Aleria

Our final evening in Greece was celebrated at Aleria and it did not disappoint. Beautiful and delicious food, excellent service, very good value. The courses came out at the right pace for us and we were surprised by a few unlisted "extra" courses. We appreciated the flexibility in the menu - two of us ordered 5 courses and two ordered 6 courses. They have a meat menu and a vegetarian menu but allowed my pescatarian mom to take some from each side so she could have the seafood courses. We didn't care for the crab dish, which was a bummer because crab is one of my favorite foods. That being said, everything else was incredible, better than expected, and we were all very satisfied with our meal. Sometimes it feels like you don't get enough food at these fancier restaurants but that was not the case at all at Aleria.

Pristine dining experience at Aleria. Came for a birthday celebration and the entirety of the staff ensured it was an evening to remember. From the very first moment, until the conclusion of our evening 3 hours later, the staff did not miss a single beat in delivering impeccable service. We enjoyed both 7-plate tasting menus as well as a refined selection of wine and offerings from the sommelier. Without doubt, this is gearing to be one of the greatest culinary efforts in Athens. I am elated to say that this restaurant is one to yearn for. Excellent in every regard.

I love to eat. And according to my mom, I can even cook pretty well. I’ve always thought that small, multi-flavored portions are… well, kind of fancy. Beautiful, refined — but usually you still end up craving a proper gyro afterward. This time? Surprisingly — no. Right, Nikolos?

Each course was phenomenal with so much depth. The wine pairings were also excellent with much thought and knowledge behind each one. The spirit selection was excellent, in general. My wife and I enjoyed every bite and every sip! To top it all off, the service was second to none. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Athens.
