I stumbled upon this yummy restaurant... Not waiter service, but it was absolutely amazing. The nice man brought me my food and picked it up also. I started off with 1 shrimp on a stick and 1 chicken on a stick... It was so good that I ordered 2 more shrimp on a stick. The Yzatziki was siper tummy. The best ever. I recommend this please to grab and go or sit down. Very casual on the inside. I highly recommend on all angles. Thank you!

We ate in, but despite several tables, there were far more people there for takeout (both locals and DoorDash types wearing helmets with delivery satchels). As soon as you walk in, you see a counter with their menu overhead on the wall and an open kitchen behind the counter. The tables and chairs were white and clean. I had the Vegetarian Platter: (1) spinach and cheese pie ("spanakopita "); (2) baked and peeled chunks of lemon potatoes; and (3) Greek salad. It was all fresh and delicious - definitely a notch above the lemon potatoes and spinach pie I've had elsewhere. I was surprised it was delivered to the table in a three-sectioned styrofoam box instead of a plate, but that supports my impression of it being more of a takeout place ... but a very good one. I also liked the stocky Greek gentleman who both took and served my order.

I ordered a sandwich with lamb meat and had Pistachio Baklava for dessert.

I guess for the UES it's not bad but I would head downtown or across the water in Astoria for much better food. What's to cheer - standard selection of Greek food - Good red feat dip and pita bread - Fair prices - Branzino was ok and decently grilled - Zucchini chips were nicely done What's to jeer - Service was puzzlingly bad. Water was constantly refilled but difficult to get a second drink. Many people working who aren't actually waiters. No food runners from the kitchen - Calamari wasn't great - Deserts were meh

Service is friendly and attentive. The cold apps we ordered came out quickly, the entrees took a little longer, but that tells me they're actually preparing the food and not just heating it up. Fine by me! The spicy feta dip and tzatziki were my favorites, but I also loved the Shrimp Santorini (orzo, shrimp, tomato sauce, baked feta) and the bite of my husband's moussaka I had was great. Their special watermelon salad was also a favorite! Cute place, good for dates, friends and families!

Libby is a dairy kosher restaurant, which means that they serve only seafood and dairy items - a combination that ends up working out decently enough for a vegetarian like myself. We shared two pizzas, one with potatoes and a funky blue cheese and a more classic red pie with tomatoes. The toppings and sauce on both pizzas were quite good. I found the crust a bit too chewy, as if it gave up half way to becoming Neapolitan. The atmosphere was fun even on a weekday night.

This is not a place to visit if you are looking for the cheapest option....Then again, given the area it is one of the more affordable spots. Nonetheless, because of their Outstanding customer service and delicious food, eating here feels like a steal! I am a bodybuilder, so I'm big on protein... The lamb/beef gyro does not disappoint. Pro-tip: If you like spicy, go for the harissa sauce. Absolutely delicious. Side note: This morning, another manager greeted me at the door. I wasn't aware that they didn't open until 10. He actually let me sample the baklava. Make sure you give this place your support! Side note 2: There are some young guys there who do have great energy, but I did encounter one that was a little less than enthusiastic in his preparation.

Hi. I come here pretty often. I'll keep coming back…read more Here's the deal - great food, some of it really affordable, generous portions. Comfortable seating, cozy, welcoming design. You can usually walk in and get a seat. Most of the wait staff is super nice. But they're not as attentive as some other restaurants, even when the place appears slow. Some of the waiters also forget or screw up any modifications to orders - "hold the onions," "salad instead of fries," etc. They nail any orders without modifications. Again, I'll keep coming back. You should too.

The first two visits truly felt like home--the yeero was tasty, fresh, and satisfying. Unfortunately, that seems to be a common pattern when a Greek yeero place first opens: everything starts strong. Today, I returned expecting the same consistent experience, but sadly, it was very disappointing. What I was served felt like diner-style gyros--frozen, reheated, and lacking any freshness. When I asked if I could get a fresh one, I was told it was fresh and from the morning, which was hard to believe. It didn't look fresh, and it wasn't even hot, which is essential for an authentic gyro experience. Another staff member was kind enough to cut gyros from a new spit, but unfortunately, the result was the same. The rotisserie was not even working, and the meat was reheated on the grill with oil. I'm sorry, but that's misleading when a restaurant claims to be serving authentic Greek gyros. It genuinely makes me sad to see this labeled as authentic Greek food, because it's not. For me, this was my last visit. I'll continue ordering from Souvlaki GR, which has been consistently excellent for many years. I'm not affiliated with them in any way--I simply believe they remain the most respected and reliable Greek spot in Manhattan.
