Not many tourists come to this favorite haunt of lawyers and businesspeople who work in the Omonia Square area. You can stick to appetizers (technically, this
is an ouzeri) or have a full meal. Appetizers include delicious
loukanika (sausages) and
keftedes (meatballs); pass up the more expensive grilled shrimp and the seafood paella. The adventurous can try
ameletita (lamb's testicles). Whatever you have, you'll enjoy taking in the old photos on the walls, the handsome tiled floor, the marble-topped tables and bentwood chairs, and the regular customers, who combine serious eating with animated conversation.
