Athiri restaurant opened in 2004 by chef Alexandros Kardasis in Korydallos, while in october 2007 it moved to Kerameikos at the old neoclassical home on Plataion street with its full-of-green yard. The restaurant's philosophy is based on creativity which combines greek/Mediterranean tradition with modern progress and perspective. Alexandros Kardasis's cuisine, an on-going search for and care in selecting the best raw materials and greek wines, unique ambience and discreet service are steady values of ours, along with always looking to develop further and a good mood!
