The atmosphere here is amazing. People were queuing for a table as it’s a popular spot for locals. There are many small dishes to choose from for a small price, the draft beer is fresh and the service is running up and down the hill making sure everyone is served at the right time. Must be a workout!

We stumbled upon this open aired restaurant. There are tables along the pebbled walkway. All they serve are appetizers but no problem because if you order a variety, you’ll get full. Each plate is plenty! They don’t skimp on the quantity. Prices are VERY reasonable. They have many choices of happy spirits to choose from.

I have passed this restaurant / cafe on many previous visits to Athens but never thought to stop in. Thankfully, I did so on my second day of this trip and managed to make it back again another time before I left.
Its simplicity at its best. Basic wooden chairs and tables lined up on both sides of an inclined road (so people always walking past). Just above a child friendly park with trees for shade.
Service is not especially friendly but its attentive and very very efficient. When they are very busy, they easily have 50 to 60 patrons but the 4 to 5 staff on hand seemed to have no difficulty making sure everyone was fed.
I ordered the two dishes that came recommended in a review. The lentil salad and the fried calamari. Both were excellent and well accompanied by an OK dry white wine. It was early afternoon and I took my paper and sat there for over an hour and half reading and people watching.
The second visit was the calamari again (this time I asked for less seasoning - as I found it a tad salty) and their french fries with oregano. The along with a beer on a sunny day and I was a happy man.
The place is also busy (though less so) in the mornings. So seems their coffee is decent too. But a great place to have a meal for good value in the heart of Kolonaki and feel like it your neighbourhood.

We stopped for a quick lunch at this cafe, recommended by the Airbnb hosts. On a sloped path to a little park. Very pleasant, with prompt service and a limited but fine menu. Don’t miss the minor and rarely visited Hadrian reservoir a few steps away in the park. Go through the gates to look in the windows.

Love the people watching on the patio. Chairs could be more comfortable, but the patio is so fun you forget about it. Food is good for a reasonable price. Service can be a bit slow but if you wave them down, they come over pretty quickly.

Lovely spot to enjoy a bottle of wine and a snack in the early evening and watch the world go by. A nice atmosphere with the waiters running up and down the hill with orders and families enjoying the little park at the bottom of the slope.

A nice place with a long tradition and history. Does it live up to it? Not exactly. The food is mediocre and expensive. No value for money.

I love this place. Very casual. Go there for tapas/shared plates, or for a meal for one. The food is great (the Octopus marinated in vinegar is a must), and served quickly. If you need to eat quickly to go somewhere else in the evening, this is the place. If you want to eat and languish and sit and eat and drink all night, this is the place. If you are by yourself or with a group, this is the place. All tables are outside on a pedestrian walkway. Very casual, and unpretentious - just good food at excellent prices. Locals and visitors alike frequent the restaurant. The servers never seem to sit still. Food served until very late, and always crowded in the evening and at night on weekends (but there always seems to be a table available when you need one). When I go to Athens, this is a must-visit for dinner.

The location is great as it is in a quite spot of Kolonaki. You can go there most of the hours during the day. I like going there in the afternoons with friends for beers and light food.

The best local greek restaurant. The prices are very cheap. You can go with the children because there is a park next to the bar and you can see them while you are eating or drinking.
The best restaurant/bar have been on Athenas

Really good value for money. Squid, pitas, halloumi all fantastic. All sharing plates. Not very busy during the day. But very very busy in the evenings.
Very convenient if you are staying at the St George Lycabettus Hotel. It's literally a stones throw away.
Service was great. Locals seem to eat there which is always a good sign.

Kolonaki / Lykavittos
By far the ritziest neighborhood in town, Kolonaki is home to most of the chic boutiques and designer label stores. Here, the wealthy say no to austerity by dressing in their finest and spending hours in the trendy cafés around Kolonaki Square, sipping the most expensive coffee in Europe. The area also contains a couple of notable museums and cultural institutions, which add to the air of nobility. The leafy upper reaches of Kolonaki transition into Lykavittos Hill, the highest point in central Athens. Climb the paths through its wooded slopes to the tiny chapel at the top, from where you are rewarded with stunning views across the Acropolis to the sea and even the mountains of the Peloponnese on a clear day. The wooden amphitheater up here hosts regular concerts during the summer.
