A no-frills Greek taverna serving homemade traditional dishes in the vibrant Mouffetard quarter, where authenticity trumps décor.

Tzeferakos: Authentic Greek Flavors in the Heart of Mouffetard

The cuisine at Tzeferakos celebrates Greek culinary traditions with homemade dishes that showcase the depth and variety of Hellenic cooking. The kitchen focuses on authentic preparations that honor traditional recipes, delivering flavors that transport you straight to the Mediterranean. Their tzatziki exemplifies this commitment to quality—the creamy yogurt base perfectly balanced with fresh cucumber, garlic, and herbs, creating the ideal accompaniment to virtually everything on the menu.

The boulettes de bœuf demonstrate the kitchen's skill with seasoning, each meatball infused with Mediterranean herbs and spices that create layers of flavor without overwhelming the quality beef. The pastitsio stands as a centerpiece of the menu—this Greek baked pasta dish layers tender macaroni with spiced ground meat and a silky béchamel sauce, baked until golden and bubbling. It's comfort food that speaks to generations of Greek home cooking, executed with the kind of care that only comes from genuine knowledge of the cuisine.

The tyropita showcases the kitchen's mastery of phyllo pastry, achieving that elusive combination of crispy, flaky layers encasing warm, savory cheese filling. Beyond these signature dishes, the menu offers a range of traditional Greek specialties, with vegetarian options that prove the cuisine's plant-based versatility. The plats du jour, starting at just 11€, provide excellent value while introducing diners to lesser-known Greek preparations. Every dish reflects the homemade quality that defines Tzeferakos—this is food prepared with the same attention and technique you'd find in a Greek family kitchen, where recipes pass through generations and shortcuts are simply not an option. The kitchen's commitment to authenticity extends to sourcing and preparation methods, ensuring that each plate delivers genuine Greek flavors rather than Parisian interpretations.
