A glass dining room inside the Renzo Piano cultural centre at Faliro, looking out over the park and the sea, with one of the most ambitious Greek tasting menus in the country.

The cooking
Modern Greek at the top of its register: local produce read through precise, contemporary technique, course after course. The setting, all light and water, is part of the argument.
Why it is in VANE
It puts Greek cooking on the same footing as any capital's best table, without dressing up as French or Nordic to do it.

VANE selection. Chosen with a critic's eye and judged independently. It's here because we judged it, not because it paid.
On this profile: a researched profile, drawn from the restaurant's own record and reporting, not a claim of a first-hand visit. Where we have eaten there, the review says so.
