Food was excellent and we met Mr Kostas. A Greek immigrant came to America to bring us a taste of the Mediterranean. We had the Kefta beef and lamb pita, hummus, falafel and Ice cream Baklava. Everything was excellent. read more

Wow, this is truly a sad experience. Kostas called me back, and I apologized for the rating and explained what happened with the nice young woman I had spoken with. She was understanding and took my catering order about 5 minutes later. Then the owner called me, clearly upset about the rating. I tried to apologize again and explain what had happened, but unfortunately, he hung up on me. Before I could finish. I was honestly shocked and disappointed by the way the situation was handled. The post was gone by the time he called back and I corrected my mistake. Too bad it wasn't a mistake. Do better. I'm sure you won't talk that way to my husband. read more

I'm going to say we have been here multiple times and have always had a good experience with great service and exceptional food. This was not the case for our last visit. The service was good as usual but the issue was definitely from the back of the restaurant. On a Saturday night at 6 pm they were out of many menu items to include, sea bass, salmon , chicken and potatoes and fries. We should have just came back another time as we saw at least 2 other tables do. I ask if I could have the fried zucchini since they were out of fries, reluctantly the put 3 on my plate of fish and chips. The fish and zucchini were left in the fryer so long it was truly inedible. See photo for comparison of the order we had on a prior visit. Hopefully this was just an off night for them. read more

In reality, I will rarely choose Greek food as a dinner choice. Not because it's bad, but because I love other food options more. However, we had a double date planned and Kosta's was chosen for us. One of the best choices ever. The atmosphere is welcoming from the moment you walk in; friendly greeting within seconds of walking in, calming colors of blue and white adorn every wall with charming tablecloths on each table, and cute decor. Service was immediate with a carafe of water and a huge smile. I loved the vibe! Ordered a German Hefeweizen that came cold and frothy. Next came the Greek salad with the most juicy, crisp tomatoes, green peppers and cucumbers, then heavily sprinkled with feta cheese, a pinch of capers, and a side of the best Greek dressing I've ever tasted. I was originally taken aback that there was no lettuce, but real Greek salad doesn't have lettuce! I had no idea. Hubby and I shared the Broiler Mix from the appetizer menu so we could sample multiple items. The Broiler mix has 2 chicken skewers, 2 beef skewers, 2 Kefta patties, 2 chorizo, 2 pitas, fries, tomato wedges and a healthy dollop of tzatziki. The pita tasted homemade; it was soft, thick without being too think and didn't taste chalky. The skewers were exceptionally cooked...tender, flavorful pieces of chicken and beef. The kefta (lamb & beef) patties had a nice texture, which was enhanced with the herbaceous tzatziki sauce. The only disappointment was the chorizo as it was overcooked and dry. It was easy to overlook as everything else was a shining star. We would go back in a heartbeat....totally made me want to explore more Greek food there! read more

Overall, I liked the place - it was clean and comfortable, and the staff are super friendly. Service was quick. The tzatziki is AWESOME, definitely get some, and their sweet potato fries are perfect. But the lamb and beef meatball sub I got was meh for me, personally. I was hoping for at least some taste of beef but it was overwhelming lamb, to the point I wasn't really interested in eating it. I would go there again to try something else, just steer clear of the meatball sub if you don't absolutely LOVE lamb - if you do, I'm sure you'll love it. read more

Seriously- can't go wrong by sitting outside or inside here! For bring in a Blaise strip mall... this family run authentic Greek restaurant manages to feel homey yet sophisticated enough to charm any foodie. A delight for all ages! read more

Very nice and attentive server. From the minute we came through the door and until the end. Beer and wine only with some twists on wine type cocktails. Beer on tap had great choices. Had to try the spanakopita and it didn't disappoint. Fresh, warm, and light/flaky crust. Big serving for an appetizer. Cretan salad was good. Came with pita bread. Chicken pita was the best of the bunch. The sauce was delish! Sweet potato fries were on the cold side which was disappointing. Want to try some of their entrees before giving them a fifth star. read more

Kosta's continues to bring great food and service. Stopping in for a late lunch my husband enjoyed the salmon and dill sauce and I enjoyed the lemon herb char broiled chicken. We started with the lemon rice chicken soup. It is lovely. Light and flavorful it brings me back for more every time Desert, well the bougotsa of course!! Creamy custard wrapped in crispy phyllo and topped with beautiful cherry sauce. So delicious and not too heavy. Perfect ending of our meal.... Oh, yes!! We were delighted to meet the owner Gus Kosta and watch him work the room as he met and greeted his patrons. I love to see restaurateurs enjoy meeting and greeting spreading their love of good food and appreciation to loyal customers and new customers. Great restaurant!! read more

Excellent authentic Greek food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Best Greek food we've ever had! Service is always 10/10 as well! read more

Great place for some authentic Greek food! You may have to wait around dinner time for a bit but if you enjoy Greek food this is the place for you! Have yet to try any seafood or pastas on the menu but we love coming here for our fix read more

First time we were looking for a good Greek restaurant and Kosta's. We started with the fired zucchini appetizer it was really good including two different Taziki sauces. Regular and spicy. For our main course I had the lamb pita and wife had chickens Sobaki with Greek salads as the side. Let's start with salads. They were good but they put it in a small bowl and the tomatoes, cucumbers and bell peppers really needed to be cut smaller or put the salad on the plate so we could cut them down to eat. The pitas we good but really lacking meat. They could have used double the meat. We left wanting more meat. Probably try something else next time read more

One of my go to places in Eagle. Always a great meal, staff is friendly, atmosphere is nice. Prices are a bit average to higher side but it's well worth it. The souvlaki pitas are all phenomenal, the chicken and potatoes, broiler mix is a great sharing option, overall just really great menu. read more

If I went there and the food was simply mediocre, I would still go back if Gus came out of the kitchen to greet the diners, as he often does. So warm and friendly, and that clearly sets the tone. The entire staff is very good and you really feel like a guest in this cozy little place. But I don't have to worry about the food ever being anything but spectacular here! I have never had anything short of a great meal here. Whether it's a salad, a sandwich , or a dinner, the food is always first rate. The meatball sandwich and their Greek burger are absolutely epic, the chicken is so moist, and the Cretin salad is so good and flavorful that we usually skip the dressing and just enjoy it with the balsamic reduction. A word about fry sauce. Generally speaking, I avoid it. I know many folks love it but I am so often disappointed by what is too often weak and diluted catsup. But the fry sauce here is absolutely amazing! Now I am even less willing to order it anywhere else. They have just set the bar too high for others to even compete. read more

Food, service and ambiance are great. This is now one of my favorite restaurants. The food feels homemade; they taste delicious. Today we tried a new dish for two (the Mediterranean seafood plate) It was in the menu for dinner but they were able to accommodate and do it for lunch. Delicious!!! read more

We went back to Costa's Taverna recently and the 5 stars held true! Truly a fabulous restaurant and our new go-to restaurant. Food: 5/5. Again, the food was spectacular. I got the Moussaka again since I loved it last time and crave it at least once a month. I really like to try new things, so you know it is really, really good if I order it again. My husband got the lamb yeero. He said it was amazing! The fries were excellent as well. Service: 5/5. We had a different waitress this time, just as great as the waitress from last time. Very attentive and a calming energy. Atmosphere: 5/5. A comfy, cozy establishment that always feel welcoming and warm. The setting takes you to Greece and everything is always very clean. Kid friendly: 4/5. We didn't take our kids this time, however we have in the past and the staff was very friendly with our daughter. read more

Very disappointed that a Greek restaurant did not offer gyro ... portions were small especially the soup... not impressed

Looooove their food. Their pita bread tastes homemade and the falafel is delicious. My one gripe is that they charge quite a bit for adding feta to your plate. Other than that, a great menu! You can't really go wrong. read more

The food at Kostas is fabulous. Tasty, hot and lots of it. The service was great! I would highly recommend this for small or large parties. read more

Talk about one amazingly friendly restaurant staff and owner. Being Greek, I am picky about my Greek food. This place has the best Avgolemono soup. The Tzatziki sauce is very good. They also have skordalia, one of my favorites. The moussaka is divine. I am looking forward to trying some of the lamb dishes next. Can't go wrong having lunch or dinner here. The place is clean and welcoming, as well. Olga read more

I hate having to rate lower than 4 stars anywhere and honestly, the service and food were both mostly good so it would have been a 4 or 5 star experience if it weren't for a big problem I experienced during my meal. I ordered a canned cocktail, spankopita for an appetizer and did a build your own pasta dish which is a menu item that normally is reserved for dinner time but they let me have it during the lunch time frame. The big issue I experienced during my meal? FLIES! Multiple flies circled my booth the entire time I was there. I tried rushing through my meal as they started landing on my food one by one... they luckily didn't touch my drink or my pasta, but they landed on my appetizer, the bread that accompanied the pasta, and they really went after the side salad. My waitress asked if I wanted to take my salad to go as I hadn't touched it, and I drew her attention to the flies sitting on top of the salad and said no thank you. To be fair, she did offer to make me a new salad to take home, but I politely refused. She then brought the check. My meal was pretty expensive but I do understand that I got an alcoholic beverage and the appetizer and pasta were pretty big portions. It would have been nice if they would have taken at least a couple bucks off considering the flies, but I went ahead and paid the bill as is. I'm not sure if I'll be back after that which is a shame because the food that I did get to eat was pretty good but if I'm spending nearly $50 on lunch for myself, I would rather it be somewhere without flies attacking my food. read more

Go here now! We spent a large portion of our time here for dinner sad we hadn't tried it sooner. We love Greek food and are so happy we found this spot. We ordered the tempura mushrooms which were insanely good (they reminded me of a tempura my dad used to make that I've never been able to replicate or find a place that did it as well) it came with a side of tzatziki which was great plus a spicy tzatziki which was out of the world. I would eat it with a spoon for breakfast if I could. For mains we got the half chicken, lemon soup, greek salads and moussaka. The only thing that made the moussaka better was not eating it all and finishing it for breakfast the next day omg just got better! So so so great! The chicken was flavorful and tender, salads perfect, and the soup one of the best Avgolemono we've had. The servers were super sweet and helpful. Oh and speaking of sweet - we also got baklavas to go (we were sneaking in a date night while the kids were at their respective practices) she gave us an extra piece because we got it without ice cream since it was to go. They gave us a little cup with a lid of the honey/syrup which was great because it didn't get soggy while driving. When we got to my son's practice I cut them up, poured the sauce one and shared with parents and the coach and everyone agreed it was some of the best they've had. It was heavy on the cinnamon but we loved it. Can't wait to get back and try a gyro! (Though the spell it yeero which I hadn't seen before so of course I looked it up) read more

Food and service is always incredible. Highly recommend! This is our go-to for delicious food at a reasonable price.

Sometimes, you just don't know what you have in your backyard. This was certainly the case as of last night, as my daughter and I drove through Meridian and Eagle scouting out potential restaurants that could seat 12 guests and a variety of special dietary needs. Sure, all the usual suspects were easily spotted, but as we made our way through the Albertson's shopping center in Eagle, there sandwiched between Anytime Fitness and Mongolian of Eagle was Kosta's I was in charge of calling two restaurants that shall not be named while my daughter called Kosta's Taverna Not more than a couple of hours after our request, a Kosta's team member reached out to my daughter and said, they would love to have us, all of us. Wow. We are a group of 12 which includes my 3, my brother's 3, my daughter's boyfriend, my aunt from France, my mom, and my terminally ill father. I can't even express my gratitude in words right now as I type away for Kosta's Taverna to open their restaurant for such a large group on a busy Friday night. I, of course, was running late to meet the reservation time but I did make it in time to see my father finish eating what was on the sampler plate. Our server was so accommodating and genuine. I know we made a racket with all of our conversations, but Kosta's just felt some homey. Being the only vegan in the group, I came prepared with Follow Your Heart Vegan Feta Crumbles and Vegan Kite Hill Tzatziki sauce. Our server recommended the Falafel Pita and she had organized a list of potentially other menu items that could be prepared vegan. I was pretty impressed with the level of concern. It meant a lot to me. We ordered and then Gus, the owner operator came out to speak with us. Not only did he visit with us, but he also visited with all the other patrons who were enjoying their delicious meals. The spanakopita ordered by my daughter and her boyfriend looked amazing. Worthy of throwing down at least five plates. My pita arrived with a nice Greek salad and both were fresh, and tasty, and I could not have asked for more. We all enjoyed all of our meals, we laughed, we cried, we hugged, and we had one of the best dinners together as a family. I can't thank Gus and the team for welcoming us into their restaurant and treating us like family. It was a memorable evening and ever so special. read more

OMG what a find! I was looking up Greek restaurants in the Treasure Valley and came across this place on Yelp! For starters I was very impressed with their 4.9 rating and felt like some what of a unicorn we decided to try this place out last night. Well we weren't the only ones. Located in a strip mall off Eagle Rd we put our name in to wait for a table. They do accept reservations and I would recommend for the next time especially on a weekend night. Inside very clean and while modest decor reminded me of a classic Greek restaurant. The people here are so nice and you can tell a true family atmosphere. We started off with the sampler appetizer with hummus, roasted red pepper feta. This is highly recommended and the warm pita bread was amazing. I also tried their daily soup special served with their grilled bread. This as well was so good! The bread was awesome and so light and perfectly grilled. For dinner I had the chicken and potatoes with roasted carrots. This lemony chicken dish was so delicious and I would put at the top of one of the better dishes I have had. My wife had the sea bass and I was able to sneak a bit and wow so perfectly prepared. My daughter as well loved her grilled chicken plate with sweet potato fries and that warm pita bread. I would highly recommend this place and I know for sure we will be back! What an awesome find! read more

Tried the new business on Saturday night before Easter. They had about 50% of the dining room filled. Table service was impeccable, with frequent visits. The owners stopped by a few times to check as well. This is a very positive environment, much like eating at someone's home. We had Kleftiko (lamb shank) and the Yeero (Rotisserie Pork) dinners. The yeero was delicious and much like Mexican carnitas. For lamb fans, the shank was excellent. Very fair pricing for the size of the meals. Each came with a beautiful Greek salad. The owners are very thoughtful for automatically putting the salad dressing on the side. We had a couple of cocktails from the menu. Overall, this is one of the very few restaurants in the area that give you real value for your dollar. Not a bunch of fluff like other "popular" places. Bring an appetite. Treasure Valley residents should come out and support Jennie and Gus in their new endeavor. You won't be disappointed and you won't leave hungry (for sure). We are going back, soon. read more

First of all, my husband and I had moderate expectations for Kosota's. Greek in Idaho? Well, we were wrong! Kostas is a quaint, small taverna with a bar! We were greeted with welcome smiling faces. The service was attentive and quick. As for the food? Wow. First we ordered the humus and tzatziki appetizer. Delicious! Plenty of yummy pita. My husband had a lamb gyro which came with a Greek salad. Both were delicious. Especially the salad which had lots of fresh vegetables, peppers, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, and feta cheese. I had a lamb and chicken souvlaki dinner, but had to take home half. Very yummy. My husband had Greek coffee. Made perfectly. Finally we ordered a dessert that had custard wrapped in phyllo dough that was baked fresh. A bit of a wait but worth it. Warm, sweet and delicious! Three pieces. I ate one. He ate the other two pieces. We are going back soon. read more
