11/02/2025: I'm posting a new review because the management has changed.
ENVIRONMENT: The small place has been renovated with small changes, in my opinion not all of which are improvements. The beautiful white and blue decorated ceramic tiles - which immediately looked like Greece - were removed and replaced until they wrapped two entire walls with small and generic wisteria-colored tiles. The rest of the walls were painted a sort of sage green color. It's an unusual color combination for a place that calls itself "Mediterranean eating" (maybe Provence?). The idea of putting the menu on the structure hanging above the counter is good. The logo was also just changed and I personally liked it better before, with the beautiful rolling pin that reminded everyone that the pita is handmade.
FOOD: The chicken is more tender and tastier, as they now use the eyebrows and not the breast. The pita, which in my opinion is the most important element, is thinner, but it is the weak point of the new management. I imagine it takes years of experience to perfect, but the one I was served was pale in color, not very firm and kept falling apart. I also recommend a little more attention to detail: the onion that is put raw instead of white and chopped coarsely is more digestible if chosen purple and finely chopped with a mandolin. The beetroot sauce was also less smooth than I remember.
I hope that this can only be an inspiration for the very young new owners to do better, and not a sterile criticism. I am curious to try the Chinese street food that will be introduced soon, hoping however that the strong Greek and Mediterranean identity of the place, which has made it so well known and loved in the Oltrarno area, will not be lost.
Good luck and congratulations on the excellent start!
11/02/2025: Small but welcoming, this place is ideal for those who love authentic Greek cuisine! The pitta bread is homemade, and the result is really excellent, with a homemade taste that makes the difference. The same goes for the other ingredients at an excellent quality-price ratio!
Don't miss the sauces and the Cypriot Halloumi cheese, a real gem that is not easy to find elsewhere. The service is fast and kind, perfect for a takeaway lunch or dinner. Highly recommended!
