KOLONAKI, ATHENS · SINCE 1993
For more than three decades, Kiku has been one of the defining addresses of Athenian dining. Today it opens its doors differently. Kiku becomes Casa Kiku: a house you come to eat in, drink in, meet people in, and stay in as long as you like.
Casa is the foundation of the whole concept. Walking in, you are not shown to a table, you enter a house and choose where you would like to be. The salon for something unhurried. The dining room for a full dinner. The bar for a drink that turns into an evening.
LEGACY
Kiku opened in Kolonaki in 1993 and introduced Athens to a Japanese table of precision and restraint. Generations of guests have grown up around it. Casa Kiku keeps that kitchen and that history intact, and gives it a more contemporary way of welcoming people.
MOMENTS OF LIVING
Not one hall filled with restaurant tables, but different moments of living inside the same house.
Two salons set the tone of the house. Deep armchairs, low marble tables, brass lamplight and art books left open as if someone just stepped away. Spaces for lingering, for arriving early and leaving late, for feeling that the house is quietly yours.
Three dining rooms for three kinds of evenings. The full Kiku dinner as a ritual, a secluded room for celebrations and conversations that need their own space, and a marble table designed for long dinners and larger groups. The same kitchen, the same service, shaped to the occasion.
Two bars for the aperitif that becomes a night. One more theatrical, where the ceiling becomes the event, and a second intimate counter for cocktails, sake and late conversations. Each one a different way to begin, or end, the evening.
CASA MYKONOS
Casa Kiku Kolonaki is the natural continuation of Casa Mykonos, our house of stay and dining on the island, where sleeping, eating, drinking and social life are one experience. In Athens we keep exactly the same DNA, simply removing the rooms.
STAY. DINE. BELONG.
In Kolonaki, Belong carries the greatest weight. We want a place people come to not only because they hold a reservation, but because it feels like theirs, where you arrive for dinner and stay for hours.
