“Everything about Mykos was first class Cuisine 5 star Atmosphere 5 star Cocktails 5 stars Wine selection 5 star Desert 5 star There was nothing about our first visit to Mykos Greek cuisine I would change.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Great food, Great service“

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

“We had an excellent experience at It’s Greek To Me in Fort Lee. The food was outstanding from start to finish. One of the biggest surprises was the bean soup it’s not ordered often (according to our server), but it was absolutely delicious and something totally new for us. Everything else was just as good: the fried zucchini croquettes, calamari, feta puffs with sriracha honey, Greek salad, NY strip steak, and the grilled seafood platter with shrimp, calamari, and octopus. For dessert, the baklava was classic and perfect, and the Greek yogurt with honey and walnuts was incredible.
The service truly stood out. Benny took amazing care of us and made the entire experience even better attentive, kind, and professional. Parking is available, which is a huge plus in Fort Lee. We would 100% come back and highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Great choice Restaurant would definitely come back“

“A great spot with fresh and delicious food. Attentive staff. Great for delivery but my gal and I love to go there and enjoy the cozy little dining room. 5 stars.“

“Fair disclaimer: this restaurant doesn't deserve 100% lamb. It's mainly 3/4's of the source - rest is beef. The chefs will inform you if asked. Real shame I never ate here prior to 2024, back when it was fully served (despite being a local resident for over two decades).

Now for the review.

TOP 3 Items:

1. Lamb Gyro Slice - make sure to get this with the white sauce. Their pizza's are top notch as well. Even a cheese slice is a 8/10.

2. Chicken sandwich combo with fries + Drink. Bread is tender, chicken patty quality tastes very fresh. Fries need added salt. Fruit Punch drink is amazing.

3. Lamb/Chicken/Mixed gyro. This is good for the first few times, but I definitely prefer the first two on this list over the signature gyros now.

Shoutout to their main Gyro Chef. Very friendly staff. Only would come here to mostly take out, or have a small chat with the employees while eating a slice or hot sausage.“

“This little spot is big on delicious food, wonderful service and amazing hospitality! The food is always consistent, always fresh and always satisfying!“

“Everything is wonderful, the grilled octopus is especially delicious.“

“Food - 3 ⭐️
Service - 4 ⭐️
Atmosphere- 5 ⭐️

Fries cooked perfectly, lamb/beef gyros good portion, falafels were awful. Fries & gyro both lacked FLAVOR/seasoning, falafel must be a basic frozen brand and I tossed them after eating only one. The price point is worth stopping in to decide for yourself because we all understand food is different for each individual. What I’m used to is more flavor forward but this worked for a quick bite before headed to the airport for my flight home.“

“It is probably the Best Greek restaurant in the whole Bergen County. I was impressed with the layout, the waiters were very helpful, and gave us the best advice, even for the pickiest of us. After the Greek salad, crisp zucchini, and grilled calamari, the Pastitsio, Moussaka, and seafood Giouvetsi all cooked in clay pots filled us up, but then the lamb chops with lemon potatoes arrived, and nobody could resist them. For dessert we had a platter of galaktobureko"milkpie" and one called ekmek, that we could not decide which was the best. We will definitely come back, but we better fast in advance.“

“τέλειο. .!.! . !.!.!.!.!“

“The moment you walk in, it feels like stepping into a small Greek city — the atmosphere is so authentic and welcoming. You can immediately feel the comfort of it being a family-run business. The owners and staff are incredibly kind and make you feel right at home. The traditional Greek food is absolutely outstanding — everything tasted so fresh and full of flavor. From the perfectly seasoned meats to the crisp, vibrant salads, every dish was a reminder of true, homemade Greek cooking. You can tell they put so much pride and heart into everything they serve. I can’t wait to come back!“

“A perfect balance of taste and atmosphere which makes it our favorite spot for client lunches and team dinners.“

“Good food.. priced right !“

“Had a great time? DJ was good & service was exceptional!“

“Su comida atención y la gran variedad de mariscos“

“we had the house white wine, carbonara,, and the gyro plate. we had no complaints. service was great food and wine were delicious and it came out quickly. highly recommend.“

“Just got home with our food that we ordered on the phone. This was our second time ordering from Yassou. We enjoyed our chicken gyros so much the first time that we ordered them again. Plus we ordered two sides - gigante beans and rice pilaf. The beans were absolutely delicious, however the rice pilaf was a big disappointment. First of all, it was not rice pilaf. It was basic basmati rice and worse was, it was seasoned with cilantro. Cilantro?? In a Greek rice side dish? And you pay $9.00.“

“We were in the area to see Cherry Blossom Festival in the local park. We originally planned to eat at our favorite restaurant Istanbul in Clifton NJ. We got hungry and looked for close by Turkish restaurants, found this place. Absolutely loved the ambiance, food and the service. We are hooked for life. Try the Calamari for appetizer, lamb shish kababs for main entry. Food was authentic and cooked to perfection. We will be back.“
