THE SPACE

THE FULFILLMENT OF A VISION

The culinary journey begins at a quintessential part of the Chalandri neighborhood in an impeccably renovated and unique venue – Le Pavillon – which prides itself for being one of the few typical neoclassical buildings of the Greek architectural heritage of the 40s remaining today.

Le Pavillon’s both interior and exterior aesthetics embody the essence of an idyllic, past era which has come to date after a meticulous, design-forward refurbishment aiming to elevate this exquisite neoclassical mansion to become an ideal shelter for anyone who enjoys al fresco fine-dining evenings and cozy dining and wine-pairing nights.
