SENSE is undeniably among the best rooftop restaurants in Athens. It combines incredible panoramic city views with modern Greek-inspired dishes.
The setting may be elegant and low-key, but the Michelin Guide-listed restaurant food is anything but: diners will embark on a gastronomic journey to Greece. The two dinner-tasting menus inspired by the Elefsinian Mysteries of Ancient Greece will create unique feelings on your tasting pallet.
Ancient Greece is an inexhaustible well of knowledge with a rich spiritual legacy that teaches us that life is not what we see. The Eleusinian Mysteries were originally a beneficial agricultural celebration aimed at fertilising the earth. Later, they were associated with the initiation of a hopeful promise for birth and the deeper perpetuation of life with a powerful vow of silence in the gastronomic history of Greece.

not recommended for children that are under the age of twelve (12) years old.

Truly outstanding food, I had one of the best fish dishes I’ve ever had on their tasting menu but each course was great in its own way, we had dinner at another Michelin restaurant the night after and it was not as good, sense makes sense if you’re a foodie.

Beste Aussicht aber eingerichtet wie in einer Kantine es war mein Geburtstag ich war du enttäuscht Der ausgegebene Prosecco war leider warm,die Gängeksnen sehr schnell die Kellner hatten sehr abgehacktes Englisch Gespür wir können nur bis zum 5 Gang erzählen da es mir leider schlecht war schon vor den Sterne Restaurant Besuch Das Balthasar war um Längen ein Traum einen Tag vorher für mich Wir sind oft im Sterne Restaurant das war leider nicht eine Geschmacks Explosion die Weine waren sich nicht toll

A great dining experience. The food was inventive and it was an odyssey of taste. The staff were warm, inviting and very professional. The atmosphere was relaxed and everyone there was having a good time.

Amazing view to Acropolis and Athens from the top. The dishes were excellent one more time. The wine pairing needs improvement to be perfect. I suggest to add a line with the wine pairing under each dish. We will go again to taste the new menu. I am not sure if we will ask for wine pairing.

The culinary experience is beyond all expectations. This should be a required dining spot for anybody passing through Athens. From the Chef’s exquisite takes on classic and modern Greek cuisine and Natasi and her Service Team’s attentiveness to details, this was an absolute 10 out of 10 rating. This was edible art at its best.
