    Mousaka
    Michelle T.

    It was our second time ordering from this place and it was delicious. First time I ordered the chicken soulvaki platter and there was plenty of food. Flavor was spectacular. This time I went for the mousaka which was delicious and bold in flavor. The only complaint I have is that I wished it came with a side since the portion was small as an entree. However, I would get it again in the future. They were quick with their service and delivery.

    Chicken with Lemon Potatoes

    We had a play to attend at John Jay and this spot was conveniently located near it. We didn't have a reservation and it was quite packed. They were very accommodating for our party of 3. The food service was pretty fast and my chicken dish tasted good. I'd say a typical Greek restaurant. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable with my allergies. If you need somewhere to eat quickly I would recommend this place.

    OPA! What a cute little Greek spot in the city; right on the corner of 10th avenue and 58th street. I am a sucker for chicken souvlaki and tzatziki sauce. Their chicken was a good portion, juicy and well seasoned/flavorful. The tzatziki sauce was fresh and creamy. Their Greek fries were different but nonetheless delicious. The lemonade was very refreshing. The place was packed today! We came here for lunch and will definitely stop by again. Thank you for having us, see you soon!

    Still good after 20 years. We tried the 4 dips, feta with sesame and figs, zucchini chips, Greek salad with shrimp. Yummy!!

    Tzatziki and homemade pita
    Rosa O.

    This was truly some of the best Greek food I've ever had. The warm, homemade pita was perfection, and the lemon potatoes were done just right-bright, flavorful, and perfectly tender. On top of the incredible food, the service was outstanding-friendly, welcoming, and genuinely thoughtful. They even went the extra mile to help me charge my dying phone, finding a plug on the ceiling! That kind of hospitality is rare and so appreciated. Love it here-can't wait to come back!

    Food: We ordered the feta sousami for an appetizer, and it comes with pita bread. My husband ordered lentil soup & the chicken souvlaki dinner, instead of rice he wanted grilled veggies but they didn't have any or wouldn't replace it. I ordered the same thing, I did want the rice, but thought the red sauce was odd on the rice but it was good and the portions are generous. We had leftovers but since we were visiting we couldn't take them back to hotel. I loved the food and my husband thought it was good. Drinks: I ordered the Cabernet, it was very light but ok. Service: Good Ambiance: Good, very clean, casual and nice. We would come back if we lived here. Price: $109 for two people

    Avgolemono Soup
    Garrett Y.

    The Greek Kitchen was busy throughout prime dining hours, and appears to be popular with the locals. The dining room is a bit tight. We both got the avgolemono to start. For dinner I got the baked chicken and lemon potatoes while my hubby got the chicken kebab. Both chickens were dry. So I am not sure I'd get that again. Other options that look good were the pastitsio and moussaka.

    Gyro Sandwich

    This place is located in SW corner of 10th Ave and 58th St. it is a pretty big place with seating inside and along the periphery outside. We did not need a reservation on Saturday night but couple of the big tables were reserved. The servers were very friendly and the service was efficient. The food was great. The hummus was probably the best I've had in a long time and I eat Greek food frequently. Saganaki was thicker than what I have seen in the past and well done. The chicken souvlaki and orzo was great. I also got a side of grilled chicken and that was 2 pieces (see photo)! Unbelievable. They gyro platter and sandwiches were great as well. The Beets with Skordalia and seared tuna was an unexpected item which was excellent (see photo). Servings were generous and one of the best meals we had.

    A very wide range of options for a traditional Greek kitchen, with a pleasant glass window front room. Good for the fam and good for a lil date! "Scrumptious 8/10" -says Ben "A grand ole time with undeniably delicious food with meat that's to die for! A simple must stop snack!" -says Will

    A wonderful little Greek restaurant with authentic flavors and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. We…read moreordered the mussels, moussaka, and whole grilled tsipura (sea bream), and every dish was fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of traditional Mediterranean flavor. The mussels were tender and served in a delicious, flavorful broth. The moussaka was rich, creamy, and clearly homemade. The grilled tsipura was incredibly fresh, cooked perfectly, and simply seasoned to let the quality of the fish shine. The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the overall experience felt genuine and relaxing. If you're looking for authentic Greek cuisine made with care, this place is definitely worth visiting. We'll definitely be back!

    Busy for Monday evening. Felt like I stepped into Greece…read more I started with the complimentary bread, it was good. The crust was a little hard but I liked the fresh spread, I would recommend adding some olive oil, salt and pepper for more flavor. I got the traditional Greek salad. The salad was good. I love the tomatoes they tasted fresh. Though found myself wanting to add more salt and pepper for more flavor to pop. The dressing was good for dipping the bread in too. The octopus was delicious. Very fresh. Good portion. It was seared perfectly. I love how it was cut for me too, nice and tender. Not too chewy. The dill and capers were a nice touch. Seems the staff remember familiar faces, very friendly and all Greek. Altogether it was $64 which I find very pricey. The octopus was priced at $31 which wasn't bad. But the salad being $28 seems extreme. Overall a nice experience. Bit of a wait for the food

When downtown…read morefriends had to be uptown for something and asked us where we could meet them for lunch, I suggested this place and it was perfect! I prefer this location to the other Souvlaki GR restaurants , LES and Carnegie Hall area. First of all, the servers (owners?) are so nice. And for us vegetarian eaters, lots of choices in addition to plenty of meat and seafood.One friend had orzo with calamari, shrimp and octopus; he didn't leave a single bit! His wife had a good sized bowl of lentil soup, and an order of hummus that was served with lots of fresh pita triangles. My husband and I shared 3 dishes, one as yummy as the other: grilled halloumi, grilled vegetables platter, and gigante beans in a lovely tomato dill sauce. A plate of pita and crumbled feta was served for sharing, I think, or maybe for the orzo/seafood dish - but we all shared. For dessert, a slice of fantastic, freshly baked baklava was shared among us. Just a taste of sweet to perfectly cap off a good meal!
