magical hidden garden feel. A few more plants and better lighting and the dining area would match the culinary experience!

Excellent food with attention to detail, amazing garden and welcoming atmosphere! They just need to organise their service a bit!

Excellent service! Both fish and meat selection with great options. Shrimp rizoto and home made pork gyros are highly recommended. Garden is indeed secret and nicely decorated.

I will come back to this place anytime the menu is updated. A gem in the centre of Chalandri. Food is more than great and the highlights for me are the chickpea salad (basic menu) that i order every time, as well as the bao buns. Many vegetarian options and a great selection of drinks. People are very polite. Truly one of my all-time favourite spots to have a heartwarming and quite dinner.

Excellent food. Fusion Greek tastes without excess and good balance of flavours. top notch wine list choice and good service. The ambience is modern and spacious. Overall worth a visit if in Athens.

I have visited this place quite a few times over the years and it has always been a good experience. All dishes are of good quality and taste, but there is one that stands out, the "Βλαχομπριζόλα". I actually believe that there hasn't been a single time that it wasn't in the order. The atmosphere is rather bland either inside or outside. The prices are fair. I suggest a reservation being made if one chooses to come in the weekend.

Amazing food with flavours from most regions of Greece creating a menu that is always designed to be seasonal and of high quality. The staff is always very friendly and up to the task in explaining dishes in detail when asked. The only reason why I have to atmosphere a 4/5 stars is that during cold nights due to the hidden garden being an actual open garden that is being closed there is a breeze in some tables around the edges.

Interesting and delightful flavors. Fish dishes seemed to be better than the meat ones. The only downside was that the bread given to us was stale. Apart from that everything was perfect.

Almost fine dinning with competitive prices. The dishes tasty where the eye eats with. I would have better ambience!

Not very big variety of plates. The ones available are all excellent though. The sea food spaghetti the large pork fillet and the variety of special taste salads make a great selection for every taste. Will come back soon.

Unique menu with amazing food. The staff was polite and it is overall a very good experience even for a person who's weird with food like me! It was obvious they put thought in creating the menu. The sauces that came with the food always complimented it, and each one was again, unique. Overall recommended!

(Translated by Google) We went with a group of 9 people to this beautiful store and we were given the opportunity to try many different dishes. It was all delicious and I could hear moans of satisfaction all around me. Cool and spicy flavors took off our evening. I highly recommend it. (Original) Πήγαμε μια παρέα 9 ατόμων στο όμορφο αυτό μαγαζί και μας δώθηκε η δυνατότητα να δοκιμάσουμε πολλά και διαφορετικά πιάτα. Ήταν όλα νοστιμότατα και γύρω μου ακούγονταν βογγητά ικανοποίησης. Ψαγμένες και πικάντικες γεύσεις απογείωσαν την βραδιά μας. Το συνιστώ ανεπιφύλακτα.

Interesting tastes, a bit overpriced.

Nice dishes, decent prices, quite good place. A little bit more of effort and it could reach 5th star

Τέλειο μενού με αξιοπρεπείς τιμές.

Πολύ όμορφες γεύσεις, ιδιαίτερες, ευγενικό προσωπικό, εξυπηρετικό

(Translated by Google) Very nice dishes. Be sure to try the sea bass seviche and the shrimp on the coals with pepper honey! Also very good service, the children were impeccable. (Original) Πολύ ωραία πιάτα. Δοκιμάστε οπωσδήποτε το λαυράκι σεβιτσε και το θράψαλο στα κάρβουνα με πιπερόμελο! Επίσης πάρα πολύ καλό service, τα παιδιά ήταν άψογα.

Innovative Greek cuisine. The tarama with wasabi particularly recommended.

Poor quality food. Bad taste from the chef. Although the service was very nice

Amazing food with an equally amazing service. The idea is Greek/Mediterranean cuisine with a twist! And the prices are NOT twisted at all. There's a secret garden , indeed, in the back of the restaurant which adds to the uniqueness of this place. Highly recommended!

On the positive side, the service was fast and courteous and all the meat dishes were prepared exceptionally. Moreover, there is a variety of Greek beers to choose from. On the negative side, although the restaurant is called 'Secret Garden' there is no garden!! Just lots of chairs and tables packed at the back, no greenery at all. A renovation and some landscaping should be considered. Also, they added balsamic vinegar (instead of olive oil) to a traditional dish called 'dakos' and in my opinion, this is what ruined the dish. Price range: 20€ per person

Exceptional waiting. Good value for money. With little touch can become top notch

Greek food with a twist. Loved it!

Very interesting dishes with fair prices nowadays. They also offer some excellent wines by the glass. Staff is friendly and service is very quick. The decoration is simple but tasty and one doesn't feel overwhelmed by unnecessary elements.

Very meticulously prepared and tasty plates based on Hellenic ingredients. Very good service. Probably the most gourmet Greek tapas place in Athens.

Imaginative dishes ranging from good to spectacular. Great service and simple but elegant decor. What more does one need?

Enjoyed every plate I have tasted here. This was the first visit after COVID. Everyone was very carefull and even have QR barcode prints of the PDF version menu to download and browse from your device!

A nice cool yard in the center of Chalandri. Special menu with unique tastes, although in my opinion some times dishes were complicated without a reason. But still very decent.

(Translated by Google) Nice food, gourmet tavern, excellent service from all, good prices for what it offers. Beautiful place, and especially the yard. (Original) Ωραία φαγητά, τύπου γκουρμέ μεζεδοπωλείο, εξαιρετική εξυπηρέτηση από όλους,τιμές καλές για αυτό που προσφέρει. Όμορφος χώρος, και κυρίως η αυλή.

(Translated by Google) Really secret But also a magical garden! "Teased" creative Greek flavors with imagination. Flawless service, youth team with freshness, good prices. Try the thrapsalo with honey ... just unique. Well done: I had a long time to try such flavors ... Parking problem ... In CHALANDRI. I quickly wish for a ... bigger ... garden with its own parking. (Original) Πράγματι μυστικός Αλλά και μαγικός κήπος! "Πειραγμένες" δημιουργικές ελληνικές γεύσεις με φαντασία. Άψογο service, νεανική ομάδα με φρεσκάδα, καλές τιμές. Δοκιμάστε το θράψαλο με μέλι...απλά μοναδικό. Μπράβο : καιρό είχα να δοκιμάσω τέτοιες γεύσεις... Πρόβλημα το parking...Στο ΧΑΛΑΝΔΡΙ. Εύχομαι γρήγορα σε...μεγαλύτερο...κήπο με δικοί του parking.

Delicious food and good serve
