NATU Restaurant, Mediterranean restaurant in Kifisia Municipality, Greece.
NATU is a restaurant located on the grounds of the Goulandris Natural History Museum in Kifisia, surrounded by fragrant plants and a lake with water lilies. The dining space offers main courses such as fish ceviche and beef steak along with beverages and desserts.
The restaurant was created as part of the Goulandris Museum grounds and developed under the direction of Executive Chef Dimitris Skarmoutsos. Its establishment shows how contemporary dining became integrated with cultural institutions and the natural heritage they protect.
The restaurant blends Mediterranean cooking traditions with modern dining, offering a range of dishes in a space that reflects the surrounding natural world. Visitors experience the connection to the museum's natural history focus through both the menu and the setting.
The restaurant is accessible by walking through the museum grounds and offers outdoor seating with views of the vegetation and water features. Reservations are recommended, especially on weekends, as seating is limited.
Architect Aphrodite Bonatsou designed the space using earth tones and sight lines to cypress and cedar trees that mark the grounds. This deliberate connection between interior and exterior design sets it apart from a typical dining establishment.
