Discover Ama Lachei, a former school turned garden restaurant where locals and visitors share the courtyard. Order a spread of modern Greek meze and mains and linger under the open sky.

📖

Full description

Ama Lachei serves modern Greek dishes and meze platters in a spacious site that was once a school, with much of the seating in a breezy garden courtyard. Reviewers note that locals eat here alongside visitors, which dispels any tourist-trap suspicion, and they praise the quick, friendly service and dishes such as the liver.

It opens through the day and into late evening, so it works for a long lunch or a relaxed dinner. The place fills early, and guests are asked to wait to be seated rather than choosing their own table.

Best food I've had in Athens! Got the chicken souvlaki and mashed yellow peas with pickled veggies and capers and both dishes were impeccable and delicious. Coupled the meal with a Greek beer on draft and it made the perfect early dinner! Good service though it can take awhile to get your food since they serve it…
