“Great greek food, very Tasty“

“My oh my, what a delicious meal. I have never had better flatbread in my life. The small salad with gyro was more than enough for a meal. And my favorite dessert- Galaktoboureko!!! I’m so happy I had dinner here.“

“Went on a Friday night without a reservation, grabbed a drink at the bar, and were seated within 10–15 minutes

Food:
• Zucchini chips: Thin, crispy, and lightly salted, golden and addictive. Very close to my all-time favorites.
• Spicy feta dip: Creamy with a balanced heat; rich but not overwhelming.
• Grilled octopus: Surprisingly tender with a subtle char and bright. Not something I usually order, but I’d absolutely get it again.
• Branzino: Moist, flaky, and deeply flavorful, super light
• Rice: Fragrant and savory - unexpectedly excellent.
• Lemon potatoes: perfect with a bold citrus punch.

Service: Warm, attentive, and efficient from start to finish.

A true standout and an easy repeat. Officially added to my list of favorite Greek restaurants.“

“Came here for Monday lunch. Food was good but not amazing. But the service was very slow. Ordered the standard lunch prefix menu (app, main, dessert) and ended up spending almost 2 hours, mostly in waiting, not what I would expect from lunches.“

“We first heard about Tony’s on Jon Barr’s YouTube channel (prepping for our first NYC visit). Can only say that this is the perfect spot to get food, and then go eat it in Central Park.

Both times we visited the food was great, staff was very friendly & we received our orders within a couple of minutes.

The memorable comment from my girlfriend - “I want to move to NYC because of Tony’s”“

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

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

“I’ve been eating at Souvlaki GR locations in the city for almost ten years, the exceptional quality of the food, service and atmosphere has been consistent throughout that time. Almost always my first stop in manhattan when I arrive. I hope it’s here forever. There’s nothing better than a lamb souvlaki and a glass of mastiha. Cheers guys! Rock on.“

“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.“

“Jenny treated us with wonderful service. I had walked in to Meraki for and was seated right away. We had the octopus, Greek salad, and shared the meat platter. Everything was cooked to perfection. The baklava was amazing, will definitely coming back to try more.
Definitely one of the most underrated Mediterranean restaurants in Williamsburg.“

“The best Greek food in America and the best service“

“Been in many Greek restaurants in NYC and this is by far my favorite place. The food is delicious and takes me back to summer vacation in Greece. Definitely going back!!“

“We were there in December and came across Symposium while walking. We were impressed by the cozy atmosphere and the amazing service we received. Our server knew a lot about the history of the restaurant and was helpful in suggesting a wine with dinner. The hummus, lemon potatoes and steamed vegetables were all very savory! I highly recommend and we will be back next time in NYC!“

“Amazing lunch and very friendly 😀“

“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.“

“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“

“A lot of delicious food and excellent service“

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

“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“

“This restaurant serves amazing and fabulous food. Everything - from the starters to the entrees to dessert is terrific.“

“The best restaurant ever delicious food,sweet service“

“Very knowledgeable and super friendly staff. I have eaten here several times with family and friends. The food is always fresh and delicious. 😋 Highly recommend!“

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

“Honestly one of my top 10 meals in NYC. This is proper, proper Greek food, run by Greek people (we are a half Greek family that spends summers in Greece so we know…). Celebrated my birthday here and they made it so special. Wonderful place with an amazing view. They host small and big parties and have a big outdoor section in the summer. We’ll be coming back. A lot! Thank you!“

“Best Greek food in NJ! tastes just like you are eating in Greece.“

“If you want fresh and authentic Greek food then you need to try this place. Everything is so flavorful and the ingredients are all fresh. Everything was hand made to order. Everything we ordered was delicious, I could’ve ordered the whole menu lol. Now that I have tried it, I will be ordering from here all the time. The owners are very friendly and make sure everything is to your liking.“

“I really love the food at Pita Yeero. I always get the meatless meatball pita sandwich as well as the chicken one. Their vegetarian options are great, and it’s not just limited to falafel. It’s in a cafeteria style building with lots of other food options called “The Hungry Pearl”. I work across the street and think this is a great lunch option. Fast and friendly service. Be warned though, they often close earlier than their hours state, normally around 3 most days.“

“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!“

“Very nice space. The restaurant is clean and has tables if you want to dine in. I visited after the gym and wanted something lighter after my smoothie. Food is fairly priced but they do charge for side. Overall great space and service was quick.“

“Magnificent Mediterranean restaurant. The ambiance was very relaxed, cozy and friendly! Our waiter was very patient and gave us great advice !!! We got to choose our fresh fish directly at the fish market inside of the restaurant itself ! Incredible !
The first bite brought me back to Greece and its salty fresh winds.
I will definitely come back !“

“Great food, Great service“

“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.“

“Haven't been to Kyma in a while and I was very impressed with our entire experience. The Restaurant Week dinner menu was varied, for anyone's pallet, our dishes were delicious as was our selection of a bottle of the Sancerre. Our waiter was informative, patient, helpful and attentive; the Manager (or asst Manager) that gifted us with an after dinner liqueor (perfect instead of Sambucca) was engaging, educating & generous with his attention...a wonderful experience“

“Travelled back to Greece tasting this delicious food! Baklava hot chocolate & Loukaniko pita. 🤤 Greek food NEVER disappoints!“
