Delicious homecooking that's hearty and filling, with generous portions. The host is very welcoming and talks you through the menu. One of a kind dining experience in Greece.

This is the best food we had in Greece on our nearly 2 week honeymoon. Everything was absolutely perfect and the owner was so friendly and kind!

Incredible place — delicious and warm - Edit
This place is so lovely. The food is incredible and the service was even better — so much warmth and kindness, taking the time to explain everything on the menu and even gave us an extra dessert to try. We had the quiche and the pasticio and both were delicious and the desserts and coffee were good too. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Mother Vegan Bistro 💚 - Edit
Mother Vegan Bistro is a true gem and a one-of-a-kind in Athens, offering up delicious local home-cooked foods. It’s almost like a meal you would expect a Greek mother would make for you! We shared the pastitsio made with lentils and pasta. The portion was generous, and we split it between the two of us. The combination of flavors between the pasta, tomato sauce, lentils, cauliflower cream topping, etc., just can’t be matched. The owner was incredibly warm and kind, and it was very clear she loves what she does. I will definitely be eating here again when I return to Athens next. 💚

Tasty, but lasagna was a bit cold - Edit
I had the lentil lasagna (offered as the special offering of the day) and a chocolate pie with ice cream. The lasagna was very nice, although only lukewarm whereas for me a bit hotter (though not necessarily steaming) would have done the job. The pie and strawberry cheesecake ice cream was very nice, although nothing too special.

Best Vegan Restaurant - Edit
Mother Vegan Bistro is not only the best vegan restaurant in Athens, but it is also the best vegan restaurant of the 20 countries I have visited over the years. Between Eva's kindness, the great menu (the quiche, as well as the eggplant and potatoes, was absolutely divine), and the violin music... it made it truly a heavenly experience (I had to hold back the tears because my soul was spiritually moved by it all). Wish I had discovered this fabulous restaurant before my last evening in Athens. Next time I am in Athens, it will be the first place I visit.

Lovely place - Edit
The owner was super friendly and took us through the menu. Fresh tasting, delicious food. We got a quiche and the dish of the day which included vegetables, quinoa and cashew cheese feta. Lovely interior with seating outside too. Would recommend.

We went twice - once for lunch and once for dinner. Absolutely delicious, homemade Greek food. And the owners are wonderful.

So, so good! - Edit
We went to Mother Vegan Bistro on a night on which they were basically fully booked with a big reservation. Instead of sending us away, though, the owners graciously and warmly welcomed us to stay. Ordered a Dakos salad and a warm dish of the day. Absolutely delicious! Also, the place is beautifully designed. And I can only repeat how absolutely lovely the owners are. Huge recommendation!

Great food and atmosphere in this small cool place. Queer friendly too. We loved loved loved the musaka, and enjoyed the quiche loren (it's not exactly a quiche but it's good) and the apple cake. All the food feels like home.. Recommend this place for sure!

Surprised not only vegan but organic! - Edit
First meal in Athens. After a busy day of walking finally found this place. Asked for suggestion and am thankful took metro to location. Its a mushroom mosaka, might be spelled wrong, but savory and filling. Love Happy Cow!

Authentic, honest, high quality food - Edit
Really cute spot in a nice area, the staff were very friendly and explained the menu well, the mousakka was so flavourful, eggplant cooked exquisitely. Unfortunately it was still cold in the middle 😓 fresh juice was sensational, takeaway chocolate cake delicious! Quiche not quite what I expected, more similar to potato bake
