I decided to give this place another try and had a better experience. Still have to say that the…read morefood is overly salty though. I had a Greek salad and added gyro meat to the top. Generous portion of gyro. The salad was huge. Feta cheese tasted odd. Very salty and had an old/not fresh taste to it. My friend had the Greek combo plate which had gyro meat, a chicken kebab, grilled pita, and a side. We sat up at the bar and had great service. They had a cocktail menu with their seasonal specials. My friend had the apple crisp made with Crown Apple. At $14 it seemed a little steep. I stuck with Jack Daniels and Diet Coke and at $9 that still seemed a little high and enough not to merit a second drink. The Greek has a lot going for it. It has a good vibe with friendly staff. If they can work on the menu a little more and dial back the salt content on the food this place would be on my list of Greektown choices. I don't know if I will give this place a third try with so many other options all within walking distance.

I also liked my meal this time. I got the lemon chicken soup and a Greek salad. Very large portions and very good. I went with 4 others who also got a variety of dishes. They all enjoyed as well. Lots of food. They also had some ciders. This time I'd rate the food and service much better. The road is completely torn up in front of the whole street. I guess they are making a giant patio. That will be cool. But now it's probably killing everyone's business now. The sidewalks are still available but it's a skinny walkway. It doesn't appear at the moment that they are close to completing. Maybe this time next year it'll be done.

There's something special about walking into a place that's been part of your life for that long. The atmosphere is always lively and welcoming -- that classic Greektown energy with a comfortable, familiar feel. Whether it's a busy weekend night or a more relaxed weekday dinner, the staff keeps things moving and stays friendly and attentive. The food is why I keep coming back year after year. The saganaki is a must -- flaming cheese, a little show, and that perfect salty bite with lemon. The gyro platter is generous and flavorful, with tender meat and warm pita. The Greek salad is always fresh, loaded with feta, and dressed just right. Portions are hearty and consistently satisfying. After more than two decades of visits, Pegasus has never let me down. It's dependable, flavorful, and full of character. If you're in Greektown and want a tried-and-true Greek spot with history and heart, this is it.

You enter in the back of the building and go down a small hallway. Inside has high ceilings and lots of seating. Some high top bar, tables and then a row of booth seating. Place felt clean. We ordered on a kiosk. Lots of different options, some non Greek stuff as well. Such as my dad got a burger. Our food came out staggered. First the hummus/bread, then the mezze plate, then entrees. Everyone enjoyed their food. The mezze plate was my favorite - had a little bit of everything to try. They serve their grapeleaves cold which I prefer. Falafel was a little dry but the dips/hummus helped. Spanikopita had a good crunch outside and yummy filing. Staff were fine - did not interact with them too much other than bringing out food out. Pop machine is serve yourself. Noticed signs that said they would clean up your table. Bathrooms were by the cash register and single stall. Dessert was yummy with rice pudding. It was creamy and a good portion.

I want to love this place, but I can only like it. The food is too hit and miss for me to "not be…read moreable to wait" until my next visit. I'll eat here, but not as often as i would if they polished up their menu/execution. The chicken dishes, all of them, are terrible. They advertise "tender chicken cut into slices," but if you look at any of the pics on here, it's all the same - tiny, little chicken bits, dry and overcooked. The more obscure dishes are the way to go. They fail hard on the basics, but hit home runs on their more unheard of menu items. If you've never heard of something, but it sounds good - that's what you should order here. Chicken lemon rice: 3/10 Not enough chicken, lemon tastes artificial and weird, soup is bland. I've had better CLR at most any coney island. Chicken Gyro: 3/10 Chicken was dry, the orzo was dry and overcooked, tziki sauce was thick and lacked flavor. Plenty of chicken... I would have rather had less chicken, cooked better. I haven't seen their chicken kabob, but it seems like this place uses the thick part of their breast for the kabobs, and uses the scraps bits for all of their other dishes. Grape Leaves: 7/10 Good flavor, good sauce... wish the CLR soup tasted as good as the sauce from the grape leaves. Stifado: 9/10 Excellent dish. Good amount of beef, great flavor, nice stew. This is the dish that I would come back for. Bread basket: Bread: 4/10 - they serve the bread ice cold. Olive oil: 9/10 - excellent flavor, super light, nice lemon zest Service: 8.5/10 - good job. They had one guy for all 8 or so tables, but did he did a good job covering them. The busser/assistant did a good job at keeping our waters and bread full, but he tries to carry too much, and it causes a big distraction (glasses clunking, nearly falling over, re-stacking)... sometimes two trips is better than one... He also says "of course" (pet peeve) when someone says "thank you." Perhaps I'm weird, but I find that terribly dismissive, and off-putting.

Everything we ate from the salad and its dressing to the mussels and the gyro were both fresh and delicious. The mussels didn't seem to be debearded but they were fresh and delicious.

Luckily we got a seat at the little bar rail! I was feeling chilly in the January cold so I ordered avgolemono soup and a latte, and Nate got a breakfast pita. They also have gyros, salads, some desserts, and other Greek specialties. The food was delicious, comforting, and hit the spot on a cold day. The soup was lemony and full of chunks of tender chicken and rice. The latte was hot and they had oat milk upon request. I tried several bites of the breakfast pita, which was cheesy and delicious. I have to say that the service was incredible and the people working were so friendly and welcoming. They even told us we could take our food to the brewery next door. I loved this spot and would definitely come back.

I ordered the chicken platter and it came with a huge serving of perfectly seasoned rice, tender and juicy chicken, onions, warm bread, and a fresh salad -- all for around $15, which feels like a steal these days. The standout for me was the salad dressing -- hands down the best I've ever had. I could honestly drink it. Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and made with care. Portions are generous enough that you'll likely have leftovers, and it's the kind of meal that keeps you full and happy for hours. Casual, quick, and consistently delicious -- I'd absolutely come back and recommend this spot to anyone looking for solid Mediterranean food in Detroit.

I feel like they wanted me to pay for a plate of food I didn't like and sent back so they added all these weird charges to my bill to make up for the food they lost when I sent it back!
