Tzoutzouka offers bold twists to traditional Greek tastes in the heart of Rouf

Blending the charm of a bygone era with the creativity of modern gastronomy, Tzoutzouka finds itself in the vibrant heart of the Rouf neighborhood in Athens. Nestled within a carefully renovated space that once housed an old kafenio and a neighborhood deli, Tzoutzouka exudes a vintage, relaxing atmosphere. The facade of the former coffee shop and the carefully preserved mosaic floor transport guests to another time, while the expansive outdoor area adorned with lush plants evokes a cozy urban-inspired bistro feeling. Large windows envelop the space, bathing it in natural light. Inside, an open kitchen crafts delicious dishes rooted in Greek tradition with a creative twist, using local ingredients. The seasonal menu features highlights like a Fresh Cherry Tomatoes Salad, Fish-Roe Dip, Couscous with shrimps, Sauté Fresh Fish, and Braised Beef Cheeks. Tzoutzouka’s marble bar offers a selection of local wines, spirits and classic cocktails. The restaurant invites guests to immerse themselves in the timeless melodies of old jazz, blending nostalgia with vibrant tunes.
