A family run restaurant, with happy owners: Andreas & Dumitra. Traditional dishes with local ingredients: cheese, vegetale, fish, olive etc. The bill? Only 120 euro for 6 hungry people, including the beverages. The desert was on the house. Best price/quality ratio one can get în Thessaloniki.

Was in thessaloniki Greece for the World Food Travel Assoc Foodtrexx Summit and having tried most of the local street food, decided to try the local seafood cuisine, Fruitti Di Mare. First came the homemade seafood soup. It was without a doubt cooked from the fish bones and different types of fish pieces, potatoes, celeriac and local vine leaf. Deliciously homemade. The beer battered sardines was a taste of local fishermen energy, mussels although small was oh so soft tasty at the heart from the local wine that it was cooked in, salad, sea bream was a little small but texture remained fresh, but the highlight has to be the grilled fresh octopus, it was heavenly and everything expected from Greek seafood cuisine. That's not all, we had pineapple cream and coconut ice cream which I find it refreshing. Not forgetting the beautiful experience of the soft morning sun, cold wind that drifts across the open area next to the 500 yrs old turkish bath monument and sitting by the small dainty road that cars run through, this was truly a remarkable experience. Coupled w the friendly service by a lady called Freedom, I will take home a wonderful memory.thank you very much!

Our hotel recommended the Grada Nuevo for good seafood. It is located in a busy restaurant precinct, where there's plenty of options. The restaurant looks attractive with a modern, trendy setting and professionally dressed staff, who welcome you in. Our party of 4 chose 2 X salmon, 1 X cod, and 1 X groper. All dishes were well presented and perfectly cooked ; the bread basket we got with it had a good selection of crunchy rolls. Together with a nice bottle of white the bill came to 110 Euro. We had a good night, and a wonderful meal ; we considered it fair value and we came back the night after for more.

This restaurant was the best we visited in Greece. Everything was delicious: the atmosphere, the food, the wine and the service. The prices are reasonably high. Very recommended! They have two restaurants and we tried both - the one inside Thessaloniki and the one out of the city, which is even better.

We had lunch in this restaurant. We liked the choice of more unusual dishes e.g Cretan pies. the seafood platter for two was lovely and fresh and plentiful. The service was excellent and the meal good value. The location is a characterful alley with other restaurants. Would definitely recommend.

We went to this restaurant based on reviews and have to say we were all very disappointed. The service is terrible and the waiters in a couple of incidents quite rude. The starters and mains come to the table at different times. Some of us had our mains before we had finished the starter. The food itself was average to say the least and extremely salty. There are so many other restaurants which are so much better and friendlier. Iâd give this one a miss.

My friend and I had dinner here last night and it was fantastic. I started with grilled aubergine which melted in the mouth and my friend had cheese with honey and nuts which was not only beautifully presented but tasted great. I then had the grilled squid stuffed with cheese and herbs and I can honestly say it was the tastiest squid Iâve had. My friend had sausage souvlaki which was also v good. We had a reasonably priced bottle of Greek white wine which was perfect. The owner was really friendly and chatty gave us free lemon retsina. We were too full for desert! Would highly recommend. Great service and very reasonably priced - two courses and wine for 43â¬. ÎÏ ÏαÏιÏÏοÏμε θεÏμά για Ïην Ï ÏÎÏοÏα ÏÎ±Ï Î»Ïγια! Îα ÏαÏοÏμε να ÏÎ±Ï Î¾Î±Î½Î±Î´Î¿Ïμε!

This is by far one of the best down-to-earth culinary experiences in Thessaloniki and one of the places I come back to visit regularly. Food that is made with love and, without trying to show-off, displays how simple dishes can make your taste buds happy. The menu has a wide variety of choices, long enough to puzzle your head when ordering, but narrow enough so that everything you try is going to be prepared to perfection. The stuffed vine leaves are amazing as well as the selection of the various greek cheeses, but that is just a couple of the variety of starters that will get your stomach going. Being a fish eater I would obviously suggest to ask Chris, the owner, to tell you what fresh fish he has for the day and just go for it! If you opt for meat then there is a good selection as well as traditional Greek vegetarian options (ladera) and some plates of the day (i.e. Cretan homemade pasta). The salads are fresh and well balanced. Overall the tasting experience is exceptional and there are nice choices for wines and spirits (raki, ouzo, tsipouro). The prices are great for the quality of the food and the service. Every time we visit they always go the extra-mile to please us. I definitely recommend visiting once. Then you will become a regular!
