I'm not one to give many 5 star reviews. I get tired of seeing fast food and chain restaurants with 5 star ratings from people. We need to have some standards. I happily eat at a lot of places I would only rate a 3 (average). With that said, we did not have a reservation and had hoped to grab a seat on the patio but ended up eating at the bar. My colleague had a pasta dish which I sampled and thought was really good and I do not eat pasta hardly ever by choice. It was very light and flavorful with just tomatoes, some cured meat (something that started with a g) and pecorino cheese. I had 2 sides as my meal, a brussels sprouts dish and the summer squash. The Brussels had pomegranates and a nice aioli and was probably the best sprouts I've ever had and I get them a lot. The pomegranates were a great splash of flavor with every bite.And it was more than enough to share. The summer squash had a mascarpone cheese dip with radishes and finely chopped pistachios. They were perfectly seared and you could really taste the freshness. Parking in 5 points is never easy. Was able to get a space behind the fire station (2 hr parking). Service was very good and the noise level was fine to me but the restaurant was not completely full.
Excellent food and service! The small plates and mushroom pasta were all great. We’ll be back!
Great restaurant with great service to match. The pasta tasted amazing & the tiramisu paired with Nocello was 10/10. I’d recommend this place for a date night!
We came here after seeing it on a list of top restaurants in Athens I had found, and they still had reservations available. It was very noisy inside the dining room - not a big issue for just 2 of us but tough for larger groups. I ordered a virgin cocktail (same price as with alcohol) and my husband got a beer. We got the mushroom bruschetta small plate (tasty but not like regular bruschetta - it was 2 soft bread slices with lemony ricotta and mushrooms on top), the fava bean small plate (the star of the show), and the cioppino entree (we thought it was just okay; it wasn’t super flavorful and the toast was my favorite part). The staff and our server were good, I just wish the food had been a bit better.
Great food and vibe. A little too pricy. Duck breast is better than lamb rack. All the deserts are kinda too sweet but great.
Nice enough food, but not as nice as the price point commands. It's never good when after three courses your hoping there are leftovers in the fridge when you get in. The back tables overlooking the garbage bins don't add much to the dining experience either. There are better options in Athens.
The saffron mafalde was delicious!
Dinner for two, first visit. The table was so wobbly that our drinks spilled when people walked on the wood floor. The radicchio salad and burrata were just ok. My husbands old fashioned was served in hot glassware. We had a starter, salad, entree and dessert. Service was good. Food was okay. Entree took so long the server gave us free Brussel sprouts. It felt like it was trying to be fine dining prices without the experience. $101.00 for three cocktails, one starter, one salad, one entree, and one dessert; all shared.
Tried to make a reservation and website makes it completely impossible. Would love to eat here this weekend for Valentine’s Day, but not going to be an option since I’ve been trying to use the site all week with no luck. Please fix this
Devine food. Great atmosphere!
