Victoria Kyriakopoulos

"Venture into the streets of Plaka, passing by the Roman Agora and the Turkish Baths, before heading to the Monastiraki to initiate yourself with a souvlaki at Thanasis."

Ailee Petrovic

"The most beautiful Greek salad ever."

Ben Preston

"Start your meal off with a Greek Salad and a plate of Tzatziki. The Greek salad, tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, onion, olives, a block of feta cheese, all dressed with olive oil, is the perfect introduction to Greece."

Celia Sin-Tien Cheng

"I’d recommend ordering the souvlaki on pita with fresh onions and tzatziki (yogurt and garlic sauce), best accompanied by a Mythos (Greek beer) and some fries."

GuidePal

"Popular plate: Souvlaki aside, the owner makes his tzatziki at home, and you’ll find yourself dunking every available bite into the cucumber-yoghurt dip."

GreekGuide

"Enjoy the famous (since 1994) kebab or juicy souvlaki with fresh Greek salad, cool tzatziki and chips on the side."

Alexander Bachuwa

"As a Gyropean, I will say that O Thanasis had the best tzatziki and delicious gyro meat."

Milou van Roon

"Thanasis - the best souvlaki in Athens."

Gerard Bao

"The verdict — it’s the first I’ve ever had it on a skewer and I thought it was good. In keeping with tradition, we ordered fries (to stuff in the Souvlaki) and a Greek salad. Wash it down with a Mythos beer and that’s what I call a blog worthy lunch!"

Vinna Baptist

"Thanasis is THE place to have your experience of souvlaki in Athens."
