The Best Pizza Near Kyrios, by the Record
-
Rank 1. Ovio
Contemporary Italian
A wood-fired oven anchors the menu at this contemporary Italian restaurant near the heart of central Athens, where the kitchen turns out handmade pastas alongside pizzas and meat dishes. The room spreads across three areas, including a terrace and a balcony good for cocktails when the evening cools. The kind of place that draws a broad crowd without trying too hard to please everyone, which is harder than it sounds.

A Neapolitan pizza maker transplanted to the southern suburbs of Athens, far enough from the tourist trail that the room fills with locals who came for a full dinner and stayed for the calzone. This is an Italian comfort-food restaurant where pizza holds its own against dishes from the kitchen and a genuine sense of family hospitality. The dough is Neapolitan in the serious sense, and it landed a spot on 50 Top Pizza Europe.
