Information
After 96 years in Piraeus, the legendary and multi-award-winning " Vassilainas " recently moved to the Hilton area, one of the city's up-and-coming culinary areas. Here, you will find a truly creative Greek cuisine .
In this historic restaurant, which has been honored by many famous personalities such as Winston Churchill, Elias Kazan, Romy Schneider and Sofia Loren, as well as Irini Pappa and Melina Merkouri, you will enjoy high quality gastronomy with an emphasis on seafood products , such as juvetsi with shrimps and tuna, as well as the aromatic fish soup with fresh grouper. A unique experience is offered by the 7-course gastronomic menu , a tradition that has existed since 1929.
The space, designed by renowned architects Maria Kokkinou and Andreas Kourkoulas, exudes the atmosphere of the 60s while maintaining an architectural harmony with the iconic Hilton building. Volcanic pumice walls and hundreds of illuminated wine bottles hanging from the ceiling create ambient lighting, while the centerpiece is the impressive walk-in wine cellar with over 150 wine labels.
