Today, his son, Asterios, has taken the helm, taking Trizoni well beyond its traditional roots. The eye-catching fish display showcases freshly caught fish, grilled impeccably. Among the most inventive dishes, the smoked mackerel with a French onion soup sauce and the sardine with bourdeto stand out. The restaurant also boasts a well-curated wine list.
