Ouzeri Tou Laki, Athens, Greece – Reviews, Ratings, Tips and Why …
Reviews
Kypseli, Petralona, Nikaia.. still hold strong in these small family businesses, built around sharing food with your parea (friends)… Small plates, amazing flavors, ouzo or tsipouro, and decor inspired by the menu.
In this spot, the love of the sea, the seafarer (naftoi), mermaids, boats, anchors, shells, are on full display… You can practically smell the sea, even though the Ouzerie is bam-smack in the middle of the city with cement all around.
Fresh seafood arrive daily from the waters around Athens (to view catch of the day, you can see the daily post on the Facebook page and Insta of the restaurant); There are also several vegetarian/ vegan options for people who do not eat fish (or have an allergy)
This Ouzerie of Lakis is a few steps away from Victoria station, and a great stop to recharge after a long walk, and day shopping.
A slice of athenian food history
Of course, the food mastermind behind this spot is called George… Lakis was his Dad.
George is a humble man, and I stopped to talk to him on leaving to say thank you for an amazing meal.
We ended up in deep discussion.
George’s dream is to continue to save the dying food art form of the Ouzerie in Athens. Ae I left the shop, he lamented, that these small eateries are slowly disappearing… In the ever changing foodscene of Athens, swallowed up by other fashions.
So how about we save them?
Visit them more often, and find a spot for them in our daily habbits.
Trends are great, however, preserving our food history is also vital.
After all, who are we as Greeks without our parea, arguing politics over snacks and flavors? We have been doing it for thousands of years.. so let’s toast to a few thousand more …
The menu is quite innovative with fresh fish and brave flavours. Nothing will leave you still.
Price is very decent too.
I recommend the stuffed squid with tomato and feta cheese as well as the octopus ok any kind.
Be aware that only some plates of the menu are available according to the products so ask first what’s in for the day!
All dishes were extremely fresh and delicious. Grilled + Fried will be your best combo !
Hope to revisit this place again !
