This place has the biggest balls, when I say that I haven’t ever had as big as balls in my mouth that tasted as good as they looked this place has them. Great spaghetti and bolognese, and the Greek appetizer where you get 3 choice, I got the spicy feta, taziki, and the dolma. Were so delicious. All of it is a 11/10 as far as taste and flavor.

This place is straight out of one of those “Kitchen Nightmares” episodes. The veal parmesan was a sloppy mess of canned tomato soup with some cheese on top. The veal tasted like process food that are in the frozen isle. The portion size was huge but I didn’t bother finishing it up because of how bad it was. How this place has 4+ rating is beyond me.

Delicious food and really good service
Cute quaint restaurant.
Great Greek food def want to come back to try the Italian.
Started with a Greek sampler of dolmas, falafel and hummus.
The chicken Slovakia had a great taste and char to it, definitely ask for extra napkins.
The house salad was ginornous.
If the food wouldn't have filled us up we have tried the baklava but that'll give us a reason to come back.

Review of Souvlaki House
I visited Souvlaki House with high hopes of enjoying authentic Greek cuisine, but unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. I was especially looking forward to the Greek salad, but what was served barely resembled one. Instead of the fresh, vibrant mix you'd expect, we got a bowl of iceberg lettuce, a couple of tomatoes, three olives, and a sprinkle of cheese. It lacked the flavors and ingredients that make a true Greek salad so special.
For my main course, I ordered chicken with artichokes, which sounded delicious on the menu, but the dish didn't live up to its description. While it wasn't terrible, it was just average and lacked the bold, Mediterranean flavors I was hoping for.
Overall, I left Souvlaki House feeling underwhelmed. The food didn’t capture the essence of Greek cuisine, and the meal didn’t leave me with the authentic taste I was craving.

This is not a traditional Italian restaurant. I ordered the Chicken Cacciatore, which was just okay. The pasta was served separately as a side, rather than being plated together with the cacciatore, which I found unusual.
The decor felt outdated, but the service was friendly and attentive.

Burnt, vinegary spanakopita.
Lamb full of gristle and tendons and seemingly unmarinated in lamb souvlaki. Yuk.

I recently dined at this restaurant, and it was an outstanding culinary experience! The food was excellent, and every dish was more delicious than the last. We ordered a variety of dishes, including pesto pasta, tomato-based pasta, and a creamy cheese pasta – all of which were simply amazing. The portions were generous, and it was clear that each ingredient was carefully selected.
The steak (from the first photo) was juicy and perfectly cooked. The pasta dishes were rich in flavor and had an excellent texture. The pesto pasta (from the third photo) stood out, with fresh and bold flavors.
The service was friendly and quick, and the atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming. I highly recommend this place for a great meal!

Small, clean place with a large variety on the menu to choose from, while there we took notice there was a ton of take out orders, but we dined in and had a great experience! Very positive, and kind staff with prompt service, delicious food, you can't ask for anything better

Called in a large order (7 entree's) at noon on a Friday, hostess was extremely welcoming and patient. Order was ready in 20 minutes and everything was spot on. Food was fresh and delicious.
Great job. We will definitely be back!
