The whole staff is great. Tons of great options. Some favorites: saganaki , Athenian salad , broiled salmon , Lake Superior white fish tail, gyros (extra tzatziki ). Hot Lima beans may be the star.
One of the best for fresh, healthy, and simply prepared seafood . Whole grilled fish is the way to go, as is the octopus . Don't overlook their veggies : try the horta (braised greens), okra , and beets .
Tourists and locals alike pack the house every night to try everything from fried zucchini with skordalia (garlic-potato dip ) and dolmades (stuffed grape leaves ) to roast lamb and fresh red snapper . Read more
Greek Island is the staple of Greek Town , importing wines , olives oil , oregano , honey and olives straight from Greece. Try their distinctive lima beans and Colorado lamb .
My favorite restaurant in the world. Everything I've tried has been fantastic. I love the chicken raganaki. Try the family style option, you'll get to taste a variety and have plenty to eat!
Paros island and Antiparos great islands very close from each other you can say the food is the same not matters which restaurant you go try the eggplant grill in Aliki in Paros
Get the family style . Definitely plenty of food. Adolfo took excellent care of my family and they accommodated my 94-year old grandfather very well . We all had a wonderful experience!!!
The most amazing food in Chicago! I've had Giordanos, mother Hubbard wings , and several others but this was the best of all!! Order the Gyro and pork of loin. Unbelievable
Great ambiance, crowded , don't take reservations , rushed service, food good, lamb chops and chocolate cake thumbs up, will try Athenia next time more open and spacious
Try the Dolmades , Saganaki , Grilled Octopus . My favorite entrée is Arni Fournou (braised Lamb ). Great restaurant . POLI NOSTIMOS! (Very delicious) OPA!
I got the combo meal so I got to try more things! Huge portions ! I got the gyro and pasticio. Both highly recommended. Ask for a little extra sauce for the pasticio to make it fantastic.
Flaming cheese came out literally on fire. We also ordered the grilled fish and lamb . Pretty authentic according to a native friend.
Very attentive service . Great and plentiful food that's worth the not-expensive prices. Lots of seating. And you will almost never have less than half a glass at a given moment.
Busy and family orientated, went here for my brothers last dinner in the states before he left to Mexico. Try the lamb ,generally go for the octopus as well .
Personally, I love their sides. Potatoes & rice pilaf are my favorites. Portion size is pretty big, so I recommend sharing
Excellent food at this place. Especially loved the saganaki cheese and the vegetarian options in the combo. I will definitely come back!
Flaming cheese appetizer , Greek salad was delicious, and the combo ( spinach pie and mostaka) that I got was top notch!
It's almost like if you were in Greece. Try to taste everything you can. Authentic .
The best burned cheese I ever tried! Also octopus fall from heaven! Everything is good here!
Even if you aren't a huge fan of seabass , get THEIR seabass . Also the grilled octopus , saganaki and spanakopita .
An institution with a menu as long as a novel . The saganaki is a must no matter what you order.
Family friendly spot . Tons of options. Decent prices. Not a go to for dates because there will be kids yelling.
Rather ho-hum greek fare. Flaming saganaki is always great, and the lamb was cooked perfectly. Just nothing spectacular. At least it's quite large and can accommodate many, our wait wasn't too bad.
Authentic food in the hart of Greek Town . Try the seafood souvlaki or the sea bass .
I've never had a bad meal. Saganaki is great, lamb is also very good
Always great (and fast!) service and delicious, authentic Greek food ! Highly recommend.
Agree with everyone else on the flaming saganaki . I ate an ungodly amount of food for a reasonable price
Excellent chicken riganati and gyros ! The saganaki and Greek salad are a must.
Try lots of unknown things if you're feeling adventurous - everything is good. Grilled octopus and any of their lamb sits at the top of my list.
Nice Greek food in a traditional Greek atmosfeer. The food was great!
This is one of my favorite places. The food is good and it feels like family.
You must try the Kolokithakia, it's incredible!
Huge meals we got the all inclusive and could have fed a family so be hungry!
Amazing sea bass ! Real Greek restaurant from appetizers to desserts
Fantastic Greek food right in the heart of Greek Town !
Try the family meal for two!!! Omg! So much food, and it is delicious. This is the best Greek Restaurant ever!!!!
The spetsofai was delicious! The red sauce really brought it all together well .
Outstanding food! Love every dish I have ordered! And the service is friendly and attentive.
Best of the "big box" Greektown restaurants . Has the freshest seafood by far.
Great food, great prices! Gets really busy after 7pm so if you are going with kids go early.
Wonderful service and amazing food! I've never had lamb before and it was a great first impression. 5 stars!
Can't go wrong with this place. Lamb ribs are among the honorable mentions
One of the best Greek restaurants in Chicago’s Greektown.
Been here 200 times great place. Service rocks food depends on time. But still a 4 out of 5 star place.
Greek food is actually turkish but they're ok. Deserts can be better. Try hard for turkish deserts guys :))
Saganaki , Teramusalta and anything lamb with family and friends = best of times
Free valet parking , save $8!
Jimmy Bannos Sr., chef of Heaven on Seven, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Whole roasted fish . Read more
Saganaki is always good
Mediterranean salmon was so delicious!
Get the greek salad & spanikopita. So many yummy desserts and bakery items to choose from. - Glynnis Johnson
Everything we ordered was delicious! Big portions and reasonable prices. We tried the Chicken Filly, the Homemade Italian Beef and the Greek Salad. The french fries were amazing! And it's open 24 hrs! - Betty
Great seats matter your seat. It's made for sports for 360° view so, concerts are great. - TT isTami
Sit at the bar, chat to the friendly staff, have some free popcorn and watch the game! - Jenny O'Connell
I wish we had these back home, what a great store. Neat, organized, clean and has a great variety of ready to eat food and drink choices and grocery selection. - Vicky Medina-Rivera
