X2 Restaurant

Name: X2 Restaurant
Price range: €€

X2 fits a small dining room beside Dariotou Street in central Tripoli, working as a mezedopoleio rather than a formal Arcadian restaurant. Mushroom pie, chicken roulade and beef with chestnut and pasta show a kitchen willing to move beyond the standard grill.

Our take

Chestnut beef waits until dinner

Lunch may omit the more ambitious evening dishes, so call before travelling for a specific plate. There are no outdoor tables and roadside seats feel close to traffic; reserve inside, ask for the dinner list and let one pie precede the slow-cooked meat.

What visitors say

X2 holds 4.6 from about 77 Tripadvisor reviews and a Travelers' Choice marker; tender meat and composed meze lead praise, while lunch diners report that some dinner dishes are unavailable.

Restaurant

Klimataria Piteros

Klimataria Piteros fills a broad room on Kalavriton Street, with parking, outdoor tables and space for the family gatherings that shape its service. Classic roasts, stews, salads and grilled meat matter more than small-plate styling, and vegetarian diners find more cooked choices than at a pure psistaria.

Restaurant

Pinakothiki

Pinakothiki occupies the end of Agios Panteleimonas in Tripoli, using a quiet indoor room and outdoor tables rather than the city's café squares. Greek cooked dishes and grilled meat arrive in generous portions, drawing Sunday family lunches and residents who recommend it by word of mouth.

Restaurant

Villa Incognito

Villa Incognito serves contemporary cooking grounded in Greek tradition from a central Tripoli house, supported by a broad Greek and international wine list.
