Kafenion was the perfect choice for my PhD Graduation dinner. The staff were all very obliging, energetic and attentive to all our requests. Food was delicious with very generous servings. The candlelight ambiance and background music made for a relaxed mood. We all had a fabulous time and will be visiting again.
