Lovely little unpretentious restaurant with delicious, traditional food (small share plates). Some of the best food we've eaten in Greece in the past two weeks. Definitely worth trying.

We came across this place by chance and were attracted by the small plates on offer. We opted for four or five dishes between two and all of the food was really nice, different to the usual Greek food. Service was kind and friendly. Highly recommend you try it.

Saganaki and meatballs were very good! Restaurant was a bit warm and no tzatziki:(

We had read great things about this place and it didn't disappoint. The guy who runs the place was absolutely charming and the food was incredible. The cheese pie with honey was one of the best dishes I have ever had. It's a mezedes place - so small plates - with a menu of around twelve items and has around ten tables somewhere inside and some outside. We got there early by Greek standards - around 7.30pm - and were the first ones there but it soon filled up. He had a local beer from an Athenian brewery and I had the house wine and they were both excellent. We had four plates and drinks and it was €35 in total. Amazing value for food of this quality. Don't miss this place if you are anywhere near Piraeus - it's outstanding.

What a gem. Last day after 14 days round-trip in Greece and I kid you not, this was in the top 5 of culinary experiences. The chef, manager, waiter, multi-talented host is not only funny and charming, he can cook like a Greek god. We had three dishes, Dakos, meatballs with spicy sauce and off menu pork steaks: Every single one was outstanding and had something special about it. This dude is gifted. Prices fair, service outstanding, taste unbelievable. Examples: The dakos comes not only with capers, but some marinated algae. My girlfriend said the meatballs are meat clouds and she was right. The pork... Normally we're pretty good with figuring out spices and recipes but this one - let's just say it was brilliant and leave it at that. Just go there, order as much as you can potentially eat and share, you will not be disappointed, literal masterclass in original Greek Mezédes. Astonishing performance, keep it up.

If we had to choose just one place to dine during our trip, without hesitation it would be O Kerveros. We spent two weeks in Greece — Athens, Kefalonia, and Milos — and this was hands down the most wonderful food experience we had, even better than the fanciest restaurants. It’s a casual taverna-style eatery with small plates, but every single one was insanely delicious. The flavors were simply indescribable — so bright, so pure, and yet everything felt simple and unpretentious. We completely fell in love. We tried the chicken, meatballs, potatoes, dakos, cheese spread, the cheese pie with honey, and of course, white wine. Every dish was a firework of taste. Combined with the cozy, homely atmosphere and local music, the whole evening felt like magic. Truly unforgettable — a place we will always want to return to.

Fantastic food and service. We dropped in here after arriving late in Athens and were immediately welcomed. Every dish was excellent and there was a diverse menu of Greek food.
