First of all great view from the balcony, doesn’t matter if it day or night. Very big balcony, if you prefer to eat out absolutely this is a place. We have been there in rush time hours. So … the service was very slow , but if you book the orders in advance , this is completely different story. The food was fresh , testy. A little bit expensive compare to the PLAKA area.

Kalua rooftop offers the most breathtaking view in all of Athens. The staff are incredibly kind, helpful, and professional they made my experience truly one of a kind A special shoutout to Konstantinos, who set the tone for my visit with his warm welcome and exceptional hospitality. Zoi provided the best food recommendations and was very attentive, Dimitra was incredibly nice and helpful. Lastly, thank you to John for being patient and caring. Overall, it was a time worth spending, and I can't wait to return

During our recent stay in Athens, we had the pleasure of dining at KALUA, located in the stylish NYX Hotel. From start to finish, the experience was thoroughly enjoyable and memorable. The food was a highlight, with a Greek and Japanese fusion. Every dish was beautifully presented, showcasing both creativity and attention to detail. The flavours were fresh and well-balanced, making each bite a delight. Service was equally impressive. The staff were not only friendly and welcoming but genuinely attentive. It was clear that they made every effort to ensure guests felt comfortable and well cared for. The atmosphere was fantastic. A live DJ played a vibrant mix of house and dance tracks, often with a tasteful Greek twist, adding an energetic yet relaxed vibe to the evening. We were fortunate to sit on the outdoor terrace, which offered stunning views over the city with the Acropolis glowing in the distance—an unforgettable backdrop.
