I have to say, I’ve been to a lot of Greek restaurants in my time, but this one is probably the worst. It took one hour for what you said on my plate to arrive. It looks like something that simply got microwaved but it’s still took an hour. I’m pretty sure the guy in the kitchen is the same guy that makes the cocktails and everybody else stands around looking stupid.

So after half an hour of ordering our drinks, I had to ask where my drink was something. Someone appeared from the kitchen and quickly made me two cocktails and drop them at the table and disappeared. I also ordered two things to be delivered at the same time one was delivered within 20 minutes and the other one took over an hour. It took 45 minutes before anyone came over to look at the table With a jug of water but walked past until we called them back to fill out water glasses which were quite empty. Very nice absolutely terrible service and we suspect the same person that makes the cocktails is the poor person slaving over the food in the kitchen.

From the food, to service and atmosphere, everything was excellent at this fabulous establishment in the heart of Waltham MA. Serving up delicious lamb and potatoes, or a chicken gyro sandwich - you can’t go wrong on the Greek / Armenian menu. And thanks to the owner for the incredible hospitality for our party of 7 who sat at the bar, serving up amazing drinks and food and the attention to detail to our party. Professionally ran and a well deserved 5 star review.

Absolutely 5 stars for Aegean in Waltham! My husband, parents-in-law, and I had a wonderful dining experience thanks to their warm and friendly service that made us feel right at home.
We started with their fresh bread and the heavenly feta cheese in olive oil dip—simple yet bursting with flavor. The traditional gyro sandwich with fries was perfectly seasoned and satisfying, while the pastichio and roasted lamb with rice pilaf were comforting and delicious, full of rich, authentic flavors. The spanakopita was flaky and flavorful, complemented beautifully by the roasted potatoes drizzled in lemon—so good we were all talking about it afterward.
I also enjoyed a glass of Armenian red wine that paired beautifully with the meal—smooth, bold, and just the right touch of warmth to enhance the flavors of the food.
And the desserts—wow. The baklava was perfectly crisp and sweet, and the Armenian honey cake was a delightful surprise and the perfect end to a fantastic meal because it's not too sweet.
Highly recommend for anyone craving delicious Greek cuisine served with genuine hospitality!

Our family of 9 had the most amazing dinner. Service and atmosphere were wonderful, but food was out of this world. Thank you to Chris for letting us close the restaurant down and for making us feel so at home. Would go back and highly recommend.

I recently dined at Aegean Restaurant in Waltham and was thoroughly impressed. The lamb youvetsi was tender and flavorful, and the chicken kebabs were perfectly grilled. The staff were attentive and friendly, and the cozy atmosphere made for a pleasant evening. I highly recommend this spot to anyone craving authentic Mediterranean cuisine in the area.

Went to the Aegean in early Feb 2025 and had an outstanding experience. The vibe is very different from the Framingham location but that is OK. Street parking on a Saturday was plentiful. We got there around 5:30 pm, and a few tables were taken. But an hour later, it was nearly full. The food was incredible. We had two different lamb dishes and baklava for dessert. The service was excellent as well. I highly recommend it and will be going back soon. Hope this helps.

My party of 3 were the only customers in the entire restaurant at 8 PM on a Saturday. We had to ask for refills of every single drink every single time. The server literally hid in the kitchen. I ordered spinach pie for an appetizer. The appetizer came with one spinach pie and two grape leaves. We were told that this was the “last spinach pie, so we substituted grape leaves”. OK. But what if I didn’t like grape leaves? I’ve been into the spinach pie and it was ice cold in the middle. We told the waiter that. He acknowledge that, Did zero. We had to ask him to bring it back and heat it up. Which he did. no need to go into the rest of the dinner. All you need to know is the spinach pie half of an order and completely undercooked was not taken off the bill. Hopefully they’ll invest the nine dollars they charge for the spinach pie in better inventory and better service
So sad the Framingham location closed as a kid it was my favorite restaurant but now that I am older I am so happy I can experience the best Greek/armenian food in Boston ❤️❤️

The food here is really outstanding! They have a long list of excellent fish dishes, as well as some authentic Greek specialties. I had the Mausaka and my partner had the shrimp kebab. Maybe we were just really hungry, but wow, the food was good!

Wow, fresh ingredients, prepared simply and sooo delicious. I had the broiled shrimp and feta and my husband had a fish platter. Even the side salad was exquisite in its simplicity and flavor. Fresh, crunchy iceberg lettuce with some feta, red onion, tomato, and Kalamata olives dressed with high quality olive oil, lemon, and salt. It totally surprised me with how delicious and satisfying it was. And a sambuca night cap. Muah!

The Agean is one of my favorite Waltham resturants! Every time I am feeling under the weather, I order avgolemono soup and the bread with feta dip and I feel SO much better. There is something so comforting about their soup, especially when you don't feel well! My husband has tried many of their dishes and has never been disappointed. Highly reccomend!
Our favorite place!!
