I’m speechless, the food is healthy and amazing, the plates, seats, tables and floor are clean, you can really see they clean the restaurant thoroughly every day!!

It’s a mom & pop business with 2 brothers as servers love to see that!

The service is amazing, even when it’s crowded which was surprising!!

Quick to get your order on the table, but trust me, even if you wait, it’s worth every minute…

Thank you djonis for serving us every time!!

The place I wanted to go to was closed next door, the international market.

This place was horrible such a joke for Greek food, I’m from Jersey and they don’t serve Greek food like this , the presentation was cheap small portions and sloppy. A spoon of rice but like a soup spoon of rice .
The gyro special tasted like a meat lovers pizza with no bread. Horrible. Sorry but they need to up their game. Not worth even trying.

We had the Steak Special and the Gyro Special. Both were cooked to perfection. We love coming here. The people are friendly, you have room for your private conversations or a sidebar with the people. The pride in ownership is palpable.

First time here since they changed from papa nicks. The oven shrimp was great as was the 3 dip special.
While the food was good the prices were very high for what he had.

It’s so unexpected to eat at a restaurant that truly blows you away but tonight we experienced just that. We ate at Djonisi’s Restaurant and let me tell you, it was one of the best meals we’ve ever had. The server gave us his name - Djonisi of course, it’s his family restaurant! And his mother was cooking tonight - we suspected we were in for a treat. Everything, and I mean everything, we had was delicious and cooked with love. The grilled octopus, may be the best we’ve ever had. The eggplant, feta red pepper, and taramosalata dips, and dolmades, the lamb chops were incredible. And the grill for two! They brought a mini chaffer to the table to keep it warm, perfect. Baklava and custard pie for dessert. We took home almost half the food the portions were so big. The lemon potatos and the tomato rice served with each meal - just proves they know exactly what they are doing. Amazing Greek food, such a nice Greek family, super clean and priced well. We will be back. Once we make some room in our bellies from this feast! And I’m Greek… I’ve been eating this food my whole life so you can trust me, I’m a professional ?

This place is a hidden gem. Took a chance to check it out from the reviews and it was outstanding! This local restaurant will meet your expectations. Food was made to order and the plate portion was generous. They take pride w/ the food and cleanliness of the restaurant.
