Lamb Chops
Mike M.

Delicious as always. Ilios never disappoints. Best lamb chops in town and always friendly service.

And then there is more! Lamb that melts in your mouth!

WOW WOW the delicious varieties of tastes and textures are beyond amazing. Hossein the manager took care of my husband and me. His personality is full of positive energy and he really cares about you. He remembered my husband from two months ago when he was here with his work team. We just let him choose the Tapas, wine and beer. He brought us Ouzp to start off our fun dinner. We will always come back when we visit.

Baked leg of Lamb with Greek Pasta
Doug T.

Came to Eindhoven for a business trip and someone recommended Llio's. Supposed to have really good Greek food. So I was by myself and looking for an adventure. It was a Tuesday night and it was still pretty busy but got a nice seat overlooking the outside. They seated me fast but had to ask for a menu. Anyways, they give you a lemon liquor and I asked for a bottle water too. Anyways, I decided to start off with the Bruchetta with Tomato and basil. I got four piece and it had Tomato with green olives and sprinkled with olive oil. The bread wasn't hard like in the US but warm and had a nice crunch to it. It was so good. Excellent. Probably one of the best I've had. Of course it was gobbled up. Next I ordered a Baked Leg of Lamb with Greek pasta. It also comes with a side salad. The leg of Lamb was huge. Fall of the bone goodness. Really really good. The rice was outstanding too. Never had this rice before but I guess this is their Greek pasta. Really good. Then their side salad. It's a normal salad but the dressing is what made it. Very light and really tasty. Love the whole main course. Outstanding. Of course I can't leave here without dessert. One thing that caught my eye was the chocolate cake from Greece. Had to try it. Wasn't a normal cake. It was fluffy chocolate in the middle with a hard chocolate on the bottom dripping with chocolate syrup. Also with a scoop of ice cream and wip cream. Service was very European. Took a little while for a server to welcome me but the liquor helped. What I was told is that the server won't put your main dish in until they take away your appetizer dish. So i wasn't really rushed in or out and took a while to get my leg of Lamb but well worth it. So overall, excellent meal. Great food. Good service and a really fun atmosphere. Seemed like a small Greek house. Friendly service. Of course great desserts. Oh BTW, a couple of days later my co-workers heard about this place and I took them here. So went here twice in a week. Well worth it. I highly recommend this place. Enjoy I sure did.

The Paros platter: grilled meats: souvlaki, suzuki, schnitzel and gyro meat.

I've been coming to Ilio's ever since a co-worker met me here for dinner several years ago. They have a nice selection of Greek dishes to choose from that keep me coming back for more. For starters I like the melon with parmaham, carpaccio or the trio of tapenades. All three are good - but I like the tapenade the best. They have a lot of options to choose from for your main. I've never had anything here that I did not like - though I tend to gravitate to the grilled portion of the menu. Lamb chops, gyros and mega-souvlaki are all good. My all time favorite is the Paros: souvlaki, suzuki, schnitzel and gyro meat all served on one plate. Order this one when you have an appetite! They also have an assortment of sides to pick from - one if which is, of course, French fries. The service here can be hit and miss. Most of the time I don't have any problems, but every now and then it is slow for no apparent reason. I would probably have given them five stars if it weren't for this. Give them a try. It is a nice, quiet place that I find to be a step above some other places in atmosphere and food quality.

Grilled chicken breast with feta cheese, season vegetables and rice in tomatosauce and tjaziki on the side  Very delicious and healthy!

Had a lovely dinner, the food was very good!! I really enjoyed it, and everything was just perfect. The weather's were very sharp, and very nice atmosphere. This is the best greek restaurant I've ever been to! And they've a very extensive menu, so there's whatever you like.

The blonde lady bartender was kind of cold when I asked for a table saying "I'll check" and nothing more. The server rolled his eyes at me when I ordered still water. Not welcoming. Pretty does not a nice boy make. Fast service though. The space was nice, dimly lit. Busy for Tuesday for good reason. Food came out quickly. The man, I assume the manager who handled my bill was very kind and thanked me for coming in. I liked it better than Rodeo, a competing steakhouse nearby. (Although the steak was just as good as rodeo- the fries at rodeo didn't stand a chance to the delicious scalloped frites at Sopranos. ) reasonable pricing for the quality. If some of the staff was even mildly friendlier it would be 5 stars all the way, that was the only real negative. I would go again and probably will!

Came here on a Wednesday without a reservation and was seated with the indication that we'd have…read morejust over an hour before they'd have to give up the table for a reservation. As a result, I was expecting them to start rushing us through our meal, but it wasn't like that at all. They did promptly take our order, but after that they mostly left us to enjoy our meal. I think they have camera monitors behind the counter, which is great because then they don't clog up the walkways (the restaurant is pretty cramped), but also a little unfortunate because we ended up waiting on them to give us the check. I thought the steaks were decent, but I've definitely had better. I love that you can order a combination so you can try all the steak as well as lamb if you wanted. I was a little confused by the flags that came with our steak - one had the dollar sign and the other had a gun. Wait, am I still in the Netherlands? My favorite part of the meal was actually the fries. This place has the best fries hands down. If you want "can't miss" steak in the Netherlands, then I recommend Restaurant Wielinga in Leiden. They had the most mouth watering steak I've ever had!

Wow! Really a great evening out. Fantastic food!…read moreWe choose for the surprise dinner of 5 courses and in all honesty, every course was a pleasant surprise of true great explosions of flavors! We had a wine & dine option and every wine fitted the courses great. For one of the courses they were serving Chardonnay, and as I mentioned to the waiter that I am not a big fan of Chardonnay he first let me taste it, and after my "this is not really my kind of wine" he brought me a great alternative for that course in a Viognier. That is understanding service and acting on it. Since December they have a Michelin star, and they earn it big time. In contrary to other "star" restaurants where I have been before, they are relaxed and not too formal, they have exceptional variety (and knowledge of) the wine menu. And sure, they are not the cheapest to go to, but for the quality, variety and wines I feel they are really well priced! Would definitely recommend this place!

My review is based on the new Cedofeita location of Zarzo…read more I was greeted by Carlos, then his wife and son, the Chef. The front of the location is the bar which leads to the dining room, and even further to the terrace. Very welcoming appearance. Two of our party ordered the pork stew type dish with beans and tortillas. I ordered 3 beef and cheese tacos. The guacamole and chips were delicious, but a meager portion of chips served. The 3 salsas served with the chips were delicious but I missed the "pico de gallo" of my stateside years. Corn tortillas were homemade and the tacos were made with quality beef, seasoned and grilled well. Perfect street tacos! My friend's pork stew was good and seemed authentic to a region in Mexico. As a flan fan, I wanted to order but the restaurant became busy and the wife was trying to cover all the tables. I will order at my next visit because I am certainly coming back. The family story is charming as are each of the individuals. They put their heart into the food served. They are certainly a wonderful addition to the Cedofeita neighborhood. Please forgive my picture which I forgot to take until half done with my tacos! 8/10 Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Ambiance

In the mornings they have an AYCE Turkish breakfast which includes Turkish tea, a freshly made Turkish crepe with fresh cream and honey and fresh rolls. The buffet spread includes a variety of freshly made salads, cheeses, stews and spreads. It is an amazing amount of food and the buffet only costs €10.00 pp. We usually only go to pick up boxes of baklava, but we really enjoyed their breakfast the last time we visited. They however only speak Dutch and Arabic, but we manage to communicate with our broken Dutch. A real hidden gem in the Eindhoven area!

Seems to be a decent Turkish place as my friends have told me…read more As a vegetarian, I've only had the KIZARTMA PATATES (potatoes with eggplant, zuccini, pepper, garlic, yoghurt & some sauce). I really love it and I love how delicious it is without breaking my student bank account. The place is now divided into 2 locations that are very close to each other, where one is for meals and the other is for desserts. I've had some baklava and I think something other dessert there. They were good. Service is also good. The decor is pretty nice. I really love the Turkish tapestries and also the upholsteries on the chairs. With some Turkish tea, you will forget you are in Holland! :)

The last time we tried to eat here we were told they were fully booked and this time we saw several people turned away. This time around with a reservation, we were excited to eat here but the food felt very short of our expectations. The food was ok, there were some hits and lots of misses. Food: 3/5 We had the octopus stew and kibbeh as appetizers. The octopus was perfectly cooked, not rubbery or chewy, it was nice and tender - off to a good start! But it was bland, there was absolutely no flavor. The kibbeh was dry though the filling had good flavors and lots of potential. My husband had the lamb stew and it was just ok. If it wasn't for my main course, I would have scored this place 2 stars. I had the duck confit and it was cooked perfectly, meat was almost falling off the bone, tons of flavor, crispy skin. The roasted potatoes were delicious and the little salad balanced the fattiness. There was only 1 standout dish from 4, and with a menu that isn't very big, it seems that the odds are against you. Service: 2/5 Not much to say, standard Dutch service - slow, awkward. They also didn't really seem to know what they were doing. A large group of 15 walked in, they had reserved, and the waitstaff became extremely flustered - didn't you know they were coming? Atmosphere: 3/5 It is a very cool location and they have a beautiful table with various appetizers they assemble for your tasting platter. There is even a old CRT monitor converted into a flower pot. What I didn't like is that people would come in and just leave the door open. It is cold outside guys! The waitstaff just ignored it, so if you do not want to freeze you will have to get up and close the door each time some muppet does not close the door. Value: 2/5 At 25 euros/person for an appetizer and a main, it seemed reasonable but the portions are tiny and that didn't include drinks. We were quite hungry afterwards... I would recommend making a reservation, but with food like this, don't even bother coming. I'm not sure why it is so packed!

Kind staff, an enthusiastic chef and a nice wine list. I had some of the tastiest falafel I have…read moreever had and we were served some delicious pasta dishes and meze. Really worthwhile!
