Bakkhus Taverna - Greek Near Me - Kemah, Texas

We stopped in on a Sunday evening as we were visiting the Kemah Boardwalk and needed some dinner. As vegetarians, this place was listed as having many different meal options for us, and we found this to be true! My husband and I decided to share a small Greek salad, the Pasta Aglio and the Baklava cheese. The salad and pasta were both delicious, light yet filling and plenty for the two of us to share. The salad actually had SUPER green lettuce leaves, which was such a pleasant surprise. However, the Baklava cheesecake was pretty disappointing. It was a giant piece of plain cheesecake that had toppings on it from what seemed like a piece of baklava cake. Those toppings disappeared pretty quickly and that left us with a bunch of plain cheesecake. We were expecting the baklava flavors to be swirled into the cheesecake, which is why we found this to be disappointing. The service was pretty slow, which was surprising considering it was pretty empty as it was a Sunday night. Otherwise, it was a good experience and we would return if we ever happen to find ourselves in the area again. read more

Waitress was very nice co side g how busy it got w about 30 of us in our group. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat outside, although it was a bit chilly,it was a relaxing atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I enjoyed the salmon. It was tender and the sauce was delicious. The broccolini was a bit too crispy for me, but still delicious. Orzo was good, but I didn't care for the onions mixed in. It took away the taste of the orzo. I also took home baklava and the baklava cheesecake. Both were delicious. My husband doesn't normally eat cheesecake, but thought he would give this a try. He really liked it bc it was fluffier and not as dense as other restaurants. He did like the baklava, but thought it was too sweet. I actually enjoyed both desserts. read more

This place used to be the absolute best Greek in this area. Haven't been here for a couple of years. Gyro was BLEAK - meat was not even warm, it was crispy and dry. Pita seemed really dry too, also not warm. Barely any Tzatziki on gyro, and ones we got on side, zero flavor. Mykonos grilled chicken was ok, nothing fantastic. Not sure what happened, but certainly a bummer. [[HIGHLIGHT]]However, service was good, place is nice and has a great patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Husband and I enjoyed ourselves on the patio! They have a large patio that is equipped for all seasons and weather conditions.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They had music playing, it was not too loud either which is great to have conversations.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We loved the fried pita with our delicious fire feta! Has the right amount of spice and flavor! We also had their ribeye, split that along with two Greek salads! The ribeye was cooked to perfection and our salads were fresh and crisp! Alexa was our server and she was amazing! Very polite, friendly, and demure! Definitely recommend Bakkhus and they are a BAFL member, so we received a 15% off of our food discount!! read more

First of all, so many people have recommended this place for crawfish. It is a different kind of flavor that we did not like at all. I guess it's an acquired taste because it's just not it for us. We also ordered the calamari , the cheese appetizer that they bring table side and put a flame to it. And my son in law got the grilled chicken sandwich. Out of everything the calamari I think was the best. Anyway we at least wanted to give it a try since a lot of people recommend it. But we won't go back. So far the best tasting crawfish we have tried outside of Louisiana is crawfish shack in Crosby. Honestly this is a Greek restaurant, stick to the Greek food and leave the crawfish to the Cajuns read more

Well, I know they are closing after the new year, so just wanted to eat there one final time. Have eaten here every month or 2 for 15 years and always great. Tried calling 6 times between 2:30 - 3 pm December 31, 2025 to place a to go order cause wife is sick. Nobody can seem to answer the phone. Guess the employees are done. read more

This is a great place for Greek food, and we tend to eat here at least once a month. The gyros are pretty good, but I've also tried every shrimp dish. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service is okay, and the restaurant has a nice, homey vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All of their hummus options are yummy. read more

I love this place first of all. All employees are fantastic. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's always clean inside and out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Crawfish is one of the best in this area. Everything from steak nights which is by far one hell of a deal. The pork chop deal also amazing. To the all you can eat pasta. I'm a big fan of the Fire feta and the Greek salads. Souvlaki is my go to for the meal. There is not an item on the menu that is bad. Brunch on Sundays one of the best in this area too. Check it out read more

I tried their amazing Avgolemono soup and it was very tasty! It reminded me of having it while we toured Greece. My husband had a chicken gyro and he loved it which was nice because he's a picky eater. We'll definitely be visiting again and trying one of their many food offerings! read more

The steak night deal here is almost unbeatable. $20 for a bottomless salad, delicious steak and a side is a great deal. The staff is extremely friendly and. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is very nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I highly recommend. read more

This place is Texas-Greek fusion for food and atmosphere. Monday steak night has TONS of regulars. Their soups are extremely underrated. Gyro chili is probably the most unique. They typically have 3-6 available. The fire feta comes as a dip, in the gyro burrito, and in the Trojan Poppers, which is another very unique item. They mix the fire feta with gyro and stuff jalapeños with it. Sunday brunch is not as crowded as other places, and the omelets have unique ingredients available: gyro, jalapeño, fire feta... In general, their feta is WAY better than other places. Their boil for crawfish, crab, and shrimp is very spicy and popular. The patio is nice when the weather is to your liking. There's a big TV behind the bar and another one facing the dining room. Music is usually red dirt or mainstream country. If they have a special, get it! read more

Bakkhus Taverna - First customer at Sunday brunch. Since they weren't busy yet I asked for creamy chipotle on the potatoes. Nice presentation. - Greek Near Me - Kemah, Texas

I was craving a Greek salad with a warm pita so we chose this place for lunch an a Friday. It wasn't real crowded so we were lucky enough to find a close parking spot. We were greeted, seated and served pretty quickly. This is a cute place and staff if friendly. My Greek salad and pita were very good. Hubby ordered the americano burger and Parmesan fries. His fries were excellent as I can attest to. His burger was very dry. He couldn't eat it. read more

I was a visitor in the general area and needed to grab a quick lunch. Someone suggested Bakkhus Taverna so I decided to give it a try. Our table shared a hummus plate where we got veggies and pita bread. I also got the grilled chicken pita and subbed avocado for the cheese. It came with fries. Honestly everything was good. It was a lot of food. It came out nice and hot. And the service was so fast. Our waitress was a pro when it came to service. Next time, I might try a salad because of how stuffed I was haha. read more

Great service and food. We came here to cool off before going to Kemah Boardwalk. The waitress was fast and attentive. I ended up settling on the Mykono sandwich, and the sweet and spicy of the jalapenos and pineapple on my chicken was heaven! The Medusa was another one we tried and came smothered in different cheeses and jalapenos for a spicy not so sweet flavor. This one was a bit more on the average side. Mykono was definitely the winner. They came with a little tin of fries on the side. I also got a great house special on the Pinot Grigio glass on this visit. Overall, great customer service, environment and food. read more

Awesome food great wait staff!! Highly recommended!! Great food menu that has something for everyone!!

I'll stick to the seafood. I got the prime rib sandwich. It was tough and over cooked. Almost tasted microwaved. My date got the chicken which was good but the spinach was horrible. We wanted the Tuesday night special (a pork chop) but we were told it would be almost an hour to make. (There was only 2 other families there) overall really disappointed read more

Absolutely loved this place! We were referred by the pub around the corner. Most places in the area require to be 21 after 4PM, so they suggested we tried this place. I hadn't had Greek food in forever (probably 8 years, since I moved from Europe to the States) and this place was very nostalgic. The Greek food was just as I remembered it back home, fresh and delicious! This place is affordable, considering its location and within walking distance from Kemah Board. read more

Just went there a few days ago and I didn't find that the experience was much to write home about. The waitstaff was mediocre, not as attentive as I would have liked, we saw our waitress once for drink refills after the food drop off, the next visit was to take plates and drop off the check. We started with calamari. It lacked seasoning for my taste. The batter itself was nice, mostly crispy. Squid itself mildly firm but not off-putting My wife and I both ordered the gyro sandwich with parmesan fries. I was surprised at how small the sandwiches actually were. Picture included. The fries were nice and crispy and the parmesan is a nice touch. Not their fault but the music coming from next door was drowning out the atmosphere of our restaurant. Loudly. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. Calamari, two sandwiches, two diet Cokes, $36 Three stars. But an extra star given for the fact they allow dogs out on the patio. That's very much appreciated! read more

7/17/21 we were there. This was the only restaurant that did not turn my family away with a party of 20 They split the party in 2 tables of 10 people. And they were very accommodating to us. It was my Sister in laws Bday and the food was great. I personally asked for a calamari well done as an appetizer. & The Parmesan fries are amazing. The drinks were okay too I drank a Paloma tequila, the Rumcolada and S3xOn the beach. Will personally say that the Paloma was my fave of the evening. Our server was great! Will definitely go back.

I honestly love this place for their patio seating and ambiance. Once you enter the restaurant, you just feel stress free and in a completely different space. I been here only two times and both times were amazing. The service is great and both my waitresses from both times went above and beyond for us. I got got salmon Grecco both times and honestly it's my favorite. I haven't tried anything else because I liked it so much. Huge seafood person and the fish is fresh and taste good. The zucchini was cooked perfectly and the rice was great. 5/5 Their desserts are amazing. I think I tried 3/5 desserts they had and all three were amazing. 5/5 Their appetizers were amazing. I had Kalamari (5/5) and the one entree with gyro and flaming cheese (5/5) (I forgot the entrees name) but it was soooooo good. I loved it. My favorite Greek place so far thanks to a friends recommendation. My foodie friend and I will always be back. read more

It was a beautiful day to sit on the patio with friends to have a lite snack and a cocktail. Our server was lovely so no complaints there. We ordered the Greek Bar Trash which is Kalamari, Shrimp and Scallops. Grilled and Brushed with Seasoned Olive Oil and Finished with Fresh Lemon Juice. What little portion we received was tasty. I've never seen such a small portion. Prior orders have come to the table teeming with food. This plate was too embarrassing to serve. We each got about two bites and that's it. I wish I'd taken a photo. I have to get better at this. Would go and order the same thing, in hopes of receiving what is normally served. Perhaps this day was just a one off but it was disappointing all the same. read more

Great location in Kemah. We were warmly greeted, always a plus. Our server was a doll and took such good care of us from drinks all the way to the to go box. The flaming cheese was great! My first experience with it, so I can't compare it, but it was good! I really enjoyed all of the food and recommend trying! read more

Ella was a the best server I've ever had. She was funny, suggested me things i would've never gotten and loved them all. It was my first time in and i didn't have that high of expectations because let's face it it's in kemah near the boardwalk so normally the servers are just rushing to get you in and out and the food is overpriced and not good. Where that was all flipped around. The food wasn't the greatest but it was decent and priced decent. But what truly made my visit so amazing was Ella. I felt like i was at Disney land and having a dinner with a show , dare i saw a real life Disney princess Ella. She went above and beyond. If you're ever in kemah and go to this place ask for Ella to be your server read more
