I know for beer, water, and soda, you just use a CO2 tank, regulator and sealed pressure keg combo, cool the liquid to about 35 degrees Fahrenheit, and apply 15 to 20 psi of top pressure (NEVER use more pressure than a keg is rated for! That's a great way to blow up your keg.). If you want your liquid to dissolve a bit more CO2, gently agitating (usually by shaking) the contents every once in a while will help.
Based on that information i seriously doubt the Greeks had fizzy drinks.

This may seem like a silly question (forgive me I don't know much about civillian Roman life) but did the Romans (or anyone else for that matter) have restaurants in the form that we would recognise?
At the moment I think the best place to live in terms of food would be southern Gaul, quite close to Massalia, you would have access to the northern "barbarian" hearty meals but also be able to purchase exotic luxuries to improve your dinner.

in ancient Roman cities, we can found some eating houses sold baked breads, wine, and meats... it was mentioned in EB I think
just like today's pizza stall, but without tomato

I read in an article(yes, I know how meaningless that makes my post) that Roman noblemen sometimes wrote travel logs, complete with tavern recommendations. Strabo recommended one inn for its food. I'll try to find this article.
