    Pita

    The food was delicious. I had the complementary pita, the Brussel sprouts and the chicken skewer, all I would order again. The ambiance is very chill, like you're at the beach music. It is baby/kid friendly. The service was good she was the hostess, waiter& bartender. I give her lots of kudos for wearing multiple hats.

    Lovely decor and olive trees

    Illios Taverna is a Greek restaurant in the Pelham Bay section of the Bronx on Middletown Road. It is one of the many restaurants and pizzerias in this community. In the past when I wanted Greek food my friends and I would travel to Astoria, Queens. We don't have to do that anymore. I went with my bae this time but the next time I am going back with my friends. I enjoyed the food that much that I want to share the experience. I made a reservation for 5:30. We arrived a little after but we were welcomed warmly by a handsome server. We were seated in a great location with an excellent view of the restaurant and near a window showing people walking by. I was very comfortable. We didn't wait long for the server to come to our table. We were asked for our preference of water. I asked for sparkling water. We were served Zagori and it was delicious. I could tell the difference between Zagori and Schweppes sparkling water which is what I drink mostly. I kid you not. It was refreshing. As I was sipping the sparkling water I looked around the restaurant. I liked what I saw very much. Actually I noticed the decor as soon as I walked in especially the color of the walls. It reminded me of a soft enriched Tuscan beige with lines of gray on the upholstery. However the lighting gave off a warm glow. There are two realistic looking olive trees as part of the decor to remind the diners of Greece. I am including some pictures of Illios Taverna so you can see for yourself. We ordered beef stew as our entree It was delicious. We, also ordered brussel sprouts, pita bread and two delicious drinks from the bar. One a mock cocktail and the other a tequila cocktail. The mock cocktail had real ginger as one of the ingredients. Two great drinks. I enjoyed my dinner date because of my Babe and the delicious food and the ambiance of the restaurant. It's a new restaurant. I wish them longevity. Good luck.

    So good to see a beautiful new restaurants close to home. Tried Ilios Taverna on the Wednesday night with a friend. The decor is gorgeous and the place was very clean. We were seated right away and given menus. The chairs were more comfortable than they looked. The server explained the specials to us then gave us time to look over the menus . I went with the Giant beans and Shrimp with a side of sauteed spinach. My friend ordered the Branzino with lemon potatoes. We both devoured our food, no notes to be made. For dessert we shared the Baklava and the Galatopita. I left the restaurant stuffed and happy. Apparently they have Jazz music on Fridays so I will definitely be back.

    This restaurant is definitely gorgeous, but I probably won't return. The waiter took our order fairly quickly, but we waited nearly 45 mins for our appetizers. We ordered the mussels and fried vegetable chips, which were decent. I ordered the grilled branzino and my cousin ordered one of their specials with beans and shrimp. Unfortunately, both my fish and her shrimp were overcooked. It took another 20-25 mins to get someone's attention to ask for the bill. The drinks were pretty good, though.

I see why this place has such low reviews, the common sense and customer service are nonexistent here, so I suggest everyone avoid this place and go somewhere where your money is valued. A friend suggested this place and I should have spent my Friday night elsewhere after a long week, after this gross and terrible experience. I presented my ID 4 different times and closed out my tab after I consumed 1 $18 drink, and my real out of state ID was put under a microscope. Additionally, another customer has the same Florida ID I had and the bartenders were comparing both!! The same ID I used to get on a flight. Are you telling me a US Government agency can't detect a fake, and a small bar in the Bronx can? After the 4th and final time, the (Andre L & team) bartenders told me to wait for the manager to come and resolve this issue. Why would I waste more of my time after my night was ruined to further "resolve" this non-issue? The pride flag out in front is clearly not representative of their all-inclusivity if they're accusing a Black woman of using a fake ID.

I wanted to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday on Saturday, May 16th, and after searching a few places, I settled on Sobro Garden especially after finding out it was one of Jimmy's spots. We celebrated with 30 of our closest family and friends, and it truly became a night he said he'll never forget. Where do I start? Let me begin by saying Sobro Garden, you guys did NOT disappoint!! First and foremost, thank you Jimmy, because when I tell you this man went above and beyond to make everyone feel like family at his establishment, I truly mean it. Jimmy personally checked in with everyone going table to table making sure everyone was enjoying themselves, asking if everything was good from the drinks, atmosphere, music and food was to satisfaction because he genuinely wanted everyone to enjoy and especially told my husband it's a blessing to hit a milestone, celebrating with family and friendsand hope his place made it a memorable one. Jimmy is truly a perfectionist at heart. A host beyond host!! Even taking pictures with everyone. He took several pictures with my husband and even accidentally walked away with his iPhone for a moment & my husband allow his too he didn't realize it was his phone until I told him. Our maître d', Suhaily, was such a beautiful soul inside and out. She made the entire booking process for my husband's event feel effortless. She guided me step by step, helped choice a menu plan, stayed in communication the whole time and was so patient, kind and welcoming the moment I arrived. Her smile and warm hearted present made the experience even better. She greeted me as if we knew each other for years and our waitress and waiter? Absolutely AMAZING. My husband, our guests and I were attended to with such PRISTINE EXCELLENCE all night long. Now let's talk about the FOOD... because BABY!!! Everything was DELICIOUS. I can't even single out one item because every dish hit the spot. Everyone at our tables ordered something different, so we all got to taste a little bit of everything from the pernil, steak & onions, grilled salmon, chicken, arroz con gandules, fried fish, steak skewers and BABY... those famous Crack Wings Rub had everybody wanting to eat their fingers To top it all off, the highlight of the night was seeing Melle Mel celebrating his birthday from the day before and actor Darrin Henson, so handsome in person was also in the building. Both were so down-to-earth and when Melle Mel grabbed the mic, he absolutely brought the house down!! Thank you again to EVERYONE at Sobro Garden for making my husband's 50th birthday celebration such an UNFORGETTABLE Experience. We will DEFINITELY be Back!
