“I honestly love a good chicken over rice platter and usually have to drive all the way to Hicksville which is pretty inconvenient. This spot is less than 10 minutes away from where I attend school so I had to try it out and I’m so glad I did! I stuck to the classic chicken over rice platter. It tasted fresh and the service was great too— nice people and I got my food in a matter of minutes! This place definitely just became my go to spot for gyro!“
“Went to Blue Waters on a Saturday night. Definitely suggest making a reservation which we had because it is tight but cozy. Food was delicious. We had the Greek salad, branzino and salmon. baklava for dessert. Drinks were yummy too! Only negative was music a little too loud.“
“I ordered food for a party to take out and got excellent advice about amounts. Not too much, but plenty. And it was so good! I ordered lamb gyro, chicken souvlaki, spanakopita, grilled vegetables, falafel, lemon potatoes, and a tray of Greek salad. Everyone was so happy with the food. And the staff are so nice, and go above and beyond. This is my new favorite Greek spot. It should be yours too.Vegetarian options: I think a vegetarian would be happy here.Dietary restrictions: My party had vegans, vegetarians, omnivores, and food allergies. Everything was separated as I asked.Parking: There’s 4-6 spots behind the restaurant and you can also park on the street.“
“No nonsense Greek food mostly for takeout although there are a few tables to eat in. The chicken souvlaki is good but the homemade chicken gyro is even better. They don't always have it available though. Reasonably priced and they usually prepare orders quickly. Always a good choice for Greek in Merrick or nearby towns.“
“For me, consistency is a major factor when it comes to choosing where to eat. Gyrolicious is consistently serving up some of the best Greek food I've had outside of Astoria, and the staff is always very welcoming. The portions are very generous, and never lack in flavor. You can tell they really take pride in serving their customers and the quality of the food they put out. Absolutely recommend!“
“Pretty decent location and a good Gyro platter. I went there because I was waiting for my appointment at the barbershop and I’m glad that I drop by. I was hungry and I chose the Gyro platter which is normally my favorite.They did a decent job give me a salad with it, which I think was part of the lunch special service was good and the food was deliciousVegetarian options: YesDietary restrictions: No gluten-freeParking: YesKid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“Amazing restaurant whether it's with friends or family! One of my best friends from college raved about this restaurant and it's easily a hidden gem! You wouldn't normally expect to have a Greek-Mexican fusion restaurant but this one is amazing! I highly recommend getting their stuffed poblano peppers (stuffed with Cauliflower as I'm vegetarian) - 11/10! They even have mocktails and I recommend the mango mule - which I absolutely loved! Will definitely be back here, but given today was Saturday, the restaurant was busy so you couldn't hear the conversation, but food and service are top notch! Also...Food Network...get here ASAP!“
“I came here quickly for a lunch break and the food was fresh and came quickly. Tasted great and the staff were so friendly and helpful. I loved the cozy feel inside the restaurant too. I wish I lived closer so I can come more often. Thanks again!“
“Hard to find good Greek food and this is my go-to place. There's a reason they're busy, probably the most consistent place of it's kind. I've had almost everything on the menu and you can't go wrong. Limited seating and call ahead to order, they are a busy place.“
“This was my first time at the restaurant with my friend. We were looking for a healthy spot to eat and this hit the mark.I ordered a "build your own bowl" with grilled veggies and lemon potatos as a base. You get to pick two meat options, or an extra amount of one meat. I got chicken souvlaki. I added lettuce, tomato, peppers, kalamata olives, hummus and spicy tzaziki.The veggies were fresh, the potatos were cooked perfectly with delicious lemon flavor, the chicken was juicy and seasoned well.The service was friendly and helpful. They asked how everything was after we ate.The restaurant felt lit up, modern and welcoming. I'll definitely be back to eat there soon.Vegetarian options: You can make a variety of vegetarian salads, bowls and pita dishes with the ingredients available“
“Really good whole, fresh fish!! I always get the whole branzino and it is soo delicious. My husband gets the flounder or lamb shanks and loves both. Just had Red Snapper Santorini and it was great. All meals are served with a family style Greek Salad and Pita Bread.“
“One of the best Greek restaurants around. There are a couple tables inside and you can also take out which we do often. The food is always delicious and fresh. Everything from the gyro, chicken, the fries, the Tzatziki, heck even the dressing on the salad is good. It’s always consistent and the portions are very generous. Highly recommend!“
“I live in Brooklyn, NY. However, periodically I will drive 55 minutes just to eat at Nautilus Diner. The food is always delicious, and the service is great. The apple crumb cheesecake is an absolute must. I always feel right at home whenever I'm there.“
“The restaurant is in a low traffic area and seems to do decent with takeout. I haven't seen anyone sit down yet each time I went. Restaurant looks pretty clean and full of space. The folk working here are pretty nice. Portion sizes are either lunch or dinner size for your platters. Even the lunch size is a good size portion enough for one person. The dinner size is enough for two people. When we ordered the lunch size for gyro, we had a choice of either a salad or a soup for the first side which is separate from the gyro and there is a second side that goes along with the gyro, so you can pick one of the following fries, rice, lemon potatoes or grilled vegetables. The container is filled about 80% full with grilled pita. When we ordered the dinner size for gyro, its the same as lunch but you can pick two of the sides that go along the gyro. This is effectively filling your container all the way to the top at 100% filled with grilled pita. Recently it appears they increased this to up to three sides, but I imagine they will just reduce the portion size of each side if you pick three but would still fill the container full. The Greek salad is good and the soups we tried were also good. The gyros and chicken souvlaki were on point.“
“Since we went on Easter Sunday we expected a mediocre dining experience ourselves was THE BEST in a long time. The service was exceptional. We were 7 of us. We had lamb chops to Bronzino to sesame tuna to filet minion skewers to a burger. Everything was so delicious prepared to perfection. We will be returning and recommend this restaurant to everyone. The manager Nikko oversaw a wonderful dining experience..... Thank you“
“I love Athena Greek Restaurant in Amityville. I haven't found a Greek restaurant I like better in the area. I don't want to name the places I think are awful because I don't give bad reviews. I realize how it can have a negative effect on a business. If I don't like it I just don't go back. The food is amazing. The Spanakopita is excellent. I get the Chicken in an orange ginger sauce or the berry sauce. I have become a regular patron and I will continue to come once a week. They do great take out as well. The service is great you will not be disappointed.“
“The food was delicious. You have to try the falafel. The salmon as always exquisite. The atmosphere is good, but apparently they receive more orders for delivery than for eating in. Given that, I understand that they do not have the correct utensils for when customers come to eat at the premises since most of their orders are for takeout. Although it may be different in summer, I went in winter. very good service, I would return to this place. 10/10Vegetarian options: HOMEMADE HUMMUS. BABA GHANOUSH. SPICY ROASTED PEPPER & FETA DIP. DIP ASSORTMENT (PIKILIA). STUFFED GRAPE LEAVES V. FALAFEL VG .SPINACH PIE. ZUCCHINI FRIES. MOZZARELLA STICKS (6) HALLOUMI CHEESE. And more salads and seafood options.“
“The food is always good. The service was good but they were so overbooked and busy that they could not possibly be as excellent as they usually are. I Hate to not give them an amazing review because I am a regular and always have great service and excellent food there but last night was crazy busy. We waited a very long time to sit and we had reservations for 4 at 7:40lm. We waiting again a long time to get our food order in and then they were out of bronzino so it wasn't the same as usual. But I do highly recommend this restaurant and as I've said, I usually have an amazing overall experience there.“
“My husband and I found out about this place through a neighbor. It's located right by the Bethpage LIRR so street parking can be a little tight. If you have a LIRR parking permit or visit after rush hour, then parking shouldn't be an issue. We ordered their Chicken Gyro and Chicken Souvlaki lunch specials. The lunch specials came with a cup of soup and a Greek salad. We are big fans of their tomato orzo soup but they only had lemon chicken soup or mushroom barley soup that day. We tried their lemon chicken soup and thought it was surprisingly good. The lemon flavor was subtle so it wasn't too sour and the soup was served warm. The Greek salad was a decent portion and came with a lot of toppings. My favorite part was the stuffed grape leaf! We decided to order a Combo of Three (garlic dip, hummus, and stuffed grape leaves) as well. We were blown away by the hummus and thought the garlic dip was more like a pureed potato salad. It was good but wasn't great. The Chicken Gyro was good but I felt the Chicken Souvlaki looked tastier. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu as everything was prepared well. It's just a matter of personal preference. P.S. You get free pita bread and tzatziki with your orders!“
“Amazing Authentic Greek Food In Syosset on Jackson Ave! I found this place while at an appointment in the area and it was phenomenal! The Chicken gyro was so juicy! I absolutely loved the best! The Tzatziki sauce is made fresh it is simply amazing and the pita bread is home made it tastes like it was made in Greece. This is small quaint beautiful place in a shopping center that takes pride in their culture and heritage, it shows as you step in. I love it! ? ???️Family run..Kathy and John are great people extremely nice, funny and accommodating. The lunch specials are a great deal. I understand from John they are going strong since 1985 that’s incredible? I am so glad I found them..better late than never. I will be back again!“
“Discovered a local gem in Greek Delight, a quaint hole-in-the-wall with freshly made, well-portioned Greek food. The fair price point aligns with the quality, and what truly stands out is the impeccable customer service, consistently earning a 10/5 rating during our visits. Accurate orders and prompt serving make it a delightful spot, and the food itself is truly satisfying. Highly recommend this place.“
“A favorite local Greek eatery. Great portions. Reliable quality. Clean place. From gyro to plates, side salad and soup, everything has flavor and isnt skimpy.Tender chicken kebab, delicious salad dressing with real olive (not some lame oil and vinegar).Lunch menu is a great offering that gives you options for multiple flavors to sample. Recommended.“
“Each time I go to Yiasou Yeeros, it's the same. I'm greeted heartily and I'm given fabulous food! I've ordered almost everything on the menu over the years. There isn't anything I haven't liked! Sometimes I've eaten there; sometimes I have had take-out. The service is impeccable in both cases. Everyone I took there agrees: it's a special place!“
“Dined in for lunch with a work colleague today. Quick service, friendly staff, good food. 2 soups, 2 meals, 2 drinks, and some pita for $46.71. The lemon chicken soup was great, awesome flavor. The lemon potatoes were on point, though the gyro pita was a tad salty, good pita nonetheless. $2.25 for a can of soda was excessive. I'd go back, 86 the beverage and try another dish.Vegetarian options: Falafel, salads, sides, apps, etc.Parking: Bunch of spots“
“Really delicious food here. Very fast delivery, I was actually shocked when the man rang the bell because I felt like I just hung up the phone giving them my order. I got the gyro platter and it was yummy. I wasn't crazy for their white sauce for some reason and I didn't love the peas in the rice but over all it was a great meal“
“I really like this place it's super clean people are friendly and helpful. It's good for catering and the food is really fresh. Their bread is nice which is always an afterthought with Greek food but in their case it's good and their salads are usually crispy and fresh“
