64 Ioánnou DrosopoúlouOne of our absolute favorite restaurants in downtown Athens. Near the Acropolis Museum, but a bit hidden. It serves a modern take on Greek cuisine from an area called Mani near Sparta. Delicious and worth the higher prices for a special night out.

A terrific award-winning museum featuring the contents of the Parthenon. We go often because we love the views, the design (by architect Bernard Tschumi), the display philosophy (statues interspersed among visitors in a market place like manner) and the cafe/restaurant has good food (and the view makes the slow service tolerable).
