lamb chops are the best service very good we go there once a month our friends always join us read more

Best Greek restaurant in south Florida !! Fast service , awesome food. Nothing special about the décor but you're not there for that. Come early cause he especially busy at dinner time read more

Why go to Greece when you can just go to Chris' Taverna? Their food is fantastic, it's a great casual dining option, and they have nice large portions. Get the wheel burrow because you'll be rolling out of there. I'm pretty sure my boyfriend would leave me for the lamb shank if given the option and their gyro is bomb.com. Prices have gone up but that hasn't deterred us one bit. Eat in house or take it to go - either way, you won't be sorry you tried this. read more

We have been going to Chris's Taverna for many years! The food and service is always great! Best Greek food in Florida!

On a bustling Thursday evening, the fam and I arrived at 6:25 pm to find only outdoor seating (dog friendly) available, which they said would be no wait. They mentioned a 20-25 minute wait if we wanted indoor seating, but it turned out to be just 5 minutes. We were seated at the very back, which I didn't mind at all. The cool ambiance and lovely paintings made the experience enjoyable. Our server, Lucia (Lucy), was quick and attentive. Here's what we ordered: Elenis Combo (5/5): Moussaka, Pastitsio, and Spanakopita. All three dishes had great flavor, with my favorite being the Pastitsio - layers of ground beef, macaroni, and bechamel sauce. Grecian Platter: Lamb chops, loukaniko (sausage), gyro meat, and souvlaki meat. Both dishes included a Greek salad, pita, and tzatziki. The portions were generous, easily serving 3 of us twice over, making it sufficient for a party of 5-6 people! We walked out around 745pm and majority of the indoor seats were open! read more

Feta late than never, it's time to pay homage to the best Greek food in PBC IMHO. Apollo-gies for the chessy puns in advance. The ambiance is casual and inviting, you can almost hear "I can be your gyro babyyyy" playing in the background faintly. Service is always fast and friendly. Now the food, first off, they drown you in fresh pita bread and an ocean of tzatziki sauce. If that wasn't enough for you, the portions are generous and the food is delicious. My go-to is the classic gyro and feta fries but everything is worth a try :) read more

Food was delicious. Had the lunch special. Added grilled chicken to my salad and their tzatziki sauce was incredible.

2nd review of Chris' Taverna. Consistently good. We enjoyed eating al fresco even though it was "chilly" (by Florida standards) as we sat between the heaters. read more

I'm so sorry that I live 4 hrs away from this fabulous Greek food. What Chris's Taverna lacks in ambiance it makes up for in delicious Greek food. The place is nothing to look at with your basic tables and chairs mostly grouped in fours. The service was friendly & efficient on this Sunday evening. We had no wait for a table but as we were leaving @7 pm it started to get really busy with a line out the door. Entrees come with a few slices of pita bread and a tasty tzatziki. They also come with a choice of two sides. Portions are large here & unless you have a huge appetite I'd suggest sharing. I had a side Greek salad which was plenty and the appetizer of shrimp saganaki. It was very large big enough for an entree. The shrimp were large and perfectly cooked. It was in a sauce of onions and tomatoes with garlic and then the feta was baked on top. Perfectly delicious! My dining companions had a shrimp wrap and a Grecian platter. The Grecian platter was HUGE and could have been split more than 2 ways. We took home most of it & it must have weighed 4 lbs. even after some was eaten. I highly recommend this gem of a place. read more

Great moussaka !. The portion is so large that we always take half home, and reheat it in the oven the next day for a second wonderful meal.

Nice friendly and good fresh food. Portions are generous. I had chicken gyro and side of hummus. I was satisfied and full.

Wow! Talk about deliciousness on a plate! I ordered the Shrimp over Greek salad and let me tell ya - My shrimp were so flavorful and well seasoned. They had that perfect 'Pop' without being overcooked. I thought the dressing could have used a little more vinegar, and citrus...but I mixed in the tzatziki sauce with the salad which was a great compliment. The pita was so tender and soft, the salad had a bountiful amount of tomatoes, cucumbers,olives, onions and yummy pepperocinis, JUST the way I like it. A perfect amount of feta and a stuffed grape leaf. The waiter said the desserts were homemade, and I really wanted to try the baklava but I was so full I couldn't eat it right away, but I had to have it! So I waited a few hours. WELL, it was sooooo good I was drinking the syrup. Phenomenal Baklava. Worth way more than it cost. For a shrimp salad, drink, and dessert it came out to $32 with tax. Honestly I think this was the best meal of my trip. The service was helpful and quick, and the restaurant is low key - not fancy or stuffy. Just great food and relaxing. Indoor/outdoor seating, and very clean. I Will be returning when I visit the area again and tell my friends who are local about Chris'! read more

Chris' Taverna - Gyro Salad & Chicken salad. - Greek Near Me - Boynton Beach, Florida

We have been to their original location in Lake Worth many times. This is a much smaller restaurant also in a shopping center. Very nice wall murals of Santorini. They start you with a plate of pita bread and tzatziki sauce, definitely the best thing. My wife wasn't very hungry so she ordered the Souvlaki Wrap appetizer. Just fair. I tried the Souvlaki Wrap , chargrilled chunks of marinated pork with lettuce, tomatoes, onions & tzatziki sauce. Served with a choice of Greek salad or French fries. The pork was tough and hard to chew. Not good. read more

I've gotten takeout from here a couple of time, but I do have to say the food is a little better when eating in, you can also avoid all the styrofoam containers that way. The restaurant is casual, with a bunch of tables out front, they have some fans setup so in the evening it was nice out there. Service was friendly and efficient. The baba ghanoush was a super tasty appetizer, and I really enjoyed my branzino entrée. There was a ton of food, we both took a lot of leftovers home with us. read more

So, come whenever I'm in the area for lunch, always a good experience. This weekend we were going to my mother in law for Mothers Day and wanted to cater for the group. I was a little hesitant because they don't have a dedicated catering menu. I called, staff had George the manager call be back and he asked about what we had in mind. Well, it was a home run. A great spread, plenty of great quality choices and within our budget. Every single person commented on the quality/variety of the food. Great job Chris' Taverna, made some new Greek food fans and the rest of us happy. read more

The food is so good you'll forget to take pictures! We order the gyro platter and get side salad and Greek fries. The complimentary tzatziki and pita are an amazing start to your meal. The pita is always warm and the tzatziki is punchy with garlic. It's the best tzatziki I've ever had. The salad always has the freshest ingredients. The tomatoes and cucumbers are so flavorful and they put a ton of feta on the salad. The gyro meat is perfectly cooked with crispy brown edges. We share this platter for two people and still have leftovers. It's a no frills dining room with tight tables but the service is always great. read more

The food was exceptional--flavorful, fresh, and generously portioned. Every dish we tried impressed. The hummus was creamy and well-seasoned, and the spanakopita, gyro plate, and salads were all vibrant and satisfying. A special mention goes to the baked lemon herb potatoes--possibly the best I've ever had. It's a small, modest spot with no standout decor, but it was very clean and well-kept. While it may not be the kind of place you go for the setting, it makes up for that in other ways. The service was truly outstanding. Our server was patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful with recommendations. He took the time to explain flavor profiles and made the experience smooth and enjoyable. An 8/10 experience--definitely worth the visit. Great food, excellent service, and good value for the money. I'd happily return if I'm in the area again. read more

Best Greek Food south of Astoria Queens been coming here since 1994. Ive tired almost item on the menu all top are notch quality

Came here for lunch with my bestie. It wasn't super crowded so we had a choice for seating. Sweetest waitress took our drink order and recommended dishes. I stuck with my old faithful gyro wrap and a side of Greek salad. We dug right into the warm pita bread and creamy cucumber tzatziki sauce that comes as a starter with every meal. It's hard to not eat more than one piece but I have to pace myself so I have room for my actual meal. Greek salad is always so fresh and crunchy and a good portion to share. I was pretty full by the time my gyro came out but I still managed to take a few bites of the succulent beef and lamb mixed meat that just pours out of the pita wrap. I had to force myself to stop munching on the Greek French fries. Who can say no to fries with feta cheese. Can't wait to eat the rest of my gyro wrap and fries later! read more

Service is quick and friendly. The restaurant is always packed to the hilt. The food is very good; and large portions. I love the lamb chops and my wife loves bronzino. There are many choices of Greek food. I would tell you to try this restaurant. There is outside dining. read more

Great service Delicious food Large portions Excellent salad Tasty sides Definitely will return read more

Such friendly staff and vibe. Delicious, fresh food. Wonderful local gem. Don't miss it.

Great casual Greek. Huge portions even off the lunch menu. The Boynton location is the smaller one with just a few outside tables, but the food is just as fresh and delicious. If you're in the area and want great Greek - don't miss it! read more

good food and service. We usually sit outside place always busy but not long wait. I don't need to say more but stupid yelp needs 85 characters read more

Another weekend exploring another city in Florida. We ended up in Palm Beach Gardens looking around and as noon approached we hit yelp only to discover that there wasn't very many restaurants in the area and what was there, didn't have the best ratings. This lead me to start looking for somthing interesting on our way home and this is how we found Chris's Taverna. Their ratings on Yelp are good, especially when you figure out that there are two of these restaurants and combined they have more than 1500 reviews and they are both well over 4.5 stars. The food here is excellent and the portions are huge. Initially we were a bit set back since we were not expecting most entrees to be north of $20 but when you see the portion size and taste the quality of the food, this place offers a great value We shared the Gyro Platter with two sides and chose the Lemon Potatoes and the Orzo with tomato sauce. We ended up with enough left overs for at least one if not two more lunches! Everything we had was obviously home made and make sure you ask for extra Tzatziki Sauce, it was the best Tzatziki Sauce I have had since my last trip to Greece. read more

Everyone loves Chris' Taverna and it's no wonder! From the friendly wait staff willing to explain each dish, to the lively Greek music playing in the background, to the huge wall murals that make you feel like you're sitting at a cafe in Greece... it's always a great meal here. - Sit down and you're brought complimentary warm pita and a side of their delicious tzatziki. - We started tonight with the Saganaki. Sheep's cheese cooked on a griddle til golden brown and crusty, served with grilled tomatoes and diced pimento. - I had the Souvlaki plate. Juicy chunks of marinated pork overflowed my plate, accompanied by garlicky baked lemon herb potatoes and string beans in an amazing tangy tomato sauce. - My lovely dining companion had the Octopus salad and the only negative of the night as the delicious blackened skin and suction cups and been peeled off. Still it was delicious and fork tender, but we did wish for a bit of the char. read more

Consistently the best gyro in town. Give you enough meat to make two gyros. Always fresh and hot. Great service, humble atmosphere.

You MUST try the lamb chops! Out of this world. And lemon potatoes!!! The service is quick and the ambience is very casual Greek dining.

First time dining in, ordered takeout twice. Plenty of parking, long hours, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. Food They started us with their fantastic tzatziki sauce, which started us off in the right direction. They gave us so much that we put it on everything we ordered. It might be why we enjoyed our meal. Shrimp s-something Yummy red sauce, light in flavor, but the shrimp are large and a shareable portion. Gyro platter- comes with two sides. We choose eggplant, my husband's favorite, and lemon potatoes, my favorite. A very generous portion of meat, potato, and sides. They didn't charge for ordering an extra pita, which is made fresh. The potatoes were huge and didn't have much lemon seasoning as you would expect with Greek lemon potatoes. The meat was glistening and cooked to perfection. Overall, very good. I would compare it to gyromania as far as flavor goes. Not out of this world fantastic, but it is good. What would make it five stars? More seasoning on their shrimp and lemon potatoes. Large quantities are nice, but the consistent seasoning wasn't there for me with the side items. read more

. I was so happy with the amount of good, fresh food. I was also happily surprised that they brought the food almost all at the same time. I was not happy that they stuffed us into a corner tables outside. read more

This was fantastic. I am Greek and it's hard to find any authentic Greek places outside of my own home. Absolutely delicious. I don't live in this area but if I did I would eat here many times during the week. Will recommend to my friends that live in the area. read more

Food excellent as well as the service. Plenty to take home. A very homey atmosphere. Highly recommended

Visited in a Saturday evening, the place was packed and very loud. The food and service was good and portions are generous but the atmosphere is more suited for lunch than a dinner with friends since you can't understand what the other people at the table are saying due to the loud atmosphere. Would not return for dinner. read more

Great food. Really authentic Greek food. Portions are massive. Service was great. Very busy place. read more

Chris' Taverna has a well-deserved reputation for excellent food and service. Always efficient and bringing free hummus and pita to the table sets the tone. They are consistently courteous and helpful, although sometimes it gets very busy. I like their pastichio!! It's nothing glamorous, but provides good portions for a parking lot view! read more

The food is amazing here The house made tzatziki is the best I've tried yet. The pitas served with them are warm and buttery. The entrees were all great, I've tried several read more

Who been to their sister restaurant in Lake Worth many times this is the first time we have been to the one in Boynton not much atmosphere, but I must say the waiter Trevor was an exceptionally good waiter. The food was good. I had a spinach, pie and Greek salad We also have the.Elena combo absalad with shrimp lentil soup everything was very good This is more of a neighborhood stop by or a takeout restaurant then their sister one in Lake Worth but the food is good. read more

My wife and I are new to the area and wanted a nice spot to sit down. She found Chris' and I couldn't be happier - The staff were friendly and attentive without crowding you. The restaurant was clean and quiet, even with almost every table filled. Our food was fresh and cooked to perfection, nothing seemed like it came out of a freezer. Already planning a dinner date with the in-laws to show them this spot. A+ Greek joint. read more

Chris' Taverna - Hummus & Greek Salad - Greek Near Me - Boynton Beach, Florida

Oh where have you been all my life?! This place was crazy busy and it took a while for someone to take our order. My husband ordered spinach pie and a side Greek salad. I ordered the octopus Greek salad. My husband side salad came out first. As always, he gives me his Kalamata olives. They were so good! There was also a little grape leaf roll on the salad and he gave it to me too. Of course they're all the other things that are around a Greek salad on his side salad. My Greek salad came out and I was blown away. I also got several of the Kalamata olives and a little grape leaf roll as well. The octopus was perfectly cooked. It was so easy to cut and chew. I looked around the restaurant and it looks like about half of the tables had a grilled octopus Greek salad. Clearly this is a specialty of theirs! The only bad news was we discovered this place the night before we left to go back home from our vacation in Florida. The good news is we do come to Florida about twice a year so I can't wait to come back! read more
