If you want sth fancy then it's not for you.

Very great pleace, the service was really kind, the food was really delicious and the atmosphere was amazing. Traditional greek food for good price. We had a really good time here, I recommend to try it if you stay in Athén and looking for excellent sea food.

We arrived in Athens and my friend was on the hunt for fish. We went for dinner and had the bream and red mullet, which was amazing. We had a funny conversation with the waiter to find out if the red mullet was “fishy or meaty”!. We went back today for lunch where we tried the shrimp and “little shoes”; another amazing meal. Met Aris himself. Absolutely lovely restaurant.

This restaurant felt like heaven in a crowded place. The waiters were nice and helpful. I recommend this restaurant particularly for the food. The meat of my kebab was tender, juicy and tasteful. If you ever have the occasion to come here, go for it.

A true hidden gem in the heart of Athens Taverna Aris is one of those rare places that instantly transports you into a scene from a Greek film. Tucked away in a side passage of the central market, it’s not just a tourist stop – it’s where locals come to enjoy their lunch, sip ouzo, and share stories over generous plates of traditional Greek food. The atmosphere is incredibly authentic: Greeks gather around tables, laughing and talking, while the kitchen serves up classic home-style dishes made with ultra-fresh fish and meat straight from the nearby market. The portions are large, the prices more than fair, and everything tastes honest, rustic, and full of soul. If you’re looking for a genuine, unpolished Greek dining experience in Athens – this is it. Highly recommended.
