One of the oldest Tavernas in the Plaka, dating back to 1898, this is where my friends and I spent many an evening. Who cared if the waiters were rude and got mad at you if you didn’t order enough, or spilled hot fish oil on my friend’s expensive dresses not one but two times. What was the big deal if everytime we ate there the bill was padded with stuff we didn’t order and never received? Even after my friends and I one at a time declared we would never eat there again, we always came back, because the food was great, the wine delicious and because it was on the steps of the Plaka far from any cars, it was like being on an island. They could insult us, not recognize us after hundreds of visits, ruin our clothes, rip us off and laugh at us when we left, and we did not care. For some reason Psaras went out of business. But now it is back, with new tableclothes, a new decor (a whole new restaurant in the same beautiful spot), new waiters (the old ones are probably in prison or selling chestnuts in Omonia), new cooks (the old ones were over 100 and probably died), and food and wine that is better then the old Psaras. The menu is in English and the waitors and staff are pleasant and very helpful. It’s on the corner of Erotocritou and Erehtheos streets up the steps that lead from the Plaka to the Acropolis. I love the grilled soupes (cuttlefish). Try the Cretan Salad too. (Last time I was here I lost my phone so ask if they found it yet.) It is a little more expensive than the other restaurants on this page but nice atmosphere and if you are a group they have room but you should make reservations.
