Small and fine Greek on the island. We took the water taxi there and walked the short distance. The food was very tasty and fresh. The prices are not typical for Tampa. Very friendly and attentive service.

Davis Island is one of my favorite parts of Tampa. This place was recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. They offer indoor and outdoor seating, which is nice because we had a pup with us. We started off with some wine, which was okay. The star of the show was the gyro platter. The platters are so satisfying as there are a variety of things on the platter. there's pita, feta, a boiled egg, olives, potato salad, tomatoes, cucumbers, and dolmas. The Taziki sauce was great. Definitely satisfies all the craving. Can't wait to go back and try some other things. There's street parking and lots of other great bars and restaurants close by.

Just a wonderful place to eat. Stopped in just as they were opening. Wasn't expecting a breakfast menu. Disappointed at first but the food was delicious. The absolute best French toast we have ever had. Really enjoyed eating out on the sidewalk. A relaxing beautiful atmosphere. The inside looked very cozy & clean. Aleene is the queen of customer service. She was friendly, efficient, and handled several tables at once making everyone think they were the only customer there.

Weekday lunch with my family. No wait to be seated outside in a beautiful day. I had a gyro with fries and a salad; solid, not mind blowing but definitely hit the spot. Other things we ordered included a hummus gyro, grouper fish sticks, and country fried steak. Everyone was satisfied by their meal. We were very well taken care of by our friendly server (Elleni?), super attentive and friendly.

Grecian Island Restaurant was fair to good. The service was friendly, with no complaints. The best of the entrees was the Hummus Grecian Platter. The presentation, freshness of ingredients and flavor, was excellent. The Chicken Gyro was big in portions, yet underwhelming in flavor. It looked good, but simply did not deliver in taste. Perhaps it was due to the dull tzatziki sauce. Regardless, the experience was decent.

Excellent customer service. Charming family run spot. The Greek salad is great, the Greek gyro platter is phenomenal. I also enjoyed their breakfast . 3-4 times I’ve been here and consistently good!

Lots of good reviews but for us, after a few tries, both food and service have been average.

Pretty decent food for a smaller home-y restaurant. The gyro meat was tasty but the eggs were bland. I'm wanting to go back to try their lunch menu to see if it's more traditional Greek food! We sat outside and the seats were kind of dirty which wasn't great. Our server was very attentive and continually checking up on us though, which made the experience nice. Every meal is served with a piece of watermelon which I thought was unique! The inside is diner style and cute. Overall, a decent experience.

My girlfriend recently moved to Davis Island so we've been checking out all the restaurants on Davis Blvd. We came here for breakfast and got a bacon egg and cheese on cuban bread and a Greek omelette with gyro meat. The food was pretty solid and I loved how each plate came with a slice of watermelon! Based on the pictures here on Yelp, I realized that their lunch is probably more their specialty. The service was very attentive (there were only a few tables of customers) and our waitress was very sweet. Overall, pretty nice diner style place with a Greek theme. Definitely want to come back to check out the lunch menu.

I stopped here after a walk by the Davis island dog beach. Its in a cute little strip of shops and restaurants. Perfect spot to sit outside for an early Saturday lunch. The waitress was so friendly and helpful. They got busy really quick so go early! I had the chicken gyro and subbed the chips for their potato salad. The gyro is flavored differently than a standard gyro but it was pretty good. The tzatziki is more like a sour cream. I enjoyed sitting outside and trying this spot out. Next time I'll try the Greek salad!

Best Greek salad I've ever had. Authentic Greek mom and pop style restaurant. Reasonable prices, in a comfortable relaxed atmosphere. Service is fantastic. Waitresses go out of their way to remember your order the next time you come in.
