Lobster pasta
Monica B.

I came here for a birthday dinner and left with so much more! We were a party of 10 and our server was great. The fresh fish that he displayed was Top Notch, they bring you the fish to the table. And they explain in detail each fish and price! They had me at Fresh Fish which is what I got, it was the fish under the branzino. It was grilled perfectly and the lemon butter sauce was to die for! My side was the Greek salad. The Greek salad took me back to Greece fresh vegetables delicious olive oil and herbs. My friends got the lobster pasta which she loved. Another guest got the salmon with roasted veggies and they said that was delicious as well. The Ambiance is upscale Mediterranean, but it made you feel like you were the guest of honor! I will definitely be back I heard their lunch menu is great!

Greek salad
Sam P.

Amazing Greek restaurant where we got a chance to try a variety of dishes and found some absolute favorites. Beautiful restaurant with elegant bar and dining area! Began with a gin cocktail and some appetizers. Their take on a Greek salad was spectacular with lots of fresh grilled veggies. Also enjoyed their trio of dips with a fantastic tzatziki! Then we enjoyed amazing grilled shrimp and tuna tartare which was so delicious and fresh! The main courses were a variety of their dishes - many meat which I don't eat but their Sea-bass was melt in your mouth and their vegetables were cooked to perfection. Finally they brought us a dessert tray with a variety of pastries and fruit! They told us their signature was baklava which I typically don't like but their version was spectacular and. It too sweet. Really loved it! Service was fantastic throughout the night! This was a delicious meal on a very pretty setting!

Everything about this place is top notch! We came here to celebrate my sister's birthday and we were a party of 9. From start to finish, the service was impeccable from everyone. And the food was amazing! I wish I had gotten a picture of everything we had, but we were too busy enjoying it all. The appetizers are amazing and the entrees are incredible. The desserts were fantastic. This is definitely a place that you need to visit if you are looking for phenomenal food and service.

Love avra! It's walking distance so I scooped this on the way and it was so so delicious. The avra chips weren't on doordash/uber eats for some reason but they did tell me they could make it to go if we wanted! Great flavors and very fresh

Carrabineros. Exceptionally good.
Mike S.

A fantastic new Greek/Mediterranean venue that opened in September of 2025. We went there with a large group and everyone was thoroughly impressed with the service, the food, and the ambience. We started with drinks at the bar, which is beautifully appointed, and the bartenders were great. The restaurant menu is large with a mix of Mediterranean dishes, fresh fish, steaks chops, and many traditional Greek items. Most of the sides are a la carte. If you are considering fish, it includes a tour of the fresh fish cabinet, which is a large case full of ice and multiple different types of fresh fish and crustaceans. Wow! We ordered several for the table to eat family style. The Dover Sole was a huge hit, but everything was delicious. Try the carrabineros shrimp - fantastic. They have a great wine list, and our waiter was outstanding in helping us decide what to order. For dessert I highly recommend the butter cake, which was truly exceptional. Overall we had a wonderful experience and a very special night.

French fries
Jaquita L.

Upon entering the restaurant, I immediately loved the ambiance. Elegant and sophisticated, so don't come in here with t-shirts and flip flops! I mean you could but you might be turned away! Our server was pleasant and very helpful with all of our questions. He made sure we were good the entire time and not too much. Now here's what you came here for - the food! Hummus 9/10: I believe it is complimentary and it was some of the best I've had. Fresh and served with pita slices and crackers. Not a fan of the crackers but loved the pita bread. French fries 8/10: yes I ordered French fries and they were delicious. Cooked perfectly and had a great texture. Classic spread 8/10: selected the htipiti, tzatziki and scordalia as our dips and these were so fresh. The tzatziki was my fav. Also served with pita and crackers. I preferred the pita and wish it was served with more because there were three dips. Salmon 9/10: the salmon and the vegetables were fresh and cooked perfectly. Salmon was seasoned well and happy they had hot sauce. Yes I eat my salmon with hot sauce. Mocktail 9/10: I can't remember the name but this had nice flavor and was very refreshing. Wish I had ordered two!

Lavraki
Polina T.

Avra is a must-try. The food and the ambiance definitely speak for themselves. While our waiter was great, the hostess and our seating rubbed us the wrong way. Let's start with the good : Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious . We started with the Greek salad and the yellowtail jalapeño. The sashimi was divine and the fish melted in your mouth. For entrees, my husband got the big eye tuna and I got the Lavraki. I highly recommend the Lavraki if you enjoy mild fish with a buttery finish . The truffle fries were also yummy. The 'fish market' is a fun experience . What was a bit off putting was the fact that I made a reservation the day prior . We arrived about 3 minutes before our scheduled time and the people in front of us did not have a reservation. The hostess told us she will check us in and to wait a bit while she 'finds us a table' and seated the other party first. In addition, they literally sat us right by the registers and kitchen door so there were constantly employees walking by me and almost bumping into me - just an odd place to seat someone. Overall, this wouldn't stop us from coming back, but definitely made our experience a bit frustrating .

Visited Avra again and it did not disappoint. This time we tried their fish from fish market, you get to choose which fish you want and they will guide you on which one suits your palate. I loved their calamari, it was very fresh and delicious. We also tried ice cream for dessert and they do make it in house so it's fresh and never frozen.

This is a cute Greek restaurant. They do have valet services. The food was good. I really loved the Greek salad, pita bread, the chicken and the cheesecake. The lunch menu is nice to have - I wish they allowed a little more customization. The service was great.

I love a good boujee dinner! Also nice been locking Mediterranean food so I've been meaning to go to Avra! The staff was nice, food was good, service was great no complaints!

​Absolutely spectacular dinner! fresh perfectly seasoned Mediterranean and Greek seafood, this is the place to be. Every dish we ordered was incredibly fresh and packed with flavor. our server, Fernando, provided excellent service.

Greek salad that was basically just tomatoes
Emily G.

Our server, Kevin, was 10/10. It's really good service that will set a restaurant apart. The kitchen sent out a Greek salad that was basically just tomatoes, so Kevin had another one sent with no tomatoes so we could combine them. The food was very flavorful and distinctly different from a lot of the restaurants you have in Dallas. Pretty busy night meant the restaurant was noisy, but still had a great ambiance. Will be going back for sure.

Pita and hummus
Niraja S.

Absolutely loved the classy vibes, great service, and delicious food. Would definitely recommend for a special occasion!

Not the Ziziki's I grew up with but good. As with everything these days the prices have increased…read moreand portions have shrunk. Knowing Costa Arabatzis from the early 1990s and his early days on Lower Greenville and its various iterations to the beautiful large Ziziki's on Knox/Henderson and most recently Preston Forest. I'm always happy to visit. The classic Greek Platter (Spanakopita, pastichio, chicken or lamb souvlaki) $40 had a good portion of a dry, lamb souvlaki and a very small portion of spanakopita and pastichio. The pastichio was delicious. A platter that used to be shareable is barely for one. The vibe is casual but romantic. What you would expected for a restaurant in this neighborhood. The lights are dim so bring a date. The little bar could be fun for drink before heading out for the night and there's a small patio. The service was swift and they offered a Greek wine option based on my tastes. It's was good and I would order a glass again. Maybe for me it's the nostalgia that keeps me coming back but with other Greek options I find my visits fewer and farther between.

The service…read morewas wonderful, we had an older lady that was eager to assist us and never had an empty glass. Mimosa service came with orange, peach, or cranberry juice. You can get refills of whatever food you want more of too, which is great. We really enjoyed the eggs, Ziziki bread, waffles and spanakopita. We also brought our own cake and they added sparkler candles which were really fun! I think my only disappointment was telling her that we had a vegetarian in the group and she said she'd take care of us, but we didn't get anything different. We were hoping for some falafel or something, but we still all left full and satisfied!

The pink dining room in the back is adorable and Instagram-worthy, and the patio feels like you've been transported to the Mediterranean. Unfortunately, the service and food didn't live up to the setting. We arrived right at 5 PM and had even called ahead to confirm the happy hour menu. When we got there, we were told the menu had changed. Fine, we adjusted and placed our order at 5:30. By 6 PM, only half of it had arrived, and when we asked about the missing items, they wouldn't honor the happy hour pricing even though this was the first thing we ordered when we arrived. The meatballs were what we were most excited to try, but after waiting 40 minutes (with all of our other food already out), they still hadn't arrived. On top of that, our drinks took over 30 minutes and multiple reminders to finally show up. The happy hour deals for drinks were great, drinks were 1/2 off and they do $5 Lalo tequila. Maybe it was just an off day, but between the slow service, missing items, and mixed-up pricing, the experience was pretty disappointing - especially considering how beautiful the space is.

Drinks and food were GREAT! We ordered the squash blossoms, meatballs, dip trio, spanakopita, and…read moreshrimp pasta. Loved it all. Definitely get the squash blossoms if they have them. I thought every bring was very flavorful and presented beautifully. Excited to go back and try other dishes. Complaint - service was slow. We went on a Wednesday and it wasn't super crowded, but our waitress barely checked on us.

Given it was 12:30pm we were happy to see this place was quite full but still had a table for the 2 of us inside. There is a terrace which might be an option for our next visit. Yea you read that right, we will definitely be back. For lunch we ordered the octopus appetizer which was nice a tender, perfectly grilled and simply served with the most perfect vinaigrette. Nothing more than a little squeeze of lemon over it and you could have brought me a dozen more. But we had to save room for our mains. I chose the gyros salad and my wife the baked haddock with Greek potatoes and string beans. Both dishes were perfect. Not too fancy and just what the doctor ordered. Overheard several tables around us that they were repeat customers so we must have stumbled on to something good. So if you are thinking Greek, check this place out. You won't be disappointed

The main dish just wasn't my favorite, but it wasn't because it wasn't well made, it was more of a texture preference for me. The potatoes were a little overcooked for my liking, although a friend at our table said his were great. I did, however, love the gigantes! Our table also shared the Trio of Dips (tirokafteri, hummus, and skordalia), the moussaka, the Brazilian steak, and the Aegean stuffed pepper. The tirokafteri and hummus were both delicious. The skordalia wasn't for me, but that's simply because it's essentially a chilled potato dip, not a reflection of the restaurant. The Brazilian steak was fantastic, great flavor and cooked perfectly. The stuffed pepper and moussaka also got a thumbs-up from our group. I believe our server's name was Uli, and he was good. He took the time to explain several dishes. Greek food probably isn't at the top of my personal favorites list, but this one was ok.

The restaurant is located in a complex that is pretty busy, and parking is pretty tight. I would recommend parking in the garage behind the restaurant or trying to snag a spot in the Trader Joe's parking lot. We made reservations on Saturday morning for Saturday evening, and the restaurant was busy but not too packed. Our server was attentive and very helpful. The ambiance is very nice, and the restaurant is decorated pretty well. We started with several appetizers and a couple of cocktails. We got the lamb meatballs, the hummus, the calamari, and the roasted cauliflower. All of it was delicious. For entrees, we got the adana kebab, the salmon kebab, and the cheese pizza thing (forgot the actual name!). All of it was delicious but the Adonna kebab was amazing. The Salman in kebab was a little bit dry and overcooked but still tasty. We will definitely be back and hopefully in the future, we can sit on the patio when the weather is nicer.
