Frommer's Review
Greeks call this kind of food paradisiako (traditional), but paradisiacal is just as good a description. This reasonably priced food is fit for the gods: delicious fluffy vegetable croquettes, a unique eggplant salad, and hauntingly tender lamb in egg-lemon sauce. Vlassis is so popular with Athenians that it doesn't need even a discreet sign to announce its presence -- which is in an old mansion around the corner from the American Embassy on hard-to-find Paster. Figure the price of a taxi (no more than 10€/$13) into your meal tab, although you may feel so giddy with delight after eating that you won't mind the half-hour walk back to Syntagma.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
