    The food is consistently good and the staff is very friendly. I come here pretty frequently since they have the only meatballs I like.

    Pretty solid Mediterranean food and some of the best we have found since moving to Austin. The first time we tried, the store was completely empty and we were a bit hesitant to go inside... but grateful we did! You can dine or take with you and the first time, we ate in. We just went for the basics with Gyro sandwiches (one lamb and one chicken). And for a side, we had fries and shared a piece of the baklava for desert. The sandwiches were pretty delicious and definitely fresh. I read on another review they felt the meat was a bit dry and I would agree. It was tasty but the meat could have been a bit juicier. The sandwiches certainly came with an ample amount of meat. We ordered them loaded, but they fixings seemed to be lacking a bit. The lettuce and tomato weren't as fresh as I was expecting and surprisingly, just a little bit of red onion. And their tzatziki sauce was good, but again, I've had better. The fries were hot and fresh and not greasy at all. The baklava was epic! Overall, we were very satisfied and so much so... the next day we went back to try some other items. This time we ordered the spanakopita, hummus, and decided to try another Gyro sandwich with lamb. For starters, the spanakopita was some of the BEST I've ever had! The pastry was very flaky and the spinach & cheese were amazing. This was warm, fresh and again, some of the best I've ever had. But when it came to the hummus, we didn't even eat it. We both tried and it wasn't bad... but this isn't hummus I would order. It was kind of bland for hummus. And the Gyro sandwich this day was really no different than the previous day. It's tasty but not the best I've ever had and still agree with the other person that the meat is somewhat dry. And again, the toppings/fixings (tomato, onion, sauce) are not very fresh and they use them sparingly. This is a good place and pretty authentic. The prices are very decent and a nice little place.

    MEAL: Lunch ORDER TYPE: Dine-in EST.: 2005 MY ORDER EXPERIENCE I am not a great fan of Mediterranean cuisine, but based on my friend's suggestion, I went to try this place, as he eats there almost 4-5 times a week. The restaurant was cute and spacious. They had both indoor and outdoor patio seating. They also had booth seating options available. The place was quiet and peaceful, which gave it a different vibe. I love the concept of being able to pick and choose from varied vegetarian, gluten-free and vegan options. I was surprised by their options. I ordered a Veggie Plate which came with Choice of Protein, Soup or Salad, Any Three Sides and Pita Bread for only $10.99, which was a deal. And if you order any extra side then that would be $2.50 each, so I would suggest anyone Make Your Own Plate. For my Veggie Plate, I ordered the following: Rice Tzadziki Soup: Lentil Soup - RECOMMENDED Lentil Soup reminded me of Indian Dal Tadka and tasted great. It tasted great when combined with rice. Sides: Falafel I had Falafel balls previously, but these were in a different shape, which tasted good. Spanakopita - RECOMMENDED This dish reminded me of Indian Samosas. Spanakopita was flaky and stuffed with spinach and cheese. It tasted super good. Pasta I ordered pasta thinking it would taste like traditional cheese pasta, but I was not impressed with it. Pita Bread The Pita Bread looked soft and fresh. We picked up our order and dined on the patio. The food was good, with fast service. The rice and lentil soup combination was the best. The staff were patient and explained the different dishes, as it was my first time trying Greek food. The prices were super reasonable. They also had validated parking. They also have rewards programs. There is solid Mediterranean food in the Austin area. Besides this location, they also have two other locations.

    Greek is my favorite quick sit down meal and Tino's deserves 5 stars. Great Gyro followed with an amazing Backlava. Mmm mm mm. We will be back for sure.

The woman at the front counter was lovely and recommended a Greek white wine for us, which was incredible. The food was top-notch. Super fresh and homemade baba ganoush and tzatziki sauce.

I put in a to-go order for a kibbeh wrap; the price seemed typically high for the area, but when I got my order its quite a sizable wrap so all-in-all a pretty good deal! The food did take about 20 minutes to come out- I wasn't going to complain as there was a line of people the whole time so I could tell it was busy, but when I did get my food they apologized for the wait and gave me some free baklava so even if there had been hard feelings that would have 100% fixed it lol I'm a huge baklava fan and had actually been considering adding some onto my order but didn't because of the long line! So service was great, but most importantly- the food! The kibbe wrap was huge; I managed to finish the whole thing but in two different sittings lol. The kibbe was generous, and the pieces were flavorful and juicy. The veggies were fresh and crisp, and the whole thing was lightly sauced but the flavor of the kibbe popped enough that I didn't think it needed more sauce. Delicious and I would 100% order again. Plus the (free!) baklava was top notch! Sometimes you get the ones where the filo dough is a little tough/chewy and it still tastes great but the texture isn't there- not with this baklava! It was tender, delicious, and a perfect end to the meal. Parking was limited on the street but I believe the Triangle has garages also- I was able to snag a short term parking spot for MezzeMe which is actually why I originally decided to check it out!

My absolute favorite dish is the fried fish and chips--perfectly crispy on the outside and tender and flavorful on the inside. It's honestly one of the best versions I've had anywhere. On my most recent visit, I also tried the lettuce tacos, which seem to be really popular there right now. The moment I took my first bite I fell in love with the flavor.

I also ordered the fried dill pickles, which are another personal favorite of mine. They were perfectly fried and full of flavor.

We spent around $600 with tip and fees for 5 (mixed grill, two apps, two drinks each); and while the food was delicious the meats were luke warm not piping hot, our server while very friendly was not the best at giving suggestions (basically she said everything is good lol) and wasn't able to split the check 2/3 and 1/3 instead of 50/50 ("... I don't know how to do that"), and the cocktails while tasty didn't really feel special enough to be $21-25 each. It was a very enjoyable experience I just don't know that it lived up to the price tag. For that price I'm looking for exceptional not just very good. That being said the food was delicious! Pricey but pretty good portions. The server said the mixed grill was good for around 4 people, but with two apps it was actually a little too much food for the 5 of us. Mixed grill ($220): -Rosewood Wagyu Strip and Lamb Chops: tie between these two for the best dish; they were both juicy and tender and the sauces were delicious. Not served piping hot but they were so good I didn't really mind. -Harissa Marinated Beef Tenderloin: great flavor- a tad dry. -Spiced Lamb Kefta: also dry, I liked it best with the yogurt sauce. -Red Pepper Chicken Thigh: delicious, one of my fav kabobs. -Herb & Garlic Shrimp: tasty and not overcooked -Charred King Trumpet mushroom: loved the veggie option! they mushrooms were substantial and the sauce was great. -Crispy Shallot Hummus: very good- loved the crispy shallots in particular! -Manti Dumplings: top app- I would 100% order this again the dumplings were delicious and the sauce/yogurt on top of them was the best, we wiped up every drop with the pitas! -The pita bread was hot, fresh, and delicious and our service kept on offering more, so I don't know if they've changed their policy but my experience was not the same as reviews that said only one pita per person. We refused extra pitas 3 times I think! Cocktails- everything we tried was quite good, but again there wasn't the pizaz or just 'blown away by the flavor' to feel that the crazy price was totally justified. We tried: Spanish G&T (very refreshing- don't chew on the juniper berries lol), Banana Bread Old Fashioned (pretty good even for someone who doesn't much like whiskey!), Bonfire on a Beach (fun, smokey, love the harissa on the side), Peach Martini (teensy bit sweet for me but good). The manager stopped by a few times to check on us and our server was very attentive. She did give us good service its just for the high price I would expect some more detailed suggestions on drinks, being able to split the check other than 50/50 (or at least ask someone instead of just saying 'I don't know how'). It was friendly and enthusiastic service just not 'wow this truly is fine dining' service. Outside of the restaurant, parking is a bit of a pain but that is normal for down town. We parked at the Laz garage half a block away- $8 for 2 hrs instead of the $27 for valet.

Again all super fresh veggies filled the pita wrap and very tasty chicken. They had outdoor seating for our dog who was our dinner guest. But you have to order inside. Which I did. The person who took the order was busy but did a great job. We asked for a couple of large glasses of water with lemon and she promptly took care of us. There were small glasses out on the table but we wanted large ones cus we didn't want to keep walking inside. No problem. Food arrived after a short while and was delicious. They have a nice parking lot however getting in and out can be a little bit crazy when you have everyone from Austin rushing home. Had to wait a long time to get to exit the parking lot cus not one Texan driver would give us a break and let me in the exit lane. Next time I see a Texas license plate in New York I will remember that. But I will still give them a break.

When we checked at the counter, the interaction felt pretty condescending, staff insisted the order had already been brought out even though we never received it and still had our number with us. At that point we had to cancel the order so we wouldn't miss our show. I do appreciate that they offered a full refund without issue, but overall the experience left us disappointed, especially with how the situation was handled.

Seeing how it was transformed into The Greek Bar made my heart smile. I couldn't believe how they had transformed it, especially the outdoor seating area. A little oasis off Oltolf. As soon as we got there we were greeted by one of the owners. Daphne was all smiles and instantly made us feel at home. She was so informative, you can tell she had a passion and was very proud of her restaurant... Rightfully so! We started with some cocktails... My friend had the Gin and Tonic, I had the Old Fashion... Very nice and our other friend had the lemonade. Even though it was an afternoon in July... The outdoor area was very comfortable with the fans blowing on us and the natural breeze coming through. The menu was explained to us and she gave us recommendations. Both of my friends got the Lamb Kefta skewers... What a beautiful plate.. All the vibrant colors. I ordered the Greek Fried Chicken. I wasn't sure what to expect but I was feeling adventurous. The menu description was Greek Style Fried Chicken with Loukoumades ( Greek Style donuts drizzled with honey), slaw and house made pickles. Another stunning presentation. I tried each item first separately and each item were both delightful and unique. The Brine of the Feta Marinade Chicken that was crispy but light and so tender inside with the sweetness of the donuts and topped off with crunchy slaw that had a great dill and fresh taste to it, all came together. Think Chicken and Waffles but Greek Style. From beginning to end, it was an absolute treat. Perfect place for a date, girl's night out, an important occasion to celebrate or just want to treat yourself. The Greek Bar is a great representation of what is South Austin.... Comfortable, Corky and just a Great Vibe. I look forward to coming here for Dinner, exploring more of their menu and treat myself to another great cocktail. A gem for sure!
