And the Nun\u2019s old stage is still set for live entertainment. <\/p>\n<p>Mythos\u2019 menu includes classic spreads and small plates, kebab platters, branzino, lamb chops and Scottish salmon.<\/p>\n<p>Chef Konstantinos \u201cDinos\u201d Chilias, who co-owns the spot with business partner Daniel Marina, told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay that he isn\u2019t worried about Baba being just a block away. He said he sees Mythos as being a more casual, family-friendly bistro.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a little bit different,\u201d Chilias told CL. \u201cI\u2019m from Greece\u2026It\u2019s two different things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chilias also runs La Creperia Cafe in Ybor City and previously operated the Crepeway Cafe in St. Pete\u2019s EDGE District.<\/p>\n<p>Mythos Greek Bistro is open Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday 4 p.m.-10 p.m.; 4 p.m.-11 p.m. Thursday; Friday-Saturday 4 p.m.-3 a.m. It\u2019s closed on Mondays. Visit mythosgreekbistro.com or follow @mythosgreekbistro on Instagram for updates.<\/p>\n<p>The restaurant does not yet have its liquor license, but Chilias expects it to be ready in the next two weeks. <\/p>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cltampa.com\/tampa\/NewsletterSignup\/Page\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Subscribe to Creative Loafing
