About Thirio
Thirio in Athens is a Greek gastrotaverna with a price of about $55 per person and a smart-casual dress code. The clearest reason to consider it is the cooking style: Greek gastrotaverna fare with named signature dishes that point to a creative approach rather than a purely traditional taverna meal.
