I don't understand this score. I think the pizzas are excellent, top five, nice salads too. The pizza cheese does exactly what I want the cheese to do, long, stringy Ninja Turtle style cheese, something that I've been honestly expecting and never realized that, until that cheese was nearly a foot away from the pizza and still holding them together. I recommend the Goat Cheese Pizza, which is a Hawaiian with bacon and goat cheese. read more

Just don't. We stopped in after picking someone up from the airport. It was 8 adults and 2 kids. When we ordered, I was told it would be an up charge for my Greek salad (fine), but when the salad came, it was the EXACT same as the no charge tossed salad but with ONE (and I literally mean one) olive. I asked for additional olives because how are you gonna up charge me extra for a 'Greek' salad with one olive? I omitted the feta on my own... was then told that she technically in the future would have to charge me extra for the olives and she could get in trouble. Maybe, we shouldn't be charging people extra and providing a salad with one olive. Then, I ordered an Alfredo with chicken which is also an up charge and received my pasta with NO chicken. A lot of the orders were incorrect or missing things in some capacity. Alfredo was gritty. The locals must just have nothing better.. thankfully I was just an interloper but even if in the area, I would not be back. read more

You guys kicked it. Had your specialty pizza with the request to extra-well the crust. You even took my advice concerning airline travel. Well done all!!! read more

Food was excellent and the ambiance was great. Our server was the best ever. The young man was so helpful and friendly from beginning to end of our wonderful meal. I highly recommend this restaurant . read more

Service and ambiance worked out well as I only had to wait 15-20 minutes. I got an Acropolis Supreme (consisting of pepperoni, sausage, ground beef, ham, mushrooms, green peppers and onions) on a GF crust with non-dairy cheese. The flavors tasted like the supreme pizzas I grew up eating and the crust had a good crunch to it, but it was also very oily on the bottom. Overall, though, an enjoyable pie. read more

My daughter ordered fettuccine Alfredo added chicken with side salad upgraded for a few to a Greek hold the feta, well no feta and ONE OLIVE and no chicken in the Alfredo. We asked for a few more olives at least and server brought like 3 but proceeded to tell us we would be charged xtra for olives, wait a min. You mean Greek salad doesn't come with more than 1 olive with what was charged? We already saved your food cost by holding the feta, just bad customer service. We would never return to this place, the food wasn't even good enough to overlook the Nickel and dimeing us. What a shame read more

Second visit to Acropolis Pizza, Dec 1, 2025. Very good! Arrived around 5pm and seated immediately. Not too crowded, but at least four take-out orders, while we got settled and ordered soda. That's great that they stay busy! We both tried something different. Hubby got the Chicken Gyro Platter, which is four large pieces of grilled chicken, placed open-faced on a toasted pita, served with house-made tzatziki sauce and a greek salad. I tried the chicken and the salad, which were both excellent, but they could have included another piece of pita bread. I had the Loaded Steak Sub, which is tender grilled sirloin steak on a toasted New York style hoagie roll with provolone cheese and mayonnaise. The cost for it was $11.99, but you can add additional veggies for $1.49 each, or all three for $2.50, saving yourself $1.97 if you want all three. "Loaded" means I added green peppers, mushrooms, and grilled onions. Wish I would have read the fine print: "Lettuce & tomato optional. Served with potato chips & pickle spear." I could have gotten lettuce and tomato, because the extra toppings of green peppers, mushrooms, and onions gave me severe stomach cramps and heartburn. I'm sure it was just *MY* experience, as I'm certain there was nothing wrong with those veggies. I chose to upgrade to french fries, which cost an extra $2.49!!! That's a bit steep, without telling me the price. Chips would have been fine. I asked for tzatziki sauce to go, as my husband had half of his grilled chicken left, and it cost $1.99!!! I get it, restaurants cannot give food away, but next time, I'll either ask, or they should tell us the price before we add or upgrade menu items. Once you order, the menus are removed from the table, so you're blindly ordering without knowing the cost! Our server, Claire, was very friendly and attentive, checking on us often, bringing soda refills without being asked. She offered dessert, but we were full, so we asked for to-go cups & boxes. We tipped 25% and saved a little by paying in cash, rather than using a credit or debit card, which *IS* clearly printed on the receipt. They do have an ATM on site, in case you wish to pay cash. Bathrooms are older, but very clean, and a recent paint job. They must have fixed the handle on the toilet in the handicapped stall, as it flushed easily, where I had trouble in August. See photos, as everything was prepared fresh and hot, and generous portions. Next time, I may try the tuna sub, as I'm still recalling my former coworkers *RAVING* about it, and that was 5 years ago! Thanks, Acropolis! read more

Restaurant was empty . Ordered bruschetta and a small pizza. Waited nearly 45 minutes. Pizza was tasteless. Bruschetta needed salt . Will not visit again. read more

Absolutely ridiculous. Acropolis has jacked their prices up yet again, and now it costs over $21 for a small gluten-free cheese pizza. That's not a deluxe specialty pie, that's just for a crust substitution. Outrageous. It feels like they're taking advantage of people with dietary restrictions. It's like they know people who need gluten-free don't have much of a choice and they're cashing in on it. I used to enjoy coming here, but this is insulting. There are plenty of other places in town that respect their customers and don't make you feel punished for having dietary needs. At this point, I'm done with Acropolis. read more

This was our first time here, everything we ordered was delicious! I was happy to see they had gluten friendly options. We will be back

The baklava was delicious! Thats what gave them 2 stars instead of zero. Bruschetta was mostly onion, no basil, no Balsamic. It was really over powering and just gross. The athena pizza was tolerable. The toppings to 1 side I credit to door dash, how ever even when I spread the toppings over the pizza it wasn't great. The side with just cheese was better. I would not order it again. I will not eat here again. But the baklava was good. read more

The service was good, along with the food! I've been here many times and the calzones and pizza are awesome. The penne alla vodka was decent, not my favorite ever but still good! The sauce was just a little more watery than I was expecting but the flavor was nice. The garlic knots are always good, just very filling. read more

Staff is still rude. Food is still just subpar. There are so many good places to go. This isn't one of them. The atmosphere is still bland. I won't be back. I'm sure they will be happy about that. read more

Food and service were very good. The meatballs and sauce were absolutely delicious, we always get this as an appetizer. Glad to be able to dine-in after Covid and storm. All the dishes are incredible. Planning our next visit already! read more

I love this place!! The food is so so good!!! I have long since patronized this restaurant and am so happy it made it thru the pandemic! Got the eggplant parm again last night and it was absolutely perfect! Def 2 thumbs up! read more

In town to do some hiking and I needed some carbs, so this place fit the bill. I did pick up and the food was screaming hot and held up well to the drive. The chicken parm was run of the mill. Tasty, plenty of chicken, gigantic portion...nothing out of the ordinary. The cheese bread was...um, wow. There was probably a full pound of cheese on six slices of bread. It was good, the cheese went way past overkill, but hey, it's their food cost! The price was very reasonable, the service was fast and friendly, and everyone I saw was masked up! read more

Love their food, can't say I've ever gotten anything bad. Some of my favorites are salads, antipasto and Greek, steak subs, pasta meals and of course pizza. Always busy so that says something about the food and friendly service. read more

Pizza is fantastic and lasagna, also. Would recommend- haven't had dine in due to lack of staff at the arden location

Great food and great service! We loved the spanikopita and Athena pizza we got. Both tastes homemade and we're fresh out of the oven!

I thought that this place would be as good as the other Greek/ Italian restaurants in the Asheville area. I was mistaken. I had the steak sub, they charge extra for potato salad instead of chips. The others don't do that. The potato salad was out of a container; not homemade. The meat was cooked the day before and very dry. the cheese was nonexistent and loaded with mayonnaise. They also charge extra for each of the following: mushrooms, onions, and peppers ( $1.49 each) $13.48 for just the meat and cheese??? What cheese? So drive over to one of the other places!! read more

The food was good. Hadn't eaten there in a couple of weeks. I love their pizza and spinach salad and gyros. Happy to see the restaurant is open for seating again read more

This is used to be a favorite pizza place for us. My hubby loves Greek salads, and Acropolis makes a huge one. The garlic knots are buttery and flavorful. The pizza is really good...lots of toppings. The customer service here is not good. We have had a few issues whether we eat-in or carry-out. We've given them several tries, but with so many other pizza places in the area, we'll go somewhere else. read more

I think that the very old-school Acropolis on Airport Road still has the best lamb gyro in the Asheville area. Real shaved meat, not the prepackaged stuff. Acropolis also has a decent pizza. And, in these inflationary days, it remains affordable. read more

I am sitting here right now. You now have to sit in The ice bar next door to get a meal. So cold inside the ice bar you can't stand it. Ask to have AC turned down. Was told they don't know how. It's probably 40 degree inside here now. The Ice bar is so dark you cant see the menu or even your hand in front of your face. If I were not waiting on another couple I would leave. Service is awful. Food not good. I will not go back for sure. read more

Bad attitude by our waiter! Never welcomed us, said any pleasantries and just an overall bad attitude! Our group got up and left. Too many dining options in the area to ever want to go back. read more

I really didn't like the food here but I am extremely picky so I say try it yourself. Staff was really nice and the restaurant was clean with a 98% rating. The store has a in the middle of a shopping center with plenty of parking. Make sure you check in with Yelp because they offer free garlic knots with marina sauce!! read more

Food was delicious. My wife had the four cheese ravioli and I had the veal parmigiana. Can't go wrong here! I would definitely go here again. read more

So..true story. My friend and I were in Asheville for an event and were trying to get downtown. The evening escaped us and suddenly it was dinner time and we had no idea what to do. We did not even have a chance to yelp anything as we were in a small shopping mall. My friend looked up and say.."hey..how about Greek?!" And this my friends...is our adventure to Acropolis. I was leary of this plan due to the sketchy nature of the area and the kind of touristy set up of the restaurant. However...fear not! This is a great place. Just about as homey and Greek-y as a person could want. They have a yelp check in coupon for garlic knots that are definitely worth it! Huge salads, lots of lamb and some great anti pasta. I just wanted something light so the waiter recommended that I order the anti pasta with a side of lamb. It was a large portion of meat. Two of us both ate our fill and took home some lamb for the next day. Everything was fresh and the service was fast and friendly. While I might have been nervous at the beginning I was so thankful I braved this place. It has to be a local hang out as it was packed to the gills when we got there. We even had a wait so you know the food has to be good. Recommend if you are in the area! read more

We ordered takeout Saturday night while visiting the Asheville area. We had a thin crust vegetable lovers pizza, antipasto salad and greek salad. All three dishes were fabulous! Both of the salads were done in very traditional greek methods. Price is reasonable for the quality they deliver! We will certainly be back!! read more

Ordering online for pickup was easy and the service was nice and friendly. Sorry to say, I was very disappointed with the pizza itself, in fact, I have to say it was some of the worst pizza I have ever ordered/tasted, anywhere ... I found the crust to be extremely chewy and undercooked. Plus, all the toppings used for my Hawaiian specialty pizza were also lacking in flavor and tasted very cheap, although the price of the pie was not. Order Date: 1/19/2023 Order #: 21860626 1 x 16" Hawaiian Pizza $20.99 Traditional (Thin crust) read more

We stopped last night and had the best pizza ever! The service was fast, fresh and Delish! Mostly take out bc of the lack of folks wanting to work - like so many other places these days. But the accommodate by having outdoor dining and the bar is open if you want a beer or something to accompany the meal. Staff was so very friendly and helpful. Next time we are there - we will be back to try some of their other dishes offered and looked so yummy ! read more

Everybody is open for dine in except these guys, pandemic, worker shortage, everyone is dine in. Hours adjusted maybe but they're open. BEst of luck to you all read more

Update: Food was decent this go around. My grandmother enjoyed her veal dish; however, service was atrocious during this visit (this past Saturday). The server was snide and rude to both mother and my grandmother, which is just an absolute turn off for me. Unfortunately, I'm just not sure that I will return to this restaurant again. read more

We had a great night in with Acropolis pizza this week. My husband loves their pizza so he was happy but I'm a bigger fan of the Stromboli! Since we only had pizza I gave it a three. It was pretty cold when we got it and felt like it had been sitting for a while then reheated. It was our first takeout from them and we have had some better meals on site. Our grub hub driver was awesome and communicated a lot with us so great job to him. read more

We decided to stop in for lunch and it wasn't crowded at all like it usually is at night. We ordered thhe mozzarella sticks as our appetizer and they were delicious. The breading was crispy and light with delicious stringy cheese inside. The pizza was super cheesy which I love and super fresh. Great service for a good price. I'll definitely go again next time I'm in town read more

Ordered takeout from here and it wasn't too bad! The dough was a little under cooked which is weird for a thin crust pizza. I reheated it in my air fryer and it was perfect. They also forgot to give me my ice cream for my brownie sundae which was a bummer because I mainly ordered it because I was craving ice cream. read more

Love the baked spaghetti and the Greek salad. Since pandemic only take out. Dine-in only Sundays. Acropolis has been our family's favorite for many years. read more

Before Covid it was great! Now not so much. Ordered lasagna and it was salty and tasted like it had been reheated several times. Garlic knots we dry, burnt and stale. Fish tank looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a very long time, can only imagine what kitchen is like! The restaurant is only open for take out except for Sunday's, so when you walk in there is no one to greet you and I waited about 8 minutes for some to come up front and help me! We spent $75 and it was nasty! Will not be returning and do not recommend!! read more

The dining room is still closed. When you pick up your order they expect tips even though the prices have drastically increased. Great food but not good (fresh) driving it to my home. The pandemic is over it's time to open up. I won't support this place until they open up the dining room. read more
