04 - Our Philosophy
Many years ago, we decided that Makrigianni, a tourist area, deserved to have an (authentic) restaurant that would be visited by both Greeks and tourists! It was an experiment! Many people told us that a restaurant for Greeks wouldn't survive in such a touristy area!
However, we persisted! We invested in food, service, wines, and staff! Today, we are pleased to have customers from all over Athens coming to discover our restaurant and our beautiful area!
