Description
The dining room maintains a chilled, low-noise vibe with an upscale but not stuffy tone. The kitchen focuses on Greek dishes that evoke summer vacations, featuring whole dorade, lavraki, and crispy-skinned sea bass alongside grilled lamb chops and seafood orzotto. Because the multi-level space accommodates large groups and private dining, it frequently hosts celebrations looked after by an attentive, accommodating staff.
