Fodor's Expert Review To Kafeneio

A Kolonaki institution, this bistro-style traditional restaurant is slightly fancier and more costly than the normal mezedopoleio, with cloth napkins, candles on the tables, and walls decorated with writings by its famous patrons. The menu centers on delicate Greek classics (such as lamb with lemon or roast suckling pig) but also some international fare. The service is warm and professional andhe clientele includes politicians and diplomats on their lunch break. For the freshest dishes, ask the waiter for the day's specials.
