(Translated by Google) Not many spices are to my liking. Very intense flavors. Space says nothing. Service very kind. Last observation, I like a shop when it offers sweet dessert. This shop doesn't. (Original) Δεν είναι στα γούστα μου τα πολλά μπαχαρικά. Πολύ έντονες γεύσεις. Ο χώρος δεν λέει τίποτα. Το service πολύ ευγενικό. Τελευταία παρατήρηση, μου αρέσει ένα μαγαζί όταν προσφέρει επιδόρπιο γλυκό. Αυτό το μαγαζί δεν το κάνει.

I’d like to start by saying I typically don’t write reviews, although I felt so strongly with my passion for this meal. I’ve travelled to Greece multiple times and have visited dozens of islands and top restaurants. This was undoubtedly the best meal I’ve experienced in Greece. The combination of flavors and well put together menu items is unmatched. As well with the adorable and casual style of the restaurant all flow perfectly and create my ideal restaurant.

(Translated by Google) Wonderful! Flawless service, excellent quality, simple but harmoniously combined flavors. Beautiful place, neat and clean. The prices correspond to what we tried. Worth! (Original) Θαυμάσιο! Άψογη εξυπηρέτηση, άριστη ποιότητα,γεύσεις απλές αλλά αρμονικά συνδυασμένες. Όμορφος χώρος, προσεγμένος και καθαρός. Οι τιμές ανταποκρίνονται σε ότι δοκιμάσαμε. Αξίζει!

Amazing food, really cozy place, lovely atmosphere and staff extremely friendly!

(Translated by Google) Very nice food and tsipouro, but loses by the staff. The number of times we went was not very polite or welcoming (Original) Πολύ ωραίο φαγητό και τσίπουρο, αλλά χάνει από το προσωπικό. Οσες φορές πήγαμε δεν ήταν ιδιαίτερα ευγενικό ή φιλόξενο

We have been travelling all over Europe for 2 months and this is honestly the best food we have eaten anywhere. It is unpretentious and just amazing - the flavours, the textures and obviously good ingredients. And it is very well priced as well. We had the dolmades, egg plant risotto, pork pasta, pork cheeks and seared tuna - all delicious. Each dish was served one after the other, tapas style, so everyone is expected to share. Highly recommend this place.

Cozy place. Very tasty food. Excellent service. Fair prices.

Discrimination 100%, when a person sits down at your table after he has asked if the table is reserved and you say no, you may sit...it is at least infuriating and impolite to ask him to leave just because another two person's walked in with no reservation too just because they would order more.... Nice to know that during holiday season you are a restaurant that discriminates and lie in to the faces of its clients by saying oh i am sorry, i made a mistake this is reserved after all... and then see that you give the table to those same 2 people....you should be ashamed.... worst restaurant ever... He never said wait... Well,I guess this is no surprise that you continue to lie your teeth out...... You could at least apologise instead of saying end of story... Maybe if you had manners this would have never happened in the first place...

Oh god first of all the atmosphere is so chill like old times vintage place kinda looks italian-greekish also the position of this resturant is great.The food is so interesting, its not exactly tge mist traditional basic greek food, it is greek but to me its like mixed cuisines but its amazing, every single thing on the menu is delicious.Prices are good too.Also the waiters are so welcoming and polite.If u want to go somewhere where its not busy and you wont feel seen but comfy and open minded go here, its promising

We unsuccessfully tried to get into another nearby restaurant, and luckily found a table at The Heavy Melon. It's a small, charming room, with delicious and imaginative food and excellent service. Highly recommended.

(Translated by Google) Everything was great! Perfect service, perfect food, perfect prices! (Original) Όλα ήταν εξαιρετικά! Τέλεια εξυπηρέτηση, τέλειο φαγητό, τέλειες τιμές!

(Translated by Google) frustrating experience very expensive for the quality it offers, the flavors are too confusing, there is nothing simple in the list, there is generally a sophistication that has nothing to do with the place, which has caused us a great deal the music is also irritating: ( (Original) απογοητευτική εμπειρία πολύ ακριβό για την ποιότητα που προσφέρει, οι γεύσεις υπερβολικά μπερδεμένες, στον κατάλογο δεν υπάρχει τίποτε απλό σαν επιλογή, γενικά κυριαρχεί μια επιτήδευση που ουδεμία σχέση έχει με τον χώρο, που μας προξένησε μεγάλη σαστιμάρα η μουσική εκνευριστική επίσης : (

Truly the best place we ate in Thessaloniki. A cozy, chill space on a small, charming local street. The food was absolutely excellent, inventive, fresh - the chef is an artist. If this restaurant was in LA or NYC you’d be paying three times as much for it with lines out the door. Skip the tourist traps in Ladadiki and along the waterfront and find your way to this gem of a spot.

Wow! Excellent dishes with a very friendly staff. Ttadition and experimentation meet each other under the service of a very friendly staff and with very reasonable prices. Definitely worth visiting again and again.

(Translated by Google) The best I've tried so far in Thessaloniki. A bit of an "alternative" place for my tastes, though its flavors have compensated me with the above. Prices very reasonable. The tuna (tuna steak, I would say) would be medium and not well done, but I didn't ask for it so the mistake was mine. It makes sense in Greece to do so as the majority would complain about "blood" in the fish. Will definitely visit it again on my next trip. (Original) Ότι καλύτερο έχω δοκιμάσει ως τώρα στη Θεσσαλονίκη. Λίγο " εναλλακτικός" χώρος για τα γούστα μου, παρόλα αυτά οι γεύσεις του με αποζημίωσαν κ με το παραπάνω. Τιμές πολύ λογικές. Ο τόνος ( τηγανιά τόνου, - tuna steak θα το έλεγα) θα ήθελα να είναι medium και όχι well done, αλλά δε το ζήτησα έτσι οπότε το λάθος ήταν δικό μου. Λογικό στην Ελλάδα να το φτιάχνουν έτσι μιας κ η πλειοψηφία θα παραπονιόταν για " αίμα" στο ψάρι. Σίγουρα θα το επισκεφθώ και πάλι στο επόμενο ταξίδι μου.

hidden local restaurant with warm and cozy atmosphere. The food was extremely good with the flavor of the sea. The staff was really kind. I could come here every day:))

the food is so so good! there are many options for everyone! a lot of vegetarian options and gluten-free also!!!!!!!!!! +the staff(anna) is great. very recommended!

Great food, reasonable prices and friendly staff. The menu includes some vegetarian options and interesting beer options. Definitely recommend.

(Translated by Google) Very nice food at good prices and portions. It is worth trying one of his cheeses as well as the mash with puree that I have never tasted like before. Due to the limited space it is best to book a table. (Original) Πολύ ωραίο φαγητό σε καλές τιμές και μερίδες. Αξίζει να δοκιμάσει κανείς κάποιο από τα τυριά του καθώς και το κότσι με πουρέ που όμοιό του δεν έχω ξαναφάει. Λόγω του περιορισμένου του χώρου καλύτερα κλείστε τραπέζι.

(Translated by Google) I had a long time eating so many wonderful flavors ..... !!!! (Original) Είχα πολύ καιρό να φάω τόσο υπέροχες γεύσεις.....!!!!

What a good surprise! Small and and excellent restaurant. Good service and delicious dishes. Everything is fresh and the price is very good. Highly recommend.

Food is good. Not exceptional. A good choice but not a must go place. Service was polite. Clean and cozy. Menu is limited compared to similar places.

Amazing food. Inexpensive. Friendly staff. And natural wine!

Amazingly tasting food ! Absolutely a must here in Thessaloniki - attentive and friendly service 👌 Enjoyed my stay tremendously and appreciated this restaurant a lot

Chilled hip place in central but quiet location. Honest prices, great quality food, well presented. We had stuffed squid which was a tiny bit on the chewy side. it came with the sweet sauce (not my favourite but it depends on what you like). Octopus meatballs were deliscious, same as kebab- super fresh and flavoursome.

Average food, high prices. They try to have special plates, not common,but the result is not good. Prices are high and portions small. Although service is good

The Heavy Melon (Το βαρύ πεπόνι) is in my opinion Thessaloniki’s best restaurant. It has a cozy, cool and laidback atmosphere; the waiters and chefs are welcoming and helpful; and the food is excellent. The dishes are based on traditional Greek types and ingredients, but with creative, unexpected, and modern twists. The wine list is small but, the selection of Greek wines (and local beers) is carefully curated. Prices are also reasonable. Five out of five stars

Very good food for reasonable money. We have ordered 2 starters and 2 main courses. It was really very good. We recommend this place with all our hearts.

Most delicious food we ate in our whole Greece trip. Very good price also. Recommend!

It’s a nice place with Greek and mediterranen food. Cozy living room atmosphere and nice music. The food is good. Pancetta was a bit dry for my taste, gnocchi and kebab tasty. Waiting takes too long in my opinion.

(Translated by Google) Very nice shop with great food (Original) Πολύ ωραίο μαγαζάκι με τέλειο φαγητό

The service was great! We ordered like 4 different appetizers and loved them all. The zucchini balls were awesome and I had this vegetarian pepper tomato cheese dip on bread it was phenomenal. The i had the first cheese option deepfried in a flaky breading with honey.... so good. Honestly everything i imagine is gonna be good.

Just finished our meal here and I have to say this place is amazing. The food is very very good, perfect service. If you visit Thessaloniki, this place is a must for food lovers.

We visited the Heavy Melon almost 5 years ago at our last visit to Thessaloniki, as we were taken there by our wonderful tour guide Eleni. It was amazing the food and the service. So memorable that we had to come back again on this visit to Thessaloniki. We booked a table for six and the food most definitely did not disappoint. Delicious and unusual flavours. The food most definitely deserves five stars without a doubt. The service on the other hand was terrible and ruined what should have been an excellent evening. The young waiter had a very poor attitude. He was abrupt, arrogant and condescending. He was unhelpful and completely inattentive. I have never left a restaurant and not left a tip but the service from this young man did not deserve one. I would want to visit again on my next visit but will only do so if I know that this waiter is no longer working at this really fabulous restaurant.

Lovely place to have very good food. I forgot to take a picture of the aubergine meze which was absolutely rich and tasty. Pasta was delicious as well!

I came across this restaurant by chance as I was meant to go to the more well known restaurant just next door. I knew it was something special as soon as I saw it. I've now eaten there two days in a row - by far my most memorable and favourite meals I've had in Thessaloniki. The calamari has been the standout for me along with the eggplant starter with feta which just oozes of flavours. Service is absolutely friendly too and the ambience - charming. Cannot recommend enough!

Lovely little place in the centre of Thessaloniki. Traditional plates with a modern twist. My omnivorous friends were very satisfied. There are labelled vegetarian options and a few vegan ones. The vegan mushroom gnocchi was tasty and light prepared with fresh ingredients! It will benefit from having a less neutral staff (i.e. smiling more). Overall, a very nice dinner!

A small and hidden local restaurant that surprised with flavors. The food was extremely tasty with a touch of the sea. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. Kind staff

Everything was wonderful! All dishes were very thought out with a lot of flavours and combinations that will delight you. Waiter was also very polite and helpful! The entire vibe was amazing, made me wish I lived in Thessaloniki

delicious! very cozy atmosphere, with amazing food and service. highly recommended!

Amazing food! A most go in the city

(Translated by Google) The food is delicious, the waitress is kinder, reasonable prices (Original) Γευστικό το φαγητό, ευγενέστερη η σερβιτόρα, λογικες τιμές

(Translated by Google) One of our favorite places to eat in Thessaloniki. The juvette with seafood and cuttlefish ink the best. The same and their 'simpler' dishes like bougiurdi and baked potato with cheese. The girl who served us very kindly. The only downside I can find is that due to the small size of the store there is not always a table available. (Original) Από τα αγαπημένα μας μέρη για φαγητό στη Θεσσαλονίκη. Το γιουβέτσι με θαλασσινά και μελάνι σουπιας ο,τι καλύτερο. Το ιδιο και τα πιο 'απλά' τους πιάτα οπως το μπουγιουρντί και η ψητή πατάτα με τυρί. Η κοπέλα που μας εξυπηρετησε ευγενέστατη. Το μόνο αρνητικό που μπορω να βρω είναι οτι λόγω του μικρού μεγέθους του μαγαζιού δεν υπάρχει πάντα διαθέσιμο τραπέζι.

(Translated by Google) And while entering you are created low expectations ... what I tried was exquisite! I intend to try the rest on my future visit !! (Original) Και ενώ μπαίνοντας σου δημιουργούνται χαμηλές προσδοκίες ...ότι δοκίμασα ήταν εξαίσιο ! Σκοπεύω να δοκιμάσω και τα υπόλοιπα σε μελλοντική μου επίσκεψη !!

(Translated by Google) Very nice food with original ideas, but also classic dishes uploaded. (Original) Πολύ ωραίο φαγητό με πρωτότυπες ιδέες , αλλά και κλασσικά πίατα ανεβασμένα .

(Translated by Google) You will go outside while the store has been set up and you will not even look at it. You will come in and your expectations will be low. But as soon as you have finished the meal, he will have compensated you with the above with the excellent food. Very nice recipes and all perfectly executed. (Original) Θα περάσεις απ'έξω ενώ στο έχουν συστήσει το μαγαζί και ούτε θα το κοιτάξεις. Θα μπεις μέσα και οι προσδοκίες σου θα είναι χαμηλές. Μόλις όμως θα έχεις τελειώσει το γεύμα θα σε έχει αποζημίωσει και με το παραπάνω με το εξαιρετικό φαγητό. Πολύ ωραίες συνταγές και όλες άψογα εκτελεσμένες.

Great place with very reasonable prices, The stuff was really kind and the plates were good proportions and tasty. Definitely would go again

(Translated by Google) Cozy and cozy restaurant very close to Plaza Navarínou. In addition to the menu, they have a blackboard on which they write down the daily specials. In our case, in addition to some starters, we chose a cannelloni with spinach and cheese that was delicious. We will be back to try more dishes. By the way, very good musical selection on the premises. (Original) Acogedor y coqueto restaurante muy cerca de la plaza Navarínou. Además de la carta, tienen una pizarra en la que anotan las especialidades del día. En nuestro caso, ademá de algunos entrantes, escogimos un canelón con espinacas y queso que estaba delicioso. Volveremos para probar más platos. Por cierto, muy buena selección musical en el local.

Very nice place and very friendly service. We ate some of the signature dishes and they really impressed us. Great value for money. Keep up the good work!

Amazing food in a very unassuming little restaurant. Definitely worth the visit as the chef is very talented and adds that little extra to every dish. Price won't break the bank.

Briljant food, delightful atmosphere and nice personel

Great atmosphere, delicious food and greek specialities!

One of the best, food was excellent, food menu with variaty and quality. Recommended totally!!! I go Once every two months for sure.

Delicious food choices and combinations.

The food in general was very good. Desserts lower than average. Mediocre service. Bad accounting, no receipt in a total of 115€ and an extra drink charged by mistake.

Cozy, small place, great to share some food, including Cretan specialties.

(Translated by Google) After a long time I ate at a shop that satisfied me with everything I tried. I went with a service bias due to some negative feedback, but I was very satisfied. The prices I think are very reasonable for the quality and quantity offered. The room is a bit small and dark for my tastes, but I'll definitely go back. (Original) Μετά από πολύ καιρό έφαγα σ'ένα μαγαζί που με ικανοποίησαν όλα όσα δοκίμασα. Πήγα με μία προκατάληψη όσων αφορά το σέρβις λόγω κάποιων αρνητικών σχολίων, αλλά έφυγα πολύ ικανοποιημένος. Οι τιμές θεωρώ ότι είναι πολύ λογικές για την ποιότητα και τη ποσότητα που προσφέρει. Ο χώρος είναι κάπως μικρός και σκοτεινός για τα γούστα μου,θα ξαναπάω όμως σίγουρα.

(Translated by Google) Very nice environment clean and very polite staff. If you want to try something different you should definitely visit it as each dish I tried was unique.
