“I really enjoy Mediterranean food and this dish not disappoint. The trio of dips was super tasty and salmon and spinach salad good too and both were plenty to share between two for lunch and arrived to our table quickly. Pricing was reasonable too“

“Always loved their Greek pastries, they are the best, started going to them 60 yrs ago with my mom and dad. We were always going to Hellas for our parties baptisms and weddings. All our holiday needs were easily available for us. Unfortunately, we moved out to Poplar Grove, Illinois near Belvedere and have missed them greatly. Always love them and it brings a tears to my eyes, that they are still around. God bless them. My parents knew the owners personally.“

“One of the best Greek restaurants in the city! With a solid menu with plenty of options for vegetarians and meat eaters alike, I recommend Taxim for anyone new to Greek food or long-time lovers.

We split the tzatziki and pita, grape leaf wrapped shrimp, mushroom pastry, fried cauliflower, and roasted potatoes. Everything was a good sharing portion and nothing felt skimpy. The rooftop vibe was excellent on a summer night! Our waitress was great and made us delicious Hugo spritz even though we didn’t see them on the menu, she made it happen!

The fired cauliflower was fantastic and I recommend as a must! The phyllo dough pastry was my favorite and came with a side of mild goat cheese - yum! The potatoes were tender and cooked in lamb fat with pieces of juicy lamb included.“

“Went tonight shared the platter that has all the meat. Absolutely wonderful very fresh very tasty. They make chicken as good as pork belly! Fries perfectly fried. Lovely place. Highly recommend. Very reasonably priced.“

“This is an iconic Greektown bar and restaurant that has been serving the community and others for decades, along with their companion restaurant, Meli Cafe, the best breakfast/brunch/lunch spot around. Great food and drink and nothing beats a nice day when they open all the windows and let the fresh air in. Friendly staff and customers and wonderful owners. A true gem.“

“A good Chicago burger, chicken and Gyros joint with many options for the entire family.“

“Best tacos , burritos and Greek chicken in the area. 6 out of 5 stars. Good group of guys behind the counter. They really care about what kind of food they provide. Always fresh and delicious with perfect presentation Also feel at home with the old Greeks guy conversation at the round table combined with the hard working guys behind the counter. Can’t ask for anything more.“

“I love Avli!! The locations I’ve been to, Winnetka and Avli Taverna, have a great philosophy, atmosphere and is intimate for couples, yet easily accommodates a family of 4 comfortably for a casual yet fine dining experience. The menu is thoughtful, including imported Greek oils, crafted unique Greek dishes masterly designed with every detail. Every desire the guest needs is addressed and executed. The plates are exquisite and the atmosphere is heavenly, magical! (No doubt, I imagine, and kudos to your VP and marketing genius Ian) I passed Avli on the Park New Year’s Eve and did take a video which I will gladly post/share! The energy and vibe permeated outside to the guests in line waiting to enter to celebrate the New Year with Ian Vlahakis and the friends and family of Avli!

“I always have a great experience when ordering from here! I love the food, it's very tasty, the Gyro is one of my favorite, I wish I could eat it everyday! I truly appreciate the great customer service though, we don't see that much now a days and its refreshing talking and ordering from someone that is nice, and knows what they are doing! Thank you Little Greek Kitchen I will be ordering again soon! :)“

“My fiancé and I have been a gyro war. I’m a Skokie Dengeos girl and he’s a diehard Squabs fan. While it’s hard to compete with childhood memories after trying Squabs I totally get it. The gyro was perfectly cooked, the tzatziki was beautiful, the fries were delicious. The absolute standout was the customer service. I was having such a bad day. I confused the gyro plate with the gyro dinner and they took such good care of me. I had cried the whole ride over and left with the biggest smile and a plate of leftovers. 10/10 I will be coming back every chance I get.“

“It was a good portioned Gyro but the beef sandwich was disgusting to be honest“

“Great food. Very friendly staff“

“Went tonight on a whim for dinner and I’ll just say this place was spectacular! Without even knowing anything about this restaurant in advance, and in town from Pittsburgh for a youth hockey tournament, we happened to drive by and decided to stop and eat there. Walking in the atmosphere was fantastic and the service was spectacular. We sat at the bar, had a few cocktails, unbelievable appetizers, terrific meals for dinner followed by the most amazing desserts ever. While we were there, we had an opportunity to meet and chat with the owner for a little while. Always a pleasure to talk to someone that is passionate about what they do and appreciates both their employees and customers. It was a fantastic dining experience and I highly recommend this place. Thank you Ted for your hospitality.“

“Athena is a great mix of modern and authentic Greek! The waiter was super interactive and it was a cozy spot in a bitter cold night“

“The best gyro spot in Chicago, the gyro was fresh and delicious if you’re looking for a gyro this is the spot I have not tasted anything else here however the staff is friendly and make you feel like you’re picking food at your aunts place. I’ll post a picture next time I forgot to take one 🫪“

“I had a gyros sandwich today, it was the Tuesday special. This sandwich was delicious, the meat was perfectly cooked (not dry or undercooked like I've gotten elsewhere) & the sandwich was properly assembled with the right proportion of tomatoes, red onions & Tzaziki sauce.

The crinkle cut fries were really good too.
Golden, crispy & delicious sprinkled with the perfect amount of salt.“

“The espresso drinks are the best in Evanston. My new favorite place to come and work remotely on a weekday morning.“

“great burgers 🍔, dogs and gyros“

The welcoming atmosphere and friendly service make it a great spot for casual dining. Overall, a satisfying taste of Greece.“

“My mother loves their Cajun salmon. Great soup and sandwiches“

“Well originally I was craving for Portillos but since this whole week I've been working at Midway I kept seeing this hole and below local restaurant.. This is my first time trying Nikki's and I was actually suprised at the Italian beef. It was not bland compared to Al's Beef or Portillo's but at the same time it was not too salty. I like that they use steak fries. Very chunky. As for the choice of a drink for the meal for $12.99 they had horchatas as well as Jamaican juice and mango or the regular soda fountain drinks. I would have given them four stars for my experience but after seeing that they don't have a bathroom to wash your hands. Service was ok. Ambience was like a hole in the wall or very local which is good. I would come back but next time would like to try their burgers or their barbecue rib tips. I do recommend for such food“

“customer service was excellent and precise pretty Black Woman Sandra and Handsome cook Tony Best Hotdog I have ever had better than Portillo’s Clean establishment and had to give an compliment when due to staff“

“Great Food and the owners are Fantastic and friendly. Love the place.“

“I always get the steak sandwiches and I love them. I've had the Gyros and they're delicious. I bought the pan of mixed chicken freaking g delicious and scalding hot and I just recently had the hoagy sandwich and let's just say I'm a loyal customer. The food is delicious and the owners are great. The thugs that come in though just grosses me out.“

“está chingón el pollo.y el arroz .“

“I loved the perfectly sized, tasty lentil soup that came free with my Moroccan eggplant. The main made 2 servings for me. Our server, Kelly, was incredibly informative and helpful, going above and beyond to find out what we asked out of simple curiosity. My gf and I want to go again since everything looked so tasty, with many options for me as a vegetarian! Their black tea is housemade and delicious, and I don’t even like tea, but the herbal notes in it add great flavor!“

“Great service and great food.“

“Awesome Italian Beef!! So glad I tired it.“

“I love these old school no nonsense simple and great food places that were all over since the 80s and 90s. Not many are left like this. Their grilled chicken, burgers, fries, chilli everything is so good. The prices have gone up a lot in the last 10 years and still more budget friendly than so many other places in the area. I go here 3 to 4 times a month. Great staff. Always friendly and fast.“

“Very scrumptious love the chicken Alfredo In dat manager, Kendra is amazing! All the staff were amazing everything was fresh and hot in omg the dessert yum yum! Keep up the great work. Hope to be back soon.😎“

“Fantastic catering experience from Mr. Greek Gyros on Taylor Street! We ordered lunch for 60 employees, and despite the pouring rain, the owner provided outstanding customer service and delivered everything on time.

The gyros and chicken gyros were absolutely delicious, and the leftovers were just as tasty the next day. Our team loved it!

Great food, great service, and a great experience all around. We'll definitely be ordering lunch from you again soon!“
