Ouzeri Lesvos

One of the best fish taverns in Athens. It's rather small with a limited number of tables so reservation is a must. Everything we ordered came well cooked, fresh and very tasty. We especially enjoyed Beskandritsa, calamari, mussels and tzatziki. The service was friendly and quick. A bit noisy though and without music. Prices are on the upper side but rather reasonable for a central restaurant.

Excellent experience at Ouzeri Lesvos. A traditional and warm atmosphere — rustic and authentic, perfect for a genuine Greek experience. The fish was incredibly fresh and delicious, and the staff were both professional and extremely welcoming. I went there alone, and Paraskevas took great care of me all evening with kindness and professionalism. I’ll definitely be back!

The waiter was very kind and managed to find us a table for two even though we didn’t have a reservation. Most of the guests were locals. The portions were generous and perfect for sharing.

Having the Lesvos tavern experience in Athens - including the special seafood and a selection of Lesvos made Ouzo bottles. Reserve a table as the place is crowded most of time.

My first Meal in Athens, it was so delicious The Prawn saganaki was incredible. It is a vibrant Greek dish featuring succulent prawns simmered in a rich tomato sauce infused with garlic, onions, and a kick of chilli.

We stumbled across this place and had the best meal of our Athens trip here - 10/10 recommend!! We had basically the whole menu and particularly loved the zucchini fritters, the dolmas, the prawn saganaki and the SEA BASS 👌👌👌👌

We really didn’t like this restaurant. We don’t understand how it has such high ratings. The staff were very rude. We ordered tyrokafteri, but it had nothing to do with the real thing — it tasted strange, like it had been stored uncovered in the fridge and had absorbed other odors. We also ordered calamari — it was very tough, had no salt, and had a strong eggy taste, which was quite unpleasant. Out of all the fish listed on the menu, only three were actually available. If you don’t have the fish, why include them on the menu? Overall, it was terrible. I didn’t like it at all.

5/5 experience if you’re looking for something authentic and laid back. We were the only tourists and there were 6-7 tables all locals. The food was delicious, service on point, staff friendly (spoke good English) and atmosphere charming. Octopus cooked in red wine was my favorite. It was soft and the sauce was tasty. The fried hake was also pretty good. I highly recommend this place.
