Raisin pastry, everything pastry, honey scones
Brooke H.

Cute place. Gets pretty busy but they have a good number system for tables. Staff is always nice. I got a surprise bag because I've had their food and always enjoy it.

Oh, how I love thee, Anthos! Let me count the ways! Birthday brunch and a surprise visit to Anthos.....and what a wonderful surprise it was! This is a bit out of the way for us City dwellers, but it was absolutely worth the trip. From the moment we walked in, the lively atmosphere and energy of the place grabbed us. Such a great vibe, with the owners doing their thing and the staff bustling around making everything happen. We started with the trio of dips: hummus, feta, and tzatziki, served with olives and their delicious pita. Then came the spanakopita, which is definitely shareable, especially with a little salad on the side. And because every good brunch needs something sweet, we ordered the loukoumades. Savory + sweet = the perfect combination! Everything was just good!.......fresh, flavorful, satisfying, and exactly what you want when you're out celebrating. And of course, we couldn't leave empty-handed. We took home a loaf of raisin sourdough, which may have been the best decision of the day. A lively spot, wonderful food, great owners, and a staff that clearly keeps things moving. Anthos, I'm already looking forward to the next visit!

Greek island bowl
Jill H.

Since I wrote that original review I have been back to Anthos so many times. We're generally there once or twice a week. My go-to items are the horiatiki, the spicy feta danish, kolouri as a dipper-into-literally-anything, dakos, Greek island bowl, their cold brew, a Greek mountain tea. But really I stopped back on Yelp to say, "don't sleep on the specials!" I had a bowl of briam this week that was amazing. Their bouyourdi, youvetsi, and Greek chicken and potatoes are all so good too. I've never had anything at Anthos that was less than perfect and soul-satisfying. The people who own this place and the folks who work for them are the nicest, friendliest around. They make you feel well taken care of and appreciated as a customer. I am so happy and appreciative to have Anthos nearby.

Raspberry almond danish
Marla C.

I wish I got multiple of the raspberry danishes, it was so good! The breakfast sandwich is now added to my list of fave breakfast sandwich's! The bacon was crispy the eggs were fluffy and flavorful! It was busy there so be ready to wait, but it is worth the wait!!

Pumpkin Freddo Cappuccino with caramel
Caitlin M.

It has a great atmosphere, the service was kind and quick. The pastries were flavorful and delicious. I ordered the fig danish and a pumpkin ice cap. All very good. The pumpkin ice cap was so good I ended up getting a second. The fig danish was so good. I do wish they had the signs out right way with the pastry because I did also order an apricot danish that I thought had coffee crumbles on top but it was hazelnut. I am allergic to most tree nuts and when I bit into it I panicked thinking it was walnuts which I am allergic to. I stopped eating it and gave it to my friend to eat to play safe, when I went to order my second cappuccino they had put the signs out stating it was hazelnut nuts..... I know I could have asked but I get in a hurry and forgot to ask sometimes especially when I'm in new places. That is why I am not giving a low review. Because it was also my fault for not asking. I would go back but next time ask more questions if the signs are not out.

What a lovely cafe and bakery to stop by! Delicious Greek flavors and options, with a staff that's super friendly and a high energy space. It gets rlly crowded and popular here for good reason, so def stick it out and tables move fast, worth the wait! The bread here is just incredible, but the food options are amazing across the board. The roasted eggplant sandwich was the best I ever had, and the hummus was absolutely perfect. The Fredo Cappuccino is a must try, a creamy milk on top that needs to be mixed in, it's got a nice unique texture. Overall it's chaotic and so worth it, one of my favorite cafes around!

Tsoureki French Toast
Sarah K.

Anthos is an authentic Greek Bakery & Cafe with everything you could possibly want. I went to Greece on my honeymoon, and this instantly transported me there! They have bakery shelves full of baked goods, desserts, and breads to try! To order, you stand at the counter to place your order and then take a seat for them to deliver your order to you! When my group arrived, there was a long line and many of the tables were taken. My group tried the dip sampler and everything was absolutely delicious. I had the Tsoureki French Toast that was so light yet decadent and complex with flavors. I also got the Loukoumades, Greek donuts. I wish I tried these in Greece and didn't get a chance. They were soft yet crispy. One member of the group got the quiche, which was thick and PACKED with flavor. Absolutely delicious. Another friend got a Croque Madame, which wasn't super special. Overall, this place was absolutely delicious and I cannot wait to try many more of their dishes!

Pumpkin Spice Freddo Cappuccino
Hannah G.

Anthos is so worth the 30 min drive from the city! I went late morning on a Saturday and it was busy, but we didn't have a problem getting a table. We sat on the back patio which was lovely and quiet. The food came out pretty fast considering how busy it was! The coffee took the longest because the espresso machine had broken down after we ordered, but they fixed it; it was worth the wait! I got the breakfast sandwich with bacon and avocado and my mind was blown. The brioche bun was so buttery and fresh. I ate it so fast. My friend got the avocado toast and loved it, she said the sourdough was great! We both got pumpkin spice Freddo cappuccinos and loved them; not too sweet, perfectly balanced syrup to coffee ratio! We also got some pastries to go: almond croissant, ginger molasses cookie, chocolate chip walnut cookie, baklava. All were so delicious! Definitely one of the best almond croissants in the Pittsburgh region! All the staff were so nice, and handled the busyness with grace!

Just a good hang for friends and brunch
Gretchen U.

I have had the best experience getting off the willow station train and walking over for a nice early dinner. Food was exceptional, Spanakopita with a side salad. Service was great, knowing to walk over to the counter (helpful reminder, before getting a seat.) ambient peaceful ambiance, enjoyable and pleasant to request a macha latte as a drink on this chilly evening.

Jennifer Á.

Desserts were pretty good but not out of this world. Food otherwise was the same. I'm not sure if it was because of so much hype that I was a bit disappointed. I do want to give it another try because of all the good reviews. FYI: place is pretty small and you order before you sit so who knows if there will be a table by the time you order.

Restaurant
Amy S.

Everything was delicious and the salads were fresh! The restaurant is clean and pleasant and the staff is very friendly. Nice background music that is not loud!!

Michele C.

We always love going to Anthos. Great service. Very authentic Greek food. Always lovely!

Loved Anthos! Tried it for breakfast over the weekend and it did not disappoint. Brought my almost 2 year old son with me and they had high chairs available as well. I got the avocado toast and added eggs and ordered him the kids scrambled eggs and added cheese. Absolutely delicious! He devoured all of it and wanted more. All of their breads and pastries look to die for, I have a nut allergy so I couldn't indulge. The staff was awesome about my allergy and notified the kitchen. Will be back next time to sip on some coffee too!

4.5 stars. Alihan's Mediterranean Cuisine opened in 2013 and serves Turkish cuisine for lunch,…read moredinner, and special events. The menu lists many meat, seafood, and vegetarian options, and the chefs can accommodate customers on gluten-free and vegan diets. Examples of menu items are lentil soup, babaghanoush, falafel, shepherd salad, lamb chops, many kebabs, sea bass, sautés, house-made desserts such as baklava, and non-alcoholic beverages. My husband and I ate one lunch here. Indoor and covered outdoor seating was available. The employees promptly greeted and seated us, and I appreciated that they recommended specific menu items to help me choose. After a reasonable wait, the foods were brought to our table. Here are my ratings for what we ordered: Grilled Shrimp - 5 stars - Several large, juicy shrimp were on skewers and had been perfectly cooked. Sides were mixed vegetables and a mix of rice and bulgur. Chicken Shish Kebab - 4 stars - The chunks of chicken were large and juicy and had a mild seasoning. On the side was rice pilav. Turkish Tea - 4.5 stars - This black tea was a good size and was served hot. Packets of sweeteners were available. The total price was $55 plus tax and tip.

I came in solo for dinner on a weeknight. No wait, as they weren't very busy. The menu is filled…read morewith many options, including kabobs and since I typically liked the ground beef/chicken kabobs that are intensely seasoned, like a Seekh Kabob, I chose their Adana Kabob with half rice and half bulgar as a side. I started with a half order of their Greek salad. The salad came out looking pretty good and even though it was very lightly dressed, it tasted vibrant and bright from the cheese and olives on it. I wanted to get some more dressing, but the server didn't come back to ask how things were and she just kept walking by, not even looking for me to wave down. Overall, the salad was decent, but it did need a little more dressing. The kabob came up next and it looked ok. The kabob itself was more on the bland side... I didn't taste herbs and spices at all, more like just grilled meat. The bulgar was excellent and offered lots of flavor, so I tried to eat some with each fork of kabob I bit into. This dish came with a pretty large salad too, which was slightly depressing looking, with some wilted lettuce in it. I also tried their Turkish Tea to start and really liked that. Overall, the service was friendly, just not attentive at all. The venue looks welcoming and warm. Menu has many great options, I feel like I just tried the wrong thing.

Am looking forward to being back! My server was Tolia (sorry if I'm misspelling/misremembering) and she did an AMAZING job. She was super friendly, made awesome menu recommendations and was a delight to chat to. She recommended I start with the char grilled octopus and this was delicious. It came with capers and a grilled lemon and olive oil and was beautifully presented. The potion was easily finished by just me, so if you have more than 2 people I'd recommend getting more than 1 order of these. It's so delicious. I was then picking between the pastitsio and the moussaka. I was told they both have a strong nutmeg flavor which was not a problem for me. I decided on the moussaka and it was so delicious. It did have a strong nutmeg flavor but not in an overwhelming way. It came with a bechamel sauce on top and layers of eggplant with ground beef tomato and potato. It sort of reminded me of a shepherds pie if you're not as familiar with Greek food. The portion was HUGE - could easily split between 2. I ate almost half of it but couldn't eat the rest although I wish I could've. It was so good. The cocktail I ordered was a nectar spritz (something with "nectar" in the title at least) and genuinely was one of the best cocktails I've had. Definitely beat every other one I had in Pittsburgh this week by FAR. So yummy. I was so impressed with every aspect of my dining experience and would definitely be back!

I am from Detroit where Mediterranean food means accessible, quick shwarma and hummus- easy peasy. I walked in and asked for 2 chicken shwarmas to go. The hostess looked at me like I had two heads. I asked for a menu, looked at it and then asked "This is a Mediterranean place, right?" After explaining what I wanted she recommended the meatball sandwich. Meatball sandwich? As my husband approached I explained the options and he asked "This is a Mediterranean place, right?" After debating to leave or not, we agree to wait 15-20 minutes for a chicken pita handheld, described in the pic. We receive our order and it's two flatbreads (see pic). We inquire and the hostess emphatically says we ordered the flatbread. (My husband detests olives so I can assure you he didn't order the olive laden flatbread prepared for us. ). She full on argued with us. We don't eat white bread and cheese for any meal so we 100% did not order this. I can't say the flatbread with no chicken at all but loaded with olives tasted bad (well, my husband would) but the sheer lack of accountability for full on screwing up our order is unacceptable. One more question, in Pennsylvania is "Gyro"pronounced (GI-Roh)? So, maybe in Pennsylvania meatballs sandwiches, crab cakes and sausage sandwiches are Mediterranean, if perhaps that is not what you are looking for, keep looking.

By that I mean the food quality and service are still incredible. Spanakopita and tabouleh are to die for. Greek country salad--yes! Chicken kebab, heck yeah. Pittsburgh is lucky to have such a delicious Greek spot.

The server, Christos, who is 86 years old, came out to greet me as I was looking at the menu on the window. He certainly has a lot of charm and decided to take a chance. He doesn't understand English too well but definitely knows how to upsell. He asked me if I wanted hummus and bread, so I naturally thought it was part of the meal, but it was an additional four dollars. I ordered the great version of the Shepherd pie and he asked me if I wanted boiled potatoes since it was his grandmother's recipe. Again, I should have asked, but didn't realize I was going to be charging another five dollars as well as for anchovies on the salad. He seemed a little offended when I said I didn't really enjoy the Onassis dessert which he raved about and suggested that if I didn't like it, he would not charge me. Because I did not, and wanted to try the baklava sundae, he instead deliver the regular Baklava although it was not very crunchy and actually pretty soft and soggy like it had been sitting around and then microwaved. Probably the worst I've ever had. But he didn't charge me for the Onassis dessert. The salad was actually very good, particularly because of the added anchovies. The boiled potatoes were not anything special so I would pass if offered another chance. Sorry, grandmother! The main dish was also not very fresh and the Lamb tasted a little gamey. The "complementary" vegetable with the meal was green beans, which were very soggy and overcooked. Similarly, the rice tasted like it had been sitting around and prepared days ago. I also found two hairs on my plate. For $50, I would've expected a little bit more other than some interesting stories of how he used to work for Jackie O. But the worker who was sitting in the dining room and doing his own belching contest certainly added to the ambience as he was organizing the cutlery. Now I can understand why the place was so empty. I had planned to go to gaucho's down the block, but the wait was 30 minutes. Next time I will go to gaucho's instead.
