Ovio

"Run by celebrity chef Panos Ioannidis, this restaurant is, without doubt, an excellent choice for those exploring the busy streets of central Athens. In this spacious setting, divided into three dining areas (one on the ground floor, a few tables upstairs, plus a pleasant terrace) the chef offers a menu based around Italian cuisine. This includes homemade pastas, such as the delicious Gnocchi with a velvety sauce, diced pear, grated walnuts and finished with gorgonzola in two textures. These are complemented by meat dishes and pizzas cooked in the wood-fired oven, plus an extensive selection of Italian wines and a balcony where guests can savour an array of impressive cocktails." - Michelin Inspector

"Chef Panos Ioannidis worked for years in restaurants in Italy before returning to Athens to create Ovio. The smell of fresh pizza from the wood-fired oven welcomes you to the cozy space, a casual setting for the restaurant’s fine dining. Along with pizza under various toppings, the restaurant serves mains like pasta and risotto, as well as vegan and vegetarian dishes. [$$$]" - Demetrios Ioannou

I didn't expect to find such an exceptional Italian restaurant in Greece, but here we are. Fresh products are the key for amazing dishes and this restaurant knows it. You can feel the high quality ingredients in every bite, especially the Pizza. We had gnocchi, blue crab risotto and margarita pizza, followed by chocolate pistachio dessert. Everything was amazing and tasty. I would love to come back in the future!

I had an incredible dining experience here! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and elegant, striking the perfect balance between fine dining and authentic Italian hospitality. The menu is thoughtfully crafted with high-quality ingredients, and every dish was beautifully presented. The pasta was perfectly cooked with rich, balanced flavors, and the mains showcased both creativity and tradition. The service was outstanding: attentive without being intrusive, with staff who were knowledgeable about the dishes. A true Michelin-level experience in Athens — refined, authentic, and memorable. Highly recommended for anyone who loves Italian cuisine at its best.

The night before we went to this restaurant, a friend of ours was telling us that he didn't like it. Thank God we did not listen to him because, overall, we had a great experience. The three dishes we ordered were superb with the only exception to the risotto with truffle chips that was too salty. The service was polite and genuinely friendly and the atmosphere was ok. Due to overcrowding, there were some issues with cleanliness (floor & tables). Lastly, expect a bill on the expensive side.

I went to this restaurant for my bday and i have to say that the expectations were met. The dishes were well made, the drinks were immaculate and the tiramisu oh my god! I also have to note that the service was exceptional since the staff were really kind and helpful by explaining everything about our food selections! I totally recommend this place for a fancier meal experience.

It's a great place. It's very difficult to find a place in Athens that offers this kind of service. This is the best service in the city center. It's like they brought Italy to Greece. Congratulations to all the staff.

Ordered a prosciutto truffle pizza. It was delicious. BUT if you love truffle, don’t take it. They put so little truffle in it just to justify adding “truffle” to its name, you almost won’t feel it. Haven’t seen anything like this in my life. For this price in Paris, France, I’ll get a pizza with x4 truffle. But yeah pizza is amazing, just take the regular one with no truffle

My recent meal at Ovio in Athens was nothing short of spectacular. From start to finish, it was a culinary journey that left me utterly impressed and deeply satisfied. The food was, without a doubt, the star of the show – absolutely awesome and wonderfully indulgent. Every dish that arrived at our table was a work of art, both visually stunning and bursting with incredible flavors. The chefs at Ovio clearly have a passion for creating memorable dining experiences, and it shines through in every bite. I particularly appreciated the generous portions and the rich, decadent nature of the cuisine; it truly felt like a treat for the senses. If you're looking for a restaurant in Athens that delivers an exceptional meal and a genuinely indulgent culinary adventure, Ovio is an absolute must-visit. I'm already looking forward to my next opportunity to return!
