We have been patrons of Pylos for many years and have found that the quality of their food, wonderful attentive service and prices are hard to beat.

We came with a large party and had specifically requested to be seated outdoors. When we arrived, we were surprised to find that our group was split between two separate tables. I let them know this wasn't acceptable, and the only alternative they offered was indoor seating—definitely not what we wanted, but we had no choice at that point. Unfortunately, the experience didn't get better from there. The manager or owner seemed annoyed by our group, particularly because we had several kids with us. He made comments that felt passive-aggressive and seemed more concerned with how we were affecting other diners than with making us feel welcome. It felt like we were being rushed out, which was disappointing. This place may cater well to certain customers, but they were neither kid-friendly nor accommodating to our needs. Sadly, we won't be returning

+ The lamb shank was satisfactory. Their tzatziki was great. - The hummus & pita bread were okay. The half plate was not properly cleaned. I felt a bit hot. They could turn on the air conditioner.

We came here for lunch and ordered the lamb chops and chicken skewers which were both delicious. The server was amazing, I have celiac and he made sure to let the chef know. I tested the food for gluten and it came back all clear :)

No real Greek dishes. This place pretending to be a Greek restaurant is a joke. There’s nothing authentic here—just a messy mix of Italian and Middle Eastern food that’s poorly made. The pita and desserts are store-bought. The food wasn’t fresh—we got stomach aches after eating. The atmosphere is dead, and the prices are a rip-off. Total waste of time and money. If you want real Greek food, go to Evvia in Palo Alto. I’ll never come back.

Small portions, expensive and not really greek food. Greek salad is with lettuce and paprika, that is not the real greek salad. They say they have original greek food but the reality is they have fusion of greek and Turkish cuisine.

This restaurant was exceptional. The food was cooked to perfection. The staff was wonderful, and our server was very good. We had a group of seven, and everything went smoothly. This is a great place to dine. Definitely coming back. The food is soooooo good. Greek done right.
I dropped in for a quick bite. The service was friendly, courteous, and efficient. I received several great recommendations to try and I was very happy with the combo souvlaki, samos, and baklava. I'll be back.
Wonder dinner outside. Recommend the lamb shank and whole sea bass. The trio of sauces with the pita is a must as well. Good value and good food for the kids menu.

Excellent Greek food and great service! We ordered the falafel and grilled shrimps for appetizer and both were delish ! The shrimp was perfectly grilled and juicy. We also ordered the Tzatziki dip which came with warm and freshly made pita bread and made a heartwarming combo. For main course we ordered grilled salmon and chicken souvlaki. Again, excellent preparations with lots of sides and generous portions. Lastly my children wanted dessert so we ordered the chocolate layered cake and baklava. The baklava was so perfect in sweetness …. not the common sugar dipped over sweet type but a perfect touch of sweetness to a whole lot of crunch. The chocolate cake was also delightful, soft and melted in our mouths.
