Orizontes Lycabettus

Orizontes Lycabettus Review

Have a seat on the terrace atop Mt. Lycabettus: the Acropolis glitters below, and, beyond, Athens unfolds like a map out to the Saronic gulf. It's tough to compete with such a view, although this mostly seafood restaurant has a decent kitchen and better than decent service.Best bets include the Mille-feuille of smoked trout with small Mikromani artichokes and fresh tartar sauce, and the Red mullets Escabeche with cherry tomatoes and thyme on a layer of summer vegetables. Some meat dishes, like the Bull fillets peppered with fresh rucola and a dust of parmesan, are also available. For dessert, try a modernised version of traditional Kataifi rolls, with bougatsa cream and kaimaki ice cream.Remember that no road goes this high: the restaurant is reached by cable car (the ticket price of €6 is deductible from your restaurant bill).
