Orizontes Lycabettus

We love this place. The view is spectacular. Nothing to compare. We had peach Bellini and kir Royale to start the evening with our bread, olive oil and olives. Then we shared a spectacular salad as well as the sea bass fish of the day. For dessert we had chocolate souffle and vanilla ice cream. Waiters were attentive and we highly recommend it to everyone. I read some of the other reviews that were not as positive, but we were here on a Wednesday evening at the beginning of November. Not many people and we sat right at the edge of the wall outdoors looking at the Parthenon. We enjoyed the sunset and the transition to night time darkness.

We arrived at 1 p.m. for our reservation, but the place seemed a bit abandoned at first — nobody greeted us at the door. After a while we went inside and found a waiter preparing tables, who told us we had to wait until everything was ready. It also took some time until we could place our order, but once we did, the waiting time until the food was served was perfectly fine. The waiter got a bit friendlier after he noticed we ordered a full meal and a nice bottle of wine. As the restaurant started to fill up, it became clear that one waiter alone wasn’t really enough, even though there weren’t that many guests yet. The food itself was okay — nothing exceptional, but enjoyable. The highlight is definitely the view, which makes the visit worthwhile. Would I recommend it? Yes, kind of — just make sure to bring enough time if you go there for lunch.

The view is breath taking. Entering to the restaurant, everything looks nice and luxurious, unfortunately some of the staff are not really nice. The host was really rude. If it wasn’t for our waiter, Stefanos, who was kind, I’d be putting 1 single star. The food was great, gourmet (small portions).

We had the most amazing meal at this restaurant. Had one of the most beautiful views of the city. Our server, Stavros, was attentive and courteous and made the experience that much better. Take the funicular up the mountain ($13 euros round trip), they arrive every 15 minutes. We decided to sit outside, and despite the heat there is alot of wind at the top of the mountain. Recommend booking your reservation in advance as it fills up quickly.

I’m so happy to have visited this restaurant — the environment is absolutely beautiful, with a stunning view of part of Greece. Although the food was quite simple, it was prepared really well and tasted great. The only downside was the dessert, which was far too sweet and not really suited to the Asian palate. However, the staffs were kind and attentive, doing their best to make sure we were satisfied

We had a good time here, view was great, food was tasty and staffs are friendly and attentive. We are well aware the food is pricier but given the location, it's expected. Remember to make reservations in advance if you wana secure a good seat

We visited the restaurant a few days ago. If you don't take into account that we refused water, but they brought it to us, spilled it and made us pay for it, everything was fine. Also found hair in the fish, but we had no problem replacing the fish with a new one, but it had a lot more bones than the previous one. And so the view is very beautiful, when booking indicated what table we prefer and it was taken into account. The rest of the food is delicious and there are no questions.

What can I say. View and Food were excellent. We had a great terrace table which overlooked Athens. For those who love their meat the Pork Tomahawk is sensational. Definitely book in advance
