"Located in the heart of the peaceful Chalandri district, Botrini's offers an exciting gastronomic experience. Here, not one but two chefs are in the kitchen, each with his own style and personality. Ettore Botrini, a Greek-Italian who has been involved in haute cuisine for over 40 years, is very proud of his Corfu origins." - The MICHELIN Guide

"A modern, elegant restaurant occupying a former school in the up-and-coming Chalandri district and located slightly away from the city’s tourist hotspots. The cheery entrance and intimate tree-shaded terrace come as a pleasant surprise. Here, half-Greek, half-Italian chef Ettore Botrini offers two extensive tasting menus which showcase creative Mediterranean-focused cuisine with constant references to the two countries that are part of his DNA. He always works with locally sourced ingredients and creates several dishes with a specific connection to the island of Corfu, where he spent his childhood. To elevate the gastronomic experience even further, why not dine at the exclusive chef’s table, with seats for just four guests?" - Michelin Inspector

"A converted school in a quiet suburb—now a passionately run restaurant with an ultra-modern interior, a sleek glass-fronted kitchen and verdant terraces. Appealing modern menus feature local produce in creative, attractively presented dishes. Many of the oils, salamis and wines are produced by the family." - The MICHELIN Guide

An overall amazing experience. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The Chef’s table menu (including a few extra courses) is definitely worth it. Very positive to note that most ingredients are Greek. Many of these ingredients act as the main point of a dish, appearing in them in many forms. The presentation of all dishes was amazing. It would be nice however, if there was a recommendation on how to eat some of the dishes, to get the best tasting experience. Seeing the kitchen staff prepare each dish is captivating. However, the atmosphere surrounding the Chef’s table should be improved.

This Michelin-starred restaurant offers set menus featuring 10 to 14 dishes. The cuisine reflects the chef's Greek and Italian heritage. A fine selection of Greek, Italian, and French wines is available. The chef is a celebrity with numerous establishments in Attica. The price is quite reasonable for such a high level of gastronomy.

Greek tradition in perfect harmony with modern cuisine. Every course comes with a story which you take with you at the end of the dining. I could place this restaurant easily at the top 3 of all the restaurants we’ve visited so far. Everything made is perfection! My personal highlight, the melomakarono dessert, probably the best dessert I’ve ever tasted. This is a truly unique experience that everyone should try when in Athens. Will definitely visit again!

It's a lovely place. It is expensive but worth trying. Michelin star service is followed by fantastic food. I do recommend wine pairing

Loved the food, service and the ambience. We were the first to arrive, great welcome to the restaurant with a cold glass of Greek sparkling wine. Servers were very friendly and easy to talk to. Every course had a story and surprises which was enjoyable. I have seen Michelin restaurants to bread in single serving size, someone actually cutting a loaf with a great crust in front of the table was awesome. Wine pairing was mostly spot on except for a couple of pairings which felt a bit off (but could be a personal preference). Desserts were unbelievable and enjoyable. At the end the stories were made into a book in front of us which was a nice surprise. Overall a wonderful experience like walking through an art gallery, worth cherishing. Highly recommend Botrini’s if you’re in Athens. It is little away from the city center but easily accessible via metro and a taxi.

Overall an absolutely stunning menu with a beautiful display. Seafood heavy with a strong focus on raw seafood which may have been a little too much for my friend and I . The only dish that we struggled with was the raw red prawns that lack some sort of added texture with it and seasoning. I would say the prices were quite high but I guess expected for a restaurant of this calibre. Would have been nice to have been given a choice of sitting inside the restaurant. Loved the story line with every dish..it was a thoughtful touch as it takes us on a journey understanding the chef's dishes.

A huge range of courses included in the menu and every dish has its own story that makes it fun and interactive. Saying that service is excellent is an understatement. The wine is outstanding. Astonishing.

It was an exceptional experience! Food and wine pairing was incredible!!! I found flavors unknown to me til now. Service was great and really helped in the overall experience. 5 stars for the atmosphere though the extensive heatwave as we were sitting outside.
