Fantastic Italian in Athens. We got right in and had a great experience. The food is phenomenal, you can’t go wrong with any... dish. Read more
The service was very nice and the atmosphere made you feel like it was the simple luxury they presented. It was a pleasure being... there. Mike especially made the experience. Thanks a million to him. Read more
Definitely don't judge a book by its cover, Ciró had a wonderful menu of exciting cocktails, and the Eggplant Parmesan was... divine. Seating was a little tightly packed, but not uncomfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the lemon cake wasabsolutely wonderful. Read more
We visited early in the evening as a party of two. Upon arrival to the nearly empty restaurant, we asked to be seated. We were... asked if we had reservations, which we did not, and then were told we could be seated at the bar. We were not given the optionto wait for a table. Because the bar did not have much space, we asked again if we could be seated at a table after we had adrink. The hostess denied our request to be seated at a table and we felt very disrespected. Earlier that day, I had checked thewebsite and Facebook page to be sure reservations were not required - and neither page said they were. The photos on the reviewshow the restaurant 25 minutes after our arrival - with a still empty restaurant. We elected to leave the restaurant as opposedto staying and paying for a meal at that point. Given the high rate of Covid in January 2022, it was also very concerning thatinstead of spreading patrons out, they had over half of the guests shoulder to shoulder at the bar. The bartender was fantasticduring our visit and the drinks were very high quality - which is what warranted the two stars on this review. Read more
My wife and I had dinner here the other night, we are from out of state and we will happily come back sometime and refer others... to dine here. Our food, drinks and dessert was incredible, the restaurant was beautiful and the staff were so friendly andhelpful. We really enjoyed our evening there. The owner made us feel so welcome and the bartender Maddie took great care of usand brought us the most delicious drinks that perfectly fit our style! ?????????? Read more
One of the best Italian dinner I had in a while. Or probably even the best. It was that good. Our waiter Mark was really kind... and gave us good suggestions for what to order. And everything we ordered was really good. We had calamari for appetizer,lasagna with bolognese sauce and grilled chicken with mashed potatoes and broccoli. For dessert, we had cannoli. The warm appleManhattan drink would definitely warm you up in this cold. Read more
Fantastic Italian restaurant. Great drink menu, food is outstanding service is very good, price is right on. The only thing I... would change is the bread they serve, they could do much better here. Other than that will definitely be coming back often. Read more
First time trying this quaint restaurant in Athens. Definitely recommend reservations due to size but the food was one the best... Italian dinners I've had in a long time. The rigatoni alla vodka was perfect with a nice kick of spice. Great selection of wineand the dinner ended with a perfect slice of lemon mascrapone with raspberry drizzle. Tartness of raspberry drizzle pairedperfectly. I definitely recommend everyone to try this Italian restaurant. We will definitely visit again soon. Read more
