Frommer's Review
A little on the kitsch side (columns, torches, and waitresses in togas) but a brilliant idea nonetheless. With recipes from ancient Greece (recorded by the poet Archestratos) this is your one chance to dine like the ancients did. Offerings include cuttlefish in ink with pine nuts, wild-boar cutlets, goat leg with mashed vegetables, and pork with prunes and thyme, among other such delicious fare. Just remember: You may use a spoon and a knife but no fork(!) -- ancient Greeks did not use them. Equally adored by locals, foodies, and tourists alike, evenings here make for a unique dining experience.
