Delicious food! Really nice take on Greek dishes. We were told the owner’s family is from Istanbul and the menu is inspired by Romios cuisine. The staff is very friendly and on top of it as well .

Best Greek food I've had in Chicago! Regional dishes from Crete, Asia Minor, Greek Islands , etc. which provides a unique dining experience. No Disneyland-style Greek here! Fried cauliflower is great!

When you want more than spanikopita and gyros , David Schneider 's authentic regional Greek fare (and amazing Greek wine list) beckons you to this beautiful dining room in Wicker Park . [Eater 38 Member]

As I was born in Athens, GR-I love this Mediterranean cuisine . Not to mention the wine offerings . Upscale dining at it's best. It's not meat-it's Lamb . Yamas!

The Duck Gyros with Duck fries are amazing. You also have to try the Lamb Offal and the Pork Belly with Candied Green Figs . Just order all of the small plates !!

AGRIOGURUNO ME STRIFTOUDIA (Oven roasted wild boar , housemade Cretan-style pasta , raw chestnuts , Metsovo graviera cheese )

Under 70 t&t included per- for the works: bottle, shared app, entree, coffee and deserts . Not actually expensive for creative, scratch authentic Greek. One of the best bangs for the buck in town .

Amazing food! If you want to make interesting new friends and have a delicious meal, Taxim has partnered with Grubwithus.com to host a social dinner on the first Tuesday of every month.

The cozy , cushy, Byzantine-style dining room and simple (and often simply delicious) seasonal Mediterranean food at this Wicker Park’s Greek den are all the influence of chef-owner David Schneider . Read more

Few ingredients are needed for a housemade phyllo filled with ramps and flanked by feta or a bowl of fava beans tossed with preserved lamb , but solid execution and superb seasoning yields max flavor. Read more

Share small plates of lamb-encrusted shrimp or wood-grilled octopus , or opt for main entrees such as whole Aegean sea bass and pork-stuffed cabbage . Read more

Try the half roasted chicken it is brilliantly made and just the right portions. My buddy Mike tried the Lamb shank and it was made with a bed of rice . He loved it.

Concentrate on the array of 20 mezedes, including fresh fava beans with preserved lamb and yogurt . Big entrées feature roasted whole Cretan sea bass with sautéed dandelion greens. Read more

POLÍTIKA MÝDIA (Politiki-style beer-battered fried mussels , sesame garlic sauce , thyme )

Few ingredients are needed for a housemade phyllo filled with ramps and flanked by feta or a bowl of fava beans tossed with preserved lamb , but solid execution and superb seasoning yields max flavor.

BOUGHÁTSA (Baked Thessaloníki-style custard and phyllo pastry , lemon , powdered sugar )

Great rooftop , wine list and food. Highly recommend the fried cauliflower , lamb , and the spreads.

amazing food, so tasty. The Duck Gyro was soooo good and the duck fries mmmm. The grape leaf wrapped shrimp was delicious

Menu changes & I've tried a lot, but very recent deliciousness: grilled banana & melrose peppers , fried duck egg , spiced potato fries , sheep's milk feta . Share as an antipasti !

Taxim whisks you away from the noise of Wicker Park into an aromatic trance with Middle Eastern dishes like the duck gyro with roasted duck breast , pastourmá spices, mint yogurt sauce and duck fries .

SARDÉLA PASTÍ (Bitter orange-cured sardine, fresh watercress , capers ) .

Must eat for any vegetarian : squash fritters , okra with sun dried tomatoes , and the prassopita! Best food I've had in Wicker Park in a long time.

SARDÉLA PASTÍ (Bitter orange-cured sardine, fresh watercress , capers )

Great rooftop area , good kebab

Awesome rooftop , incredibly cooked meats and great vibe. Truly authentic greek experience

The food was upscale Greek and they have a huge wine list with lots of Greek wines .

There’s another gyro in town , and w all due respect to those before it, this one—made w roasted, pomegranate-glazed duck & slathered with a walnut-yogurt mousse—is unlike any other we’ve encountered.

Small plates better than the large plates. Phyllo w/ goat cheese , pork belly and chickpea dishes were all great. Duck gyro is touted as signature dish and was good. Lamb shoulder was also good.

HTAPODÁKI STI SGÁRA (Octopus , fennel and red onions )

Get the quail . The corn bread it comes with is amazing combined with the sauce.

Authentic and delicious Greek food ! A beautiful night on the terrace .

Favorite thing was the eggplant spread! Yum!

Amazingly good authentic Greek cuisine ; Greektown doesn't come close

Everything. You can't go wrong.

Not a big fan of the lamb...and I'm Greek...and love lamb...so that says a lot.....tomato salad was amazingly good.

Check out chef david of @taxim on iron chef april 10th on the food network. Make your reservations for the preview party it is going to be delicious!

Get the octopus and hummus . And basically anything on the tapas menu . So good.

Very expensive , very good service , very good food, difficult street parking

Just order and enjoy. You'll never go to Greektown again.

Chicagopita, grilled octopus and Greek yogurt dessert are a must!

Didn't love it. Some dishes were good, some were meh, and the service was lacking (our server disappeared for quite a while just). Wouldn't go back.

Try the new selection of greek wines . The only place in the city to get them.

Fun date spot ✨

Get the octopus appetizer . Fantastic!

Upscale Greek dining at its best. Move over Zorba-make room, I'm hungry and the wines will quench your thirst like the Agean. OPA!

Order the goat and bulgur stuffed quince

Duck gyros . Pomegranate glaze. It will haunt your dreams. Delicious....
