One of the most famous and most eaten Greek food is souvlaki. It is usually beef, lamb or pork meat that is served on a round pita bread with lettuce, tomato, onions, and tzatziki. That is if you eat it in a souvlaki shop. If you want take-out the pita bread is rolled. You take it with you in packed in wax paper which keeps it all together and eat it while walking. Souvlaki is to Greece what the hamburger is to the US.
There are a lot of good souvlaki shops in Athens especially on Mitropoleos street, very close to Monastiraki square. The best in my opinion is O Thanasis. The place always is very busy and waiters are shouting orders but service is very friendly and you do not have to wait long. They also serve the best Tzatziki I have ever tasted. Tzatziki is a yogurt sause with cucumber and a lot of garlic, so much it will bite your tongue. You can enjoy your souvlaki in the shop or take it with you. Souvlaki is cheap. When you are looking for a quick meal, that is what you or your kids need.

Great kebabs (gyros) and wow the peppers are hot! Not a very extensive menu but quality food at a good price. Always seemed to be busy - full of locals that must be a good sign, but a menu in English was found for us , it's an old one though the prices have risen just a little.

This is perhaps the most famous restaurant , and one of the oldest in athens. It is situated in the souvlaki triangle , as we call it , just outside monastiraki metro station. It serves kebab portions , don't you dare not choosing it . It may seem a bit touristic , thing that i don't like , but the food is excellent. If you can't find a table there , try also (Bairaktaris and Savvas) , they are equally good.

Simply outstanding. When you are walking through the Monastiraki area, this will be the outdoor tables that are packed, while all around is empty. If you are looking for the name, make sure you translate to Greek, as we walked past it 3 times, before we just sat down at the one busy restaurant and realized we made it. Do not miss this place for one of your lunch stops. Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveAddress: Monastiraki Square

The food here is cheap and the menu is basically two or three things. But it tastes good! The atmosphere leaves a little to be desired, the lights are too bright, and the decorating is just awful. But what do you want for 1,50 per person to eat? Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveAddress: Monastiraki Square
