Our story
A little taverna with a big heart.
The name Ta Filarakia means "the little friends." It's what our grandmother called the regulars who'd gather every evening on her terrace.
Today, we keep her tradition alive — same recipes, same warmth, same idea: that a good meal is best shared with friends.
