Lamb shank- fork tender and so well seasoned.

It's been a while since we ate in the restaurant. Their takeout family meals are so good and generous we usually get those. We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday, and although the restaurant was busy, service was as friendly and welcoming that it felt like we were the only customers. Because of the layout of the restaurant, even busy, it's quiet enough to easily have conversations. We started with the tzatziki, creamy and garlicky, with lovely fresh pita. For our mains, we had the boneless leg of lamb, the lamb shank, and the shrimp with pasta. Both the leg of lamb and the shank were so tender, delicious, and perfectly spiced, and the shrimp was cooked beautifully. The shrimp and lamb shank were served with a lightly sauced spaghetti, with a tiny hit of heat at the end. The leg of lamb came with vegetables and potatoes, and was plated beautifully. Portions are generous but get some house-made desserts to take home. This restaurant is just a delight. It feels like the best of an old fashioned family place, but with high standards that are more than met.

Service was spot on with Husein, Thank You Husein! Started with caramel Apple martini's and holy moly....excellent! Tsaziki and it was amazeballs! My wife had the lemon orzo soup and Greek salad and it was spot on, fresh and very yummy. I had the Greek burger with rice and a side salad...absolutely delish! The wife and I were stuffed and no room for deserts.

Pasta Kotopoulo
Andy G.

We have driven by this place so many times and never stopped....until today. We wanted something different. The inside is so nice! At first I thought there was a dress code and I was concerned given I was wearing shorts...but the hostesses welcomed us in. It was one of those moments were I felt super welcomed and I rarely feel that these days. The service was pretty good! I ordered the Pasta Kotopoulo. It was SO GOOD. We also ordered the watermelon salad and that was to die for. We rarely cheat on our Food For Thought because it's hardly ever worth it, but this place was so good, we will definitely come back.

Kephi Cold Pikilia
Liz B.

I remember really liking this place the last time I came but this time it kind of missed a lot of marks. First of all, they ran out of the swordfish special so I ordered the whole branzino at market price ($38). My mom was able to get the last swordfish but it only tasted all right to me. The branzino was nothing special either. The skin wasn't crispy and they make you take it apart yourself, I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to it as it was kind of tasteless. The best part of our meal was the Kephi Cold Pikilia which was three dips, dolmades, and pita bread. This was good! But I do wish the pita bread was a little more toasted. Then for service, we were waiting for ages for our food to come out and then finally pay at the end. We literally had to get up from our table to try to find someone so that we could pay. Nice servers, but weirdly overwhelmed even though the restaurant wasn't busy. I don't need to come back any time soon.

FANTASTIC! We were in the area and came across this location on Yelp. Many people said great things about Kephi. So we decided to try them out. It was myself and my family. Parking is easy to navigate. Once inside the hues of blue surrounded us. We were seated immediately. We place an order of just about everything, especially when it came to dessert. We tried to order all different things so we can have a taste of just about everything. Everything was fantastic and very authentic. Our server was awesome. He was very attentive. He was very helpful to another table who were having trouble navigating the menu. The desserts.. .the desserts! There is so many to choose from. There are many cookies, cakes, pies ect. We went up to the case to take a look at everything and placed our order that way. The desserts were also very authentic. Overall Kephi is on the list for Williamsburg eats. I highly recommend Kephi.

Very friendly and helpful service. Beautiful ambience with Greek music playing. The food tasted fresh and delicious with a variety of authentic desserts to round out the experience. Reminded me very much of my trip to Greece. We will be back soon to try more of the menu.

Kephi Gyro

Kephi is a wonderful authentic Greek spot with personal touches that make you feel like you're in a cozy restaurant no matter how busy they are. We've been here multiple times and each time was amazing. Most recently we had traditional gyros for lunch and shared a traditional dessert from the extensive dessert case. The meat in our gyros was tender and the tzatziki was thick and not runny. We love coming here, the food is amazing and as long the restaurant isn't packed the service is good.

Eggplant appetizer

Happened to find this place in a local guide book and so glad I did. The food from appetizer, to main and deserts were wonderful. Even the wine. My server was on points and kind. I was dining solo which can be intimidating but everything here was inviting.

After several friends recommending this restaurant we decided to drive to Williamsburg and try it out. The menu is large so there is something for everyone. We had the zucchini fritter for appetizer. They were good but a little "mushy" for my taste. I ordered a sandwich and it was good. My husband ordered the kebobs and loved them. The desserts looked amazing but we were too full to order one. Next time I will save room! Our server was very attentive and helpful with our questions. I was surprised at how large the restaurant was but their was a steady flow of patrons!

Kephi Chicken Gyro
Caroline J.

Ate here again and sadly this place really missed the mark. Decided to try the gyro again, that maybe the first time was an off-night. Meat still not good or flavorful. I think being a Greek restaurant you should be able to do decent gyro meat. Hostess was rude, and then ended up giving us the specials menu from the night before. Why would you still have those out on the hostess stand? The worst past is that two of our guests ordered them and was not informed by our waitress that they didn't have those specials that evening till almost a half hour after we had ordered. Bad service. Really the only redeeming quality was the Oreo cake slice from the evening.

Walked in for the bakery, large selection. The deserts are beautiful. I got pistachio raspberry cakes for my mom and I. I personally thought that it looked better than it tasted I was hoping for more raspberry flavor and a lot more pistachio flavor. On the pricy side it was around $16 for the 2. But my mom liked it a lot.

Cheesecake Baklava
Belle A.

Elegant design and light background music plays in this quintessential Greek restaurant but with much elan! The delicious aroma of fresh Greek fare wafts about as you sit in the relaxed and stylish dining area. They have an elegant bar if you prefer to enjoy drinks before or after an event or show! The host graciously greets you with a smile and leads you to your table. Immediately your eyes are drawn to the dessert counter! But first things first, order your entree and then decide on the multitude of desserts on offer! We ordered off the Chef's Pick Perka and the Crabcakes, for dessert: baklava cheesecake, Charlotte apricot, and the Bell!

I ordered their oyster po boy taco which had 3 fried oysters served on two tortillas and fresh cabbage, etc. Both dishes had a tad bit too much lemon/citrus taste:after taste. I just wish the fried oysters were placed on top of the veggies and sauce so they could stay crunchy and not soggy! The service was great, my server had patience going through the menu since I indicated it was my first time dining with them, everyone seems to be polite.

Disappointing plus not much in the way of tater tots. They didnt have the doggie menu I saw online which is why I came here but they did make up a beef patty with rice. My dogs ate the beef and played with the rice. And tap water was served which wouldn't have been so bad bit again it was served at room temp which made it taste odd. All in all probably not a spot I will return

For starters I got the French onion soup which came out in about 20 minutes. Soup was very solid and had more of a purée taste which was surprisingly good. The pasties especially the chocolate croissants were also delicious. After another 25 minutes the main dishes came out. I got the fillet which came with a peppercorn glaze (amazing!) and crispy potato pie. Fillet was cooked to correct medium rare temperature and tasted delicious! For desert, I got the cheesecake with raspberry! It was really rich and delicious! The raspberry puree provided a nice tart taste to go alongside the sweetness!
