It is a classic stop on Monastiraki sq for the famous kebab with the secret recipe. Pita,meat,tomato,parsley,onion. You can take one (or 2!) to go or sit if you are lucky to find a table. Opens early.Upvoted Feb 22
Neil RobertsonDecember 29, 2012The Thanasis kebab is a MUST. Delicious and very popular with the locals which is great. You can tackle one each for sure and it's pretty reasonable prices.
Velvet LerangeFebruary 3, 2017One of the best places in Athens/Monastiraki to get pita souvlaki. Affordable, delicious and juicy. Either sit outside at one of the tables or grab it to go and eat it in the centre of Monastiraki.
Gorkem OzMay 2, 2016Great value! Beer €2,80. Thanasis kebab €8. Very tasty. The jokes of the maestro is for free:)
Virginia GriveaAugust 23, 2014Believe me,as a Greek who has eatten tons of soyvlaki in my life this is by no means the best kebab in town.Avoid both Thanasis and Bairaktaris and go spend your money somewhere else
Lucy XuNovember 13, 2017Great spot for dinner in Monastiraki. Get the gyro, to stay or to go!

Wael MaatoukAugust 16, 2016A very classic street restaurant. Excellent Kebabs whether sandwich (2 euros) or plate with some salad or the famous yoghurt and tomato sauce.. Not that expensive with very quick service.
Zack WilliamsOctober 17, 2020Very scenic square, the place has outdoor seats. Traditional style kebaps we tried the special and traditional, very yummy!
Chris ZotosOctober 14, 2018Your typical touristy Souvlaki place right in the heart of Athens. Most people that visit it, do so just for the massive portion of Giaourtlou.
Vicki KolovouFebruary 3, 2016Typical tourist place that's always worth visiting even by locals. It's all about kebab.
Digital AdvisorSeptember 6, 2018Top value for money in Athens. And one of the best souvlaki. My favorite: giaourtlou and spicy peppers
Stephen GarrettFebruary 27, 2017Good basic inexpensive Greek food. Menu focused on kebabs & gyros. Good service and good location (outside or next to window) to watch the world go by.
UhOh GiaFebruary 5, 2015A quite famous place in Athens, the food is absolutely good and the staff is very friendly. The portions are huge so make sure you're hungry!
Büşra SertalpJanuary 11, 2015Delicious souvlaki, great tzatziki. Greek beers and ouzo served as well. Located in the very city center, great for a lunch stop!
The only place where we eat Kebab in Athens. Best served with Tzatziki (Yoghurt with cucumber & garlic dip) & Kafteres Piperies (Hot Green Peppers) if you're up to spicy food.
Emel BayraktarJanuary 10, 2016One of the restaurants recommended for souvlaki. Very crowded but fast. Food is delicious, prices are reasonable.
Tiff TingAugust 16, 2016Thanasis kebab comes out quick, tastes great, and fills you up, all for €8.60!
Kristina SJanuary 12, 2020Amazing place! This is one of the best gyro place in Athens! Great food and customer service. I completely recommend.
Don PetersJune 5, 2018The location is perfect for people watching and the staff is fun. I had the mixed gyro platter. Nothing special about it.
Emilio COctober 9, 2018Get the Gyro sandwich. It's not on the physical menu, but they sell them for so much cheaper than the platter.
Cs BalazsMarch 15, 2015Lot of people say for tourist that this is the best place. Don't belive them it is NOT! It is not bad, but you can easily find much better souvlaki in Athens!!
Antoxa YaApril 30, 2017Delicious food at reasonable price. Quick and friendly service. The Thanasis Kebap in Yoghurt was great!
Gino G.September 2, 2018Spicy chili peppers are spicy and freshly roasted. Seasoned well. The chicken souvlaki is all white meat and tastes great!
Best kebab in Athens! You have to go there, even if it's a bit touristic! But very nice food and no touristic prices!
Nikos KapsomenakisDecember 23, 2018All time classic kebab. If you visit Athens center you have to came and taste
DianeJuly 13, 2013Best gyros so far in town. Tip: get take away and the double kebab souvlaki gyros all for 3.2 euros.
Si belleOctober 29, 2012Yogurt souvlaki is great. But one is too much for one person. But if you eat a take away souvlaki, one wouldn't be enough. Delicious.
Faisal .September 9, 2017I love it, tasty and good services. It is very crowded but yet food is good 👌
Dan MillardOctober 18, 2016Good souvlaki and not bad value considering the location... also had good Greek coffee and Greek salad...
Jennie KSeptember 13, 2014Frequented by locals looking for good kebab, even if the neighbourhood is full of tourists. Have the γιαουρτλου kebab.
Ayşin Ş. ErimAugust 4, 2013If u wanna try souvlaki-tzatziki, u are in correct place! Good prise with best taste&service ;)
Panos AskiApril 26, 2015Better than Savvas which is opposite the square but still medium quality food. It's just a surprise how many people eat at this place. Maybe location...
Paul CSeptember 8, 2013An old time classic Greek kebab taverna everyone has to visit at least once in a lifetime.
Alberto FarinaJuly 13, 2010Athen's best and longer-time established place for kebab/souvlakia... great quality, low prices... if you are around monastiraki and looking for food you can't get any better
