Aspro Piato (White Plate)
Aspro-Piato isn’t a club-restaurant per se but there’s music, the sea, and a reputation for the best food, with an emphasis on its meat menu. Typically, live Greek music is played. It moves from its Halandri winter location to Glyfada by the sea at the same venue where Cataralla was formerly located.
