Located right next to the lake in Luzerne, with wonderful views of the city and water. The squash blossoms and spanokopita were delicious, the veggie moussaka was fine. Authentic food with great ambiance. read more

We had walked by this restaurant a few times and the seats were always full - we knew we had to try it and we are glad we did! With a reservation, we were seated promptly, and our orders were taken in a timely manner. It was fun looking around the restaurant - loved all of the hanging plants! The employees were VERY hard working and organized. We ordered the dip garden, Ammos Salata, and Garides Saganaki - everything was AMAZING! Timing of the food delivery was great as well. Overall experience was 10/10! read more

In Lucern for the night. Made the right choice when I chose Ammos. Greeting at the door was warm and friendly. My waitress picked out the perfect wine to go with gyros which were delicious. Service was impeccable. A lively restaurant was nice since I was on my own. I recommend Ammos. Feels comfortable in a group or dining alone. read more

We stumbled upon this Greek spot when visiting in Luzern. It's super casual and the host makes you feel like family the moment you walk in. They seated the 5 of us at a communal table. We started with Chorta greens and a Chortika salad (their version of a classic Greek salad). I had the poulet obelisk which was minced chicken on a skewer. They serve it with thinly sliced fried potatoes. Yum. The Moussaka and the Souvlaki though were definitely the highlights. Just like out of your grandmothers kitchen. Enormous portions. And oh the baklava dessert... don't skip this. It is almost all filling with very little phyllo dough. Not cloyingly sweet and just wonderful. read more

Sat down looking for a casual afternoon snack by the water. It was a beautiful spot. The food was almost as gorgeous as the view. Pita bread was like the best we've ever had- so flavorful and warm- and we ordered more! Soft drinks were delicious. Dips were lovely and tasty as well. 10/10 would recommend! read more

The food was spectacular but the service disappointing. The men serving were a bit pushy even to bring the check and point out that "we can leave a tip". That's a tourist scam. Don't tip in Switzerland unless you love the service and feel like it. read more

Great Greek food and excellent service. We were looking for a tapas type restaurant and were lucky to find this one. We had the Dip Garden appetizer which was a combo plate of appetizers each of which was delicious. I had the Kolokithokeftèdes, which was zucchini patties with a yogurt mint dip. It was truly delicious. My husband had the Poulet-Obelisk which was a seasoned chicken skewer that came with homemade chips and pita filled with a slightly spicy feta sauce. It was truly scrumptious. The recommended Rose wine was also tasty. We highly recommend this place for lunch or dinner. read more

Really good food and service! Only thing I wasn't expecting for an "authentic Greek" restaurant is they didn't have any falafels. But regardless, everything was delicious! read more

Ahh - loved everything about this restaurant so much! From the moment we walked in to the end - such a great experience. We opted to sit outside by the water because it was SO beautiful! Our server was the best - he was very kind and provided us with quality service. He gave great recommendations especially when it came to my choice in wine. I don't remember exactly what I ordered, but it was fantastic and paired well with the food. We ordered a bunch of appetizers and ate tapas style. Of my entire experience visiting Switzerland, this stop was the MOST memorable. read more

Food was amazing but it is overpriced and the waiters forced us to stay a longer time than we wanted. It kind of felt like the waiter was taking advantage of us Americans by making us stay there when we asked for the check. Anyway, the chicken skewer and all of their food is amazing. Best Greek food in Lucerne for sure. read more

The stuffed zucchini flowers and hummus were delicious! Also, excellent service. Location is on the water as well.

View is 5 stars. Service was good. Food was 4 stars, maybe 3 but overall too beautiful to pass up.

One of the best Greek restaurants I have dined at. Every item we ordered was full of flavor and a the portion sizes were right for the price. You must order the lamb in the bag! The meat was extremely tender and seasoned so nicely. My kids loved the Mousakàs. Everything is made fresh. The wine list has great variety. The staff was pleasant and very accommodating. I will definitely dine here again and will recommend it to everyone I know. *dined during COVID19 pandemic. Staff did a fantastic job maintaining sanitation regulations. Dividers were placed between tables. Sanitizer was available in several locations. read more

Fantastic food and really engaging server(s). Our party of 6 all immensely enjoyed our dinner. I had the saffron risotto (perfectly aldente) w/ shellfish, cod & whitefish. Paired it with a 2020 Prunetta Barbara D'Alba Italian wine which was quite good. Be sure to split an order of baclava w/ coconut ice cream and ask your server to cut it. Bueno! read more

I came here for dinner with my family and the food, location and service was phenomenal. I had the best moussaka here while sitting right next to a beautiful river with a beautiful background. The hummus from the dip platter was to die for. If you find yourself in Luzern this restaurant is a must go!! read more

We were walking around Luzern and were getting hungry, we came up in this place by accident and looked at the Yelp reviews. We are so glad we went in. This is an authentic Greek restaurant and the food was very good. The servers were very friendly and quickly sat us even when we did not have a reservation. The restaurant is nicely decorated with a very nice Greek vibe. read more

I really like it when Greek food is done properly, including Greek hospitality but Ammos feels like a tourist trap. My friend and I ordered several mezze's and were told we weren't allowed to order that many as they would not be able to put them on the table -or so they said. In the end all the mezze did fit on our table and we finished most of the dishes we ordered. But honestly, I've never been to a restaurant where I had to argue with the waiter to order more food? The food was mediocre, better than the fast food style Greek you can get at some places but a bit hit and miss: the meatballs were dry and lacked flavor, on the other hand, the octopus was cooked correctly and was very tasty. But the lack of service makes me doubt if I want to go again? read more

Service was phenomenal and sitting by the river by candlelight was very romantic.

The tzatziki was absolutely delicious - probably the best I've ever had! The chicken (pictured) was very flavorful. So glad we stumbled upon this hidden gem! read more

Ammos, more like Amazing. We got into Lucerne early evening on Saturday and wandered around the city center area crossing Chapel Bridge and were going to stop at another restaurant along the way but they were full and as we rounded the corner, saw Ammos and decided to give it a try. It was a lovely place with riverside seating (they even provide little blankets for when it gets cold out so you can still enjoy the lovely evening by the water). The owner and his wife are phenomenal and the cooking is fantastic. We ordered the Salvakias and the Moussaka (the menu is also in English) and the owner gave descriptions and recommendations as well. The pita and tzatziki were delicious. Soft and warm pita bread and homemade sauce. The chicken skewers were bursting with flavor and the Moussaka was fantastic covered in cheese. Great family restaurant and open late right along the water. A must try for authentic Greek food. read more

We had grown a bit tired of cream or cheese sauces that are the staple of Swiss meals. We decided to try a Greek dinner. Yelp only showed one recommended Greek restaurant in the in the downtown, called Ammos. The restaurant is a few minutes' walk from the city center and is located on the river. We arrived at 7.30pm with no reservation. The restaurant was crowded but after a 5 minute wait we were able to get an outdoor table. Service is prompt and fun with the waiters joking a lot with the guests. Language is not an issue as each of the staff speaks 3-5 languages. We ordered a humus starter which was quite different from the US but both the pita bread and the humus we quite good. For main courses we had the Mousakas and Souvlakia chicken kabob. Both meals were generous portions. The flavors we very good. We did not stay for desert as we were over-full but they looked nice when delivered to the other tables. It is a crowded place so if you don't want to wait reservations are recommended. read more

Wish I could give this place 5* because the food was amazing. Unfortunately they dropped a water pitcher on my head, which hurts the day after, and this also soaked my pants for a few hours. Then, I still was charged for the tap water and they offered some extra dessert shots to compensate for the bundle. At the very least, compensation for part of the meal seemed more than justified rather than giving us drinks we didn't really want but were low cos. Again, food quality was 5*, but I didn't leave smiling. read more

It looks a realy nice place. I will try it. And wen i do it i will give the review of it. Stay tune :)

The service here is pretty terrible. Other things to note: they charge for tap water $12 for 1 liter. We knew exactly what we wanted when we entered yet the waitress had us wait for 15 minutes to take the order. Had to ask for the check 3 times. Then they were pushy about leaving a tip. Overall, I would suggest going elsewhere there just too many options in the areas. Will never return here. read more

All I can say is "wow". This has to be the BEST Greek food my wife and I have eaten, and crazily enough we found it in Switzerland! The Greek burger and the chicken skewers were absolutely delicious. The spicy feta and the taziki were homemade perfection. The pita was fluffy and warm with a grilled buttery taste. The Greek lamb burger literally fell apart as you ate it, melt in your mouth. Oh and I can't forget the house bread that they start everyone off with, warm, tasty, drizzle some oil and balsamic on it too! The place is decorated very well, warm and inviting and the husband and wife duo really know what they are doing. The husband runs the front of the house and the wife cooks in the kitchen, perfect pairing. When you leave you get a complimentary almond cookie that leaves you wanting more, what else could you expect? I highly recommend checking this wonderful restaurant out. My wife and I will be dreaming about this place every time we eat Greek food back in the States. Much love, the Davises read more
