Athinorama, the weekly review of the Athenian scene, has chosen Spondi several years running as the best place in town. The menu features light dishes -- the fresh fish, especially the salmon, is superb -- as well as dishes that you will find delightful (roast pork with myzithra cheese and a fig-and-yogurt sauce). The setting, a handsome 19th-century town house with a courtyard, is lovely; the wine list, extensive; the service, excellent; and the desserts, divine. You'll probably want to take a cab here that would cost you (from Syntagma Sq.) around 6€ ($7.80) It was voted the best restaurant in Greece for 6 consecutive years (2001-06).
