“Best Greek food we've had in the area for sure! Everything was cooked perfectly and very especially the lamb chops, lamb shank, and branzino (we are a picky group about how lamb and fish are cooked and everyone was very satisfied!) We came back two weeks in a row just to try more plates. Highly recommend this place!“

“I grew up in Chicago and frequently visited Greek Town while growing up where I learned to love Greek food and culture. It was amazing!!! Then I left in 1982 only to find that there were no real excellent Greek restaurants in the immediate Herndon area. How disappointing...we even traveled to Greece to get our fix. Then we stumbled into your Sterling, VA restaurant last week. We LOVE your restaurant, staff, and the food is better than anything we have ever had before. We have eaten at your restaurant two times now in a week and carry out tonight and it was always OUTSTANDING! The gyro, chicken souvlaki roasted potatoes, and string beans are the real deal. Can't wait to continue try other items on the menu! Kudos to you all and truly 5 Stars!!!! Keep it up and don't leave.“

“It's Amphoras! It's an institution! Great breakfast featuring a waiter in a tux! He was all business and got us taken care of very well! Biscuits and gravy were amazing and my wife had a delicious looking omelette that she wouldn't share, so great food. Not highway robbery. This is the diner experience Im looking for!
Kid-friendliness: This is a great place with many kid options and a low key vibe.“

“In recent years there seems to be a proliferation of small-plate Mediterranean restaurants. But Yayla remains as one of the best, reasonably priced originals in northern Virginia. There is a pleasing range of mezzes, salads, entrees hot and cold, flat breads, spreads, etc . I had a Yayla mule, 3 spreads, lemony rice soup and superb shrimp. Friends chose a range of other dishes. I can guarantee whatever you choose, you won’t be disappointed. Everything is flavorful, fresh and beautifully presented. Wait staff and servers are friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and not obtrusive. Don’t miss the nice selection of creative cocktails, wine variety and desserts. Continued success and best wishes for this popular bistro!“
“Delicious food and ample drink selection!! Awesome local spot! Look forward to many return trips!“

“Wow x10! Probably the best falafel & gyro I’ve had in very long time since I lived in Chicago. Don’t get me started on the baklava. They made this with the most detailed attention and poured their love into it. I highly recommend this place. My new favorite Greek restaurant.“

“The gentleman at the counter had wonderful customer service. We paid for our food even brought it to the table, which was very nice. It felt like fine dining, he gave us a bit of conversation and seem like such a pleasant gentlemen. I enjoyed the food. It was amazing. I eat every drop and the baklava ice cream with everything took a friend for the first time. My friend said he enjoyed it, and we will definitely be back again. I recommend this place highly if you love Greek food and gyros.“
“This Greek restaurant in Potomac, MD is a hidden gem. The lobster spaghetti was rich and perfectly balanced, and the dessert—simple, elegant, unforgettable. The menu is carefully curated, and it shows. This is their second restaurant—the first has been around for over 30 years. They know what they’re doing. Small space, so definitely make a reservation—but bar seating is just as good (we sat there and loved it). Carlos the bartender and the whole staff were amazing. We were the only Black/brown folks there, and felt completely welcomed. Don’t miss this spot—real food, real hospitality, real experience.“

“Their pizzas are incredible, and the Greek and Italian dishes never disappoint. Even the salads, starters, and hotdogs are solid. The restaurant manager Fadi and Henry are super friendly. I have been coming here at least once a week, and I love it. Definitely one of the best spots in the area :)“

“Comfort food, consistently good with quick service.Your coffee cup will never be empty in this place.
I am originally from NJ and this place feels like a diner from home. Carlos is welcoming and helped make my omelet today extra amazing! I told him I always order the farmer's omelet but today I was considering the country omelet. With a knowing smile, he suggested combining ingredients from both and the food came out fast, way more than I could eat in one sitting and it was perfect. Thank you, Carlos:)“

“I love the Greek Chicken and the Greek soup is awesome! Very friendly staff with great service.The menu is massive, covering Greek specialties, Italian staples, pizza, burgers, and hot subs. The Greek food is where they really hit their stride—the gyro platter, chicken souvlaki, and homemade grape leaves are consistently fresh and packed with flavor. Their steak and cheese subs hit the mark, the pizza is solid, and the crab cakes are surprisingly good for a casual grill. Portions are huge across the board, so plan on taking food home or having the kids split a dish.“

“The food here is amazing. I had to check myself a few times because I was sitting there devouring my dinner like an animal, lol. The chicken was crispy outside and juicy inside. The plantains and green beans stood out on their own even without rhe chicken. At any other restaurant, green beans are just a filler side item, but here they are standout delicious. Possibly the best I have ever eaten. They cleaned tables as soon as customers left. Service was great. We were totally impressed with this place. We looked at other places for dinner, and left here convinced that there is no other restaurant within nearby that would have been more satisfying.“

“I’ve been coming to this location pretty much every weekend for the last 3 years and realized I’ve never actually left a review! They have another location that is bigger than this one, but honestly, this one is the better spot for food, service, and the overall vibe. I actually live closer to the Falls Church location but still make the drive here because the staff are always super friendly and the experience is consistently good. On Fridays and Saturday, it can get a little busy a hectic but the wait usually isn’t too bad, maybe around like 10–15 minutes. My order has always come out right and the food tastes fresh and delicious every time I’ve been here.
The place itself is clean, condiments are always stocked, and there’s a really nice mural on the wall that gives it a cozy feel. Nice music playing most of the time I come and seating is a little tight but it’s comfortable. Every time I come in,I’m greeted right away and the staff have been the same since I first started coming so they know what they’re doing. If there ever is an issue, they’re quick to fix it. If you have any allergies or food restrictions, they are pretty accommodating to requests so that is something to consider.
Overall, this has been one of my go-to spots for Greek food for years! Consistently good food, good prices, and really great service.“
