Mylolithos, Mediterranean restaurant in Panormou, Athens, Greece
Mylolithos is a restaurant and takeaway on Panormou Street in Athens, set inside a former mill building that has been fitted with a contemporary interior. The space has a dining room with indoor and outdoor seating, and a counter for takeaway orders.
The restaurant opened in 2013 inside a former mill building in the Ampelokipi neighborhood of Athens. During renovation, many of the building's original features were kept, including stone elements that are still visible today.
The name Mylolithos comes from the Greek words for mill and stone, a reference to the building's past life. The menu centers on Greek seafood and traditional recipes made with fresh ingredients sourced from local producers.
The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner from Monday to Saturday, and for dinner only on Sundays. Booking a table in advance is a good idea, especially on weekday evenings when the place tends to fill up.
Although the restaurant sits in a busy urban neighborhood, it has a small outdoor area that is barely visible from the street. The kitchen is open, so diners can watch the cooks at work from their seats.
