Food Scene
Mystic Pizza & Pasta
76 Emmanouil Benaki Delicious pizza, pasta and salads! Highly recommend it!
Here you can try the best ice-cream in Athens (in my humble opinion). Nancy my friend and owner learnt how to make gelato in Italy and her kaimaki (a very original Greek flavour - made of Mastic) is to die for. You will find flavoursome sorbets, aromatic vanilla and super chocolatey chocolate mousse! Her prices are very good too! If possible combine your visit with a visit to Cine Paris, a brilliant open air cinema with a view to the Akropolis!!

Its cosy and cute and the food is delicious. Its located in an old neoclassical building so it has an 'air' of Old Athens about it. This is how taverns used to look like in the not so distant past. Fairly priced in my opinion. Unfortunately smoking is permitted so check if its crowded or quiet. Definitely worth a try.
