We are Greek and were in the mood for some good Greek food. So we came here ,Owner/hostess was very friendly. Told us that everything was (which means homemade/home recipes) and you couldn't go wrong with anything. First we ordered the Feta Phyllo. It was good. Next my wife order the moussaka which the waiter said it was the most popular on the menu, I order the chicken souvlaki and we order a kotopoulo for my son. 1 bite into the moussaka and my wife said it was horrible. She couldn't even take another bite. The chicken souvlaki was just ok. My sons food was the best, chicken was soft and flavorful. Two stars for friendly staff and good ambiance. read more

Typical Greek food with upscale flair. Excellent service and nice atmosphere. Do not miss the take out dessert case.

Came here expecting to eat some authentic Greek food with my family in town. I heard of all the great reviews and thought that it must be good. We ordered the feta and olives which was very good. We also ordered the eggplant appetizer which was ok but had no flavor. Three of us ordered the moussaka and all of us agreed that it was horrible and had zero flavor. Husband and daughter had the gyro and they both agreed that the gyros at our usual Greek takeout place was better and with much more flavor. It's a nice restaurant ambience wise but food wise it's two thumbs down. read more

Incredible food. Very fun and tasteful Greek decorations inside. The waiter was kind and helpful, he made sure the Greek frape wasn't too bitter for us. Probably the best tzatziki we have ever had. And the portions were humongous, the Kephi Grinder could probably feed three! There is also a large case of Greek desserts like baklava and orange cake, as well as a gift shop type area with house olive oils, olives, etc. read more

Love Greek food and after reading the reviews, we decided to come here just before heading home from Busch Gardens. Walked in and the place smelled delicious!! As we walked to our table, we passed the dessert displays and I immediately wanted one of each. The kids ordered chicken kabobs, husband had beef, & I had a gyro. Everything was flavored so well, and the meat was cooked perfectly. Took home some baklava and Black Forest cake - definitely will be coming back our next trip down to Williamsburg! read more

I LOVE THE DECOR! The aesthetics of this establishment was very well planned from the choices of chairs to the napkins and lighting. The only downside was locating the restrooms. Was a little confused which could easily be fixed with signage relocated. The staff is very friendly and we were greeted immediately as we walked in. I loved that the hostess explained where the food derived from and the location in Greece. Waiters were very attentive and helpful. They brought the entrees and satisfied other requests promptly. We ordered the grilled octopus and keftedes that latex on top of one of my favorite greens arugula. I ordered the moussaka and my significant other ordered a grilled fish that was pleasantly larger than we anticipated. The food was great with a nice variety. Loved the desert section. We ordered the chocolate "Mouse." Overall, 4.8 stars but whom round up. Just needs to fix signs to restrooms and make more visible and add a diaper changing table to accommodate families. read more

Ordered takeout due to COVID, and service was excellent. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful - the exterior, not so much. The food was pretty average. It was good because we were hungry and didn't really care, but overall it wasn't the best. The meat in the gyros was tough and dry. It wasn't typical sliced gyro meat. Luckily both the beef and lamb flavors were able to come through. The crispy calamari was chewy, and the batter was not crispy. The meatballs from the hot menu were good until we found one that was not completely cooked. The only food that was worth 5 stars were the french fries - they were SO GOOD. Good for a quick fix (food was ready in 10 minutes), but there are better Greek places out there. read more

Ambiance was amazing and service was great. I am sorry to say that the food was not so good.

We love going to this Restaurant, the Food is authentic,fresh and very good plus the service . Desserts are the best! read more

I got a to go order from here yesterday and I ordered the Greek salad with chicken and the gyro. I also ordered a piece of baklava and chocolate cake. The salad was okay however the amount of lettuce was pathetic, very small amount, more chicken than lettuce. The gyro was truly the worst I have ever had. I'm Armenian and love Greek food, this was not it. Chewy, fatty meat I couldn't even eat and it tasted old. Not the traditional carve off the block but some sort of chopped up strips. The baklava was the driest I have ever had, saw dust, no syrup at all. I called and the manager refunded for the gyro and didn't offer anything else. Would never recommend this place. Someone needs to teach them how to cook real Greek food and it's overpriced which if it had been good I wouldn't have cared. read more

Took a group of girlfriends for their first visit here and everyone agreed they will return. The decore was casual chic, the food prepared perfectly and the menu had something for everyone. Service was excellent. Give thus a try - it should be a local favorite.. read more

Where to start. The expansive menu was a nice surprise for a Greek restaurant! They also had a huge dessert case. After a seriously delicious and well-presented meal, we left with a box of dessert and a bottle of their olive oil. A must when in Williamsburg. read more

Their food is so delicious! But when I worked there, it was not my favorite ..mostly due to Greeks being more loud and aggressive than I was used to, but it is OK. I didn't like working there so I left but the food is very delicious and you should definitely go and try Greek kitchen if you never had it before.!!! and it is a little pricey. But definitely worth the money.! read more

I loved this place. Everything we ordered came out perfect. Grilled octopus was especially good if you are feeling adventurous.

Everything we tried was delicious! Ouzo martini and Scordalia (GREEK PENICILLIN) followed by Moussaka and the Greek burger. Baklava was just right and the pastries looked incredible. We are even taking home some olive oil from their farm in Greece! read more

We tried Kephi Greek Kitchen during a long weekend in Williamsburg. All in all it warrants an OK, nothing more, nothing less. We started off with the melitzanosalata appetizer. This eggplant appetizer had the potential for greatness, but was just missing something, perhaps more garlic, to make it stand out. The portion size was fine, with plenty of pita to share, but it needed that special something to make me say "wow" instead of "ok". My pastichio entree was close to being a failure. I suspect it had been sitting around for a while, because it was served barely lukewarm and it was dry, dry, dry . There was too much clumpy pasta and not enough ground beef. I would have preferred to pay more for a serving half the size, but with more ground beef, less pasta, and hot out of the oven. My companion's dolmades was uninspired and the accompanying fasolakia was missing the red sauce promised on the menu. We also ordered horta with our entrees. The greens, like the rest of the meal, was served lukewarm and needed a squeeze of lemon plus salt and pepper to be edible. The horta rates as an OK too, mainly because I could doctor them up enough to eat them. For dessert, Kephi offers two display cases with a variety of sweets. You go to the display case, pick something you like, then your server brings it to you. I thought most of the desserts looked a bit wilted, but my dining companion wanted to try the stuffed baklava. Other than being built on a phyllo foundation, it didn't really seem much like baklava, but, I'm not Greek dessert chef so what do I know? It was, wait for it, "OK" but I think if we had ordered it the day it was prepared, it might have been great. The phyllo was soggy and as far as I could tell, there were no layers of nuts or the accompanying rosewater drizzle characteristic of baklava. However, nestled in the center was just a bit of custard that was fantastic and made digging through the soggy phyllo worth the effort. Service was good and I thought the dining room was very nice. When I think about our overall experience, it was probably an OK value too. read more

After enjoying a day at Colonial Williamsburg we found this wonderful Greek restaurant. We were able to eat outside during this Covid time with a nice view of the flower garden. My friend and I enjoyed three dishes.; the Greek salad, spanakopita, and the salmon dinner. Everything we had was delicious. While inside for a couple moments noticed the nice interior and the bakery items. The server was very nice as well. read more

The decor was fantastic. The staff was kind and helpful, warm and professional. And the food. The food! My son's tiropita was delicious. My daughter's chicken was delicious. (The concept that they give the kids real food rather than frozen chicken fingers and burgers is great!) My wife's gyro was great. The fries on the side were potatoey and crispy and well seasoned. But I got the lamb shank. I got the lamb shank. The pasta with it was perfectly done. The diced tomatoes in the pasta were lively and vivid. And the lamb shank was the best lamb I've ever had in any context. I immediately had to share it with the other three, which only served to make them want more and more read more

Over priced I'd say but nice. It won't be on my list to return to when I visit. I wasn't wowed. Nice ambiance service ok - if you want dessert and coffee go here tho'. Epic desserts read more

The food was absolutely incredible. One of the best Greek restaurants I have eaten at, even including Greece! The wine, the appetizers, the main course, and the desserts were all perfect. Also, the service was excellent. Highly recommended! read more

We tried this on a whim wanting a sit down instead of to-go Greek experience. We started with spanakopita. My wife got a chicken gyro and I ordered a pastitsio. We agreed that everything was under seasoned to the point of being bland. The spanakopita desperately needed salt and my pastitsio had all of the seasoning hiding in the bottom layer only. It was rather disappointing and pricey for food with little to no flavor. Personally, I'd recommend the less expensive and more flavorful Spartan Gyros nearby. read more

Service, food and ambiance are all top notch. We stopped in for heavy apps and drinks. The food was delicious. The tzatziki is fabulous. Yes, the condiment if you will. Lol. The spinach pie was flaky and tasty. The grape leaves and humus were as equally delicious. We will be back for dinner! A great Greek place to add to our annual rotation when in town for the grand illumination. read more

Prices are high for the quality of food. Dessert is very expensive at $9 for a small slice of cake. I was charged for 2 desserts but only ordered one. I have to close out the check to get a refund or get another dessert. This was the exact same thing that happened the first time I was here as well but with an appetizer- seems like if they think you are here visiting they charge additional items. I won't be back and thought I would let others know to check their bill carefully or go somewhere else read more

Excellent Greek restaurant. Made reservations but our group of four showed up early and we were seated immediately. We had gyros and souvlakis which were generous and well prepared but the entrees coming out of the kitchen looked excellent also. There was a dessert case at the entrance with delicious looking Greek desserts. Excellent service and reasonable prices. read more

After a long day, we decided to have some greek style food for a late lunch. The restaurant was very clean, staff wore masks and there was an enticing case of desserts as you enter! The decorations were very tastefully done. To start, we had the lemon chicken soup and it was delish! We both had the gyro and fries. The fries were very crispy, hot and very good and the gyro was good, but the meat was a little dry. Our waiter was very attentive, pleasant and quick. A pleasant lunch! read more

Omg, this place is absolutely delicious. All the food we tasted today was delicious! We started off with the saganaki. It had wonderful taste and texture. Everyone in our group enjoyed it very much! It was our grandmas 96th birthday, and they were kind enough to offer us a slice of their orange yogurt cake. I never would have tried this if it were up to me, but it surprised me that now I feel like I need it in my life. The cake itself is a bit crumbly but so flavourful, with a sweet crunchy drizzle on top. I ordered the whole branzini and was not disappointed. The fish was a good portion (I had to share it with my husband because it was too much for me to finish!) it was cooked to perfection and perfectly seasoned and I definitely would never be able to make this at home. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone! On our way out, we had a look at the dessert display and they have such a great variety, I definitely need to come back and try more! The service in the bar was wonderful. The bartender was super friendly and very approachable. Our waitress in the dining room was hot and cold - I get that we were a bit slow when deciding on whether we were ready to order or not.. But I don't think that turning around and walking away without saying anything was the appropriate response. Overall, I'm definitely coming back here! read more

My kids love Kephi so when my daughter and her bestie came up to visit from their OBX summer job, they immediately suggested it for dinner. They have a beautiful dessert case right when you walk in and so always wish I could just eat their dessert first as I'm always to full afterwards. I usually get their gyro or gyro plate but when we walked in I saw many people eating a lamb shank. Apparently, it's a signature dish. Well, it sure did not disappoint. It was tender and juicy and very flavorful. It came on a huge bed of spaghetti. I would have preferred maybe a lemon type sauce or a rice type side dish with it but it was still good. My daughter and her friend got the appetizer plate and the spanikopita. My son got a gyro and the lemon rice soup. My bestie got a Greek salad. Everyone enjoyed their food but I think I got the best entree. I think everyone agreed about that one. Did we get dessert? We were so full but we got the rice pudding and the baklava. Both were excellent. I want to try a slice of cake next time!! read more
