44 Best Greek Restaurants near Skokie

“Stopped in here with my dad while we were in Skokie and can confirm my dad was obsessed with the French fries (he ate the whole basket by himself). We split a kebab meal and the chicken was tasty. The baklava was excellent, and the whole restaurant overall was very clean. I def want to go back to try more of their food!“

“Update: I've been coming here for like 20 years, cant remember the last time they've raised their prices. Their full slab of Baby Back Ribs has been $25 for ages, and it's as good as it's always been, fall off the bone tender right balance of sweet and salty, a little fat and their delicious glaze.

Portions are good, food is out in like 3-8 minutes, love coming here.“

Chef Doug Psaltis is a true expert and artist performing at the highest levels. The gyros are the best, best gyros in Chicago by far, the seafood world class, the homemade bread and pita are incredible. The foods and meats are cooked over wood fire, wood fire grilled. We had our daughters baptism catered from here which was excellent assortment of Greek food - this is a Greek restaurant you will go to for many years to come.“

“Had lunch there today and I have to say this is the first time I was disappointed with the service. The food was excellent but that's it. Asked for 2nd drink and never got it. Water was never refilled until we were through eating. When first ordering our wine we had problems. I will continue to eat here and hopefully this is a one time occurrence.“

“Amazing food - relaxed atmosphere“

“Love the menu and the food at this place. This is the second time we've been here and I LOVE their stuffed squid. The service was a bit slow this time but we weren't in a rush. One major drawback is that there's NO changing table in either bathroom, and there is no countertop so changing a baby is impossible.

Kid-friendliness: Not very kid friendly - no changing table“

The rice, potatoes, and ambiance was spot on! I felt like I was back in Athens, this is probably the best tasting Greek chicken I have had in years! absolutely recommend it!“

“Got the Sampler Platter and a Chicken Pita Wrap both were outstanding, particularly their proprietary Tzaziki sauce. Also, I may have mentioned it was my friend's bday which they handled elegantly with a complimentary dessert. Extra points for style. friendliness and tasteful ambience.“

“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.“

“BEST GREEK SALADS ! I always order from here and I’m never disappointed! I’ve never had a better Greek salad than Mr. Zee’s. Their Greek salad dressing ….. I mean I wish I had a gallon of it at home so I can put it on everything. I think they should start selling it or maybe give me the recipe ?? Either way I’d be happy 😊 The spanakopita spinach pie and also amazing. I miss their rice pudding. I don’t think they make it anymore but regardless Mr Zees is amazing !!!! Thank you for your delicious food 😁“

“I just had the best gyro of my life at Gyro Guys! From the first bite, I knew I was in for something special. The gyro was completely full of meat and the meat was perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. This gyro was a real nuke it was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. The pita was soft and fresh, and the tzatziki sauce was creamy and tangy, complementing the gyro perfectly. The staff was friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner who is known as Chef Zuzu, he told me they recently opened up and seems like a great, honest, and hardworking business owner. If you’re looking for an amazing gyro, look no further. This place is fire!! AND THEY OFFERING BUY ONE GET ONE FREE SO I GOT 2 AMAZING GYROS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!!!!!! I’ll definitely be coming back I work in the area and recommend this place to everyone!!!!!“

“I went here occasionally after class and have nothing but fond memories. I don't say this lightly... they have the BEST Italian Beef in Chicago. I've tried hundreds of places and beefs.

“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!

“Grilled cheese with gyro meat was amazing!! There were 11 of us in our group! Service was super friendly and extremely fast! We will be back on our next trip!“

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

“Walking down Diversey and found this place off the street. Ordered Chicken Shawarma Platter. Boom. Just enough spice to make the tongue dance with some nice rice, hummus and salad to cool it back down. 411 I'm , on a scale from 1 to 10, a 3.5 on the spicy scale. This rides about 4.5. Not a big variety but what they do they do right. If you do gyro, shawarma, falafel and the like you're in. A very basic interior but the food is worth the stop.“
