This was a fabulous night out. We were recommended to try this restaurant and it lived up to the hype. The staff was incredible and the food was very enjoyable. Despite it being only a few bites per course, we were absolutely stuffed at the end. We did the wine pairing and enjoyed tasting the local wine selections with each course. Our favorites were the calamari “pasta” and the ceviche with kiwi.

Had the 12 course surprise menu (including the added signature dish) and the Greek wine pairing, and had a blast from start to finish. The dishes were diverse in taste and texture – from light and crisp to heavy, umami rich – all were impressively built with layer upon layer of different tastes merging together. At least my Top 4 restaurant experience.

Just perfect. We have had the opportunity to dine in many nice restaurants over the years. CTC dinner was among the best in its class. Delicious dishes with varied flavors, structures and presentations. Greek wine pairing was an interesting and tasty journey into the Greek wine making and wine culture. Service staff was professional and attentive, and created relaxed atmosphere.

We visited yesterday for our anniversary.
The good:
1. Most of the courses were excellent. Great culinary experience
2. My husband had informed for his dietary restrictions in time and they had prepared really nice courses for him.
3. The music was nice.
The bad:
1. The restaurant felt cold inside and we kept asking to close the door and the windows. They would, for 2 minutes and they’d reopen them again. We felt very uncomfortable with the temperature and even though they assured they’d turn up the heating they didn’t. We had to physically stand up and go shut the door ourselves multiple times. This is unacceptable for Michelin restaurants. Other people were wearing their coats because they were cold too.
2. We arrived at 07.05 and asked for the empty table at the window which we were refused. The justification was we give the table according to booking date. The people who had booked the table came at 21.40. They could have told us you may have it until 21.00 and perhaps that would be ok. Also, nowhere has it been our experience to be punished with the worst table if you book 3 days before. The manager herself had an argument with us. Even though we asked for 2 tables that both were fulfilled after 21.30. Mind you the restaurant was empty when we arrived.
3. We had written in the booking that it was our anniversary – everywhere in the world they surprise us in a way- here absolutely nothing. They didn’t even mention it.
Overall even though the food was great the service didn’t justify the Michelin star distinction.

for a Michelin star restaurant there were a lot of hits and miss. it was overall very cute, but the flavours for the menu were more or less simple. if compared to Soil or Delta, it was neither so much amazing flavours, not techniques. The polenta course looked cool, was super plain. the souvlaki was grrat as concept, but the execution of the “meat” was lacking the meatiness. overall ok, for 185€.
worth trying once.

First – the assistant sommelier Zan was fabulous. Knowledgeable, fun personality, really helpful. We enjoyed the Greek wine flight. Other waiters were good.
Second – Menu is 90% seafood. Overall the food was 30% exceptional (corn soup, squid pasta, beef & tart), 40% excellent and 30% good but a bit plain (souvlaki, dessert medley w chocolate / sponge cake / tart).
Third – seating. There are about 25 tables in the outside courtyard. When we arrived all were empty, except one table had 2 guests. They sat us next to that table. And those two tables were positioned really close together – more than any others in the entire restaurant.
* The first hour of service, there were only three tables with guests in the entire restaurant. The second hour two more tables were seated. It wasn’t busy at all.
Therefore I was left puzzled.
Why??
Why??
Why when there’s so much available space, sit us next to other people, especially this woman who was so loud and irritating.
I asked them to move us before service started and the hostess acted like it was a strange request.
That was a very disappointing start to the dinner. Part of fine dining is the overall dining experience.
It left me shaking my head with wonder….a rookie mistake you would expect from a sidewalk cafe.
So they lose a star for that.

It is a Mischlein restaurant so you can expect good food and they answered my expectations. Although stuff is very kind they can be less annoying and let people to enjoy from the meals without long explanation. This is just my personal opinion.

We had our first experience eating at a Michelin-rated restaurant here in Greece. They offered an 11-course surprise menu with a wine pairing. Each course had a beautiful presentation & the tastes just all came together. Aside from the amazing dishes, the service was fantastic. Each course & wine pairing was explained. This was truly an unforgettable experience!

Better than any fine dining experience I’ve had, better than the much-lauded Daniel in NYC according to my husband… we plan to return every time we are in Athens.

We had our first Michelin-star experience at CTC Urban Gastronomy in Athens, and it was truly memorable. The tasting menu took us on a beautifully curated journey — the flavors were unexpected in the best way, carefully balanced, and executed with precision. Every dish brought something new, and the plating was like art.
Service was professional yet warm, striking that perfect balance between luxury and friendliness. The team made us feel welcome and informed without being overly formal. Each wine pairing enhanced the dish without overpowering it.
There were two points that slightly took away from the otherwise impeccable evening:
1. The aperitif recommended before the meal felt unnecessary and disconnected from the menu. It came across as an upselling tactic, which slightly broke the magic of an otherwise thoughtful dining experience.
2. We were charged for a bottle of sparkling water we never ordered. It was a small amount (€6), and we didn’t bring it up to avoid awkwardness at the end of the evening, but at this level of dining, such things should not happen.
Aside from that, the experience was well worth it. The team clearly works with passion and skill. It’s a place I’d recommend to anyone looking to celebrate something special or just indulge in culinary artistry.
