“food was great, everything else is average.
Bad suction system in the restaurant, you smell like kitchen after leaving. The bathrooms were dirty, place overall lacks some energy. Boring atmosphere comparing to the other Mediterranean restaurants in the city. The food was great tho“

“Had a lovely meal to celebrate my 50th birthday, the food was so good and the service was fantastic, I would highly recommend“

“Their lamb/beef gyro was really good. The bowl was stuffed! The wait was a bit long though, almost 25+ minutes just to get to order, and sometimes other people (I assume related) just cut in to throw in 5 or 10 other orders. The food came out very fast at least and I enjoyed my bowl. I see they have an online ordering site, so I may try that next time to reduce the wait. Would love to try the other items.“

“Great greek food, very Tasty“

“Had their food for the first time the other day as takeout. Staff was very nice. Food was good. I had the gyro sparta wrap...very good I also tried their rice pudding. It was very good but I think $7 for a cup is pricey. I would go back to try other dishes.“

“I love Pi I enjoy getting my Greek frappe and other coffees from Pi. The pastries are exceptional and if you want to have lunch, you can also have fantastic Greek dishes. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable of the coffees and food that they serve. I go to Pi every time I’m in that neighborhood.“

“The moussaka is the best I have ever had by a landslide and one of my favorite dishes ever. I have ordered it probably 100 times and it never disappoints. The gigantes are scrumptious. Better of either those dishes would not be found in Greece. The atmosphere is simple because this isn't a fancy restaurant, but it is pleasant.“

“Really enjoyed our evening here! The cocktails were super innovative - they have “beertails” which are cocktails made with beer! We also tried their classic “mini” souvlaki and the 8 hour braised octopus! Our favorite was the Lamb Shank that fell right off the bone - we will definitely be back!“

“I came here for the chicken cheeseburger and fries, and both were really good -fresh, flavorful, and just the kind of comfort food you want. The service was friendly and the place feels cozy, nothing fancy but nice quality. I also tried the baklava since they didn’t have cheesecake that day. It was okay, maybe 6/10, not something I’d order again. But for sure, if you come here, get the chicken cheeseburger with fries , that’s the real highlight“

“First time here but will be back again and again. The food the ambiance the staff perfection. you feel like you're in Greece. the saladS are big and delish. 4 of us went and all loved their dishes. highly recommend. New fave. Yes a little pricey but worth it“

“Amazing and authentic Greek food. Absolutely the BEST!! A definite repeat again and again. Ask for momma’s specials, it varies by week, his mom makes delicacies.“

“Sea Salt is an absolute gem! The food was excellent—every dish was flavorful and beautifully prepared. The ambience was just as impressive, creating the perfect setting for a great meal. Drinks were on point, and the service was attentive and friendly. Everything from start to finish was amazing—I can't wait to go back!“

“Whoa! The food was amazing! Im pescatarian, so I had the fish, and it was delicious. Everything was so fresh. There was a humus plate with 3 different flavors, and the cucumbers were beautifully decorated around them. I must have eaten all of the cucumbers. In some restaurants, a fresh cucumber can be hard to come by. The fish arrived on a bed sautéed spinach, WOW ❤️❤️. The sliced pita bread with the humus was addictive. I definitely ate way more than I should have. While I dont eat meat, the other folks I was dining with said the chicken and beef options were just as delicious. It was family style, so we had lots of options. The restaurant is small but quaint, and the customer service was amazing. The food came out quickly, and there were about 13 of us. We had a reservation for 1 pm on a Thursday, and it was not crowded.

There isn't a lot of space to move around, so I would be conscious of carrying large bags or strollers.“

“The most delicious Greek food! From the hummus to the baklava, it was probably the best food we’ve had outside of Greece itself!!!“

“This place was fantastic! Over the years I've been here maybe 10 times. I never complain when my friends or family suggest this place to eat for dinner. The waitresses are always a pleasure to deal with. They assist me well when I ask for all my extras and meal modifications. The chef ?‍? in the back is on point. I wish GYRO TOWN long-term success in these challenging economic times

Parking: Paid street parking can be a bit full sometimes, causing me to circle once or twice. I typically never have to walk more than a half a block.“

“Amazing customer service and the food is phenomenal! Authentic Greek cuisine at its finest!! Definitely recommend!“

“A lot of delicious food and excellent service“

“Had a wonderful dinner upstairs at Axia celebrating our 53 rd Wedding Anniversary! Much more quiet than the downstairs room especially it you want to talk to your date! Loved the ambiance, wait staff, and especially the outstanding selection of food we ordered!“

“Awesome food presentation and ambiance! A definite “go back to again”!“

“Food is really good! Comparably priced to most of the fast casual restaurants in midtown area. Got the Piato both times, and the potatoes are great as a base. Chicken is crispy and nice, and the Bambi and Greek Salads are fire. Service is really really good too, and personally get a kick out of the door to the basement being covered by the trash can lol.

Def recommend for lunch / dinner!“

“Come and check out their lunch specials , Greek gyro , potato fries and a soda . It was delicious and affordable, say hello to George when you visit .“

“Enjoyed dinner at Anatoli last night for the first time and had a wonderful meal! I am gluten free, so the gf pita and options were so nice to have and tasted delicious. Can’t remember the last time I could eat a gyro! Looking forward to going back.“

“Kyma is a consistently excellent restaurant in every way. I am there often with my wife and with friends for both lunch and dinner and it is always a terrific dining experience. The food and service are excellent and the environment is warm and welcoming. The prices are reasonable and the portions are substantial. I come from the Upper East Side and friends come from Staten Island because it is well worth the trip. At this particular visit, our server was Kim and she was wonderful. She was responsive, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and friendly. It was easy to tell that she was an experienced hospitality professional. Thanks, Kim! You were great!“

“My friend invited me to try this place and honestly, I was a bit hesitant after reading some recent reviews. But she said it wouldn't hurt to try since we were already nearby, and I take it back! This spot just became my new favorite in the area. The staff were super nice and welcoming, and even though Greek food is new to me, everything my friend recommended was so good. Definitely worth every penny👌“

“I tried it and the food is exquisite, I recommend it 100% ✌️🥰“

“Ordered from Little Greek on a whim one night and was SO pleasantly surprised. I was greeted by the owner when I came in to pick up the food - so friendly and made sure everything was as correct on my order. We ordered the mixed meat plate and all 3 dips and everything was super delicious. We will definitely return and try the rest of the menu.“

“Good food !!! Nice atmosphere ! Cocktails a must !“

“Chic setting and great food.“

“Behind the unassuming food truck is some excellent greek food, with personable service..so glad my office is right next to it. Had lamb souvlaki (only meat) before and today had pork souvlaki (only meat) and both were grilled to perfection, fresh, juicy and perfectly spiced. So, thank you - I'm looking forward to trying other stuff.“

“The restaurant is a perfect place to taste Mediterranean cuisine. I would definitely recommend you to go and eat and feel the atmosphere. Also, there are well-packaged products that are beautifully presented for home orders. Definitely try them.“

“I've been coming here for years!!! The most authentic Greek food I've had here in the states. Everything on the menu is a hit. The food takes about 10 minutes if you order in-person. Everything is fresh, tasty, and quality. There is limited seating indoors but plenty of additional seating outside to immerse yourself in the Montclair streetscape. The owner, Efi, is extremely accommodating and professional. She cares deeply about the quality of food and service. I can't recommend this place enough. Fair warning though: you will crave Efi's Gyro after trying it!“

“Stopped in for lunch last week and loved it. The food was fresh and flavorful, with portions that satisfy without feeling heavy. The ambiance Greek décor and music really transports you, and the service was friendly, fast, and attentive. Plenty of parking makes it an easy choice. My wife had the salmon with a Greek salad, and I had the lentil soup plus lamb chops with a Greek salad everything was excellent. We highly recommend it. I’ll be back!“

“I never leave reviews, but this place really impressed me! Pappas New York has incredible Greek food — the lamb chops were tender and full of flavor, and the lobster pasta was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was great, and the staff went above and beyond. Especially Joni, who took amazing care of our table last Saturday — super attentive, professional and friendly the whole night. Don't want to forget the sparkling guy Jerry, he was amazing. Definitely one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in New York!“
