Alficon Speakeasy Gastronomy - Ironda 8

Went for Valentines Day dinner. Excellent! Superb dishes, interesting tastes and combinations! Staff was very knowledgeable about the wine list and super friendly! Will go back again! Highly recommended!

Celebrated our anniversary here during our first visit to Greece and the experience was fantastic as you would expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant. Immaculate service from Dimitris, and they even gave us a complimentary traditional Greek dessert which really capped off a wonderful dinner. Must try if you are in Athens!

Outstanding! My friend and I ordered the tasting menu with wine pairings and it was worth every cent. The staff was very knowledgeable about each part of the meal and the wines. Every was cooked to perfection and the small street it’s located on was very quiet, perfect for an intimate last dinner while traveling in Greece. Would highly recommend!

We visited the restaurant on August 1st, 2021 a party of 2 people. We had high hopes for this meal and oh, did they deliver! We had already decided that we would go for the degustation menu. We ordered two cocktails from the list and waited for our food: 1) They offered us some bread along with good olive oil, olives and tarama sauce. Excellent quality and gave us a taste of the ingredients they use 2) First dish was the scallop. What! a! treat! A taste bomb exploded into our mouths and got us excited for what's next 3) Strawberry or tomatoes: A very modern twist on the classic Greek salad (and might I say on the gazpacho?). Normally, I do not like Greek salad, but this one I devoured! If only we knew, we would have reserved some bread for the papara (if you are Greek you know) 4) Orzo with langoustine and tomato tartare: A tasty overall plate but compared to the rest that we tried, not as strong. I would prefer the orzo slightly more cooked 5) Beef with potatoes and onion cream: Wow! Blew me away! The kind of dish that would make me go again and again. 6) Feta, honey, watermelon: A very interesting combination of textures. A well executed and thought of plate that got them the "Michelin plate" award 7) The dessert was a cinnamon and grape must cream along with grape must "soil" and grapes. Once again a revelation! The dessert was so good that made us want to order the rest of the desserts to try them out: 8) Chocolate tarte with meringue: Although our waiter tried to discourage from this as it was a very hot summer night, we went ahead and got it. Although it was very tasty as well, we should have listened to him! 9) Rose flavoured ice cream and cream along with sliced almond: Once again superb and an excellent dessert. They have a very good wine list with mostly natural wines. I also have to mention our special thanks to the maitre d', Elias. He was very attentive, he replied to all of our questions and also listened to our suggestions. At the end and since we were the last people remaining, he offered to give us a quick tour of the insides of the restaurant. I really look forward to dine inside during winter! At this point, I have to mention that due to Covid measures in Greece, we are not allowed to dine indoors. The dining took place on the outside of the restaurant along a pedestrian road. Additionally, me and my friend are fully vaccinated and had our masks on while inside and also keeping all necessary distances. Overall, please visit the place before they get Michelin star and prices go up. You will certainly not be disappointed and I am looking forward to going back!

We had an amazing dinner at Alficon! Ambience, staff, and of course the food and the drinks were exceptional. My personal highlight was the beef tartare with caviar - amongst the best I've ever tried!!

Second time to this amazing fine dining cosy restaurant to taste the new winter menu. We were amazed with the new dishes, for the creative recipes and how well they are cooked! The new menu has fish and meat choices, we chose the meat course and totally loved it! The dessert in the end was fantastic!! Service and stuff as always was great! If you are in Athens and like fine dining, this place is totally recommended and proves why it is in 2020's Michelin list!! 6 stars experience!! tip: reservation for table is recommended.

What a wonderful dining experience at Alficon! The restaurant is located near the famous Athens Stadium in a residential neighborhood. It’s nice to be away from the touristy area. The staff was friendly and welcoming. My husband and I picked the tasting menu. Every thing were beautiful presented in gorgeous dishes. The scallops were our favorites. Perfectly cooked with this luxurious mousse. The chef featured the best of Greek seafood for our tasting menu. Our waiter recommended a dry and minerally white wine to go with the seafood centric tasting menu. We were very impressed with the modern Greek cuisine at Alficon and their wonderful staff. Thanks for a wonderful dining experience!

A unique experience. We went for the full menu experience and was the best choice: each and every dish and wine were combined together to guide you through a journey of tastes. Quality, service, knowledge and taste are definitely the key win of Alficon. Excellent and highly suggested if you want to raise the bar of quality food tasted in your life
