    I do not understand the less-than-stellar reviews. The Greek Chicken is juicy and delicious; there are many options for sides which include healthy options such as mixed vegetables and a Greek salad (the Greek dressing is superb), and everything is very well seasoned. The place is particularly clean, well-lit, roomy and welcoming, service is friendly and helpful, the price is right and the comes out quickly.

    The OLDER female cashier who might be the owner has bad customer service. On multiple occasions I've had to correct my order because of wrong order input and NOT due to the cooks. This lady will miss or wrongly input an order and claim you're the reason instead of self accountability. Not only that, when she gets corrected she rolls her eyes and gets animated to the point it's as if she's shaming you. Not a good feeling. She also let some cop say some super racist comment about her cooks in the back and shrugged it off like nothing and smiled. I feel sorry for the younger cashier and cooks in the back having to deal with this. After reading other reviews on here and on google, it's clear this has been a trend with this lady and probably will not stop so I give this place one star which is not to be reflected off of the cooks. I give them 5 out of 5 stars. Fire that old cashier lady already. It's overdue.

    They have a full menu with something for everyone, plus they have value meals.

    Cute Clean Place! Great service. I took 5 teenagers that couldn't decide on what they wanted. Cashier was so patient and polite . Food was ready quick, not to fast. Everything tasted great. This place is decorated with the cutest little signs . They have a TV. Great gathering place for friends. There is a parking lot . They are located just west of Kostner on Fullerton in Chicago. We will definitely come again.

    Chicken gyro plate, not good the vegetables are not grilled they look like pre frozen mix. The sauce taste like honey mustard mayo eww!

    Raw cheeseburgers! Both of them! Had to throw them away and wasted my money. Yes order was ready fast but if the cooking is compromised then take ur time and DO IT RIGHT!!! Hot dogs burned, BURNED!! And the older white lady always has a frown. It's kinda annoying. Save your money because you will be disappointed.

The moment I stepped inside, I felt like I had been transported to a small Greek taverna. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and our server was incredibly friendly and welcoming. One of the highlights for me was being able to order and converse in Greek, it made the experience feel that much more authentic and special. Of course, I couldn't decide on just one dish, so I had to order a little bit of everything. Why not? The saganaki was absolutely delicious and is definitely a must-try. The avgolemono was decent and comforting, though it wasn't quite as memorable for me. The pastitsio was a bit of a mix. The flavor was delicious and packed with that classic Greek comfort-food goodness, but unfortunately, the béchamel was overcooked and had become too firm. Overall, between the friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, and flavorful food, I had a very good experience at Greek Islands. There are still plenty of classic dishes I'd like to try, so I wouldn't hesitate to come back the next time I'm in Chicago.

Dresscode: Smart Casual / Casual Noise Level: Medium (it gets buzzy after 5:30pm) Thursday night Happy Hour was lively, so it took about 10-15 minutes for someone to come around, but service was attentive once we got going. The food is where Ēma really shines. From the Happy Hour menu, the Charred Eggplant Hummus and Crispy Potatoes were generously portioned and great for sharing. On the main menu, the Indian-Mediterranean fusion Bhel Hummus was a party for my taste buds, while the Hot Honey Halloumi and Chicken Kefta rounded out the table nicely. The halloumi is more of a side than a main, but that sweet-and-salty hot honey combo was chef's kiss. For our finisher, the Chocolate Torte knocked us out. Decadent, delicious and chocolate with lots of depth. Overall, Ēma is an excellent spot to order a bunch of dishes for the table and get an elevated meal without feeling stuffy, and delicious without taking itself too seriously. DO's: - Make a reservation ahead, especially for happy hour 4-6pm - Treat apps like small plates, order 2-3 to sample - Entertain their wine list, they have a lot! - Bring vegetarians here, there are plenty of options DON'Ts: - Dismiss the desert menu.

Sat at the bar and the bartender wasn't in the best mood. Minus one star for the combination of the large pieces of cabbage core and sat at the bar for about 15 minutes - no one was there to serve us.

We got the smoky garlic hummus, whipped feta, brussel sprouts, and lemon meringue bar for dessert, and honestly everything was amazing. The harissa honey on the brussel sprouts was so good, and the lemon meringue bar with the citrus crema and graham cracker crust was the perfect sweet item to round out the meal. They bring complementary pita with your hummus and dips and the bread with za'atar itself was delicious.

I ordered Prawns Saganaki and side of pita bread. Asked for no oil nor salt for the pita. While it was shown on the lunch menu on their website, the Prawns Saganaki was actually not on the lunch menu. Luckily, the kitchen has prepared it (for dinner) so I was able to try it. In total 4 pc of big shrimp, served with tomato sauce, crumbled feta and cherry tomatoes. The feta was so finely crumbled that it could easily "melt" in the sauce. The cherry tomatoes added more juiciness to it. Overall great, and definitely paired well with the pita. What made me disappointed, if not annoyed, was the check-in. I waited for nearly 6 min until someone finally noticed me. The staff said she would come "just a minute". At that time a woman (white) went into the restaurant and sat at the bar. Then she started to greet her, and discussed the menu with her, and even took the order! Looked like she completely forgot my presence. Possibly some discrimination/racism idk. i would have left if the restaurant did not charge a no-show fee for reservation. Luckily they took off the pita from my bill after I complained about the waiting time (I did not say about discrimination because I am not sure about it).

It's pretty cool that although the restaurant doesn't serve alcohol, staff from the adjacent bar came around every so often and took orders. For appetizers, we started with the feta and olive appetizers. They were good, but I'd probably order something a little more unique next time. I opted for the chicken kalamata dinner for the main event, which came with more french bread and a salad. The salad came out first, and it was pretty simple with minimal dressing. I wished there had been more variety in produce and something besides iceberg lettuce for greens. I'd recommend getting some feta on the side to add some flavor. The chicken, however, was absolutely outstanding. It was super tender, seasoned beautifully with za'atar, and brined in vinegar (I think). The za'atar seasoned french fries underneath were extra crispy and perfectly soaked up the extra sauce from the chicken. For the price, this place is a steal- you really can't beat the quantity and quality of food that you get. Overall, a great experience- I definitely recommend making a stop if you're in the area!
