Join the queue at Kalamakia O Elvis, the open-grill souvlaki stop near Monastiraki Square. Grab skewers of smoky lamb or pork and eat them on a stool among the crowd.
Full description
Kalamakia O Elvis is a budget-friendly grill a short walk from Monastiraki Square, where skewers are cooked on an open fire and served in a lively, stand-and-eat setting. Reviewers single out the lamb for its smoky char and tenderness, with pork also praised, and note the long lines that form outside.

Reviews
Fantastic souvlaki restaurant not far from Monastiraki Square. The price is great and the meat was juicy and tender, cooked on an open grill. There are a few stools and tables available, but I guess it's more of a takeout place. Service was quick and friendly. Highly recommended.
