Best chicken on a stick. 1.70 euro with fries. Gets packed! Absolutely delicious. The place gets quite busy, so make sure you order a lot at once. The chicken comes with fries and a lemon.

Kanella is lovely tradtional taverna. The place is not very big and it is usually always full. So, keep in mind that if you can't reserve table, you might have to wait on the line or not go at all because it is crowded in the evenings. Authentic tasty food and fair price. Definitely recommend to go.
