  • Most tourists just bypass Piraeus as they are heading from Athens centre to the port to pick up the boats to the islands. Well if you have the time and you feel hungry enough, just ignore the various fast food options near to the port and allow yourself a better joy for your palate.
    Few minutes walk from the port (depending where your boat sails from), at the very centre of Piraeus, just next to Municipal Theater in a pedestrian street you'll find this newcomer in the dining scene of Piraeus. The sign is in greek script only so you need to ask. So as you can imagine it's a non tourist trap but mainly for locals wishing good food.
    I tried it as I got good recommendations from my sister and a friend. Indeed there is a large variety of meze (starters) and mains as well, but I would highly advice you to stick on meze only in order to enjoy several tastes. Excellent greek cuisine, well cooked food. There is option to have meal outside if the weather is fine. My spanish friends were very happy about their culinary experience there (if you add that prices were affordable, 54euros for 4 people)
    Luckily the menu is in english as well!

    Any meze was great, but I advice you to go for :"Kalogeros", "Fava", "Chiotiki" turkey, Sarmadakia

    OK For A Beer
    by johngayton
    This place is great to stop and have a beer, situated on the main block of ferry offices on the square in the dock. I had dropped into Piraeus the evening before leaving for the Islands to check out what looked like the best place to buy my ferry tickets and had stopped here for a quick beer and found the service friendly with a mix of travellers and dock workers and of course the inevitable "Looky-Looky" guys. Arriving the following day to buy my tickets for that evening's boat I stopped again for a beer and was greeted by the owner like some long lost son as he insisted on showing me the menu. Anyway, tickets bought, I thought I'd give it a shot for lunch and had the day's special - chicken in some sort of sauce, stuffed pepper and roasted aubergine. I don't think I've ever been subjected to so much grease in all my life, I don't mind a bit of oil, so long as it's good oil, but this was YUK, greasy tasteless stodge and at about 11 euros including the bread (which was OK) didn't even have the redeeming feature of being cheap!

    Alpha Beer - 2.50 per large bottle!!

    Waterfront Seafood Restaurants: In Search Of Fish on a Sunday!

    We had been destined for a small fish restaurant called Margaro's located in the city proper, but it being Sunday night we found it closed and so hailed a taxi back down to the waterfront, to what I assume is the Leoforos Poseidonos, to search out a fish restaurant there.

    Here we found a trio of very similar seafood tavernas with terraces facing onto the main road overlooking the night-time bay, chose one at random, and sat and had a pleasant late dinner watching the guys from the restaurants touting for business on a quiet Sunday - even to the extent of throwing themselves in front of passing cars!!

    Between us we just ate simply - sardines, prawns in tomato sauce topped with cheese, bread and salad and of course the obligatory beer (or two ). With a bill around the 20 euro mark this was just the job!

    I have brought friends and colleagues here to impress them and give them a luxurious dinner with the waiters serving you the best way, everything being classy and the cuisine gourmet. And probably I will do it again because this is an impressive place to dine.

    But:
    *Your table might be EXACTLY beside the water, but the water of the marina does not look or smell good on a summer night. Floating plastic bottles is not my best - so ask for a table NOT exactly near the water.

    *The portions are "invisible" in some cases.

    *The prices used to be much more "logical" some years ago - I considered the cost of my last visit bigger than I would think it was worth.

    Good seafood.
