Lively Greek taverna with generous skewers, fast service, and low prices; great for groups and families, but delivery and consistency can be unreliable.
The President delivers satisfying Greek taverna fare with strong food quality and attentive dine-in service, earning its grade B standing as a reliable neighborhood hub. However, variable quality—particularly in delivery and kebab doneness—prevents a higher grade, while recent reports suggest a slight quality dip. Best experienced in-house where the kitchen's speed and warmth shine brightest.
The President feels like a neighborhood hub in Alimos, with a warm and bustling taverna vibe where platters land fast and fries arrive crisp and herbed. One diner summed it up: "We fed four with one platter and still had sips of cold wine left." Expect friendly servers who pop by often, though parking on Kalamaki Avenue can be a minor hassle. Cooking here stays classic: juicy gyros, cheese-laced kebabs, peinirli, and mezze that make a table feel abundant. It suits groups, casual date nights, and families who want satisfying Greek staples without fuss. The strengths show most in-house; delivery can be late and less crisp, so kebabs and fries shine brightest when eaten straight from the grill. Families are welcome. Kids dive into hand-cut fries, simple chicken skewers, and the menu's homemade nuggets. Vegetarians find plenty of starters like grilled cheeses, eggplant salad, and falafel. There is no formal kids menu, but portions and simple prep keep younger eaters happy.
