Olive Garden Restaurant at www.japanese-home-gardens.com

The Green Park, run by a Greek-American, is a charming restaurant in a big olive garden restaurant, with scores of tables in the open air. In summer, two bands and a show keep the olive garden restaurant lively; and in winter the indoor restaurant is attractive. It is at 22 Mavromataion Street. Another very good summer-olive garden restaurant restaurant, this one at Kephissia, is the Kalambokas. Exploratory diners should by no means overlook the Tavernas of Athens and its environs for these are "Greek of the Greek," serving good food in local settings.

Hotel Reutermann is perhaps the best of them.
