50 Best Greek Restaurants near Flushing

“My go to place when visiting mom in Bayside. Incredible Moussaka 5 stars“

“Authentic Flavors and Warm Hospitality!
I had an incredible experience at Plateia GR! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with friendly smiles and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that immediately set the tone for the evening.
The food was absolutely delicious — everything tasted fresh and authentically Greek. The grilled octopus was tender and perfectly seasoned, the meatballs were so moist and so good, and the gyro was delicious and full of flavor. The tzatziki and warm pita were the best I’ve ever had, and the galaktobouriko at the end of the meal was the perfect sweet finish.
What really stood out was the staff’s genuine hospitality — they took the time to explain the dishes and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed.
If you’re looking for a place that serves real Greek cuisine with heart and care, this is it. I can’t wait to come back!“

“The food was ok. No AC in the restaurant and muggy outdoor eating made it hard. I asked for no tomatoes or olives in my salad and she brought me a full plate of tomatoes in my salad so I didn’t eat it as I never return food. The place needs a good cleaning.“

“Great place to eat great service, you won’t be disappointed 🥂“

“Delicious! Friendly service.“

“Love this spot- brought my parents who were visiting from out of town. Even in January they still find a way to find the most ripe and flavorful tomatoes. Every dish is thoughtfully prepared and served. Family owned and operated - nothing more iconically Astorian :)“

“Five of us had a party on Saturday evening. The tavern was quite busy which reflected on service (our waiter wasn't present all the time). But I can understand that.
The space itself doesn't look like a typical Greek tavern, but high ceiling, good furniture and an appropriate lighting are definitely worth mentioning.
The food is good, but some portions are too small. For example, Greek salad is very tasty, but the portion is way too small. The same goes for grilled saganaki. In addition, our lamb chops were served well-done, although we asked for medium. On the other hand, our red snapper was great.
Restrooms are too small for a restaurant with this capacity.
The wine list should be MUCH better.
Overall, it wasn't a bad experience. And the prices are very reasonable to be honest.
However, if I compare the food and portions with some other Greek taverns in Astoria I have to admit there are better options.“

“Great food - nice & friendly staff - reasonable prices Everything is excellent“

“Great food and not expensive“

“The soups and quinoa falafel 🥙 are out of this world . Mouth waters just thinking about next time I will be eating these items“

“Yo!!!! This place is so good. The host or maître D or whatever you wanna call him was like the most gracious person ever! Treated me and this hot girl that I’m currently seeing like we were family. Offered us some free Uzo drinks, which I’ve never had but now I’m throwing back like a bottle a week! Anyway, the food was off the hook. Please, please please don’t even get me started on the riblets!! I probably crushed like four orders spent my whole paycheck. Worth it!“

“Delicious Greek food Delicious seafood Excellent service Great atmosphere Feel likes home,so friendly owners and staff love this gem I’ll be back“

“Great atmosphere. Fantastic food.“

“The food is great…specially the Grill Octopus 🐙 👍👍“

“Best authentic Greek in NYC. Top notch service. Thank you for the complimentary desserts!!“

“Beautiful restaurant, very homey and warm environment
Service was friendly and decent
Food was okay, definitely better options in Astoria and better priced, but portion sizes were very generous. The only dish we really didn’t like was the octopus, they serve it cold and had a funny after taste but everything else was good. Dakos salad was nice and ribeye was perfectly cooked. Lavraki was tasty“

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

“I had the octopus, greek salad, zucchini chips and steak for Dinner. Everything from start to finish was tasty and of excellent quality. 5 stars all the way! I will be returning.“

“The food & the service are both amazing.“

“Live music events and dinner“

“We would like to thank the Avra Team for the wonderful experience we had celebrating our son's 1 year old birthday and his grandparents 40th wedding anniversary. Beautiful place for special celebration! Sophisticated ambience, attentive staff, exceptional service, delicious Greek food! We highly recommend making reservation in advance!“

“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.“

“your Chicken Soup And Your Kindness“

“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”“

“It's my go-to spot whenever I'm nearby and craving some delicious Greek food. It might take a little while to get my order by NYC standards but pretty fast for weatchester, but the short wait is more then worth it. The staff there are genuinely friendly and kind, which makes the experience even better always going the extra mile“

“Muy buena atención y la comida excelente“

“Really enjoyed this place. You can tell they use fresh fish by the taste of their food. It feels like a truly authentic Greek kitchen, not touristy at all. I ordered Branzino and it was super tasty and cooked just right. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff — would happily come back.“

“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.“

“Πολυ ωραίο φαγητό και εξαιρετικό το σέρβις“

“Christos Souvlaki Stand is a gold mine and I say that because there isn't a day that there isn't a swarm of customers gathered here. His souvlaki is the absolute best within the Astoria area!
It's always so fresh, well seasoned and prepared right in front of you and can be topped with whatever sauce you want - my go to is the BBQ sauce.
100% RECOMMEND!“

“Had such a wonderful experience at Herb & Olive! The food was so fresh and delicious and our server Zoya was so amazing. She made great recommendations and was so sweet and accommodating with our son!“

“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.“

“Best Restaurant in the area. Seriously.“

“Great restaurant! Great food! Great staff! We love it. We ate there 3 times in 24 hours.“

“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!“

“we asked for a delivery yesterday, and it was delicious. particularly recommended the moussaka, and the lamb meatballs (with Lotus of tzatziki 🙂)“

“EXCELLENT! Gluten Free Pitas - delicious! Great selection, huge portions, fast delivery. Our new go to for Greek food!“

“The octopus is PERFECTLY cooked. The flavors are incredible. I only wish it came with some potato or salad underneath. We also got the lamb fricassee, that sauce is so lovely and lemony. I think the lamb was just a touch over cooked but that is my only note on that dish. We got a half portion of rice on the side and I would recommend so you can savor every last bit of the sauce! The service is great, and I love the atmosphere. It feels like old New York and you are surrounded by Greek families in the restaurant. They gave bread with a delish vinegar and the end of the meal was a nice rice pudding dessert on the house. I will definitely be coming back!“

“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!“

“Thank you SO SO munch for sending all of the staff at Kids Campus of Lynbrook such an amazing spread of delicious Greek food , you have really gone above and beyond . When you have a chance please drop off a few Menu's <3 The food taste amazing !“

“Came here on a Saturday at 4 pm . Was pretty dead . Not sure why . The atmosphere, service, food was AMAZING. From the octopus appy & feta dip , to all entrees was so delicious, especially the seafood pasta dish . The balaclava was to die for …. Highly recommend this wonderful friendly restaurant to any foodie looking for an exquisite meal . ♥️“

“Good service, nice food. Good Atmosphere.“

“We ordered assorted gyros, souvlaki, tacos and baklava. The staff was friendly and the service was wonderful. Over all decent and accommodating to the greek culture with a twist of spanish. Only thing I would change is to add oragano salt and pepper to the gyros and don't blend the tzatziki makes it a bit pasty in texture but flavor was 7/10. The baklava less refrigerated time and more syrup not leaving the tops so dry. Would visit again.“

“Chic setting and great food.“

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

“THE best Greek food outside Greece!!!!! Simply delicious!!!“
