    I have been driving past this place for years and even for a period of years worked within walking distance of it, but somehow have never eaten here. Man was I missing out! Walking in is like arriving in your Time Machine and traveling to the 70's. I am convinced that is when the place had its last update..., but I wasn't here for ambiance, I was here for food! Our server was great. He was not formal, but was polite. He was right there every time we needed him. We ordered a few things to share: Spinach Pie, Lemon Chicken Soup, and of course, their Flaming Cheese. Everything was DELICIOUS! I will be back soon to try more menu items! Review #2186

    I got the falafel, gyro platter and Saganaki. The falafel was light and crispy, on the smaller side though but still delicious. The star of the show was the saganaki. Rich, butterfly, light, and delicious. I wish it had some lemon slices.

    I keep getting the same thing Falafel wrap( this time, i added the garlic sauce that comes on top of the greek fries) Fire feta ( hands down the beat, way bet tree r than opa! ) Greek fries ( the feta, garlic sauce and seasoning i mean you can drink that combo its so good) Baklava cheesecake - 5 stars

    The saganaki came out sizzling and full of flavor, and the rest of the dishes had that fresh, homemade feel. The lively atmosphere made the meal even more enjoyable.

    Gyro platter with fried zucchini, so yum! Loved the rice too

    Friendly service and really good food!! I got the gyro plate and not pictured my husband got the chicken gyro. He enjoyed his, too.

    First time here, came in for a late lunch. Place was empty, but slowly people came in and most were take out orders. Our food came last even though we were there before the other two tables. The gyro was delicious and the Greek potatoes were a first for us...healthier option than fries. The only thing missing was some hot sauce/chili. I will definitely come back, I am surprised I hadn't found or tried this place before! But I guess the name doesn't help it's identity as a Greek spot.

    Delicious food and great service. You can BYOB to round off a nice meal. The Flaming Cheese is rich and creamy. The patio is nice but on a noisy street.

    Such a small mom and pop restaurant with a big heart. Start with a FLAMING Cheese Saganaki! Literally delicious! The pita is fresh and the cheese is creamy! (See pic) The best part of this place is they treat everyone so well! The customer service is fantastic. It helps that the food is delish, too. A special (dinner meal) comes with FOUR sides. F.O.U.R. not 2. So you will be full. Trust the process. Not sure if I got all the pics, but we had shrimp skewers, baked tilapia, and salmon (our party of 3. My only recommendation is for the green beans to be fresh... with the seasoning and way it is prepared, canned or frozen beans wither easily. I'm It's a little off the beaten path but easy to get to and a pleasure to enjoy!

The music is nice and you can tell they really focus on creating a beautiful Mediterranean experience. The food is completely incredible and very unique. This is not your average Greek pita place. This is a restaurant that could easily be in Turkey for some European country. We started with the Mezza platter ( $29) - which included 6 different dips. It's pricey for an appetizer, but it is definitely worth it because it's so unique and flavorful. It was probably my favorite thing that we ate. Everything felt just a little bit overpriced for what it is. My baseline comparison is Hillstones and R&D, and this is definitely Hillstone's pricing, but not the same experience overall. My wife and I shared the lamb shank and the falafel platter and also had a side of cauliflower (which was incredible). My 3 year old had the kids item which was $18!?. it was all very very good. My wife and I had a glass of wine and the average price was $18. They also had no descriptions of what style of wine it was e.g. Cabernet Sauvignon. When I asked the server, he just recommended the Caymus. The service was transactional and something you would get at most fast casual restaurants. I get that a lot of the servers are not professional servers. For the mezze platter, it would've been helpful to have an explanation of what was on it. Basically they brought the food. They took our order and that was it. Parents: they have one kids meal which included four chicken kebabs and a side of either rice or fries ($18). The price felt very steep for a kids meal. I probably would rather have had half the portion size for half the price.

The grilled chicken plate is my go-to -- tender, seasoned perfectly, and paired with the softest, fluffiest rice. Their vegetables taste like they came straight out of someone's home kitchen, not a restaurant kitchen. But let me tell you: the bread here is unbelievable. Warm, buttery, soft... it tastes like it's baked with love. They should honestly charge extra for it, but they don't. The Turkish tea is another comfort -- simple, hot, soothing. You sit there sipping it and you forget you're right next to one of Dallas' busiest stretches of road. The servers here? Handsome, kind, and attentive without hovering. They make the experience feel even lighter and more enjoyable. Ephesus is the type of place you come to when you need nourishment -- real nourishment -- and a break from the chaos of the city. Great prices, great portions, great energy. It's one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Dallas, easily.

    My husband and I hosted our rehersal dinner on the top floor of The Mayor's House on a Sunday…read moreevening in April, with a final guest count of 75--and it was truly perfect. We initially discovered the restaurant back in January when we dined there and immediately fell in love with the food, service, and atmosphere. That same night, we inquired about hosting a larger event (around 80 guests) and secured our April date with a deposit. From the very beginning, working with Jenna, the manager, was seamless. We communicated though text, which made planning easy and stress-free. Jenna curated a limited menu for our guests featuring popular dishes she personally recommended--chicken, beef, lamb, and vegetarian options--which made ordering simple while still offering great variety. She was also incredibly flexible with seating arrangements and accommodated exactly how I wanted guests placed. One detail I especially appreciated was her willingness to honor special requests--she arranged for a tres leches cake from a local bakery for dessert, which was a huge hit. On the day of the event, Jenna met me an hour early so I could set up extra decorations like flowers, a banner, and place cards. That extra time made a big difference and helped everything feel personal and organized. As guests arrived, we had them go directly to their assigned seats--which I highly recommend for a group this size, as it fills up quickly. The staff immediately began service with starters (hummus, salad, and bread), and they were quick to take both food and drink orders. Everything came out promptly, and the service throughout the evening was incredibly attentive and responsive. Every single guest had something positive to say about their meal and dessert, which says a lot when hosting a group this large. After dinner, the staff cleared tables efficiently, and we were able to enjoy the balcony space--an absolute highlight. It provided the perfect backdrop for photos with family, overlooking the Dallas skyline. At the end of the night, Jenna checked in with us to debrief, mentioning that the assigned seating helped her team provide faster, smoother service--which we definitely noticed. Not only did we have an amazing event, but we also felt like we built a genuine connection with her. She struck the perfect balance of being both professional and personable.
