KRIOS is a storefront gem that delivers an absolutely amazing dining experience from start to finish. The menu is incredibly diverse, offering an excellent selection of pasta, seafood, chicken, and steak. The food is beautifully prepared. The lemon lobster ravioli was cooked to perfection with an outrageously delicious, perfectly balanced zesty lemon flavor. Even better was the Tartufo Risotto with black truffle--the rich flavor profile was incredible and prepared flawlessly. For dessert, the homemade pistachio cheesecake was decadent, velvety smooth, and packed with creamy flavor. We also loved the extra special Banana Strawberry Flambé, which was prepared tableside right in the intimate dining room for everyone to see! Our service team, led by Blendi, was on top of everything. They were incredibly attentive, accommodating, and welcoming. With great food, sharp service, and very decent pricing, this restaurant is highly recommended. It is an easy 5-minute drive right off Route 287. There is a small parking lot in the rear, plus plenty of local neighborhood and street parking. Reservations are recommended but not required. We will definitely be back! read more

We had an outstanding experience at Krios Prime. The octopus is soooo good--and the clam sauce was the best we've ever had. On top of the food, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere made for an enjoyable night out. Definitely a place we'll be coming back to. read more

01/29/26 Back again. Still a favorite place for good food that's not a BYOB. This time we started with their Frito Mediterranean (calamari with thinly sliced zucchini and eggplant). My wife ordered my favorite Chicken Krios and I the Seafood pasta. Everything was wonderful and with a couple of glasses of a nice white pinot grigio and we were happy campers... again. read more

Gotta love their 25% off specials at the gorgeous bar! Timing is everything if you want a seat, but worth it! Food is fresh, delicious and portions are generous. Drinks are wonderful every time!! While I get that the food is made fresh, I think the service can be slow ... probably because of the crowds. Bring a little patience with you, be willing to chat with a close by neighbor and you'll have a perfect experience! Cheers! read more

Krios - Manhattan and Lemon Drop - Mediterranean Near Me - Bloomingdale, New Jersey

My new favorite HAPPY HOUR!! And right in town! Makes me happy so glad we decided to come check it out tonight! They've only been open since October. We were welcomed by a sweet hostess Lianna and went over to the bar area where the happy hour special is. There are a few tables but they were all taken. Our bartender Florio was very friendly. We placed our order and were served pretty quickly. I started with a fig martini which was excellent but then had another Pom Fig which was their speciality and it was delicious! My husband had a smoked old fashioned. Nice presentation. Appetizer we went with octopus and clams. Yummy... Loved my dinner which was the chicken Souvlaki with rice , tzatziki Greek salad! So flavorful!! Being that we were full We decided to take dessert home which was the baklava. It was heavenly and great way to end the night!! We will so be back!!! read more

Just opened in Wayne! We decided to go for a late lunch/early dinner and sat at the bar. They have great cocktail options--I got the sage martini, and my husband (the beer drinker) was pleased to see they had Heineken Light. We ordered the Mediterranean trio dip with pita. The hummus and pita are vegan; the other options are not. For our meals, we ordered the Greek salad (no feta) and lemon potatoes, which they made special for me and are vegan! My husband ordered the Chilean sea bass, which looked amazing and was a huge portion. Overall, the service and food were great, and we're so glad we stopped in to try it. We'll definitely be back!. read more

1st time at this new restaurant. Overall very good and will cone back again. Octopus appetizer spectacular. Tender and grilled to perfection. Seafood appetzer good not great. A few clams, mussels, calamari and a little octopus over arugula. Fresh could have been seasoned better. The fresh lemon made it very delicios. Then we waited a lengthy amount of time before entree served. It was excessive and the server didnt say a word to us until 2 minutes before they finally arrived. 3 of us got the pistachio crusted halibut and we loved it, however, it was luke warm upon receiving, sad especially considering the considerable amount of time between app to entree that we waited. And branzino was the final entree, ot was also incredible. Hiwever the potatoes were crazy salty and tasted reheated. We finished with an incredibly amazing baklava. Service needs sone work. And maybe a few preparation tweaks. We loved the food and hope next time is a little better read more

Krios - Very different baklava - Mediterranean Near Me - Bloomingdale, New Jersey

I was so sad that I never had a chance to try cafe chameleon (prior occupants of this location) but no matter, this place is a gem in a wasteland of pizza and Chinese (I grew up next door in butler so I say this lovingly). We went for our anniversary dinner tonight and i definitely didn't feel like I was in bloomingdale. Beautiful decor, extremely clean and well cared for with warm service. We sampled the lump crab (my favorite, nice portion!), oysters (massive) and tuna tartar (beautifully presented). My husband had the cacio e Pepe with the filet and they did a great job on the sauce. I had a phenomenal Atlantic cod with a delicious lemon butter sauce. We loved the drink selection and as someone who has been to Greece and Italy numerous times they did a stellar job here with their food. read more

Krios - Beautiful bar - Mediterranean Near Me - Bloomingdale, New Jersey

Flavor was great and on point. from the time I ordered to pick it up, it was about 20 minutes. Waited inside for the order and there's a bar area and also another side to dine in. I did see some happy hour specials that look intriguing. I did not take a picture, but I'm not sure if it said 35% off menu during those happy hour times. - OK, let's talk about this flavor bomb the feta in the salad was full flavored and thick. Yum. I assume Taziki I used for the chicken and it was the thickest dip I have ever had and now I don't want it any other way. The chicken was very juicy tender, pulling it off.. included some bread and the sauce that was included with it possibly was roasted red peppers. Tasty. I will be coming back. read more

Go here for a fun nj dinner vibe, nice atmosphere where people dress nice and aren't wearing sweat pants and pjs in the restaurant. You walk in there's a bar area upon entry and then off to the right behind the hostess is a cool dining room set up...there's a cool built in fireplace in the wall and greenery in the ceiling. The chairs are comfy, the music is good, the place is fresh and new and the food is pretty good. GET THE BRUSSELS SPROUTS with Labneh and Grilled Peaches! Salty/lemon seasoning and Banging! The zucchini and eggplant chips were also salty and delish. I did not care for the Pom fig martini recommended by the waiter....I asked for a sweet martini but this was bitter and tart and I couldn't drink it so will need to try it without the Pom next time. For my main I had the spaghetti mare e bosco which was shrimp, asparagus and mushrooms in a pink sauce. It was a heavy dish and had a large portion of pasta and I personally would have liked more veggies included. Hub had a $60 steak with mashed and it was good but a bit pricey for the portion. We will be going back for sure to try other things on the menu. The things that are making me want to come back; easy location, cool vibe, good music, nice atmosphere, different menu with lots of options and specials; and finally I'm know I'm a weirdo but its the Brussels sprouts! read more

Let's talk about the octopus because it's the best octopus I have had in a very long time. Overall the food was good and fresh. I didn't not like the polenta Square that the halibut came on, but I can't like everything. The drinks could use a little flare, but for simple regular drinks - not bad. Last but not least the service was excellent. Tony was attentive and on top of his game. We will be back. read more

I don't make it up to Bloomingdale often and when a friend insisted we needed to try a Mediterranean restaurant she's heard good things about up there, I was skeptical. But WOW. We had the zucchini and eggplant chips and fried calamari as appetizers which were fried perfectly. The chicken souvlaki was delicious and a very large portion. The server was so sweet and helpful with our questions. The ambiance was a little old school which I found surprising because it has "hip" potential but instead leans more on the side of white table cloths and caters to a slightly older crowd. They were even making bananas foster on an open flame in the middle of the restaurant which was fun to see. Will definitely need to make the trip back. read more

Food was excellent. Great price, especially for happy hour. Been there twice in one week. Service was great as well. Fresh oysters were nice to see on a menu around here and top notch. Can't wait to return. read more

Everything was delicious! The service people were very nice. The restaurant was cute. The only thing I would fix would be that the music was not dining music and was a bit loud, but the food was so good that I didn't mind too much. read more

We are fairly new to the area and been missing fine dining, as there are many casual spots around. We were pleasantly surprised to come across Krios. We typically go to queens for Mediterranean food when we are missing authenticity but this Greek salad was one of the best ones we've had since our trip to Santorini. We were impressed with every dish we had this evening. The Krios chips were by far the best we've had. I loved how thin and crispy they were. My husband is a chicken parm connoisseur and he said this was one of the best ones he ever had. The sauce, cheese and thin crispy chicken cutlet was amazing. My cod was very buttery and delicious as well. We loved the flambé dessert, very delicious and entertaining. Haven't had it since our trip to New Orleans and it was lovely! Bonus points for serving my fave rosé, whispering angel. Also, the service was excellent and attentive. Will certainly be back if not a regular at this place! read more

Service was excellent. We went on a Tuesday and for happy hour. Two glasses of wine each and 3 appetizers, all 25% off....came to $ 38.00 per person. This translates to 48.00 without happy hour....My take is they charge too much for their drinks and I wasn't thrilled with any app. Calamari was limp, eggplant app was also limp, the best was the free potatoe chips...All patrons were in the bar area. Not one table in the dining room. No kidding. This screams overpriced food to me. I won't be back. read more

This is an Italian restaurant/bar with a few Greek dishes. I was really in the mood for a good gyro platter and I only saw a greek lemon soup, greek salad and chicken souvlaki on the menu. Everything else is italian. read more

This was our first time, trying Krios. The staff was very nice and attentive. The restaurant is beautiful. To drink we started off with a dirty martini and the Grape vine. The grapevine was delicious. The dirty martini only came with one stuffed olive, not a huge deal, but almost every dirty martini always comes with three olives and for $16 it should. For appetizers, we had the crab cake and the beet salad. The crab cake and the corn avocado salad that came with it was delicious but the dressing on the side tasted like a salty deviled egg. The beet salad was okay as long as you had a bite of cheese with it, but the beets were bland and somewhat watery on their own. For dinner we had the lemon lobster ravioli that was delicious and my husband had the octopus app that he enjoyed. For desert we had the fruit flambé which was tasty, but could've had more fruit in it. The espresso and the tiramisu martini were delicious. As other reviews have mentioned the music is more of a club vibe which I didn't mind but it's different than what you would expect. Overall dinner was good but pricey. I hope it lasts in this area. read more

Krios does not disappoint. Every thing from the apps to the entrees to the drinks was exceptional. High quality food prepared well. Many options for different preferences. From fish to pizza you really cant go wrong. Highlights were the octopus, halibut and creme brulee. This place is worth traveling to. read more

Made a last minute switch for Valentine's Day due to the weather and we definitely did not regret our decision. Food was delicious! Calamari was an easy 10/10 and that tartufo is EVIL. I ate the whole thing by myself. The chicken kabobs were amazing and the tzatziki sauce made it even better. Cute little restaurant and bar area. Definitely will be returning and recommending. read more

I cannot wait to go back to KRIOS! I had the Tomahawk pork chop and it was to die for. The beet salad was the best I ever had. The Mediterranean spreads were perfect too. The service was just right and the ambience is intimate and cozy. Overall a wonderful addition to the local restaurant scene! read more

A little disappointing. I had heard good things about this restaurant from friends. We met for lunch. The menu was not very friendly for a vegetarian. The food I ordered was not good at all. It also took a very long time to come out. We had to keep chasing the waiter around the restaurant. He was not visible for the majority of the time we were there. There was a girl working but she didn't speak English at all so that didn't help. It wasn't busy so we should have gotten more attention. Best thing I can say is the atmosphere and decor was nice. New and modern. It was very pricey as well so that made this all worse. read more

Delicious and Upscale. What a great find. The atmosphere is elegent, the food amazing and large prtions, and the servcie top notch. The Octapus was grilled to perfection, the crabcake with the avacado was delicious and big enough to share, the Hadack topped with pistacios in bechamel sauce wonderful and the baklava stuffed with gelato was to die for!! If you eat in the bar area there is a big discount, but we chose to be pampered in the white tablecloth area. drinks were a great pour and delicious. My freind said the best cosmo she ever had and the expresso martinis for dessert were yummy read more

Everything was WAY over salted, from apps to dinner. I literally couldn't eat my dinner which was a fish dish, it turned my stomach from the amount of salt. Cacio e Pepe was not good at all. Nice place though maybe just bad luck read more

We had the pleasure of dining at Krios for the first time tonight and couldn't have had a better experience! The staff was so attentive and professional - and the food and drink was terrific! After cocktails (a Cabernet for my wife and a Sage Martini for me!), we started with their Homemade Spreads appetizer (spicy feta, cucumber dill yogurt, and eggplant and roasted red peppers). Then I had the Lemon Lobster Ravioli with Burrata, and my wife had the Salmon with labneh, quinoa, beets, and almonds. Everything was just delicious! We definitely will be going back! read more

Guests who were dinning next to us also agreed to the excellent quality of the entire dining experience. Looking very much forward to our return.

First visit with friends. Food is out of this world, but very pricey! Had grilled octopus for starter, tomahawk pork chop, both delicious! decor is warm and inviting, BUT ONE RALLY BIG DRAWBACK is the 70's/80's incessant disco head banging music !!! Really annoying and management couldn't care less if you complain as several others did the night we were there. Only reason for it in such nice dining atmosphere is that it encourages you to speed up your dining experience so they can move you out turn table over quickly. read more

To start, my husband and I live in town and have driven past this place and kept saying we should stop in. So glad we did because the food was so fresh and delicious. The atmosphere makes you feel as though you are sitting beachside on a Greek island and the service is absolutely wonderful. We stopped in for lunch but are definitely coming back for dinner with friends. Highly recommend. read more

Could be a great place from the looks . BUT,with remorse, sorry to say it is not very good. Jen, the bartender, was professional, however I usually take offense when a bartender is ordered by management to measure the drinks like a pharmacist. What was said to be EVO, was definetely NOT. All indicates a capitalist management style without attention to culinary expertise, accross the board. I had a salad which was "eh", I decided to give one more chance and ordered the shrimp appetizer. They were tough, not edible, most likely old. read more
