Makris joins the growing constellation of modern Athens fine-dining restaurants — a remarkable culinary renaissance in a city that has transformed its gastronomic reputation over the past decade. Dimas's approach celebrates the extraordinary diversity of Greek ingredients, from Epirus to Crete.

Petros Dimas, born 1988, is the chef patron at Makris in Athens, which earned its first Michelin star in December 2024 as one of the guide's new entries. His contemporary Greek cuisine respects traditional ingredients and regional producers while expressing a modern, personal creative vision.
