Athens, Greece may be best known for being the cradle of Western civilization and the birthplace of democracy, but we think the food is the city's most important attraction! Greek food is honestly some of the best you'll ever eat and the Greek capital offers an incredible variety of different places to try. We spent a week in Athens eating all the delicious food it has to offer and we thought we'd share our top 10 restaurants in Athens that we enjoyed the most during our stay here. From mouthwatering Greek meats, to-die-for gyros and pitas, to comforting taverna classics and delicious Greek desserts, the Greek capital has something for everyone!

This is not a definitive Greek culinary guide but simply a reflection of our own experience, but we hope this video can still be useful to you. Local knowledge remains the best knowledge!

Appreciate!
