    One of the best restaurants with an amazing view. There is a restaurant ok the roof top near the place. But we've selected this one as it has true Greek atmosphere and decorations. The food is delicious and the prices are acceptable. The Acropolis is visible from the location. I can't mention any tough minuses here. Definitely can recommend a grilled squid and Zombie cocktail.

    My favourite restaurants in Athens! Staff is pretty friendly, especially before getting upstairs, to the rooftop. Beautiful view of the city and food is really really nice! I like it so much, it's the only place I've been eating at twice. An amazing experience. You have to get there if you go to Athens. Got pork gyro the first time and the chicken gyro the second time, together with some aubergines as starter. It was delicious!

    I ordered pasta carbonara and got this, without bacon, without egg, and without any sauce. they cooked spaghetti for me and put it on a plate and sprinkled it with parmesan cheese. I do not recommend this place to anyone

    Very nice rooftop restaurant with an amazing view. Went around sunset and really enjoyed the vie there. Food and cocktails were not great. More Italian food like pizzas and pasta. They have a basic options of cocktails. Service was a bit slow due to the busy hour, took 20 mins to get the bill. Other than that, really recommend it for the view.

    Modern place in the center of hipster quarter of Athens. I didn't like it much. For me it didn't fit in. But I understand that there are people that like this kind of places and they will surely like this one. I saw a lot of younger people. Coffee was not good.

    Very beautiful rooftop restaurant, with great view, especially during sunset time. We had eggplant, salad and grilled octopus, all excellent cooked! The restaurant table setting is white and blue, very beautiful. A great place for the date or special occasions.

    The location was nice. There’s a huge range of food options (traditional Greek, Italian, burgers, etc). Also a good range of cocktails.

    The fake flowers are so kitsch. The view from the roof is lycabetus and the walls of acropolis under the 'perfume' of the kitchen's chimneys nearby!!!!! I do not know if there is a chef in the kitchen! It is a place for tourists that you go only once... The lady thought in the door was very helpful and I realized that she tried to communicate with the tourists in their language.

    Great spot with a lovely view to the Akropolis. Not a great start, with 30 mins wait to take our order. We came for drinks only, and it only took around 10 mins to get them. Tasty cocktails with fresh garnishes.

    The view from the roof top terrace is incredible and worth a visit. We watched the sunset and it was incredible. However, there's a few other bars in the street with similar views.. We went for drinks and had great service and experience, which is why we came back the same day for dinner. Unfortunately, that wasn't the same experience and we were really disappointed. There was a long wait from being seated to being acknowledged by the servers - we were just about to leave when they finally came over. Our waiter was nice and friendly. But your starters and main courses arrived at the same time. The food was "ok" at best. It was pretty flavourless and lacked texture - I think it was probably all just overcooked. It all felt a bit disorganised and not the experience we were expecting.

    Amazing find right below the Acropolis!! Amazingly fresh food- Greek salad and buratta salad unparalleled flavor and freshness. Pedro was the best server!! Views and breeze from quint covered roof top perfect! The best of Athens!!

    A fantastic restaurant with an excellent view over the city and Acropolis. The food was excellent especially the fillet steak pasta. Reasonably priced with friendly colleagues.

  • 5/5 Oliver K. 9 months ago on Google
    Wunderschöne Rooftop Bar mit tollen Cocktails & leckerem Essen, sehr freundliches Personal. Nicht zu vergessen der fantastische Rundblick über Athen inclusive der Akropolis. Für mich einer der schönsten Plätze in Plaka für einen gepflegten Sundowner.

  • 5/5 Παναγιώτης �. 8 months ago on Google
    The host was very warm and friendly and he took us up on the rooftop to see the place. We were astonished by the view to the Acropolis. Everything was phenomenal, food, drinks, desserts. Overall amazing experience.

    Nice location. Good service. Came just for coffee. Fredo espresso was fine Hot chocolate had a different than expected taste.

  • 1/5 Fanny H. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool view to the Acropolis, but not at all worth the price. Firstly, they tried to seat us at a table with broken glass on the seat and floor, even though the customers sat on the next table let us know they had alerted the staff about it a while ago. That was a sign, and we should have heeded its warning.The food took forever to arrive and did not arrive at the same time, despite the fact that two of us ordered the same meal, and we were misled about when the final meal would arrive. I ordered pasta with salmon and white sauce, which you can make at home for much less than €20 by mixing penne, salmon and sour cream. Don't bother with condiments, and don't forget to add fish bones, which I found three of just by eating half my meal. We let the server know and got to speak with the manager, who is the most unfriendly and uncompromising person I've ever had the misfortune of coming across. There was no apology or any other kind of attempt at placating the customer, and he instead constantly interrupted us and tried to put the blame on us for not letting them know about this issue earlier. Then he stormed off to check on the final meal that we specified we didn't want anymore anyway. The server went to get him again, and then the manager tried to give us a sort of reverse discount by making us pay for food that never even left the kitchen. The only saving grace was our server Teo, who was very apologetic and did his job admirably despite having an absolute nightmare for a boss. All in all, please go to the place across the street on the stairs - don't know what it's called, but they have great food and good service.

    The place is amazing in the heart of plaka street. The location is unique and amazing. The service is fast and the atmosphere is nice.

    Two young workmates saw me walking by and invited me to check the terrace seating area with the wonderful views. I had the best evening in Athens. The view is amazing, the staff is good, the music was so relaxing blending with the views and the design. I will visit this restaurant/ coffee shop again for sure!

  • 5/5 Tamari K. 2 years ago on Google
    Everything delicious! From the roof you have a nice view as well. But I have to mention that service was amazing! Everyone very friendly buy One guy called Xristos really knows how to take good care of each guest. He made sure every detail and changes we asked concerning our order were fulfilled. So we left very grateful. Would recommend!

  • 3/5 Ania M. 1 year ago on Google
    We went there because lady was standing downstairs and "trying " to find customers. We didn't think it is something there,so we go for a coffee. We was waiting quite a long time for waiter. Wasn't really busy at the restaurant, but was only one waiter. Coffee wasn't hot. But we want to get away from there. Plus it is amazing view. Really great. My lemonade was great too.

  • 5/5 Andrew G. 1 year ago on Google
    we opted for the Greek food choices which were really good but lacking in options. Most items on the menu were Italian dishes. Amazing view of the acropolis

  • 4/5 Matthew J. 4 years ago on Google
    On a lovely street on the way back down from the Acropolis - large open terrace restaurant with great views of Athens but slightly lacking on views of the Acropolis by comparison. Good food choices and wine, tucked out the way on a roof terrace

  • 4/5 joanna b. 2 years ago on Google
    The view was really nice but the quality of the coffee wasn't that good maybe because of the rush hour. The service though was really good and helpful.

  • 1/5 Ignas B. 1 year ago on Google
    Very unfriendly staff. The waiter didn't let us to the table, which we chose (better view), because we said we would like a drink, but not to eat. The most important thing, he wasn't polite when saying this. He was angry and shown he doesn't want us there. We left, so can't say anything about food or view, but from other comments I see that we made a good choise. There are other places nearby with great view and friendly staff.

  • 2/5 Kevin R. 1 year ago on Google
    Very expensive, 11 euro for one 330ml beer and a soft drink.... Roof View blocked by next door umbrellas. Didn't eat as there are better places at a better cost. Layout and tables were nice.

  • 3/5 Marg B. 1 year ago on Google
    I ordered the Grilled Squid with vegetables and lemon sauce. What I received looked lovely but tasted dreadfully of yellow mustard, not of lemon. I hate yellow mustard so had to return it. They offered to bring me lemon sauce but I refused since the mustard taste was very strong. They made me a new plate but it took so long that my companion had fully finished his meal before it arrived. The replacement had no taste other than oil and was chewy. They were out of stock for the red blend wine we preferred (Paraga) so had to pay more for a bottle of Syrah. My companion's pasta (Pappardelle with beef filet, mushrooms and sour cream) was quite nice tasting. Service was good and views were stunning.

    Great View, cool rooftop terrace. Food was good, there a change in ownership. We had alot of dishes and was happy with them.

  • 3/5 M. C. 5 years ago on Google
    Great view. Food was pretty decent. Bad service..our server didn't care at all. It was like we were interrupting him.. The only guy who was smiling and attentive..I guess was the manager..owner or something like that. Dirty glasses..it looks like they don't really take care of the place. There is indoor and outdoor seating. It looked like it's more of a night club inside.

  • 4/5 Kof K. 5 years ago on Google
    Great view of Athen's ancient sites particularly in the evening. I'd recommend this place for after dinner drinks. I docked one star for the fact that drinks had to be ordered twice. The waiters did apologize though.

  • 1/5 Akeem A. 2 years ago on Google
    This place operates under the name Sky Bar. The view was nice however everything else was terrible. As other have noted the device is the worst, you will not see the waiters for long periods of time. I didn’t get the drink I ordered however it did not show up on my final bill. It was very windy and I had to ask 3 different times for a blanket. The food was not good either, the lamb was extremely dry, the pasta had no taste at all. Save your money and eat elsewhere. On the positive the one person in my group who did receive their drink said the mango margarita was delicious

  • 5/5 Thiago S. 4 years ago on Google
    Beautiful view in the rooftop, fantastic food! Very friendly staff . Definitely a great option for lunch or dinner. In 4 people we spent €100 including drinks, food and optional service charge. Everybody ate and drank a lot! Awesome place!

  • 5/5 Nora H. 2 years ago on Google
    Great views of the Acropolis and plaka area. Came here for a cocktail after dinner and highly recommend, the martinis and wines were delicious. Managers/hosts at the door (one male and one female) were very friendly. Check it out while you are in Athens!

  • 1/5 Lorena g. 2 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    Don’t go here!! The service is really bad and the food is really expensive and not that tasty. I think we waited for 1,5 hours before we finally got our drinks/food. They gave us the same excuse over and over again that it had to do with some kind of wifi problem. The only positive thing out of all this was that we could enjoy the sun.
