Charming meze-focused Greek spot with warm hospitality and flavorful small plates; great for sharing, but portions are modest and some find pricing and service charges confusing.
Restaurant Summary
Tucked off the main paths of Chora, Amades feels like a tiny living room where warm hospitality leads the way. Guests describe vintage touches, lane-side tables, and music that sets a lively tone. One diner summed it up: "We felt looked after from the first plate to the last." Service shines most nights, though the snug room can feel cozy and energetic. The cooking leans traditional and shareable: baked feta, prawns saganaki, meatballs, crisp salads, and classic dips. Plates are small by design, so ordering a spread is the move. Flavors are bright and well seasoned, with occasional specials layered into a focused meze menu. Some find portions modest and a few note bill quirks, but many call it a fair, delicious escape from the pricier waterfront. Families do fine here. Simple choices like fries, fried cheese, pan-fried chicken, and yogurt with honey make it accessible, and staff have even softened music for a baby. The menu does not have a separate kids list, but enough familiar Greek staples are present to keep younger diners happy.
