You can choose traditional meat or fish dishes, vegetarians will also find variety in the menu. The drinks are affordable too, no traps, no nasty surprises, it is all on the menu!The service is invariably impeccable and speedy even when... More

Came here for evening meal. Food was delicious! Had standard Greek fare and it hit the spot. Good service. We had two main meals, a salad, wine and water for under 30 euros. Certainly worth a visit.

Friendly service and more food than you can ever hope to eat, that's Efxaris, at the top of Monastiraki in old town Athens, very near the ceramics museum, and within sight of Hadrian's Library. Plenty of outdoor seating, but the walls literally open up to make the interior even more spacious. There is also an atrium, and a mezzanine dining... More

Although we do not usualy eat in dens turistic areas we've tried this restaurant based on the trip-advisor reviews and for sure we were not disappointed. The food and the service are were great, prices ok. Keep in mind that the portions are huge. Bottom line, for sure we would recommend this restaurant further. Ps: great lamb-chops.

We had a dinner at Efxaris in our trip in Athens. Can have the look of a touristic restaurant, but inside everything is different. Where we stayed here, there are only local people eating. We take greek salad, baked feta, dolmades, chicken souvlaki, and everything was tasty and enormous. The staff was kind and polite, and the atmosphere very good.... More

We went to Efxaris on New Year's Eve and I'm really glad we did! The food was superb, the staff was nice and there was a great ambience. We ordered a lot of hot and cold appetizers and the big meat variety plate and really everything was delicious. Definitely a must go when you want to have dinner in Athens!

It was not expensive and staff were very helpful especially Haris who helped us log onto the the free WIFI which is a boon and he also has made a great... More

I liked the street this was on (Andrianou). This was the first restaurant at the beginning of the street and I chose it because I knew it got decent reviews on TA. The starters were large and our salad was huge. This alone filled us up. We then chose the small seafood platter which was massive. We could barely get... More
