I've eaten here more than once and I always loved everything, especially the typical Greek dishes like saganaki cheese, cheese balls ans moussaka! I went also with family members who are not gluten free and they loved the food too 😍
Nice vegetarian and vegan spot where the gluten free options are clearly marked on the menu. I honestly expected a broader choice for gluten free, but the soup I got (spicy thai) was not disappointing - very very tasty! They also have gluten free desserts and beer.
Brilliant Italian restaurant. Close walk to the city centre (10 minutes), great food including a gluten free pasta meal which is the best I’ve ever had! Service was terrific and everyone very friendly. They could maybe do with a kids option sized pizza but apart from that faultless.
Review for Restaurant Gi – Surprisingly Good & Healthy
Based on the many positive reviews, we tried Gi – a modern, vegan restaurant that completely won us over. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was pleasantly relaxed.
Although I normally enjoy meat, I was really impressed: The dishes were creative, delicious, and perfectly seasoned. I was particularly surprised by the "Frikadellen" made with lentils – completely gluten-free and vegan, but delicious!
The price-performance ratio here is absolutely right. For me, this was a small introduction to a new direction – I will be turning to such healthy, plant-based alternatives more often in the future. Gi showed me how good vegan food can taste!😃
Possibly the best service I’ve ever received, the waiters were very lovely and friendly with a smile stuck on their faces that didn’t feel fake, the food was incredible and didn't feel like it was the usual tasteless gluten free options, wish it did have more celiac-friendly options but all in all, great staff, great food and I had a great time chatting with our waiter too! :) מצויינים אין עליכם והכי חמודים לישראלים שיש
Very nice food, we went with a large group of people with a person who has a stomach ache and the kids treated him like a king!! He ate a gluten-free burger after 2 years and enjoyed it!!! There were many gluten-free and delicious options. We enjoyed it and when we go to Athens again, the first choice of the whole group will be there! Thank you
Some time ago we visited, after booking, with the husband and a friendly couple A prices and we were very satisfied given the service, quality, taste and price. Lots of gluten free options. We will definitely go again!
We are big fans of Mexican food and regularly prepare it at home. We were excited to try this place on our family trip to Athens, but I gotta say it did not deliver.
I have celiac disease and I'm very sensitive to cross contamination with gluten. This place was recommended as one of the few in Athens where I can safely consume gluten free food safe from cross contamination.
I have to admit extra precautions were taken when I informed the staff of my condition and I felt Ok after the visit. But I was not impressed by the organization and I definitely felt anxious about getting glutened at this place.
Furthermore, the food was below par as quality and taste. I had the tacos with grilled beef steak. The taco shells were old and dry, the typical crispiness was missing. The meat was not well seasoned and had a strange taste. The guacamole was bland, I expected more from a Mexican place.
My wife and daughter were equally not impressed with their food. They were particularly disappointed by the churros.
Overall, it's Ok if you want to try Mexican, but don't expect much of this place.
Excellent service!!! Delicious and attentive food!!! I suffer from celiac disease and I was able to enjoy dishes adapted to my gluten-free diet without second thoughts!!!! I highly recommend it!!!! Thank you very much!!!!
TheThe food here is so tasty! All gluten free which is amazing for Celiac people! I wish I had taken a picture of the food, but I was too busy enjoying it! Definitely worth visiting!

The food is quite good.
I was looking forward to gluten free pancakes, but they don't have them anymore.
I took GF avocado toast, it was good.
Service is friendly and attentive
I love Poncho's tacos! It's a charming little hole in the wall. He makes his own masa for his incredible corn tortillas And they are gluten free. His passion for home style Mexican food keeps the menu simple but, sooooo sabrosa as they say. The Pico de Gallo and his 3 levels of salsas are the cherries on top. He can accommodate
vegans and vegetarians. And his take on Margherita's is also great and budget friendly. This is authentic Mexican food. Not the Tex-Mex most other places churn out.
Try it.!!!
Very nice and welcoming environment
Friendly and very attentive staff
They have gluten free options and are careful about contamination
Really very good and excellent quality food
I had a very good time
Excellent quality/price ratio
we came twice because we saw so much on the menu we wanted to try and everything tasted amazing! they also have lots of veg + glutenfree options (also gf bread!)
service is also very good, everyone is very nice.
10/10 would recommend! 😄
High quality ice cream! The staff is very courteous, lots of gluten free options and good awareness for GF - they made sure to use a new spoon (without having to ask them)
We have a child that eats gluten free dishes, the crew made a big effort to satisfy us all, and after serving us great deserts 'on the house', they added some fresh fruits especially for our child.

Too bad it doesn't have more stars to give. An amazing, unique, delicious ice cream in our Athens!!! Makrygianni area near the Acropolis. First time eating ice cream and I can see its ingredients, obviously good raw materials, gluten-free and low-fat. You can see the creation of the ice cream in its open kitchen with its beautiful decoration. You wait in line reverently, you arrive to serve and you are greeted by two incredible girls, calm, polite, smiling and positively predisposing you to what follows. With the first spoon, my palate had a party, I couldn't leave without repeating the divine taste of melon sorbet and raw and salted pistachio!! Epic ice cream, lucky to have tried it, real ice cream, I recommend you go and try it and your palate will have a party too!! Congratulations to everyone who contributed to the creation of this divine ice cream!!!
Our entire experience was excellent. A small restaurant, we received one-on-one attention from Vasily and the rest of the team. The grilled octopus was the best we’ve had in Athens, and the baba ganoush with pita and cucumber slices was perfect for sharing with a vegetarian. We enjoyed the tzatziki with both pita and gluten free toast as a light pairing to a bottle of rose. In all, a light Mediterranean meal in the shadow of the Acropolis, with excellent service!
Really nice spot with lots of tempting dishes on the menu — it’s hard to pick just one! Great service, stylish interior, and they even have gluten-free options, which is a big plus.
It was very tasty, the service was excellent and the atmosphere was pleasant and when they started playing it was electrifying! In addition, there are ads for gluten-free dishes!
Definitely recommended!!!
Great gluten free options for me (celiac) and the waitress had good knowledge about the menu, which put me at ease. Huge portions for a very reasonable price - in fact I thought it was very cheap! Great atmosphere. I would definitely come back!
I came here during June to see Coldplay and fell in love with the atmosphere surrounding the arachova grill house, the service was excellent and staff were very friendly. My daughter suffers from coeliac disease and is very cautious of her condition, the staff made sure her food was gluten free without contamination and even went as far as to specially make gluten free chips for her which we appreciated. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the athens area we have ate here during the evening every night we’ve been here and have been very well looked after.

Service beyond all criticism. We ordered gluten free pasta. We waited 30 minutes!! (To their credit they said it would take 25 minutes). We asked for another bottle of water. Didn't come at all. In the first account we asked for it was...in short, bad service

A wonderful dining experience well worth its Michelin star. Had the 11 course menu with wine pairings and paid extra for lobster with the soup. Elegant conversion of a former factory/warehouse in the unglamorous part of Athens. Attentive service and they adjusted the menu for our gluten intolerance.

Delicious Thai food! Loved having the variety while visiting Athens. We tried the 3 apps, 2 curries, and 3 noodle dishes and really enjoyed them all. They also have an incredible chili powder you can add on top that is actually hot! We were missing spicy food. The restaurant is very small/ our party of 6 ate at the counter, which was fine but not as ideal for sharing food. Would definitely go back. Tons of naturally gluten free items - and the menu is labeled.
We went on a rainy Sunday early at 1:30 PM and found a table on the sand. We got saganaki, french fries, chef's salad, pork bekri meze, stuffed brisket, pork pancetta, 2 Pepsi, half a kilo of white wine, a couvert with 6 large slices of bread (4.5€), 1lt of water (1.5€) and in total we paid 78.4€. Everything was delicious. The baking was very correct, quality ingredients that stand out, the salad was light enough without weighing you down. The saganaki didn't melt, it was more chewy. Personally, I would have liked to finish the appetizers first and then have the main courses brought to us so they wouldn't get cold. But then the shop filled up both inside and out, so it wouldn't be that easy. At the end, they treated us to small homemade and crispy donuts like bites. Half with honey and cinnamon and the other half with chocolate. What impressed me was the mention in the menus of vegetarian and gluten free dishes with the corresponding sign. Finally, the staff, before we asked them, brought us a bag and a small container for takeaway. Excellent service and clean toilets.
I couldn’t recommend this place more, one of the best spots we had food in when we came to visit Athens!
This place is just off a busy street of tourist trap restaurants next to the Acropolis museum and is definitely worth finding as the experience is so much better.
Our host was very welcoming and talked us through all the food options available that day in impeccable English, it’s clearly a family-run establishment and the atmosphere was very charming.
We had the grilled pork, traditional Greek salad, baked aubergines and stuffed peppers and everything was delicious. We had a couple Mythos beers with it and it was very cheap for the quality of the food.
The menu changes often but there were also plenty of vegan and gluten-free options for those with dietary restrictions and this is something the owner takes very carefully
This place offers the most delicious gluten free pancakes I’ve ever had. The apple and honey one as well as the chocolate and strawberry one (beware to ask the waiter to take out the cookie bits out, they are not gluten free). Really recommend this place for breakfast!
