    Great place! The staff is very polite and knowledgeable on the menu. Food is very well prepared with original high quality ingredients from Greece. They have a long list of local wines from Greece, made it really hard to pick our choices.

    A hidden gem! I do not remember the last time I was so positively surprised by a new restaurant in Vienna. Small, cozy, family-owned, offering a fantastic taste of Greece! The Okra dish was the highlight! Absolutely delicious! I even ordered a second way to takeaway for the day after. 101% recommended!

    Great authentic Greek food. The place is small and cosy. Prices are a bit high but worth it.

    By far the best greek food experience I've ever had! The wines are carefully selected and served in precisely matching glasses. The food is just, ahh! incredible! I can't wait to be back.

    I had the octopus, it was fine but only one tentacle for 14 euros seems a bit excessive. In addition, it was served with strawberry jam and eggplants, a combination that definitely didn't go together. My friend ordered their stuffed cabbage, the flavor was good but the cabbage itself was a bit undercooked.

    Delicious greek food. 🇬🇷 It certainly fits the trendy culinary scene of Yppenplatz. Great selection of Greek wines also.🍷

  • 5/5 Damianos P. M. 1 year ago on Google • 37 reviews
    Yesterday a friend and I tried out the place. The food was nice and handmade. Overall atmosphere (music & service) was an authentic experience that someone would have in a tavern (family-based restaurant) in Greece. :)

    Great host, authentic food. Natural wine selection is amazing. Go and enjoy. Highly recommended.

    Small Greek place, a bit on the fancier (and more expensive) side. Exquisite wine selection and a small but innovative menu, which changes regularly. I had artichokes with carrots - very good! If you're looking for your average Greek restaurant with a pile of Souvlaki on a pile of rice, you'll be disappointed. But if you like good food and want to try something new, try out this place!

  • 5/5 dimitra k. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely perfect Greek food, super friendly people, love this place!

  • 5/5 Marcus T. 4 years ago on Google
    Good, straightforward Greek. Not heavy, not too ample, not expensive. Rustic atmosphere is cozy inside, where there is just one small room for seating. More room outside when Zeus cooperates. Staff are sincere and proud of the place. Recommended.

    Incredible authentic Greek food and amazing staff.

  • 5/5 Marcel B. 7 months ago on Google
    Excellent food, wines and service. Probably the best greek food I ever had!

  • 5/5 Tom H. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a delicious meal at this cosy and unassuming Greek restaurant. Very friendly and welcoming staff. The food was a mix of traditional but with a modern twist, and very tasty. THe lamb and beef was perfectly done. HIghly recommended.

  • 5/5 sergio n. 10 months ago on Google
    I love it. We love it. I feel home here. A real Greek cuisine du marché, not the usual standard recipes one can find everywhere. Inventive, fresh, warm-hearted, real, a true soul food

  • 5/5 Nancy R. 1 year ago on Google • 4 reviews
    The food was very tasty, nicely prepared and served by the very friendly staff. And so genuinely Greek!! Kafeneon brought me back memories of my childhood Sunday gatherings when my grandmother used to cook with love for the whole family. Nice Greek wine, perfectly paired with the served dishes. Will definitely visit again when back in Vienna.

    We dined in during our honeymoon in Vienna. We really loved it. Warm & cozy environment and tasteful dinner. Perfect service with great wine suggestions based on the menu.

  • 4/5 Julia R. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was amazing and staff was nice. Only downside was that they were short on staff that day and we had to wait really long. Staff shortness in gastronomy is a general problem in Austria right now as far as I know but I think they should warn people about the longer waiting times when they are about to sit down. Otherwise it was great.

    Very cozy place with delicious and tasty food! It's a alternative and very good choice in the city of Vienna.

  • 5/5 Kyrill Z. 4 years ago on Google
    My frustration with not finding an authentic greek restaurant in vienna is now throroughly removed after having found this gem. This is no tourist hell, nor a place where you can find your favourite clichée-food anytime & anyday. But what you get is seasonal and fresh.

  • 5/5 Agathe Z. 5 years ago on Google
    Great, authentic place - you can feel that the food is made with lots of love! Your order can take some time to be served because the kitchen is pretty small, but it's worth the wait :)

  • 5/5 José O. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Dasha P. 3 years ago on Google
    Great place! Highly recommend)

  • 5/5 Almir M. 5 years ago on Google
    This is a hidden pleasant surprise that is worth a visit. It is located in a lateral street, and I just found by chance, but did not regret to have stopped. It was a pleasant experience. The food is wonderful and with a cozy ambiance. We did not have a reservation (the place is small, so reservation is a must) but the owner did her best to accommodate us and also took time to gave us a lot of tips and suggestions, although the place was full and all staff busy. The portions are good and we could shared the plates to our satisfaction. She also gave us samples of Greek drinks and food. I will be back for sure, and will recommend to my friends.
