Nolan is a new restaurant in the centre of Athens, in a small but well known street just below Plaka and very close to Syntagma Square and the Athens Cathedral (Metropoli). It is an asian-greek restaurant and that is why it is worth a visit: you can enjoy unique flavours and two different cuisines combined! It is a small hidden gem.
