Dopios - Skouleniou 1

This is a brilliant little place at the center of Athens. The menu may be a bit biased towards the sea (also given the chef’s resume) but with several meat and vegan options as well. Traditional flavor are twisted (just a bit to make them fresh again) and served in a relaxed informal environment. Not all dishes carry equal kick of course (the shrimp pop corn with sweet black garlic is exceptional while sardines in vine leaves are a bit flat) but overall the place is worth multiple visits. The friendly staff add to the overall customer experience. Good start guys!

Recommended by our hotel, Greek food with a twist. Excellent! We had the popcorn shrimp THE BEST. The fried cheese balls equally good. I tried the sardines wrapped in grape leaves....on my to do list, probably as good as they get. Excellent fresh lemonade with mint rounded out an excellent lunch.

Very pleased with my experience. I am now sure that Mr. Peskias (signing the menu) is hard to let you down. Elevated taverna menu and a very nice ambient (only inside, if you ask me). Well priced. Not happy with the way the waiter handled our remark for what seemed like an undercooked chicken.

So many restaurants to choose from. Why choose this one? Because the wait staff are nice and the food is excellent. The Panna cotta is not to be past up. As a person who can't consume cows milk I highly enjoyed being able to eat this. The taste is divine. The pricing is good too.

SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!! Chef Peskias is an acclaimed chef and the expectations for the taste and the quality of the food is already high. The attitude though, the quality of the absolutely personalized service and the actual taste of the food was an experience that is simply over and beyond. Our experience was during a late lunch on a Saturday. We had a diabetic person in our table and the care that the stuff showed was astonishing. After we asked our waiter if the main dish of that person contained any ingredients that we should refrain its consumption, she came back quickly informing us about the specific dish with detailed explanation. On top of that after two minutes, another member of the stuff came back and informed us about all dishes we had ordered one by one and what this person should eat or not. Upon all this responsible, attentive and thoughtful attitude, they offered us a dish that the diabetic friend could eat without any concern, even if we already had dishes –diabetic friendly on our table. So apart from the considerate attitude of one waitress, the internal communication of the stuff and the cooperation with the kitchen that Dopios has, is giving an example of an excellent service. Needless to write anything about the food. Everything is so delectable done. Greek cuisine with an interesting twist, balancing perfectly between tradition and respectful modernization. Fun fact was when I went to my office on Monday to share my wonderful experience with my colleagues, half of them mentioned that they had been already and they left impressed like I did, and few others booked and going two days later, came back with the same enthusiasm. By the way my images don’t give justice to the amazing taste. Book today and don’t miss it!

I highly recommend going to Dopios for lunch or dinner! As you enter the restaurant the setting is romantic and cozy. The menu offers a wide variety of starters and delicious main dishes. I was glad that the service accompanied the high quality of the cooking, as the waiters were very friendly! Thank you!

Today, I paid a visit to Dopios, Athens. This is the local restaurant with Greek cuisine, located in the city centre. All ordered courses were delicious and had an individual test arrangement, and it made me a sutisfection sense ?.

We had a terrific dinner! They had a nicely curated menu. Anything we tried was super tasty! I think our highlight was the fried shrimps with black skordalia..we loved it! The service was very friendly and attentive. All in all a perfect spot to enjoy modern Greek cuisine in Athens!
