Lamb Gyro
Tonja H.

The Greek lady is definitely a place to try if you're in Philadelphia! We ordered in DoorDash and the food was delivered still hot! I didn't get pics as they started eating too quick. I had the gyro and it was HUGE! The lamb was seasoned perfectly the bread was tasty and the prices are reasonable!

French toast platter with fruit salad and home fries
Mia M.

Greek lady has mediocre greek food but very good breakfast. Their home fries are phenomenal, the breakfast sandwiches are huge, and you can't go wrong with one of the omelettes. Their vegetarian gyro is filled with vegetables and French fries which is a little weird, but the rest of their Greek food is okay. There's some seating inside but it can get busy on weekend evenings. We've also done breakfast catering from here for group brunch events, and again, the platter of homefries is always a big hit.

Greek Salad Greek Omelette

Amazing service and food today. I had a Greek omelette and Greek salad. The food was fresh and delicious.

Lamb Gyro

Gyros always smack (I get mine without fries in the gyro) Eat in or take out, both quick service.

Lamb Gyro Platter
Katherine S.

The service was great today for lunch! We ordered the lamb gyro platters with Greek salad and bakalava for dessert. It was good to watch as they were cutting the meat from the Shawarma and building the sandwiches. The homemade peach ice tea was a refreshing touch as well.

Not sure why this restaurant has such low ratings. It is the perfect no frills lunch spot with affordable food for great value! I have only gotten the house/lamb gyros. The meat is always tender and well seasoned. They put fries in the sandwich (personally, I take them out to munch on) and layered on top is salad with lettuce, tomatos, and onions. It's the perfect combination. Service is quick! Simple restaurant, no frills, local spot.

Chicken Finger Hoagie
Ade B.

I saw the Greek Lady on JL Jupiter's YouTube channel. I'm trying not to eat as much processed meat these days, so their chicken finger hoagie sounded like a great option. I ordered the chicken finger hoagie, along with a couple of desserts for delivery. My delivery came promply and the chicken finger hoagie did not disappoint. The worst thing I could say was that it was too large to eat in one meal, and doesn't retain it's flavor the next day the same way a traditional lunchmeat hoagie would. But it a delicious hoagie, full of chopped up pieces of perfectly fried chicken. I really wanted to devour the entire thing in one meal, but just couldn't do it. My desserts were a slice of carrot cake and red velvet cake. The red velvet cake was disappointing. I would not order that again. The carrot cake was outstanding. I'm not a big fan of the nuts, so the cake could have been perfect without buts. But even with the nuts it's one of the top carrot cakes I've ever tasted. Next time I'm in West Philly I will try to make time to stop in to the Greek Lady to sample more of the menu.

Outdoor table; Greek Lady Salad
Prasanta A.

The Greek Lady is an excellent place! We went here twice on our long weekend in Philly. The food is fresh and delicious, the portion sizes are generous, and all for a decent cost. Our party ordered the lamb gyro, the chicken gyro the veggie hoagie (large and generous) and the Greek Lady salad. Everything was delicious. The gyros were fresh and generous, the salads were gigantic (we needed to-go boxes for those). The staff are excellent, courteous and very customer-oriented. We had a party of 10 and grabbed a table right outside, and it was delightful. The woman working (who we learned is from Albania) was so kind and thoughtful and we had a good time chatting with her--but didn't get her name. Very near to Penn's campus and on a Saturday afternoon we were even able to park on the street right in front. You can't go wrong with a stop here!

One of the best things about this place is how approachable it is. You can usually walk in, grab a seat, or find a spot at the bar without the unnecessary restrictions you might encounter at Zahav, where apparently even ordering a drink at the bar can become an issue. During the day, the space is fantastic. Incredible natural light, a bright and lively atmosphere, and a casual energy that makes you want to stick around. The hummus dishes are excellent, the salads are consistently fresh, and the service is warm and genuinely hospitable. There's nothing overly complicated about what Dizengoff does, and that's precisely the point. Great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and an experience that feels effortless rather than overly orchestrated. I love this place. It's the kind of restaurant that makes you want to come back regularly, not just save it for a special occasion. Sometimes, the less pretentious version really is the better one.

The five of us started with a mixed meze platter which had a sampling of spreads: eggplant, garlic/yogurt, hummus (chickpea), spicy tomato & pepper salad, Slavic potato salad and of course pita bread. My husband, daughter and I shared the mixed plate for two, which was plenty for the three of us. We ate beef kabobs, Chicken Adana (my favorite), chicken thighs, Turkish meatballs and lamb kabobs. Served with the most flavorful salad, sautéed vegetables and rice, the mixed plate is a great option if you haven't zeroed in on something specific. No corkage fee, helpful and pleasant staff, casual unhurried vibe .... I love this place!

We could have stopped here and I would have been thrilled. For mezze we had the wagyu tartare and Haloumi, the puffed buckwheat was a cool texture and much preferred the scheese to the beef. The beef unfortunately had a spice or flavor that overpowered everything. For the entree we had the lamb shoulder, meaty, lucious and the Persian rice in the side was delicious but we were stuffed! Ended with the dessert trio, all a great not too sweet bite but the blueberry konafi was our favorite.

That said, dining here today feels a little stiff, and the experience doesn't quite live up to the reputation. Take the opening course, for example. The hummus, small plates, and pita are perfectly good, but nothing on the table really stands out. There isn't a single item I couldn't point to somewhere else in the city and say I've had a better version. Even the pita doesn't arrive as that warm, oven fresh pillow of bread you hope for. From there, the main courses are consistently good. The chicken, steak, fish, and lamb are all delicious, but nothing feels particularly extraordinary. The service and hospitality are very good, though, and one part of the experience genuinely stands above the rest: the wine program. The selection of Middle Eastern varietals and lesser known wines is seriously cool, and there are some fantastic bottles here that make for excellent food drinking. Our wine stewardess was exceptional and easily the highlight of the evening. Ultimately, Zahav feels overpriced for what lands on the table. If you live in Philadelphia, it's not somewhere you're likely to visit regularly, especially when the city has so many other great options. And if you're saving a night out for a truly spectacular meal, I think you can do better. Zahav deserves its place in Philadelphia's dining history. I just don't think its current experience quite justifies the price or the hype.

We had…read morejust finished walking around the craft fair at Rittenhouse Square and were looking to get a bite to eat. It was my birthday and my partner wanted to find a nice restaurant. We had been to Greece two years ago and fell in love with the food. We saw Estia was close by, however, it was Saturday at 4 and we found there were no open reservations. We decided to walk over. The hostess was very gracious and not only said she could accommodate, but took us to a delightful booth. The venue is beautiful - the architecture - decorations - and the overall vibe is wonderful. I walked downstairs and was also very impressed with the private dining rooms. It didn't take us very long to decide what we were going to order - we were sharing all plates. My partner started with an Estia (signature) cocktail - the Meli. It's a delicious drink with vodka, passion fruit, almond liqueur, honey and lemon! I would like to mention the bread and hummus we had as a starter - the bread was excellent-warm, freshly baked with a superb creamy hummus. We decided to order the Crab cake and the Spanakopita for appetizers. The crab cake was made with jumbo lump crabmeat and had minimal fillers - I'm from Maryland and this was as good as any I've recently had. There was a Dijon aioli that was the perfect dip for the crab meat. The Spanakopita was also top notch - the crispy phyllo dough was excellent and the filling of spinach, leeks, scallions, dill and feta was perfect! For our main course, we ordered the Lamb Chops (of course!), and the Lobster Linguini. We were told the chops are Estia's signature dish and a must order. First rule of eating chops - you must pick up the chops to eat them - cutting the meat with a fork and knife will not provide the same effect with both the flavor and texture. My first bite was heavenly - the chops were cooked perfectly - which is a feat in itself as we both like our meat Medium - pink, not red. The chops were tender and juicy with a grill that accentuated the flavor of the meat. What a great dish! The chops came with very large, very delicious Greek style potato fries which had a nice crunch and a little cheese! Unfortunately, the Lobster Linguine did not meet our expectations - specifically, the lobster. My first bite of the lobster resulted in my chewing, and chewing, and chewing..... What a disappointment - while the sauce was very savory and the pasta was cooked perfectly, I couldn't chew the lobster and pushed the pieces to the side. There are many reasons why lobster is chewy and rubbery - overcooking is the most common. It was my birthday and our very gracious and delightful server brought a few little treats out. Overall, while the one dish was disappointing, the rest of the meal was great and we will be returning to Estia!

This time around we ordered many menu items to share once again. I definitely recommend this method with the way this menu is written! Trying both meat and seafood dishes, we have come to the conclusion that Almyra seems to do better with seafood than meat dishes, though this is not to say the meat dishes are bad. For dessert, my brother got the Budino again and my dad got the Baklava. The Baklava was unfortunately dry and hard, so while this is a classic Greek dessert I would opt for another dessert here. The dessert was made special, however, complete with a "Happy Birthday" design on the plate and a sparkler for my dad. The service was once again excellent. Our waitress was very attentive, upbeat, and helpful. Lastly, having come in the winter last time the restaurant was busy, but slightly more toned down. On this summer Saturday night the restaurant was very loud, which made it hard to hear conversation. This is a small thing, but something to keep in mind if you are looking for a more intimate dinner! We will definitely be back to Almyra again!

It's the perfect spot for a girls' night out, a work dinner, or a romantic date night. My only downside with the ambiance is that it gets VERY loud, so if you're looking for an intimate, quiet dinner where you can easily hold a conversation, keep that in mind. The service was excellent! Our waitress was incredibly helpful, patient, and attentive throughout the experience. She was happy to help us with our choices and made the dining experience feel welcoming and enjoyable. Good service always makes a difference, especially when dining with a group or trying a restaurant for the first time. For food, we ordered the lamb chops, short rib entrées, and filet mignon kebab. The potatoes were easily one of the highlights of the entire meal. They were TO DIE FOR and genuinely worth mentioning on their own! The kebabs were also delicious, and the filet mignon was a great choice if you're looking for something flavorful. The lamb chops and short rib entrées were pretty good, but they weren't quite as memorable as the potatoes and kebabs. Nothing was necessarily bad, but given how beautiful the restaurant is and the overall experience it creates, I was hoping the entrées would impress me a little more. On my next visit, I'd definitely try some different dishes to see what else stands out on the menu. Overall, Almyra is a gorgeous restaurant with an incredible aesthetic, great service, and a lively atmosphere. I'd recommend it for the vibes, especially if you're planning a special night out or dining with a group. Just be prepared for a louder environment! While some dishes were more memorable than others, the potatoes, kebabs, and attentive service were definite highlights. I'd come back to enjoy the atmosphere again and explore more of the menu!
