5 top spots for quality food a stone’s throw from Athens

The Greeks really do have a penchant for delicious food

Newsroom March 23 01:18

With springtime gradually approaching (although the persistent chilly weather is not helping), the prospect of short excursions to destinations near Athens is becoming increasingly tempting.

An outing cannot be considered complete without a good meal. We took a look around various areas close to Athens and present five eateries we really liked, both for meat and fish-based dishes.

Eviva
At Vohaiko in the Corinth region, west of Athens, the taverna Eviva was founded by two siblings, the Mavronasios brothers. It offers superb food and friendly service amid a hospitable environment. The dining area is spacious and well designed, while the outdoor space, picturesque and lush, promises a cool environment once temperatures begin to rise.

Meat cut experimentation for nearly four years developed Eviva from a traditional taverna to a high-end eatery offering premium cuts, exquisite grilling, as well as a series of creative dishes, including spinach salad with fresh spinach, onion, dill, feta, and mustard sauce with honey.
