Been several times the food was excellent always like taking our company and our friends

So on the way home from my last trip to Daytona I stopped by this place to check out the Greek food scene in the area and Greektown came up on the yelp radar. I came in after the lunch rush and ordered a few things, all classic dishes though. There were successes and failures. Let's talk about the avgalemeno soup (egg and lemon soup). It was pretty good. This soup is hard to make without getting egg solids in the soup as it uses eggs in the recipe. It was well executed in my opinion . I ordered moussaka which is a classic and also the measure of a Greek restaurant. It was pretty damn good- the eggplant was not properly drained and the red sauce could have been a bit more plentiful but it didn't disappoint. The salad I ordered - a village salad- was actually quite good though they did skimp on the feta- a key component. The only thing I absolutely didn't like was the side of potatoes which could have used something extra. Pro tip- have your meal with a glass or retsina, the lifeblood of any proper taverna read more

I love finding yummy greek food wherever I go. Huge menu. Great wine list. We went late on a Saturday night without reservations and didnt have to wait for a table. Super fresh ingredients and big portions. Crisp veggies on the lightly dressed greek salad. The pita is served warm with super light and creamy tatziki. The house bread service comes with an addictive red wine vinegar and oregano dipping oil. The greek burger with feta was out of this world! read more

Hands down one of the best meals we've had in DB. Along with the food described below, the ambiance was relaxing and the service was wonderful. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and told us everything is house made, using old family recipes. We started with the hummus and pita. OH MY- the hummus is lemony, creamy and perfect, zingy with garlic and somehow tasting light and fluffy at the same time. The pita is precisely toasted; crispy upon biting then yielding a soft interior. All house made. The spanakopita is a gigantic square, buttery crispy phyllo and spinach redolent with dill and quality feta. Amazing. I had a veggie sampler: crispy-skinned wedges of skin on potatoes, salted and seasoned with herbs. Crackly and salty just yum. Peas stewed with tomatoes, onions, mint and dill til they practically melted yet kept their fresh crunch. Green beans sautéed in tomato with onion, every last one eaten. One friend had the pasticio. It was a tremendous, well layered masterpiece. Perfect bechemel, gentle with nutmeg. I usually don't eat meat but made an exception to taste. As good as it gets. Really. Other friend had the chicken kabob. It had a two skewers full of well seasoned and grilled chicken, along with rice, green beans and pita. His only complaint was the pilaf was plain. We finished with Ambrosia- baklava with shredded phyllo on top, Creme anglaise on bottom. Crackly phyllo, soaked with butter and syrup, plenty of nut mixture in between. Nice the pasty has two layers of nut filling rather than more typical single. I wasn't even in the mood for Greek food but am really glad my friend had a craving for spinach pie. Happily recommend this restaurant and hope to visit a few more times before we leave. read more

Nice place... Great hummus and lamb... seasoned well and great taste... service is usually GREAT but they have their moments to drop the ball... read more

Good food with good service. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. The Resturant was clean and they cared that you were pleased with your food. The soup was not to my liking, no fault of theirs. The server did not charge me for the soup. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is I feel the would be better served to have some mixed appetizers and entrees for newbie's to sample the food. As for my wife and I, we like a little of this and a little of that. It's the Gemini in me I suppose. Thumbs up to Greektown Taverna. read more

Best Greek food in area. This is the go to spot for a evening out on the town. Great selection for appetizers, drinks, entrees, and deserts. great authentic Greek food. Service was tops. Thanks for a great night out. read more

Awesome food! Being from Chicago we have our own Greek Town. I have yet to find any good Greek restaurant in Orlando. Then I ran across this gem. Service was great. I have also been to greece. This comes as close as it gets. Will return again!! read more

To be fair, my wife ordered and enjoyed the prawns and they were good. I, however, ordered the leg-of-lamb and it was cooked to well-done. Nobody eats lamb well-done. We just moved here from California and I've never been served well-done lamb in my life. I'm a 63 year old Greek/Italian who loves to cook. Lamb should never be served past medium, and medium-rare is more appropriate. This was hard and dry. Not recommend . read more

This place is worth driving a little off of i95 for! If you need a fresh and flavorful meal this would be a great choice. We started off with the hummus and toasted pita bread, best hummus that I've had on my travels. The gyro meat was moist and tasty. I am a big fan of moussaka but couldn't decide so we went with the Greektown platter (PASTITSIO, MOUSSAKA & DOLMADES) and I am so glad we did. I discovered that I love pastitsio and dolmades even more! They also have a small selection of Greek beers. read more

Great menu with many Greek options to choose from with moderate prices. Service was attentive. Five were dining this evening and each of our meals were outstanding. I highly recommend. read more

We were on vacation in the area and tried this place on a whim for lunch one day. So glad we did! I cannot say enough positive things about this restaurant. First and foremost, the food speaks for itself and was the star of the show. Everything we ordered was fresh, seasoned perfectly, and absolutely delicious! Our waiter (I think his name is Ricky) was a very pleasant young man who provided us with excellent service. You hardly find that these days, so kudos to him! We learned from him that the restaurant had been taken over by new owners in June of last year and they made some changes. Whatever they did, the formula is working! Don't be fooled by the location or outside of the restaurant, because on the inside it is a real gem. The place is decorated very tastefully and just really inviting when you walk in. For me, one of the biggest selling points regarding a restaurant's ambiance is their choice of background music. It's almost a joke among my family and friends with me where they know I will walk right out of a restaurant if the music is too loud and/or obnoxious (and I'm not even that old! LOL) The Greektown Taverna was playing soft, soothing music to enjoy our meal. Note to owners: Please do not change this point...ever! :) We loved this restaurant so much, we ended up coming back the very next day for lunch again! Go visit this restaurant as soon as you can. read more

This is labeled "greek" but the food is not genuine. The owner's and the chef are NOT greek. That makes a difference.

I loved the dips every one of them! Just would have liked my food more if it was all the way hot. It was semi cold/warm:/ but other than that I would come here again! read more

Great Greek food! We had hummus for an appetizer. I had the taverna sized moussaka which was perfect with horta. Yum! I would definitely come back if I lived here. Great service and very nice atmosphere. Nice wine list too of Greek wines. read more

Rude man checking in spoiled the entire evening. His attitude put a damper on everything else.

I've had gyros in many different states and the gyros here are DEEEEEEEEELICIOUS! I ask for them to be made to my specifications (add cucumber and extra tomatoes and onions) every time and I'm never disappointed! YuuuuuuMMy! read more

Wow. Thats all I can really say! The food was PHENOMENAL. the chicken kebabs....oh my...I have no idea what they did to that chicken but it was still singing a sweet melody in my mouth. Everything we tried was just fantastic. TRY ANYTHING and you will be happy. read more

I declare this my favorite authentic Greek restaurant. Our server Petros was outstanding. From start to finish this was a great meal. We started with the saganaki and it was perfection, and a large portion. The bread was soft and very fresh served with real butter. I never order a gyros sandwich but I did and it was the best sandwich ever. The meat was perfectly seasoned, the pita was fresh and soft. Every single bite was so good. Hubby had the chicken and pork kabobs with potatoes and zucchini. He loved it as much as i loved my gyro. We can't wait to visit again. Yum read more

We happened to see some baklava on television and decided to find a local place to get some. Ironically, none of us even got it (except to go). The kids were quite pleased with their pita pizza and the hubby had a great gyro. I had the pastitio (sp?)and my kids ate more than I did. That's HUGE! While my kids are pretty well versed in ethnic foods but I never know how they'll take new options. My son ate most of my peas and even some of the zucchini. This seems to be a local place where the locals actually go, and that's a big deal I'm my eyes. Our server, Scotty, was great and made good recommendations for us. We will definitely be back! read more

Super disappointed. Went in with my boyfriend telling him how great the food is and this time it was awful. First with the salad which we both couldnt even eat without chopping everything up ourselves. Complained to the server who didn't say anything about it to us. Then we got our meals, mine was fine, just gyro and rice. But his sides where so disappointing. The roasted potatoes that where so damn big and tastes like steak fries. Next to the actual French fries that where all broken and soggy. The. As we left we saw people with fries that looked like actual fries, not broken or soggy they looked how fries should have looked. We will definitely not come back & we will go to DeLand to Santorinis. I'd rather wait 40 minutes for a table and the food be perfect then go somewhere that is a hit or miss. read more

Pretty solid Greek food. The green salad had generous portions of feta cheese and a light but tasty dressing. The Skordalia was a new dish for me. Similar to hummus, this potato and garlic spread was wicked tasty and the homemade pita was really good. The chicken kabab was juicy and flavorful. Atmosphere is a little diner like but the food is worth the trip. read more

Amazing!! The octopus was so tender and the calamari wasn't heavy, it was perfect! The staff was exceptional as well! A definite must try! read more

Amazing spot! This young owner is crushing it. Get the ambrosia for desert. You won't regret it! I'd post a picture but I ate it all too fast. read more

This restaurant was a very pleasant surprise! In a town of fried food burgers and biker bars(not that I mind these) Greek town was a good authentic Greek alternative! It's hard to be a traveler and try to find authentic food in your local area but definitely one of the closest I've found! Wife and I started with the Spanakopita which was very delicious and good portion to share. We also tried the Dolmades( grape leaves) "deliciousness"! For my main dish "Kota Mykonos" ( oven roasted chicken breast stuffed w/ baby spinach, feta, fresh dill, scallions, onions w/ white wine- lemon reduction)! We ended with a Baklava which was decent but I really got spoiled through my travels in Greece. One must try the Bougatsa! Outstanding finish especially paired with reasonable prices and the great service from Petros and the staff, great find for date or a group gathering! GREAT GREEK HOSPITALITY! read more

Enjoyed a really good lunch on our first visit. The gyero had loads of tender meat and came with fresh frys or one of about 6 other sides. While waiting for our food, we were served fresh bread and an oil dipping sauce. Good attentive service and an upscale atmosphere. read more

Consistently excellent Greek Mediterranean food. The restaurant itself is immaculate. They have a great friendly staff. And wonderful selections on their menu cooked to perfection. It's been a weekly go to place for us for several years read more

3 years strong! Can't believe it took us 3 years before we found time to stop here. Ate here with friends on Thursday and it was so good that I insisted that we go back with a second set of friends Saturday night. My husband and I shared the sampler. Can't say there's a favorite because each was tasty. I really didn't think I would like the eggplant because I'm not an eggplant person, but I am now. The baklava is not saturated in honey and the crust is light/flaky. Great flavor! If you have not been here, go! Don't wait! Find the time! Enjoy! read more

Great food for vegetarians and meat eaters. Great service. Friendly. Try the Spanakopita if your a vegetarian.

Food was just okay. Had lollipop lamb chops and they were overcooked. Asked for medium rare. Waiter never cleared our table even though we had finished our meal and stayed seated talking to our friends. When we left our dirty plates were still on the table. read more

Love this place. The food is awesome and so is the staff. Everything I've gotten is delish! Love the desert and the gyros but they have a chicken breast that is out of this world! read more

One of the best and most authentic greek restaurants in the area. A great selection of entrees and light fare menu items. Stopped in for lunch, started with an appituzer not sure of the name but it was a fried phillo dough stuffed with feta cheese and accompioned with honey. I had the gyro trio which was plenty filling and my partner had the gyro dip with roasted potatoes, said it was also very good. Would recommend to anyone! read more

Finally tried this place a week ago! I've been hearing how amazing it is for years but just never stopped in, but boy am I glad I did and I will definitely be back! PlentY of vegetarian options for me and the potato wedges were killer !!! read more

Tried Skordalia for the first time here and MAN was it good!! Though they don't serve alcohol (we were hoping for some Ouzo!) they do have a nice selection of Greek beer & wine. Large menu with tons of options, even for picky vegetarians! We had great service and great food, definitely stopping in here more often. read more

We used to frequent on Wednesday's every week. The feta and pita is delish. Actually everything we've gotten is amazing. Definitely a place to go for good food and friendly staff. read more

This is the real McCoy So glad to find a place like this! Totally good service Super clean and great early birds I sure will be back! read more

This review is really a 2.5 stars. I'd like to assume that this was an "off" time for the restaurant. We love this place so we ordered 4 spanakopitas, 3 orders of grape leaves, and 4 chicken lemon soups. The grape leaves were so over cooked that the meat was rubbery. The soup smelled of unseasoned, boiled, bad chicken. Unfortunately we had to dispose of both of these, which was basically half the cost of our meal. read more
