The waitress was really nice, not sure if she didn't listen and gave the wrong order but 3 out of 8 meals were incorrect. I did enjoy my food though. Nothing special.

The waitress was a tiny thing that moved like a spider, very quick and very professional. The wait to get our order taken was long, and she went beyond to make up for it. I had the fish platter with salmon, shrimp and scallops, grilled, and the shrimp and scallops were very dry and chewy. My wife had a burger, nothing special at all. Lettuce was beyond wilted, and tomato was far from fresh. She thought the burger was frozen. We won’t return.

I’ve been coming to this place for over 10 years and I used to love the baked lasagna. It was one of my favorites until I just came in today and it was disgusting!! Management changed and I asked if they changed the recipe and they said they changed sauces and have a different chef. He said the chef puts his own touch to the food like putting the meat on top and not in the middle of lasagna. There was so much ricotta cheese I couldn't even eat it. Idk why the owner would allow the chef to change it like that when it was once sooooo good. I also ordered French onion soup and it was different than it used to be too. The environment is also not the same. The old guy who ran the place really made everyone feel like family and he’s no longer here :( I’m so sad to say I will never be back. It brings me tears to see skidders go down hill. $95 dollars for terrible food is so unacceptable. Our waitress was super sweet tho! She’s the only reason I didn’t leave super mad.

We left after listening to the manager (we think) yelling at the employees every few minutes to do something else or complain about why something is not done....Dude take it out back or have a staff meeting before you open....no one wants to listen to a Terrible boss berate staff because he thinks he looks important to the customers....you just bad...and lost our business.

Skidders has great authentic Greek food and the service is excellent. Our family was treated so well by the best server ever, her name is April and we highly suggest asking to be seated at one of her tables when get there. April is a rock star! Todd, Jenny and Jackson :)

We were welcomed at the door with “do you have a reservation?” When we answered No a huff followed by the statement you are going to be the last walk in for the night. Wait staff was slow and overwhelmed in a half full restaurant. Ordered a salad and there was at least an inch of standing water in the bottom of the bowl.

Worst experience ever. The fact that half of the restaurant is under construction should have been our first red flag. Ordered the seafood pasta and it’s basically mediocre pasta drenched in cheap Ragu pasta sauce. Not worth $38!!! There was no flavor and the scallops were slimy. I also got a Caesar salad and it was inedible. It was so watered down and tasteless that it was like Caesar salad soup. Was expecting a nice dinner since the other reviews online were good and the prices indicate a high end dining experience. Don’t come unless you want to be traumatized.

This place sucks!! Got my order wrong twice. Went to call in a order today, phone doesn't work. Ordered online, went to go pick up when it said it would be ready. I get there and find that they didn't take order, so I got nothingI'm done with this place!!!!

The food quality and prep has declined recently. We have tried it a few times but have not had a good meal there since last year. The onion soup took a long time to come out, but was cold. Same for the Mousaka. And the pork chop was overcooked and tough. And a new first for me in decades.....served an Old Fashioned without ice. And when I inquired about that, I was told they are not served over ice, yet the ones I had there before were always over ice and with a cherry. The service is always great. If we go back it will be for breakfast only.

Walter, the owner, created a welcoming and kind atmosphere the moment we walked in the door and built upon it by checking in on our table, bringing drinks, and asking names. The food was delicious, I had the baked ziti and the portion size was just right. There was a great variety of food on the menu, the mozzarella sticks were a great, easy appetizer. Despite the current renovation, the atmosphere was warm and accommodating. Great dinner spot!

Owner was so welcoming and kind. Great music, seating, and atmosphere. My friends and I were treated with the most genuine care and the food was absolutely amazing! Best Greek I’ve ever had. Will definitely be back.
