The greco's project, Greek restaurant in Syntagma, Greece
The Greco's Project is a restaurant in central Athens, near Ermou Street, that serves traditional Greek recipes in a modern setting. It operates across three separate dining spaces, all under the same concept, offering meat dishes, fresh salads, and vegetarian options.
The restaurant started on Mitropoleos Street before expanding to Monastiraki Square and later establishing locations on Ermou and Evagelistrias Streets. This path through central Athens followed the growth of the operation over the years.
The menu draws from recipes across different parts of Greece, including homemade tzatziki, smoked aubergine from Mount Athos, and Cretan dolmades. Eating here gives a direct sense of how regional cooking varies across the country without leaving the city.
The restaurant is open daily from morning through late evening and is easy to reach on foot from the main sights in central Athens. Wheelchair access is limited at some of the locations, so it is worth checking in advance.
Although the three spaces share the same name and concept, each one has its own look and layout. This means a return visit to a different space can feel noticeably different even though the kitchen stays the same.
