I'm giving 3 stars based largely on the service, which was excellent and easily deserved a 5. Unfortunately, the food was a different story. Much like Jess B. mentioned in the 2/23/25 review, I came in expecting a great Greek breakfast but ended up with something that felt more like a standard diner experience. That said, the young woman who greeted and served us was fantastic -- attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the meal. I ordered the pancakes with eggs. The pancakes were far too doughy and oddly topped with whipped cream, sprinkles, and bananas -- a presentation that felt more suited to a child's menu than an adult breakfast order. Want to put a cute topping on my cakes - you should ask me. They were also overcooked, as was the over-hard egg. At one point I even joked to my girlfriend that it felt like there must be a college kid running the kitchen. The service saved the experience, but the food definitely needs improvement. read more

Absolutely fabulous authentic Greek Food - we were blown away by how delicious everything was - we had the lamb - the ribs - Greek salad - Saganaki (fried cheese) and the Dolmades - and the Baklava for dessert- totally outstanding They have also an excellent brunch menu - which we will be trying next - stay tuned for the follow up read more

Not at all impressed that this Greek place is moonlighting as a brunch place. Came to Calgary excited to get great Greek and got told nope it's a lunch place. Not happy it at all. read more

I have been going to this restaurant for years. Today there was a mistake on an order. I called to clarify, was told I was not allowed to speak with the manager, and the person hung up the phone on me. When I tried to call back they hung up again. In this economy I would expect more appreciation from someone who spends hard earned money at this restaurant every week. Shame on you. read more

Excellent meals and fantastic service! Highly recommend and will be back. We had calamari and seafood pasta with a Greek wine that paired nicely. read more

They have breakfast now !!!! We went it was very good and not super busy that was awesome great place great people

All about trying new places this trip. Aunt was feeling Greek so we decided to try Calypso's Taverna. We came on a Saturday evening around 7:00pm and there was maybe a handful of tables. So dead (thanks again Stampede). They have a TV and were playing Wheel of Fortune. Haven't seen that show in years. Menu is pretty typical Greek: appetizers, soups/salads, dips, entrees and pastas (random). Would have liked to try their stuffed calamari! All the entrees come with rice, soup or salad, roast potatoes (nice acidity but salty) and vegetables (seems like they were frozen; bland). - Greek salad - aunt chose this one. Other alternative was Caesar. - Lentil soup - this was their soup of the day. Hearty. - Avgolemono - egg lemon chicken soup. Never had this before but it was homey! Like the chicken and rice that's thrown into this soup. - Salmon special ($26.99) - one of their specials of the night. Had a bite; good but not the greatest. A tad overcooked. - Pork baby back ribs special ($26.99) - massive platter of ribs! Fall off the bone, tender but still meaty. - Kleftiko ($20.95) - this is their speciality. The lamb shank was slow roasted perfectly. Loads of meat, not gamey and tender. - Spanakopita dinner ($17.95) - flaky and very buttery. - 2x Ek ten ($7.00) - Greek style bread pudding. Almonds, cinnamon, custard and whipped cream. This was right up my alley; love light, custard desserts. Just get one to share, it's a big piece. A little pricey but that's always the case when you go for Greek. 3.5 stars. read more

Soganaki was good and great presentation. I've never had it before so I don't have anything to compare it to. Very good tzazkiki sauce and good pita bread. I don't think it's homemade pita bread but still good. Service was great, especially considering she was the only one working. Stuffed calamari: not good! Couldn't even finish it. The chicken has no flavor and the calamari is too chewy. Eggplant looked amazing! It's what my parents order every time. read more

Our family came in on a quiet Monday night. Our server, Jessica, was very friendly, efficient, and attentive. Hubby and I ordered the seafood platter for two, which included fried calamari, mussels, butter shrimp, grilled salmon, rice, potatoes, tzatziki, and pita. Since our son has a shellfish and peanut allergy, he ordered the lamb souvlaki and enjoyed it very much! I had a taste -- the lamb was perfectly seasoned and juicy! Our fried calamari was lightly breaded; crispy on the outside and buttery soft on the inside. The mussels were served with a generous portion of tomato garlic sauce(enough to dip your pita bread, calamari, and spoon over the rice) in a separate bowl. The grilled salmon was flavourful although it was a tad overcooked. Also, I would have preferred crispier salmon skin! There is a lot of food on this platter, so be prepared to take some home if you have a small appetite! read more

The meals were ordered for delivery were fantastic! Really enjoyed the flavours, and portions were ideal. The calamari was the best I've ever had. The lamb was tender and perfectly cooked, and the spano pastry to filling ratio was spot on. read more

Great Greek food. The service is outstanding and the food is always good. Our goto is the saganaki or the trio dip and the mousaka. The Greek salad, while not a true Greek salad is very good, as is the dressing. We have also had the chicken souvlaki and the Greek style ribs. Both were very good and would order them again. The dark Greek beer the have, santorini black is quite good read more

Great menu, amazing food and superb service. Easy parking. Good location. I recommend and will be back.

On Monday night (Jul 26, 2021) my wife and I dined in and we ordered the Seafood Platter ($84), which came with steamed mussels in a rich tomato sauce, fried calamari rings, poached salmon, and shrimp in garlic butter, served with rice, potatoes, and pita bread. Everything was delicious, though I should mention that unless you have big appetites, you're most likely going to have to take leftovers home, the portions are hefty. Friendly, attentive, efficient service. Our first time, won't be our last. read more

I've been wanting to try out this restaurant for quite some time. The kids have been eating Greek since they were wee little ones so I knew they would enjoy this experience. After receiving our drinks (beer for the man, wine for me), we started with the Trio of dips & pita which was super delicious. Husband ordered the Rib Platter...we've heard great things about the ribs here and we can now proclaim every single one of them is true. The kids shared a kids version of the Chicken Souvlaki and being in the mood for chicken, I had the Chicken Souvlaki as well. Holy big plates batman. Yes there was a lot of food. The salads came first and the rest arrived hot and was very tasty. We browsed the dessert menu and I was elated to discover Ekmek on the menu. I first tried Ekmek 23+ years ago in the small town I grew up in. A new greek restaurant came to town and they had Ekmek. It was love at first bite and I have always remembered how much I loved this dessert. But it is hard to come by. Many greek restaurants do not make and/or serve it. Well Calypso's not only serves it they make the best Ekmek I've ever had. You must try it, simply delicious. Everything was delightful, from our awesome server down to the lovely but simple decor in the restaurant. Calypso we adore you. Will see you again soon. read more

Hit this place up during lunch and it was pretty dead - which luckily meant for great service, both prompt and friendly. It's a well kept place, nice and clean and inviting and family run from what I understand. I tried the Greek beer along with some Spanokapita which came with a healthy serving of Greek salad along side it. Both were great although a tad on the salty side (but then again I've been eating a sodium reduced diet so maybe I was just overly sensitive to it.). I'd definitely check it out again. read more

Calypso's Taverna - Greek Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Tasty Greek food at a reasonable price, all your favs are best as a plethora of apps- although meals are ok too.

I don't and haven't had Greek food often but I really enjoyed my dinner here. Don't let the name fool you! It's not 'tavern'-like, it's a restaurant! hehehe. Prices seem to be the same as other Greek resto's... give or take $1-2. Saganaki was cool - the flaming cheese - I'm sure it's the same everywhere. Others ordered the moussaka which I had a taste of and it was good - I would order this for myself next time I go. I had lamb souvlaki and it was cooked to my preference and came with a side of tzatziki (yummm!), rice, roasted potatoes (yummm), and veggies. Overall a good meal. Great service, and helpful staff. Authentic. Moussaka was gooooood! Left full and I didn't have any room for baklava... so next time I must leave some room for the baklava! :) read more

A pretty solid Greek cuisine, and a fine dining atmosphere/decor, though with the casual attitude. Ordered the calamari & their house lamb specialty, one piece on the bone, cooked very tender to fall off nicely. calamari came w/ lots of red onion, but cut thin and long. Great sauce. Entree came w/ rice, steamed veggies which was nice, and a relatively small portion of potato, prob. a third? Nice booth seating along the wall, and good place to have a group party. Limited parking in this small strip plaza. also have to say the server was quite friendly, even when I ordered hot water---came w/ a slice of lemon, nice touch. Rather tip more than ordering any sugary or alcoholic drinks ;) read more

Food: mousaka is delicious, a bit greasy 4*. Caesar salad with dressing made from scratch 5*. Calamari is cooked perfectly which is why it's tender and not rubbery 5*. Piglet suckling very tender and flavourful 5*. Side veggies to go with meal is pretty plain 2* Price: extremely reasonable considering food is made from scratch Service: waitresses are always on the ball, attentive read more

I went to this place as one of my team-members recommended it. I wasn't impressed with the service or food taste. I found the dishes a little pricey and lacking taste. It was an okay experience... nothing that would make me come back. read more

The service was spectacular. Atmosphere was great. It is a family business so it felt cozy as well. We ordered the sampler appetizer, calamari was delicious as well as the butter shrimps and the meatballs. For main dishes we orders the lamp souvlaki, chicken Alfredo and the stuffed calamari. Food was good warm and tasty The whole family enjoyed the food. Specially my kids who usually scream A&W when I ask "where to go for dinner"... I recommend Calypso's Taverna! read more

Calypso's Taverna - The stuffed calamari.. Yummy - Greek Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Wow, so not cool. Tasteless Greek salad in what seemed to be an oil only dressing. Then mains, the veggies were of the store bought frozen kind! Who does that on a $20 plate?!? Also, crappy service. Since we weren't ordering drinks we were discarded as not worth the server's time. Not only this, I'm not sure who our server was! Four different people helped us, none more than once. Some positives - atmosphere is quaint, like a family friendly community vibe. The portions were good, and most importantly, the meat was the best part of our dishes. Regardless, there were just too many stokes for me to bother going back. read more

Calypso's Taverna is a prime example of a family-run restaurant with solid food, ample portions, and friendly service in a fun, relaxed atmosphere - all of which add up to a great night dining out with friends and family. Situated on Centre Street in Tuxedo Park, an area lacking sit-down food options, Calypso's is definitely a standout hidden gem. If I could give ten stars for the service here, I honestly would. The owners and servers - all family - are enthusiastic, hilarious, helpful, and charming. There is not a dull or rushed moment when engaging in conversation with them! The décor is simple and inviting, reminding me of many a European restaurant that I've had the pleasure of dining in. Food prices are modest for what you get and the chow is great, both in flavour and authenticity. The dinner menu is extensive, but judging by the variety of dishes I tasted, everything is made fresh and with love! My only qualm would be the drinks list, which seemed to lack in craft beer (Big Rock Trad ale is the closest it gets), cocktails, and a more in-depth wine variety. After starting with the calamari appetizer, my co-diner and I raved continuously about how tasty and well-prepared it was. A light seasoned batter covered the squid rings and blended perfectly with the accompanying sauce and sliced red onion. It may not have been straight off the boat seafood being that it's Calgary, but it sure tasted like it hadn't come frozen. My co-diner was very impressed and, on several occasions, repeated that it was the best calamari he's ever had. For the main course, we both opted for the Kleftiko, slices of slow-roasted seasoned lamb with a side of rice and a roast potato. We also split a Greek salad, consisting of cut veggies, olives, and a slice of feta, all coated in olive oil. The plating was simple, as is the norm for most traditional European restaurants. The lamb was to die for! It was juicy, succulent, and roasted perfectly, without error. The potato was great, with a fresh lemon flavour, while the rice was just okay - a bit bland and slightly overcooked for my taste. The Greek salad was a hit; a little reminder of how such simple ingredients can make a stellar dish! With such fond memories of Calypso's Taverna still fresh in our minds, we decided to return a week later, this time for dinner and another round of authentic Greek! We shared the Saganaki starter - oven-baked Kefalograviera cheese served with a soft pita. This dish took me back years and years to previous tastings; having grown up in Romania, we had similar varieties of it. The cheese is gooey and delicious; everyone loved it! For the main I decided to try the Greek Style Ribs, a dish made up of individually cut seasoned pork ribs, served with rice, roasted potato and veggies, as well as a salad or soup. The sides were good, but the star was once again the meat! The pork was meaty, tender, and most importantly, not overseasoned. My co-diners praised their plates and we all left content, with full stomachs. In the modern age, it's difficult to find honest restaurant owners that truly care for their patrons, but I believe Calypso's is doing things with a traditional approach and I applaud them for it. Looking around at nearby tables, everyone was having a fantastic time at this little neighbourhood Greek joint. The fact that it's blocks away from my current residence, you bet I'll be returning for round three soon! You should do the same! read more

Absolutely fabulous authentic Greek food! Thank you so very much Calliope for a wonderful 49th birthday lunch!! The Saganaki was superb! The appetizer platter for two (shared by three of us) was a perfect blend of tastes; the spicy tomato sauce on the meatballs (delicious dipping pita bread into too) was excellent! The prawns (in garlic butter) and calamari (with red onion) were cooked to perfection (Tender and melt in your mouth)! The Spanakopita was a perfect balance of spinach and feta and seasonings in a beautiful phyllo pastry, and the tzatziki added that perfect garlic flavor to dip the pita bread or calamari in. We were even spoiled with a delectable complimentary baklava for a birthday dessert! Thank you for the best baklava I literally have ever tasted! It was not too sweet, and a perfect blend of cinnamon and nuts and pastry, with just a fine drizzle of honey! The best way to finish a very special birthday lunch! Thank you ever so much for making us feel like family, even though it was only our first visit to your fine establishment. A hidden gem in a little strip mall on center street, our new favorite Greek restaurant! (And thank you for the affordable lunch menu too, we went on a Monday around 12:30pm , and had both excellent service, and a wonderfully relaxing lunch) read more

Calypso's Taverna - Appetizer platter for two (fed 3 nicely) - Greek Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Took the road trip from the SE to Calypso's to celebrate a birthday. Don't know who's, but I am sure someone was born on Feb 18th. Anyway, our crew of 5 was seated for lunch. The Calypso offers a specific lunch menu and daily specials averaging 15 bucks a dish. After having a few Mythos brews, we placed our orders. Saganaki and calamari for appies and then the mains. I had the Kleftiko, two of our dudes had the pork chop special and the other two went with a salmon and a souvlaki respectively. The Saganaki was very good and the Calamari was lightly battered and crisp and delish as well. As we mowed through the appies I noticed the decor represented some of the best highlights of Greece. Adjacent to the restaurant area is a small lounge area. The mains showed up and by all accounts the meals were satisfying. My lamb dish was tender and flavourful. The lemon potato was fabulous. Sampled the grilled mushrooms from the pork chop special and they were very tasty. A couple more Mythos and we were out the door. All in, a good dining experience! read more

This is a family owned and operated place, with a reel family feel to it. Even the hired staff are like family, and after you go there a few times, they begin to treat you a bit like family too. They remember our orders, call us by name, and engage us on a more personal level. Don't worry, they're not intrusive. It's just that this has become our favourite place to go, and the warm, friendly, familiarity in the service is a big part of that. What about the food. I'll admit I haven't enjoyed all the dishes I've tried equally well, but the ones I do, I have over and over again. The ribs are my favourite in town. Lamb and lamb chops, excellent. If you can get the suckling pig--Wow! Do it! I'd never had it before. Now I can't resist it when it's on offer (I think it's a Friday night special). It's tender, it's flavourful, the crispy skin part was amazing. Deserts are great. More than just the standard baklava, though nothing wrong with baklava here. It's just that there are other great ones to explore too. Portions of all things are generous. read more

Best Greek food in Calgary. I am Greek and have eaten this food my entire life. My family has Greek restaurants in Astoria, NY and this is as close to yiayia's cooking as I can remember. Great people that work here and always great service. You will not be disappointed. read more

I am Archimedes. I am a nymph frolicking in the woodlands. I am a demi-god. Oh, wait, my mistake, I have just stuffed myself with so much calamari that I am obviously hallucinating. This place is great, it is not adorned with terrible fake pillars and your eyes are not bombarded by a colour palette comprised entirely of blue and white (bad Greek or euro trash music though). The family that owns this place is very friendly and accommodating, we have been here with a party of 4, 6, 8 and 20 and every time the service has been fabulous. Also go here if you are Greek, cause they will love you. I always go with my Greek friend (as I am a little too Dutch) and they always bring us Ouzo for the table and are attempting to set her up now with their son. The food is to die for, I will eat an entire discus full of their tzatziki. If you order any of their dinners you will be stuffed, the Calamari dinner is a plate full of breaded squid goodness with lemon potato, rice and veggies (and of course it comes with tzatziki!). You also get your choice to start with a Greek salad, soup or a plain boring ol' green salad, but why would you order that in a Greek restaurant!! The starters are great such as the sanganki and their desserts will put you into a phyllo pastry overload, but it is so worth it. I am not giving Calypso a full 5 because their side veggies have been steamed to death, or maybe they came out of a bag, but they are no good, and I can't say I have really tested the rest of the mains as I ALWAYS get the calamari dinner. Come down, meet Popi, order a Mythos and prepare to enjoy your meal! read more

A great find off the beaten path. This Greek restaurant has an understated decor, no blue and white theme and plethora of faux Greek god statues adorning the premises. Dare I say it was tasteful, which was somewhat surprising given it's strip mall location. Okay, maybe not the vinyl tablecloths and the silk plants but not too bad in the whole Greek restaurant scheme of things. The food itself was excellent. We arrived not starving hungry, so as enticing as the appetizers looked on the menu we opted to just have the dinner which included soup or salad, potatoes, rice and a vegetable. The salad options were Greek or Caesar. The Greek salad although tasty was highly overdressed and the salad bowls were an awkward shape which made it more difficult to eat then it needed to be. When the mains arrived we were glad that we didn't order appetizers because the portions were very generous. The Kleftiko (roasted lamb) was moist, tender and flavourful. The seafood souvlaki was fabulous and consisted of 2 good sized scallops, 2 jumbo prawns, and 2 large chunks of salmon. All components of the souvlaki were seasoned and cooked perfectly with the tzatziki a perfect addition. The service was friendly and attentive and the bar menu offered an adequate number of options. I would not hesitate to return for a really nice Greek meal. Opa! 4.5 stars read more

What lovely people! Family owned and run Greek restaurant, with a feeling of dining at home. Such warm and friendly people, great service, great food and very reasonable prices. We went in a big and loud group with lots of kids and high chairs and special requests, and quite frankly were a nightmare, but the staff, the owners and everyone was so welcoming and accommodating till the end. One of my best dining experiences in Calgary!! read more

Yet another Greek restaurant on Centre street you say? Yes, yet another. But hey, considering the plethora of Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese and Italian eateries around here, the numbers don't matter. Tucked into the same strip mall as Cabin Fever books Calypso is fairly subtle as far as Greek places go. No loud blue and white signage, no sculptures, just the black and white sign to indicate their presence. The inside is done in subtle browns and greys (with the odd sculpture by the bar) and the booths and tables are widely spaced. A single flat-screen TV is mounted by the bar, otherwise there's portraits of Greek landmarks on the walls. Starting out with an order of mythia (mussels in spicy tomato and white wine broth) we picked the mussels clean (and I am not a huge shellfish fan) and scooped up the remaining broth with bread. I had the moussaka (on a previous visit I had an excellent chicken souvlaki and this was another recommendation) and my girlfriend ordered the psilokomeni salad, something neither her or I had never heard of. My moussaka was rich, creamy and the eggplant was fresh and the beef was subtly spiced. The potatoes had that wonderful Greek roasted taste of lemon that no matter how I hard I try, I can never pull off at home. The vegetable sides were seasonal and fresh. The psilokomeni was simple and wonderful on the palette with the romaine, dill, green onions and garlic in the house made dressing making for a refreshing meal. The head server later explained to me it was a "winter salad" of vegetables available in people's gardens once the tomato/olive season is over. Sadly, the only thing available in most gardens here in the winter is snow. So just head to Calypsos for their version. To finish, we had two rich, strong, dark Greek coffees and, as a kind gesture, they threw in dessert because they recognized me from a previous visit! I believe we had the bougatsa, phyllo pastry filled with custard and dusted with icing sugar and cinnamon. As good as it sounds and even better with the coffee. The pricing at Calypsos is reasonable, with the huge portions running from $16-$26 per entree and appetizers in the $8-$12 range. The wine list carries many Greek wines with some other worldly selections and almost every bottle (save one French red) is $40 or less for the bottle. For digestives, Metaxa is also featured. If you're looking for a comfortable Greek restaurant with all your favourite dishes and great prices, I highly suggest you check it out. I also noticed a few families dining so it's obviously as popular for families as it is for couples out on dates. read more

When hunger pangs hit, you can just about guarantee hearty portions and lots of flavour if you hit up a Greek restaurant... especially when run by a Greek family. Are any of the Greek places in town run by non Greeks? Somehow I don't think so. Calypso's Taverna didn't exist when I first moved to Calgary. I do believe it's been around about 4 years or so. And unless you know to go, you'd probably drive by it every time you come down Centre Street. It's another one of those, "I'm an amazing restaurant hidden in a strip mall" kind of places we seem to have so much of. When you visit, you'll no doubt run into Popy. You'll enjoy her. I promise. And you should, of course, order yourself some food. We started with the baked feta and olives, it came with some pita to dip in there. Yum. All I've heard anything about at Calypso's is the Kleftiko - even the menu says it's the house specialty... "lamb slowly roasted to perfection." Well, if perfection is intended to be a succulent piece of meat that wraps my tastebuds in a blanket of flavourful juices, then I guess it must be true. Drink wise... there was something with mango juice and some alcohol. Can I remember what it was called? Nay. But if you like fruity, it'll do ya fine! Good for: large group dinners, date, birthday party, anniversary, lunch, or anyone with a large appetite. read more

I live right beside 4th n 40th and wanted to take family for good Greek food. Yelp showed the shoddy Stavros as an option. Wanting to impress my family in a positive light I kept searching. Fortunately, I came across Calypso. This place was everything Stavros is not. Fair prices, amazing food, nice ambiance, and terrific service. We started with the Greek style ribs which were perfect. For entrees two of us had the succulent lamb, 1 had the seafood pasta and had enough for a second serving. The final order was the chicken souvlaki which was ample, fresh, and plump (unlike the many places which overcook and leave their meat to dry out). Additionally, nothing was doused in garlic/oregano which seems all too popular. After all was said and done the 4 of us had DELICIOUS food with an appie which cost $115 including a generous tip. A far cry better than the original suggestion from yelp of Stavros which charges $28 per 12" pizza. Looking forward to returning! read more

Yum yum yum!!! Went here for a celebration dinner and it was excellent! The service was very friendly, and the food was amazing. If you order the appetizer platter for two ($30) you will be full! Between four of us, we had that, the saganaki, and main courses. 3 of the main courses came with soup or salad. It was sooo delicious and I could barely eat it after the appetizer and saganaki. The saganaki (cheese doused and set a flame, served with pita and an Opa!) was to die for. It didn't taste healthy by any means, but it was cheesy heaven. If you've never ordered it before then do it. The appetizer platter came with meatballs in a tomato sauce, spanakopita, calamari, tzatziki, pita, and there may have been something else. So good, and between two people would probably be enough. The inside of the restaurant is cozy and relaxing. All the food was received very well. I can't wait to go back! read more

This is my favourite place for greek salad. It has the right balance of everything: feta, olives, tomatoes, red onions, cucumber and dressing. The only thing I would change is that the feta is sliced and the slices put on top of the salad, it's not a biggy but you need to crumble up and mix in the cheese to get the full greek salad taste. I can't really give a thorough review because I always end up having the kleftiko (lamb) because it's so good. I've also had the baby octopus (appetizer) and the sauce is lick-the-plate clean good. There is a small parking lot which the restaurant shares with a couple of other businesses so parking can be an issue but there is street parking in the neighbourhood. Service is efficient and friendly. read more

This little find was amazing! Food was delicious and the owner couldn't be any friendlier! Definitely recommend if you're in the area !

I will give 4 star for this restaurant. As a Greek restaurant, its meat and feta are pretty good. I ordered their daily special, the roasted pork(with ribs). The ribs are so good, they are well-seasoned. The price is fair. The only thing I don't like is their vegetables. They are not fresh. I think they are frozen vegetables. Overall, if you want to try Greek cuisine, it's a good place to go. read more

Greek food at its best! For appy, we ordered the Calamari. Tender and lightly battered; comes with tzatziki sauce and sliced raw red onions and parsley. Quite a large appy for 4 people. We ordered the following for our meals: Kleftiko - Roasted lamb with roasted potato, rice and steamed vegetables. Comes with choice of soup or salad - we ordered 2 orders of this wonderful Kleftiko and the 2 soups we had were the Fava bean tomatoey soup and the Chicken Rice Lemon Soup. Both soups were so hearty for a cold day like today. Mousaka - Huge and I mean, huge slab of Mousaka! The Mousaka was nicely layered with zucchini, potatoes, bechamel & tomato meat sauce. This also came with rice, roasted potato and steamed veges. Souvlaki - Lovely chunks of charbroiled lamb, cooked medium-rare and definitely, cooked to perfection! The sides were also rice, potatoes and steamed vege. Very fulfilling meal! We WILL be back! read more

This greek restaurant offered exactly what we were looking for. Though the calamari was obviously made from frozen rings, it was not overdone or chewy and their homemade tzatziski was one of the best I have ever had. Entrees proved better still, the lamb is tender and nicely seasoned with tasty sides of chicken flavored rice, veggies and lemon potato. Hubby had the entree dolmathes with lemon cream sauce and it was well balanced and a large portion. We will both be taking home leftovers. Surprisingly large wine menu for a greek restaurant. Friendly service to top it off. Running off their feet a little this friday evening. We will return. read more

A work colleague suggested we check out this resto because we love Greek food. We stopped in on a Friday night after work before heading to a movie. We heard the portions were huge, so we avoided ordering appetizers. My husband had the kleftiko with a Greek salad side. The lamb (kleftiko) was delicious, probably the best I've tasted. The salad and other sides were average. My husband's version of Greek salad is tastier. I ordered the spanakopita. It was fantastic - even better than the one I make myself. It had a great flavour. The only downside is that it seemed to have been reheated, not made 'fresh'. I had the lemon rice soup, avoglemono, which came with the meal. It was good, with big chunks of chicken, but I missed the lemony tang I expected, and I felt it was not enough flavour for me and it had a bit too much rice, which I didn't finish. The roasted potatoes were good as well, but not enough lemon flavour for my palate. I agree with other reviewers, the entree veggies are not good enough for a restaurant meal. My green beans tasted over-cooked and tough at the same time, and were bland. We didn't order anything but our main dishes because we didn't want a 'huge' meal but it still felt like a lot of food. I almost wish they would provide smaller portions, especially of the sides. We plan to go back because the spanakopita and the kleftiko were so tasty. I'd like to try the moussaka and an appetizer next time. Our waitress was friendly and helpful, if a bit 'rough around the edges' - leaving used plates on the table, etc. The atmosphere is better than expected for how it looks from the outside. I would recommend this to friends looking for a mid-priced, value-added meal (if you like a LOT of food). The food came very fast, so it was perfect for a movie night.
