7/5/26: After seeing Saloniki's frozen yogurt all over Instagram, I finally decided to give it a…read moretry. We ordered two flavors: Olive Oil & Sea Salt and Caramel & Pistachio, both priced at $7. I'll admit, it's a fun concept and a nice addition to the menu. The Olive Oil & Sea Salt was refreshing and had a subtle savory touch that made it different from your typical frozen yogurt. The Caramel & Pistachio was my favorite of the two, with the crunchy pistachios adding a nice texture and the caramel giving it just enough sweetness. That said, I had a hard time justifying the price. While the frozen yogurt tasted good, the serving size was fairly small, and I never really felt like I was getting $7 worth of dessert. It felt more like an Instagram-worthy upsell than something I'd go out of my way to order again. I'm glad I tried it because I was curious after seeing so many posts online, and now I can officially check it off my list. If you're already at Saloniki and want to try something a little different, I'd say it's worth ordering once just for the experience. Overall, I'd give it 3/5 stars. It's refreshing, unique, and a fun twist on frozen yogurt, but I don't think the value matches the price. I probably wouldn't come back specifically for the frozen yogurt again.

Never say no to bread. It sets the tone…read more Zucchini chips came out first - crispy, salty, and a real portion. Business. Then the Paros IPA - crisp, refreshing, and immediately made it clear I would have 2. Lamb meatballs followed - more oval than ball, but I'm not here to police shapes. Sat on a bed of tzatziki. No complaints. Moussaka was next: warm, rich, comforting. I love beef and potatoes. Then pork vs. chicken souvlaki. Waiter warned: pork's fattier, chicken's his preference. Got both. He was right - chicken wins. Only critique: One less dish and we would've had room for baklava... Would go back. Would order less. Would always say yes to bread.

The waitress walked us through the menu recommending her favorites as well as explaining the specials. It was recommended to have 2-3 small plates per person. The food quality was very good and their take on traditional greek dishes was creative! I highly recommend checking this place out whenever you are in the South End. Note: Inside seating is very cramped. If it is a nice day out, I would recommend grabbing a seat outside.

I LOVE THE GREEK DONUTS AT SALONIKI GREEK! Omg! I'm…read moreabsolutely obsessed w/ their donuts, specifically the cinnamon + honey one. Saloniki Greek is a local chain in the Boston Area that was founded in 2016, w/ this being their first location! Now they have expanded w/ 5 locations total-- Fenway, Newbury St/Back Bay, Downtown, Cambridge (MIT), & Cambridge (Harvard Sq). The first time I had it was at their Newbury St location, & it was my first time the other day trying it from here... safe to say they definitely NAILED IT! I actually think this time around, Fenway made the donuts better hahaha. It was pretty chill the day we visited so ordering was a breeze & took ~5ish minutes for our donuts to be ready. They come piping hot & are the perfect dessert for after ANY meal. I've had their gyros before but always find myself coming back for their Greek donuts, highly recommend! ***Also, if you have a Student ID, you can get a free order of Greek fries if you order either a salad, sandwich, or plate. ***

Aceituna Grill is a small, local chain in the Boston area with four locations. The menu has three main Mediterranean options (pita roll-up, rice plate, salad plate) where you can mix and match with different proteins and sides. I ordered a salad plate with falafel for protein. It came with pita bread and two sides so I got hummus and fried cauliflower. Everything was fresh and it was a TON of food for $15ish which you can easily make into two meals. We ordered at the counter and ate in the restaurant. Service was quick and the restaurant was clean. I highly recommend if you're looking for a healthy food option to check out Aceituna Grill!

The format is build-your-own bowl or pita, similar to other assembly-style restaurants, but with bold Mediterranean flavors and plenty of fresh toppings to work with. The ordering line moves efficiently, even during busy lunch hours. The space is clean and modern, with a casual atmosphere that makes it easy to grab food to-go or sit down for a quick bite. Staff are usually friendly and generous with portions, especially when it comes to the dips and toppings. The menu offers a solid variety of bases like rice, greens, or lentils, along with proteins such as grilled chicken, lamb meatballs, and falafel. The real highlight is the spreads and toppings, hummus, harissa, tzatziki, roasted vegetables, pickled onions, and more which add layers of flavor and texture. It's easy to customize depending on whether you want something lighter or more filling. Portions are satisfying, though the cost can add up depending on your choices. Overall, CAVA is a reliable option when you're craving something flavorful but not too heavy. It's especially convenient for a quick lunch or casual dinner, and the customizable format makes it easy to switch things up each visit.
