The crazy little Greek

A fully vegan and gluten-free Greek menu with no meat substitutes. It draws on the naturally plant-based side of Greek cooking: tapas-style mezze such as dolma, spanakopita, vegan saganaki and gigantes, mains like moussaka and pastitsio, plus dips, salads, bowls and Greek desserts including bougatsa and galaktoboureko.

The concept is inspired by the Greek island of Ikaria, one of the world's Blue Zones, where residents often reach an above-average age on a largely plant-based diet. Instead of using meat substitutes, the kitchen leans on the naturally vegan Greek staples of beans, vegetables, rice, fresh herbs, lemon and olives.

Open Tuesday to Saturday from 17:00 to 23:00. It is a dinner-only spot, closed on Mondays and Sundays.

It is at Koppenplatz 1, 10115 Berlin, in the Mitte district. The restaurant is small and gets busy, so booking ahead by phone (+49 30 47064142) is recommended.

Yes. The venue describes itself as the world's first vegan and gluten-free Greek restaurant, so the whole menu is both plant-based and gluten-free.
