50 Best Greek Restaurants near Hoboken

“If you’re looking for fresh, authentic and delicious Greek food, this is it!! I was greeted by an attentive, friendly staff that provided exactly what we ordered. Everything was hot and packaged to perfection. The pork gyro was absolutely spectacular with the works: tender, flavorful meat, French fries, tzatziki, Tomatoes and onions on soft pita bread. You will not leave this place disappointed. Thank you Plaka Souvlaki!“

“Really great restaurant. Food quality is amazing, huge portions, and reasonable cost. This is one of the best Greek restaurants in the area, highly recommend. The best part of the restaurant though was our waiter Christian. He was the most attentive, kind, and helpful waiter we've had in a long time. Typically, waiters will take your order, deliver your food, and clean up. Christian went way above and beyond. From his recommendations, to anticipating our needs before we ask for them, he made every effort to provide top notch service. We'll come back just for Christian, the great food is an added bonus.“

“Excellent food, a bit on the pricy side compared to other Greek places around but great food. The moussaka was great, served in a small dish, definitely worth sharing. We ordered daily speciality and were not disappointed. Our sever was lovely, she had a very authentically welcoming vibe, could be the Greek hospitality; but I loved how genuine she presented herself, the staff was lovely as well.“

“Amazing food! Wonderful service and Chef Marie Loi is a joy! My new “must go when I’m in NY” restaurant!“

“Great staffs & good food!“

“Everything was amazing from service to decor to food and drinks. Highly recommend!“

“Last night I had the most delightful experience here. Not only was the food extremely delicious, also the owner was exceptional nice. Reminded me of my time in Greece!Portion size is huge, looking forward to eat the left overs for lunch today :)Especially enjoyed the pork gyro.“

“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 on a Saturday night with reservations. Very lively. Waiters were attentive. The shrimp saganaki was flavorful. The octopus was exceptional. The lamb chop was delicious. Wasn’t a big fan of the baked clams. They were too oily and not fresh. I don’t think the waiter seemed to care when my friend told him. However, we had a good time as the drinks were good.“

“Amazing food, the spinach pie, greek expresso martini, and the vegetarian moussaka was beyond anything I’d imagine. The hostess Milena was beyond amazing, and the bartender Fausto was very attentive. I will make sure the Citi team is aware about this place.Definitely will be back!“

“Had a 'dinner' of appetizers here with the family. Something for everyone-from the vegan, the vegetarian, to the carnivores. We enjoyed the fava beans dish, loved the liver and sweet reads, and the meatballs. Atmosphere was quiet, and the spot is small, so for a larger group-we we're 5 people, I'd make a reservation. Food came out super fast, and the staff was very friendly. Next time we will try the dishes.“

“Nisi's atmosphere is immaculate--all white interior and the sounds of beautiful Greek music. The service was great too and they were helpful to tell us that the lemon potatoes are vegan! Menu clearly marked to show vegetarian options. The horiatiki salad and the fresh galaktoboureko were my personal favorites. Food on the pricier end, but then again, it's a whole lot cheaper than a flight to Greece...Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available, but somewhat limited to mezzes (appetizers)“

“Awesome brunch. Wait is really long on the weekend however and they only do walk-ins. Food came out slow and service left something to be desired but food mostly made up for it. I'd definitely try and come here more often if I lived closer and it wasn't as busy!“

“What a fabulous experience we had! The food was simply amazing and fresh and perfectly prepared. The service was excellent and the restaurant itself is beautiful! I wish I had taken more pictures but I think the fact that I didn’t just proves how immersed our group was in the experience. Simply devine and I cannot wait to return next time I’m in the city!Dietary restrictions: We had someone in our party who was gluten free and they took good care of her and she had plenty of options to choose from.“

“Finally made it here! We opted to sit at the bar instead of our table, the bartender Vassilios was awesome with drinks and menu recommendations.We tried a bunch of appetizers- the tirokafteri and the octopus were our favorite (definitely get those!), but everything we tried was delicious. For dinner our favorite was the lamb chops which were outstanding.Definitely a great addition to the neighborhood and worth a visit.“

“Went today for the first time, wonderful staff and the food was incredible. Great size portions, every part of our meal was delicious. Cannot wait to go back again. Well worth the ride from Ramsey. NJ“

“Fantastic!! What a fun evening we had! Such a great neighborhood find. Started with happy hour cocktails at the bar. The cocktail menu is fabulous, the drinks were inventive, delicious, and presented beautifully. Bartenders were helpful, friendly, and made sure we loved our cocktails. Dinner was delicious! We were a group of four and shared a Greek salad, grilled octopus, lamb chops, and Branzino. Everything was incredible, with plenty for 4. Our waiter kept an eye on us and made sure we were well taken care of. The restaurant is very attractive inside, had a nice crowd, and noise level was good even when very full. We will be back, and often. Prices are very fair. The staff here are really great, makes a difference!“

“Really excellent Greek place. This is the second time I’ve visited and I’ve been impressed on both occasions by the lovely food. The tuna-salmon carpaccio is gorgeous and so good I regretted having to share it. The ink risotto and the sea bass with gnocchi are both wonderful—the gnocchi is so crispy! And for dessert we had the orange cake, which is packed with citrus flavor. Atmosphere is relaxed and friendly.“

“Amazing and authentic Greek food. Absolutely the BEST!! A definite repeat again and again. Ask for momma’s specials, it varies by week, his mom makes delicacies.“

“Fresh and delicious! I came here based on the Yelp reviews and it did not disappoint. If you're looking for a quick, no-hassle but relatively healthy meal in the city (and you'd like to sit down while eating it) this place is great!“

“I went last weekend with my mom. Between us, we had the grilled pita with hummus and tzatziki, fried calamari, moussaka, and a kebab gyro.Their calamari are huge. I thought maybe as a result they would be rubbery but they were great.What stood out was the service. At one point, the waiter comes over to fill out glasses back up with water (which he did diligently throughout our meal) and my mom had literally had one sip and he still went out of his way to refill her glass.The atmosphere was real nice. We will be back.“

“Had a gathering today w approx 30 family and friends, the food from start to finish was beyond SUPERB, they truly deserve Zagat rating. The fried calamari was better than Greece stated by my sister in law who was there in September, antipasto, appetizers, fish, chicken kabob on skewers were tremendous we couldn't get enough we were licking our fingers. I personally would rate them at 10, the owner Jenny is a gem. Will be back to try their grilled Octopus.Parking: Private parking lot in back of building, not a long walk if you know how to park at least 20 cars.“

“9 Jones Restaurant had a very mysterious and high-class mystique with a 10/10 atmosphere. The food was find overall a little bland for our taste, but the item that stole the show was the grilled octopus. The service was good but very slow. Our reservation started around 6PM and we didn’t get out main courses til 8:15PM. Did have a surprised burlesque show which was so fun!!“

“No frills spot with excellent, efficient service and fresh deliciously grilled seafood. It's great value. Highly recommend for seafood lovers and chill people who are not in a rush (there's a wait if you go during peak hours, take it easy here). It's BYOB.“

“The most delicious Greek food! From the hummus to the baklava, it was probably the best food we’ve had outside of Greece itself!!!“

“I was looking for a shawarma nearby, Google showed this place with a good rating. It turned out to be 12 for the chicken shawarma. The taste is about 4 points. I ate much tastier, but it's okay, it'll go when I'm hungry ?Parking: Paid Parking lot“

“Phenomenal meal! We were lucky enough to sit in Alicia section and basically just followed her suggestions. The tzatziki, octopus, duck, and baklava were all . We were able to get in and out to catch our train without compromising on a great NYC culinary experience. Looking forward to coming back!“

“It’s casual but polished casual.$5.25/ Freddo Cappuccino. It was very good. This was the item I was most impressed with at Pi Bakerie, over and above the pastries and baked dishes. If I come back to Pi Bakerie it will be specifically for the Freddo Cappuccino. I could envision myself deliberately making a detour via SoHo for this Freddo Cappuccino. Which is pretty cool that means they have a “destination item” on their menu.I’d be curious to compare with Café Lyria who also make reportedly excellent Greek Freddo Cappuccino (this is like the Italian Schakerato).Also curious to try their Peinirli (“cheese boat”). Looked delicious.“

“My oh my, what a delicious meal. I have never had better flatbread in my life. The small salad with gyro was more than enough for a meal. And my favorite dessert- Galaktoboureko!!! I’m so happy I had dinner here.“

“A great local Greek spot! It’s tiny so I would highly advise making a reservation. All their dishes are great, and the service is always welcoming and warm even when they are super busy! Also- they now have a wine list at great prices, or a corkage fee of $15.“

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

“Milos is a very good restaurant but a meal is distracted by the high noise level and very high prices especially for whole fish entrees. But the restaurant was fully crowded so my comments may be singular. PS, oysters and live scallops were best we've had.“

“All of these old school Gyro shops are closing their doors. Proper Greek gyro on the pit, very fresh, delicious, quick and for a fair price. Worth the trip down from Mahwah now and again. The staff is very friendly and the place is small and very clean.“

“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 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!“

“We had the pleasure of dining at Eleni's Saturday night and it was a wonderful evening. The hostess Sren started the evening on a high note because of her warmth and friendliness. Unfortunately, my reservation had been lost when I did it on Google, but she could not have been more accommodating. She gave us a table that we could spend two hours at without being rushed. The grilled calamari, octopus, and appetizer of dips were all exceptional, as was the waitress we had. Both the waitress and Sren made a point of coming over during the meal to ensure that we were pleased with everything. The ambiance is lovely and is very inviting. I can't wait to return to this restaurant that truly values and appreciates it customers and makes you feel like an honored guest. Thank you to Sren and our waitress for a fabulous night out.“

“Very authentic Greek restaurant. The atmosphere of this restaurant felt like I was in one of my relatives home. Super friendly and accommodating staff. Food was great, everything was cook to perfection. The Pork souvlaki was amazing, the portion is big enough for two people. Lamb chops were perfect, super tasty. Price is on the pricier end but with the service and taste it is worth it. Highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Amazing Turkish restaurant. BYOB. They treat you like family here. The hummus and ezme were amazing mezze options. The branzino was was charred perfectly, retaining the perfect flakiness and moistness of the fish fillet. Cap it off with baklava and Turkish coffee. They won’t rush you here. Life slows down at this restaurant so you can enjoy it.Parking: Cheap municipal parking. $.50 per hour“

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

“This restaurant is a MUST!!! Forget Taverna Kyclades. This Greek restaurant has an amazing menu. The food has been consistently delicious. The service has seriously been the best of any restaurant I’ve gone to. You feel like family after just one visit. ❤️“

“I have been a fan of Souvlaki GR for many years . Prices are reasonable and food is excellent. Our favs over the years have been lamb chops, lemon potatoes , meatballs , Greek salad , and of course pita wraps. Today, after our meal, on the way out, I asked them to get me baklava as take out . I got home and I am stunned to see how small the portion is for $12 bucks . I know inflation is hurting everyone but I think this is such a shame . Very disappointed . Nyc restaurants are increasingly becoming obnoxious . Please be better .“

“Beautiful restaurant. Portions small and highly overpriced but absolutely delicious! Service was most attentive too. After dining there, I stopped for a snack to have in my hotel room.“

“I like this place. They have authentic Greek pastries, warm hospitality. Nice place to sit and meet someone. Though lately the music is bumping like it's a club and it's not the relaxing vibe I'm looking for on a weekday afternoon and it keeps me from lingering any longer, it just makes me anxious whereas I think it used to be more chill here. Not what I want from a coffee shop and I couldn't get past it even with headphones on. Sundays they have live music, it feels like a family party vibe with champagne going. Try the cookies in the kiosk across, so good.“

“The service, ambiance and food were amazing!“

“Nestled on 5th Avenue in Park Slope, this authentic Greek restaurant truly delivered. The menu was ample and had such a wide variety of delicious dishes to choose from. We were seated in their outdoor back terrace/garden. It was really nice! The Greek music in the background was pleasant and a really nice touch. Food was excellent.“
