I visited Mentirosa early evening after a beach day craving tacos , the place is absolutely beautiful, I live in Mexico and was thrilled to be taken aback for a moment!
The staff is great, very friendly and very helpful, it wasn’t too busy yet so we had time to exchange a few words and they generously gave me informations on the neighborhood.
I hah tacos -of course-, but my very favorite was the mushroom quesadilla, DELICIOUS!
And authentic Valentina spicy sauce, just like home.
While I think the flavors could use a little cilantro and spices to be closer to original Mexican food, I also acknowledge that not everyone can handle the spicy level I’m used too
Gracias mentirosa!
Bendiciones ❤️

Food was not good at all. We expected much more, drinks were fine, but nothing special. Place is small and not that comfortable. I would recommend to skip this place as there are far better places in Athens to visit.

And in addition to owner response, we ordered margaritas, alcoholic ofc, and shoots, check in your system before lying. Also since most of the days in march were rainy, outdoor space was closed and indoor- there were only few tables. Although we made reservation prior, we barely found a place to sit. After visiting South America and trying a lot of Latin cuisine and cocktails I think I am eligible to make judgments about quality of food and drinks. These ones unfortunately didn’t pass standards.

one of those places that gets everything right. great atmosphere, excellent food, and genuinely friendly service. The dishes are creative without trying too hard, and the cocktails are some of the best I’ve had in Athens. Perfect for a relaxed dinner that still feels special. Highly recommend.

So damn good! The tacos are delicious and the drinks were perfect. This is the BEST Mexican spot in Athens. Great selection of mezcal and all the margaritas you can imagine. 5 stars is not enough.

I went out to eat here last week with my girlfriend. The music was amazing and the vibe was very nice. It was raining so we ate inside but that just added something extra. The food was good and the service was very good. Highly recommend.

We had a great experience here after a day of exploring Athens. The restaurant itself is tucked away and has a beautiful atmosphere and the food and service was great! Our highlights were the pescado taco and the Al Pastor quesadilla.

Amazing atmosphere in a tucked away courtyard. We were staying nearby and strolled buzz. The cocktails were strong and the tacos impressive. The very best friendly service too. Definitely one to not miss.

Very inviting atmosphere and nicely styled place. The drinks are amazing and the food is too. Panagiotis makes some great drinks, try the spicy paloma. For food I had some tacos and elote I was quite pleased with the food and service

They actually warned us at the door. For those who don’t know, “Mentirosa” is Spanish for “Liar,” and that is exactly what this experience was.

​To give credit where it is due, the cocktails were decent and the music was the highlight with an amazing playlist. But the food? Just terrible.

​It is hard to trust a place claiming “authentic” Mexican cuisine when they can’t even spell “quesadilla” correctly on the menu. The “Al Pastor” was the biggest lie of all. Instead of shaved spit-roasted pork, it was dry, mushy meat that tasted like old, badly reheated chili con carne dolloped onto the plate. To make it worse, the tacos were served on wheat tortillas instead of corn.

​The menu promises real flavors, but the kitchen serves up a complete fabrication. Don’t believe the hype.

If you want a good drink and good music, do visit. If you want good food, go somewhere else.

I wanted to like this place but sadly they did not deliver. Suffering from what appears to be shrinkflation, you will need to order substantially more than expected to feel satisfied. Furthermore, having a small menu implies freshness and high quality food. The reality was on the Saturday night we visited, the lamb was very dry and the bread of one of the tacos we had was not even toasted, it felt and tasted like a fajita straight out of the bag from a supermarket. It should also be mentioned that the picture from another reviewer that shows tacos stacked with filling cannot be further from the truth.

Elote is supposed to be grilled, but the corn was soggy, like corn on the cob boiled much earlier, perhaps not on the same day. And for the price to get one corn on the cob cut in 2 pieces is borderline offensive. At the laiki agora you can buy 4 whole corn on the cobs for €2, and that’s retail. The garnish is just a sprinkling of ingredients, so really, the price tag is not justified.

The cocktails were good, tasty with a wide variety. But the size relative to the price of the cocktails makes you feel kind of like you’re being robbed.

Spice levels are pretty much nonexistent, at least offer a variety of spicy sauces for those looking to add a little more heat to their dish. The cocktails are spicier than the food.

The vibe is good, the music on point, so if you’re looking for somewhere for a quick drink and a small bite then this would be a good option. Otherwise, I would recommend you spend your money elsewhere.

This meal came to 120€ for two people, the price includes 6 cocktails.
