FROM THE CITY CENTRE TO SOFOULI STREET
A Thessaloniki restaurant overlooking the Thermaic Gulf
If you are looking for a restaurant in Thessaloniki that brings Greek culinary memory together with contemporary technique, Nea Diagonios welcomes you at 64A Themistokli Sofouli Street. Our only location is on the eastern waterfront, not in the historic city centre. The short journey towards the sea changes the pace of the occasion and leads to a bright dining room designed for an unhurried lunch or dinner.
Contemporary Greek cooking with a Thessaloniki identity
The Nea Diagonios kitchen is shaped by land, fire and sea. Handmade gyros and Thessaloniki soutzoukakia sit beside selected cuts, fish, seafood and dishes guided by the season. Technique supports the ingredient instead of hiding it, allowing each plate to remain clear, generous and recognisably Greek.
The waterfront setting suits several kinds of visit: a quiet table for two, a family lunch or a longer evening with friends. Before choosing, browse the current menu and plan your reservation around the day, time and size of your party.
Getting here from central Thessaloniki
From Aristotelous Square and the central waterfront, the driving distance is approximately 5–6 kilometres. The usual route follows Vasilissis Olgas Avenue and continues towards Themistokli Sofouli Street. A taxi or car journey often takes 15–25 minutes, though traffic can change this considerably.
For public transport, choose a live route towards Sofouli Street and confirm the most convenient stop before leaving. The “Gefyra” bus stop is close to the venue. The directions button opens the exact destination in a map, so the route adapts to your actual starting point.

Booking ahead is helpful for Friday, Saturday and Sunday, as well as for larger groups. Use the online reservation service or call +30 2310 029085. Tell the team how many guests will attend and mention any practical request that may affect the table arrangement.
