Αμάλθεια, restaurant in Katerini, Greece
Amaltheia is a Mediterranean and international restaurant on Ippokratous Street in the center of Katerini, offering dishes built around carefully chosen raw ingredients. The menu moves from cold and hot starters to mountain meats, steaks, and fresh seafood, while the room includes space for large groups and an outdoor seating area.
The wine cellar gives a strong sense of the Greek countryside, with more than 200 labels drawn from vineyards across the country and a list that changes regularly. In the dining room, the pace of the meal is unhurried, and many visitors combine a main course with a local wine chosen with help from the staff.
Booking ahead can help if you plan to visit with a family or a large group, since the restaurant is also set up for children and offers takeout. Keep in mind that Monday is a day off, while from Tuesday to Sunday the doors stay open from midday until late evening.
The handmade mille-feuille is made with buffalo milk rather than the usual cow's milk, and it has become the dish people mention long after the meal. Less obvious on a first visit is that the wine list is not fixed but is continually renewed, so the selection can differ from one season to the next.
