    Bbq Rib Tips
    Nathan W.

    Love Zeus resturant. My favorite thing to order here is the rib tips. It comes with rice/fries, coleslaw, garlic bread, and a bunch of rib tips slathered in bbq sauce. So much food. Also would highly recommend getting a side of garlic dressing, perfect sauce to dip the fries in! It gets busy at lunch time, so I always call ahead to order. Inside, there are a few tables that you can dine in. There's lots of different options on the menu. I need to come back to try other things here.

    Food was so good and so much of it. I frequent a place a Greektown but they recently were not meeting my standards. I tried Zeus and everything was fresh, abundant and tasty. They didn't take long at all. It's a hidden gem. They have tvs inside nothing fancy fairly small but enough specs for a large group.

    Gyro Sandwich
    James B.

    Zeus Restaurant was exactly what I was looking when I came to Greektown in Chicago looking for some quick, but good Greek food. The portion size was extremely large but still tasted great. I had the #1 Gyro Sandwich and everything about it was tasty. The ordering is counter service but the food was out quickly and the staff was very nice. The ambiance is very basic for a quick service restaurant but you don't need it to be anything more. There are a few tables with a TV and some seats at a counter. Overall Zeus was what I was looking for for a quick bite in Greektown.

    Since Mr. Greek's fell off the scale I decided to try Zeus' 2nite. Wise choice. A nice female order taker/cashier took order. She was pleasant. I orders the gyro special which was delicious; ample meat, fries + drink. My guest had the patty melt which he liked. My only issue with them is they use RC products. I washed my hands in restroom which was clean. There was a tv with sports on, an aquarium and sports decor. If u need a bite, see Zeus. Thanks guys 4 a pleasant dining experience

    Greek Chicken Salad
    Julia B.

    Oh, Zeus- where have you been all my life? I CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE ENOUGH! I come here at least once a week for my favorite Greek salad in all of GreekTown! The women who run the register are SO SWEET and the cooks are equally friendly! While I never have dined-in, I love the Anthony Bourdain mural on the wall. There is a decent amount of seating for the size of the restaurant- take advantage of it if you can! You get so much QUALITY food for the price- I love that they include pita bread! I am proud to call myself a regular at Zeus and can't wait to come back for more!

    Pork Shish Kabob Plate
    Mona T.

    This is one of the more affordable spots in Greektown serving up good portions and pretty solid Greek fast food. When you walk in, the menu is up on the wall and you order at the counter. They call out your order a few minutes later and it comes in a takeout container and bag, though you can also choose to eat inside if you want. The staff are nice and the inside ambience is very casual and clean kept. I ordered the Pork Shish Kabob Plate, which came with 3 pork skewers, rice (you can choose fries or rice), and a Greek salad. It was a great value-- for the price (~$13 total), the portions are large and satisfying. The food was flavorful, though not outstanding. The pork was overcooked and dry, and the pita was well-toasted but tasted a little stale. The salad was fresh and tasty though, and the rice was quite fragrant and flavorful. Overall, I would recommend this place for a super quick, casual, affordable spot if you're craving a truly filling portion of Greek food. Also BTW: they do take credit/debit card, unlike the neighboring Mr. Greek Gyros, with a 3% surcharge.

    The food came out super fast like within 7 min of ordering it. The food was plentiful and tasty (just a little salty but I like low salt food in general so for others it might be just fine). The rice was a little mushy and I like less mush but some like it mushy but it was good. For $15 plus tax ($17 ish) you get a platter of chicken and gyro meat plus salad with excellent vinaigrette sauce with very fresh salad and a choice of rice or French fries. Parking on the street w meters. Quick bite and dine in no waiter service so in and out easy. Great staff!

    Mixed Plate
    Danielle M.

    Literally one of my favorite spots for take out or Uber eats! The mixed plate is my favorite! It's sooooo much food! Flavors and freshness never fail me! I like it with the rice! My go too when I want something tasty, quick and worth my money! It takes me two days to eat it all or it's the only meal I eat for an entire day (lunch & dinner). Service is always good as well! Nice & efficient.

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.

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!
