Fodor's Review:

With its airy neoclassical courtyard—paved with original painted tiles, canopied by huge date palms, and illuminated by colored lanterns—Balthazar truly feels like an oasis in the middle of Athens. This bar-restaurant attracts members of the art, media, and beautiful-people crowds. Come for dinner; stay to mingle as the DJ picks up the beat. Talented young chef Yiorgos Tsiktsiras keeps the quality and flavor high on the up-to-the-minute menu, with prices to match. Try the lime and avocado seviche or any one of the creative salads, then salmon with mango salsa, finishing off with homemade grape sorbet.

Keep in mind: Reservations essential.
