The menu selection is extensive with daily specials to boot. Dinner portions are generous and in the 10 to 13 EUR range. Service is a little slow at times, as there were only two servers, both had their hands full, running around as quickly as they could. I ordered the grilled calamari, which comes with a side of rice and steamed veggies. I substituted my rice with a side salad. The calamari were tender and not greasy, although I would have preferred more grill marks. The veggies were surprisingly al dente, albeit the typical previously frozen mix of broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. I was relieved to find my vegetables were neither overcooked nor drowned in butter, as is so often the case in Germany. Dad ordered a pork braised in a red sauce with potatoes, which he enjoyed. The pork was tender and the sauce had an almost Moroccan spice mix of cinnamon and paprika. The traditional Greek salad is $8 and large for European standards, but too small as an entree by itself. Desserts are not very Greek, think roasted apples with walnuts and honey, or chocolate souffle. An entire menu is dedicated to ice cream sundaes, if banana splits and the like are your thing. I went Greek with Galaktoboureko, served with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. It was delicious, but the puff pastry to custard ratio seemed a bit off. I would have liked a little more custard, and the custard was firmer than I am used to. Different but enjoyed it very much. Free Ouzo shots before you hit the road, a nice gesture. I highly recommend this place, it is worth a trip on the S-Bahn and conveniently located right next to the Gruenau station.

The food is perfect! Not too heavy and everything on the plate has a different taste. I notice in a…read morelot of Greek restaurants everything on the grill plate tastes the same...well, not here! Fantastic salade on the side. Would have given 5 stars if it wasn't that the family was too busy with eachother and quite loud. The waiter missed a few things because of it. But all in all: good price, great food!
