Shrimp dumplings 8/10, perfect plate presentation, but the pasta was a little bit overcooked. Beef salad 9/10, great balance between the ingredients used. The amount of beef will satisfy you. King crab sushi 8/10, good tatse, but the rolls weren't shaped as good as you would expect for a plate of its price. Tuna sushi(not the spicy one)10/10, the best of what we tried regarding the main course. Great balance, great taste. Yuzu with white chocolate for dessert 10/10, the best choice we made overall. Great presentation, it was a lemon-like ball filled with sour syrup that complemented the white chocolate crumbs in an excellent way. Unfortunately, there was no room to seat the one next to the other and sometimes we had to yell to be heard. The dress code is supposed to be smart casual, but most of the ladies were wearing the dress that they would wear on Christmas eve 😂 Good experience, but overpriced for what you get.

Food was good, the experience was joyful, and the view of the Acropolis was breathtaking. Definitely will go back when I make it back over to Greece.

We had the best server we have ever had in Greece and we are in Greece for four months a year. Her name was Joann but surely spelled in a Greek way. She was kind, smiling, attentive and efficient not something usually associated with servers in Athens. Her service made for a perfect evening. What a difference it would make in Greece if more servers had her attitude rather than the grumpy, don’t ask don’t care attitude of most servers in Athens

We had our final dinner at the rooftop restaurant over looking the Parthenon. It was amazing - we had made reservations and had a beautiful table and great service. The our good was so fresh and delicious. I had their drink special made with beet root - but similar to a Paloma that was out of this world. We love sashimi and had the Omakase sashimi dish that was so fresh and tasty! Highly recommend.
