This is a place which strongly reminds us of an island, on the picturesque pedestrian Aiolou Street, in the center of Athens. With blue and white as dominant colours, everything in Tylixto, from its decor to its dishes support its traditional Greek character. Delicious wraps with traditional Greek pita, Arabic bread and sandwich, fresh cut fries, main dishes and fresh salads have as common denominator the excellent taste, the quality, the fresh, handmade, homemade ingredients, the Greek products and of course the special care in their preparation! Here we enjoy traditional souvlaki with homemade tomato sauce, fresh cut fried potatoes, handmade spreads, the popular Arabic bread wraps, chicken and pork gyro, as well as the fillets, which have become the best seller of the menu! Mon.-Thurs. & Sun. 12:00-01:00, Fri. & Sat. 12:00-03:00.

Started welcoming us to a culinary journey 7 years ago in Pasalimani, where Alexis and Depy decided to introduce to the Athenian crowd traditional flavors from Smyrna taught to them by their ancestors. The result? Nowadays, Barbadimos has 5 stores, prioritizing the respect to the client, the customized service, the excellent trained employees and, most of all, the love and care for this art of food. Famed for its exceptional kebab, it’s the store that revived the authentic old kebab-shops and with this innovation bears the “responsibility”of the trend that was followed up by many. Here you will find authentic Greek cuisine and authentic Greek salad. Better still… the aromas, the spices and the fine ingredients were blended together ideally producing the delicious dishes of the menu. From fluffy pies to fresh salads and main courses, such as slices sujuk, giaourtlou kebab and shish kebab (with pork), as well as skewers and wraps, you will find it hard to make a choice! Daily 12:00-01:00 (the kitchen).
Highlight
The brand new bronze ovens. Pies are prepared there à la minute upon request in front of the customer.
