Omg , we were cruising down Rte 1 and getting hungry.... We saw Ithaki and decided ok let's stop here and try it out. Much to our delight the food and atmosphere were fantastic! I got the falafel hummus small plate and my husband got the chicken souvlaki small plate and we shared the Greek salad . Everything was so fantastic we were so happy and left nothing on the plates . We finished up with the bakalava and American coffee.Wow ... we will be back . They serve breakfast and lunch too read more

Walking into the restaurant is inviting, beautiful, clean. From the hostess to the waitress and all the wait staff, everyone was accommodating, warm, just wonderful! The food was amazing! I truly wasn't sure if I was going to like the cuisine but everything was absolutely delicious! I would highly recommend this establishment! read more

... Beautiful space ... we loved the location in Ipswich but this space is stunning ... beautiful flowers throughout the space ... comfort and seating ... Authentic Greek food! We always order grape leaves, tzatziki & pita & keftedes. So delicious! He orders souvlaki ... I usually get pastitsio or gyro! Dessert is a must: Galaktoboureko. We share it but ... he eats most of it. Lol! If you're looking for authenticity... this is the place to go! read more

Amazing food, great service, nice atmosphere . The mushroom pappardelle was 10/10. Best I've ever had.

terrible service, counting children who didn't order a meal a person so she could automatically charge tip, and blah food that took over an hr to come out, in an empty restaurant. Would definitely not return nor recommend. read more

Food was great here and the service was top notch. I will definitely be coming back here for sure!

Love, love, love this place. The food is delicious and the service is great! In fact, I will be going there tomorrow night to celebrate my birthday! P.S. The atmosphere is very pretty And warm and cozy read more

Completely fake Greek food and over priced ordered pretty much 10 different things off the menu and everything we ordered was completely terrible the lamb is a complete joke the moussaka was terrible and everything we ordered was completely dry $320 without any alcoholic beverages for a family of five and we went home hungry place is absolutely terrible read more

The food is fantastic. They have also done an amazing job with the décor-contemporary but not ostentatious. The soundproofing also makes for a very nice ambiance for talking quietly within our table of 4 even I. A very busy restaurant. Lastly, I want to say how wonderful our waitress, Josselin, was. She was clearly busy, but so warm and friendly, and extremely efficient. This was actually my 4th visit and every time it has been exquisite. read more

Ithaki Mediterranean Restaurant - Duck breast - Mediterranean Near Me - Peabody, Massachusetts

See all

Hello, ate here a couple of weeks ago while in town. Everything about it was impeccable, the wine selection had a full menu page of selections. So many in fact that I had to try 2 or 3 different Cabernets. Started with the Babaganoush, excellent and lots of it; so much so that it came home with me. The Mediterranean salad was fabulous with an amazing ginger based dressing. Nuts, berries, feta and olives. For the main course I had a spanakopita (2 good sized servings on the plate). Also delicious. Just needed to ask for a few lemon wedges as I am accustomed to eating this dish in a Greek restaurant. All in all, absolutely fabulous. Can't wait to go back again soon.

Wow! We had Ithaki cater an event for us yesterday, and we couldn't be more pleased. The food was amazing and Petro was so easy to work with. He is truly a gifted chef that puts love into his food. The presentation of the Greek salad was like no other. Everything was meticulously cut, neat and well seasoned. The chicken kebob was moist and the salmon melted in your mouth. We also ordered the lamb youvetsi that was tender with perfectly cooked orzo. They exceeded all expectations and the passion for his profession is so evident in his food. read more

The chef is simply amazing! The restaurant beautiful. The lamb chops were seasoned by an expert and grilled to perfection! The lamb sauce was sublime. The baba ghanoush was charred to perfection. The tzatziki was perfectly balanced with the right amount of herb, cucumber, yogurt and seasoning! This is the new place to get Mediterranean in Boston! No need to drive into the city, it won't compare, trust me! read more

Really nice place. This was previously "Our Place" and before that, Carrabba's Italian. The owners made just enough changes to the space that it looks completely different from the previous restaurant. We had drinks and dinner at the bar. We were blown away by the village dip (comes with bread with every meal) and the Half Chicken. We came here on a date night and it was not a cheap date by any means, but the great food and service were well worth the price. I wouldn't bring picky kids or teens here, as I'm not sure there is enough on the menu to appeal to the likes of my son. We'll be back, but just for date night, not a family dinner. read more

Food was great, menu was authentic, the waitress was new and still training, but tried her best to answer all our questions. Management style felt like they were a bit overwhelmed and working out the kinks of opening a new restaurant, but all in all - I'd go again. One thing - it's not kid friendly. No changing tables and they took forever to find the high chairs. The ambiance isn't kid friendly either. More of a date night or friends' dinner vibe. read more

I've been for dinner and breakfast.. both ok Went in alone at 430ish to the bar to eat.. bartender very ubrupt..not friendly .. got an app to go because i was not comfortable.. thank u for the bread and dip, but omg the garlic was overwhelming.. this is usually delicious.. just saying.. bad day I guess.. read more

So disappointing. The old location in Ipswich had everything. New location has no ambience, is noisy, poor service and the food is nowhere as good as it was. Bit like eating in an ocean state job lot with white marble walls. Surprisingly busy though. As if there are no other options nearby. read more

had the lamb with orzo best I've ever had the wife had the salmon I she said it was delicious we had Chris for our waiter he's the best very fast and knowledgeable about the menu will definitely be going back read more

Wow, great new find - I had a fig martini which had great depth (and half a fresh fig along with a Luxardo cherry), a delightful fattoush salad and braised lamb shank. My husband had a tenderloin special which came with a unique twist on ratatouille, which was molded and wrapped in a zucchini strip with a slab of potato on top. Dessert was Galactobouriko, warm vanilla custard wrapped in phyllo with a honey glaze and cherries - outstanding. We arrived pretty early on a Friday (4:15) and I was surprised to find a couple of large parties and a few other tables already occupied - the one issue here is acoustics (tile floor) and seating - we were initially offered a table tucked in a corner but only 2 feet from a party of 8 when there was lots of more private space available - we were seated elsewhere, but as the restaurant began to fill up, the noise levels increase - another couple seated next to us as we were preparing to leave also asked to be moved because of noise levels but were told there wasn't any other place available. read more

Simply FABULOUS. Spent the entire week in Salem and one dining experience after the next was disappointing & had concluded that Salem was no dining destination. THEN, I found Ithaki & all was changed. All the Greek classics wonderfully prepared and presented in true authentic fashion. Grilled Octopus was the best I've had and the Saganaki was a good as Greektown in Chicago. I think the hostess was part owner & simply lovely. Staff was friendly & professional. In an area where a nice dinner is a challenge--this place is an absolute gem and a must try. I'll be back next time I'm in the neighborhood and can't wait. read more

We have gone there a few times over the last couple months. This place is consistently good. Their food, desserts, drinks, etc. Staff is very professional and attentive. Highly recommend for a nice relaxing meal with a Sangria! read more

Tasty yum very nice food was good and tasty yum reccomens if you Greek tasty food definitely recommend

Been here a number of times on the weekend , but decided to take advantage of not well publicized Tuesday night dollar oyster special they have. Not disappointed, the oysters were large, tasty and served on a tray of ice. Then we split a Caesar's Salad (excellent) followed by a lamb kabob for the wife and clams and pasta for me. Everything was very good but what really set it apart was our server Elise. She was very attentive, was informed on gluten sensitivity my wife has and spaced the servings out perfect. Highly recommended if never ate here before. read more

Impressive premises! Food authentic Greek. One time visit isn't enough to appreciate the restaurant! So we are going back very soon! Nick S. read more

Food was good but we waited a very long time for it and it was on a Tuesday night....not busy at all. But the real kicker was my wife and friend ordered martinis and asked that the dirty ice from the shaker come with the drinks on the side. They got the ice but was charged $2.00 for it. We didn't notice the charges, (wife and friend ordered another) until we got home and reviewed the receipt. We spent $340.00 there that night and these (don't want to use the word I'm thinking of) people had the nerve to charge $2.00 x 2 for ice that would have gone down the drain. Every restaurant we've ever been to will gladly give you the ice and never has any place charged for it. Ask me if I'll ever eat there again or recommend the place to anyone. We will not and I am passing this story on to anyone who will listen and the many people that I have told won't go there because of this. So keep up the good work Ithaki because you are a piece of work. P.S. My posted review says I'm from San Fransisco but I'm from Danvers, MA read more

Fabulous Greek and Mediterranean food. I've been eating here for about 27 years, in the previous and new location. I have never had anything that wasn't delicious. Food is truly authentic Greek. I highly recommend checking out Ithaki. read more

Ithaki Mediterranean Restaurant - Beautiful presentation of one of the dinner entrees at Ithaki. - Mediterranean Near Me - Peabody, Massachusetts

Horrible experience. Awful food and slow service. I ordered the Moussaka and Baklava and had explosive diarrhea later that day. Did not enjoy. Overall I did not enjoy my experience here and I would nit recommend this place to anyone. read more

Food was excellent nice atmosphere friendly service. Can't wait to go back again with friends.

Made my wife & I feel like we shouldn't be there. Waitress was not attentive.

This is one of my favorite restaurants! It is what made me fall in love with greek food. Always delicious. Drinks are always great. Service amazing. Especially the host, she is outstanding! I've recommended this place to many friends not from here but are always looking for authentic greek restaurants and every person i have recommended it to say they were amazed. read more

Breakfast options are quite varied and range from tradition American-breakfast with some Greek inspired option too. Omelette was exceptional as was the home fries. I highly recommend Ithaki! read more

Ithaki Mediterranean Restaurant - Tomato and spinach omelette- home fries and bacon. Absolutely delicious! So fresh and well executed- I highly recommend Ithaki ! - Mediterranean Near Me - Peabody, Massachusetts

The food was beyond incredible. So authentic given our recent trip to Greece. The service was a bit slow, but we made the best of it. Would highly recommend might sit at the bar next time. read more

There was a group of us: 3 adults, 2 young children. When we told the Host we had 2 young kids, I could feel the internal "eye-roll". it wasn't an obvious gesture, but this restaurant clearly is not "child-friendly". They do not have a kids menu. Really? Lamb was skimpy, felafel was dry & tasteless, octopus was good & kids burgers were way too huge & expensive. (but no kids menu, so what could we do?) For what we paid, I'd say find another lunch place. Not worth it, & I didn't appreciate feeling unwelcome. read more

Went here for the first time today and was pleasantly surprised. Unassuming location on rt 1 next to a Holiday Inn, but once inside it is charming. Bright, cheery, and welcoming. The hostess was very friendly as was our bartender/waitress as we decided to have lunch at the bar. We both had lamb souvlaki. I'd give it 3.5 stars. Yummy, but could have been slightly more tender/juicy. The tzatziki it came with was super fresh and tasty though. The eggplant appetizer we split was out of this world. Big enough that it could have been lunch and just soooo good. I will definitely be back! I spotted about 10 other dishes on the lunch menu I'd love to try. Also, they have a lot of gluten free options (all marked on the menu with "GF") which I appreciated as I am celiac. read more

I've been going to Ithaki once a summer over the last five years. This was the first disappointing meal. They were out of the bronzini although it was inly 6:30 pm. The avgolemono soup was watery with very little chicken or rice. The calamari was so salty to be inedible. The lamb souvlakia skewers was one skewer and skimpy although delicious. The galaktoboureko was good but too sweet. The waitress was hard to understand and gave me the wrong order and didn't correct the receipt for her mistake. Won't be going back. read more

Service and food was amazing! Best Greek food I've ever had. Service was attentive and helpful. I don't leave reviews ever.. but this place deserves it! read more

We had a great Greek dinner. Great service & had fun talking about our family area in Greece. If you are looking for a Grecian experience & wonderful Greek food, this is your place. Beautiful restaurant & spotless. We were staying next door at the Holiday Inn, so it was convenient. But if we ever come back to Boston again, we would eat here for sure. read more
