Again, a letdown, unfortunately. Visited on a Saturday evening after several years with hopes that food quality may have improved. Ambience is still good, with live music and all. Dolmathes were ok and vegetable salads were fresh. Otherwise, - very limited selection of (overpriced) cocktails. - tabbouleh salad had hardly any parsley and all bulgur. - almost all cooked food was cold, dry and did not appear or taste fresh - including gyro meat, falafel , kofta, steak, spanakopita - it seemed that everything had been warmed and re-warmed. - baklava was frozen cold and dry. - servers are obviously overworked so I won't hold it against them if ours didn't even have time to come back to refill waters unless called. - 20% gratuity was automatically added ( for party of 6, and I am fine with that) but neither was it mentioned on the menu nor did the service or food live upto it. - the server asked if we were there for an occasion ( which was a graduation) and we told him but he promptly forgot about it and there was no complementary gesture on his part. - I recently had meals at Pasha in SanAntonio where the whole Mediterranean hospitality, experience and food are on another level (and cheaper) . - perhaps the owner of Acropolis should visit Pasha to get some pointers instead of just customarily going from table to table asking if all was good. read more

I've had Greek food in Greece and this was a close second. I normally don't leave reviews but this place was so good, the service was amazing the people were very nice. We were seated extremely quickly and the food was absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend this spot and everything on the menu! read more

Staph food poisoning contracted from gyro takeout - 3/4 people who ordered lunch today are now extremely ill. It was all room temperature on arrival so it must've been mishandled. read more

Great atmosphere and even better food! I ordered the gyro and it was delicious--fresh and flavorful. The service was quick, and the price wasn't bad at all. Definitely a spot I'd visit again! Ideal for lunch read more

We've been coming here for a while. Our past visit will be the last. My wife has stage 4 cancer while also being allergic to a few things. She was getting the couscous with no almonds due to allergy. The last few orders they were also leaving out the feta and raisins. So, she put on the order to please add the feta and raisins. When I went in to pick our order up, I asked if I could check the couscous. The lady who claimed to be the manager said, "I made sure it was made correct since it's such a big deal". I guess because my wife is allergic to almonds, it's a "big deal" to make sure the order is correct. After leaving I called and asked to speak with the owner but was told he wasn't there. Although when I was leaving I seen him out front. She was very unprofessional and rude. The service up front is rather horrible. I've been inside and waited thirty minutes before being helped. The order is never on time but never complained until now. read more

Waited over an hour to pick up my food, which was literally just a gyro wrap. The waitress asked the owner if he could provide me with a gift card for the inconvenience and I was given nothing. Owner even handed me my food and said sorry and offered me a bag for it. Be so for real right now I want my money back. just got home and entire order was wrong. order gyro wrap, greek salad and hummus. was given the wrap and potatoes, that's it. My boyfriend ordered a wrap and was given just meat. read more

I haven't been back since 2021 and decided today to try them out again. I'm so glad I did! As soon as we walked in we were greeted right away and sat down. Our waitress (Heather) was amazing! She talked to us, was very informative of the menu and took our order right away. She didn't forget about us! We ordered 2 wines, Lucido and Kandi red wines. Both were house wines. One was bold and one was sweet. Both were amazing! The bold red house wine was extremely good. Wasn't dry, had a great aroma and silk flavor. Went down smooth. The sweet wine was served cold and was sparkling; really great! I'd get it again! We ordered the Mezza plate sampler again and it didn't disappoint. Definitely recommend with a glass of wine. My husband had the eggplant rollatini and it came out hot! Perfect portion size, and cheesy. I wanted to trade him dishes but he kindly refused. Sauce was portioned good, not over saucy or bitter. I definitely will order it next time. I had the Garides Ouza Pasta. It had a creamy sweet flavor. It had about 5 jumbo shrimp, perfect amount of cheese and good amount of pasta. It came out hot! The Naan bread was perfect to have to dip into the sauce. Only thing I'd would have liked in the dish is some type of veggie outside of tomato. The other thing that was questionable was the the menu stated "flamed table-side with brandy". I thought they'd do the flame at the table but didn't. I didn't ask because overall the food was delicious. Maybe next time I will ask. Overall, our experience was way better from the first time (customer service wise) but the food did not disappoint. We will return to try another dish! Thanks for the great experience! read more

Went here last night for dinner during a business trip. What a nice surprise. Simply outstanding Greek food and wonderful service. I got the Greek Combination meal and added a side salad. Every item was fresh and extremely flavorful. The service was attentive and timely. Prices were a little higher than what I would expect for the location but the food quality justified it. read more

Had an incredible meal here tonight! Fresh, homemade authentic Mediterranean cuisine from an unbelievably friendly staff - appetizer plate had delicious grilled veggies and flaky buttery feta and spinach pies; entree of couscous salad with raisins and almonds and lemon mint dressing and succulent grilled chicken. So impressed to find such good food in an strip mall on Hwy 190 - unassuming outside but inside the is peaceful has a simple and clean decor with great hospitality. I will100% be back here when I'm passing through! read more

I love this place Food is delicious I would eat here weekly My sis and kids love it too Must try it out read more

My Husband went there for take out for my Birthday. We were at the restaurant several times before and the food was good. But when I unpacked our gyro plate at home, my appetite faded away. The pita bred was like tasteless pale frisbees, the eggplant was a bowl of oil with some tiny pieces of eggplant and the meat was dry and grey. Tzatziki with a mini serving like a tablespoon. Very disappointing! The night after this stuff we both did not feel well. They will not see us again. read more

This place is such a gem! The customer service was great! Our server was sweet and very friendly! She was knowledgeable about items on the menu as well as made great recommendations! We both had Chicken Souvlaki !!! I had sides of eggplant and roasted cauliflowerMy husband had lentil soup and salad! Our chicken was cooked perfected on the grill! Leaving that grill taste but also very moist and not chewy at all! All the sides were soooo good! This wasn't our first out last time here! Perfect spot for a nice well balanced lunch date! read more

Wow...we lived here from 2013-2018 and this restaurant was okay...but nothing to write home about. We went again tonight on a whim after being gone for two years and WOW. I cannot rave about this restaurant and the new owner, Sam. The food is incredible: fresh, tasty and made to order. The service is excellent. My husband's mussels evidently were not up to par so the owner comped the appetizer. I found I was stuffed after dinner, and commented that I wished I had room for baklava so our waitress Heather sent us home with two complementary desserts for later. We had a wonderful conversation with Sam, and overall it was just a superb dining experience. Also of note: the owner's wine, Lucido Tempranillo is a smooth, dry, wine with hints of cherry that I absolutely recommend. We each had the gyro wraps and they were amazing - and very much like what you would get at any Greek restaurant in Athens!!! read more

I decided to celebrate my birthday with my family at this location because I loved the food and the atmosphere. Unfortunately, a far from pleasant experience is what I had. Prior to us going, my husband called and asked if they were able to take a party of ten. The person on the phone confirmed we could be accommodated. Upon me entering the establishment, I noticed that our party was separated. Not like the next table over, but so much so, it was two completely separate dining experiences. When the party left from the table next to ours, my husband went to our server (who took about 20 minutes to bring us water, while the table that she sat while we waited to place our order was greeted with hugs and they promptly got their drinks), to ask if the rest of the family could be seated closer. The owner ran over to my husband to intercept the request and said the rest of our family couldn't sit at that table and then he said very loudly and very rudely, that he was trying to be nice. And walked off. I had seen and heard enough. I told my family that I no longer wanted to spend our hard earned money in an establishment where the owner feels like it is ok to rude. We left without eating and I don't plan on returning. My husband acted on information that was told to him by someone that worked there, but when we get there we are treated like the information was fabricated. He turned my birthday dining experience into a nightmare. We were there for an hour and only got water and had just gotten appetizers during that time. I cannot nor will not support rudeness. read more

Incredible! one of the best restaurants i've been to in a very long time! My meal was very well prepared and spot mimicking my experience in Greece! Our server was very attentive without being over bearing. And wow, could he sing! there was a birthday while we were there when he sang an a cappella Happy Birthday that gave us goosebumps! The restaurant was well appointed and nicely decorated. The whole place was spotless and well lit. Their wine list is impressive and the menu can meet the pickiest if eaters needs! We were happy to have been a visited by the owner/manager and he ensured our experience was top notch! A+ read more

Started out with the four dips, which consisted of hummus, roasted pepper hummus, feta dip and tzatziki sauce served with fresh pita bread. Very good, my favorite was the roasted pepper hummus. For my main meal, I ordered the Gyro plate. Mine came with a blend of lamb and beef, served with tzatziki sauce, a Greek salad and roasted potatoes. The meal was delicious. The atmosphere was very nice and the service was good but a little slow. I would definitely go back. read more

Great Service and the food is delicious! Nice place for date night. Try the butter chicken and tender lamb! All the food is great!

I have been stationed here for 3 years and I have been to many other Greek restaurants but this is the first time, my gyro has never had feta sauce on the wrap. Maybe this restaurant just does tings differently. The lamb was very good in taste wise. The potatoes were decent. The pink/orange sauce was questionable and had no real taste aside from it tasting like roasted red peppers. I then called to ask why wasn't the feta and tzatziki sauce in the bag and it was stated that the red mystery sauce was both sauces put together huh? ...Sigh! I really wanted to like this place.‍ & I know they sell feta and tzatziki sauce because it's on their menu so obviously the waiter was lying! -.- read more

Hands down the best gyro I have ever eaten in my life. I've ordered from this place countless times and the food quality remained exceptional!! Must order the potatoes on the side- they are mouthwatering. read more

This restaurant is an amazing find in Harker Heights. This was my second visit and it was better than the first one. Food : We were a group of 4 who visited for a quick working lunch. The appetizer platter was great. We ordered different entrees and I tried the Moussakka. It was very well prepared and came with a soup and salad. The lemon egg soup was not my favorite. I tried to be adventurous but should have stuck to the lentil soup. Do try the rice pudding for dessert. It is sweetened to perfection and will make you want more. Drinks : They do have a bar with some wine and beer options only. We did not order any alcoholic beverages. Service : Our waitress was pleasant and very efficient. She ensured that all her tables were well attended to. Ambience : Located in a strip mall in Harker Heights, the restaurant offers a casual ambience with some Greek music playing in the background. Plenty of parking available. Pricing : Moderate. Will I return? : Absolutely! read more

The best rack of lambs in the area! 10/10! I've had all the side dishes and they are great as well!

We order from Acropolis every few weeks. The gyro platter is my favorite. I love their dolmades, lemon soup, and the Greek salad is great. The family likes getting the different types of humus with pita. Love it. read more

The food was amazing, I had the Mediterranean Wrap with gyro meat and potatoes as the side. The portions were huge, and the food was amazing! The meat is well seasoned, and the veggies we cooked al dente, which I appreciated. The ambiance is nice it has dim lighting and a rustic feel, great for a date night! Would definitely go back, and highly recommend the gyro wraps. read more

YELP 100 CHALLENGE 2018 - PART 2: 55/100 Honestly, though, we were supposed to eat next door. We only ended up here because next door was closed for the day due to some kinda "system failure." Big Bro told us not to fret since this place also had a lot of good foodies to offer. (Funny enough, I had it bookmarked way before I even flew into the state!) The very first thing I try at a Greek restaurant is their gyro wrap. That is my one make-it-or-break-it deciding factor for any (or no) future visits. Our party of five got seated immediately since we came through way before the lunch hour rush. I had no trouble finding the gyro in the menu, so that's what I went for. There was a good amount of meat and portioned well with the veggies and tzatziki sauce. They were held well by a not-too-thick warm and fluffy pita. Everything just came together oh, so, well with each bite. I was impressed. Service was above par. I can't remember her name, but our server was involved and funny. We liked her immediately. The restaurant was at near capacity within the hour. I'm not sure if that's because the place next door was closed or if they were just that popular. Regardless, there's going to be a repeat visit. read more

Service was okay. Took 45 minutes to just get our food. Watched several tables and came in after us get their food and leave before we even got ours. Our server never once came to our table and apologized nor said anything about why we had not gotten our meal. The food was definitely not worth the wait or the money. Definitely do not recommend, nor will we return. read more

I LOVE Greek food, but unfortunately, my hubby does not. So, I only get to go here when my friends are up to it. I've had their Greek sampler plate, their traditional wrap (with gyro meat), and their hummus sampler (trio). LOVE all of it! The wrap is my go-to order -- fresh, fully stuffed, and the Tzatziki sauce is perfect! I order extra sauce for my potatoes. The sampler plate is a great order if you've never had Greek before or if you just want a little taste of everything -- I don't care for the dolmanthes in the sampler, but that could just be my own personal tastebuds. The hummus trio is a must order. Each flavor is unique, but all tasty. Order extra olives read more

It was my first visit to the Acropolis in almost 5 years, and I must tell that we had a great experience! You can come for a business lunch, casual, or even a lovely romantic night out because the environment is casual/elegant. The meal was excellent; my personal favorite was the lentil soup. They have a large selection of wines. The owner came over to check on us and see if we liked the dinner. He was quite polite!
