In short
Greek classics since 1975 in Makrygianni, with a rooftop terrace facing the floodlit Acropolis. Couples come for dinner with the view, often after a performance at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus. It is closed on Mondays.
Strofi is a traditional Greek restaurant at Rovertou Galli 25 in Makrygianni, Athens, with a rooftop terrace that faces the Acropolis. It has served Greek classics since 1975. It suits couples and visitors who want a view of the floodlit Parthenon with dinner, perhaps after a performance at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus nearby. Akropoli metro station on line 2 is about ten minutes away on foot.
Booking a terrace table facing the Acropolis
Yes, if you book the right table. The roof terrace looks straight across to the Acropolis, and after dark, when the monument is lit, the view is the main event of the meal. Ask for a terrace view table when you reserve, ideally at sunset, so you see the hill change from daylight to its evening lighting. There is also an indoor room. The terrace can turn cool in spring and autumn evenings, so bring a light layer.
Roast lamb, vine leaves and taverna classics
The menu keeps to Greek taverna classics: roast lamb with rosemary, lamb baked in parchment, stuffed vine leaves and other traditional dishes. Prices are higher than at a neighbourhood taverna, reflecting the location, and sit in the upper middle range for Athens.
Dionysiou Areopagitou, the pedestrian street below the Acropolis, makes a good evening walk after the meal.
