I never expected to eat the most delicious Greek food I've ever tasted in Germany, of all places! This was my first meal after arriving in Europe, and the server went out of his way to make it special. The ambiance was spectacular with candlelight tables and relaxing music. I ordered the Farmer's Salad, but I was brought soup and bread with a delicious spread before dinner and a cinnamon sugar caramel fried dough dish after the main course for dessert. The salad was exceptional, of course, as were all of the other dishes served. The price was extremely reasonable given the quality of the meal and the top-notch service. 10/10 would come here again! Edit: They only take cash, so make sure to have some on hand when you come here. There is an ATM nearby if you need one, though. read more

What a great place for a great dinner!!! Visiting our son locally, looked for a restaurant we would all enjoy and came upon Metaxa Greek. Wow. So glad we did. We normally enjoy Greek, being from FL, and located Metaxa. From the outside appearance right through to the seating. Sat at a nice table by the window, they offer great appetizers but before even ordering they bring you grilled bread with a dipping sauce, a bowl of soup and a very flavorful salad, all at no charge. We ordered 3 different dinners and 3 drinks. Souvlaki, gyro platter and gyro "bake". All were great! Very plentiful. Upon finishing, we were delivered a homemade desert of deep fried dough balls drizzled with honey/chocolate and dobs of whip cream. Very tasty and again, at no charge!! Then Yanni, the owner, dropped by with free shots of ouzos, which he too had with us!!! Very great service and the personal touch of the owner is what makes a dining experience memorable and worth what you pay. All though we leave on the am, we will be back and for sure will go there a few times while visiting again. My son all ready plans on going back next weekend. Do yourself a solid and go check out Metaxa, you will be happy you did and for sure will have a great dining experience!! read more

I tried this place once and thought it was just okay, maybe I ordered the wrong thing. However, service was excellent both times. I came back 4 months later and it was absolutely delicious. The gyro plate with fries and their homemade tzatziki was so good. And you have to get the desert which was fried dough balls with a raspberry sauce and ice cream. Our table of four shared it and ate it all. So good! The decor was cute and it was an overall good vibe. The owner is really friendly and always takes a after dinner shot with you. I wish I would have came here more for the short 6 months I was in Ramstein. read more

The place has plenty of parking so driving here is no trouble at all! The decor is insane in a great way, it made me feel like I knew a little bit of Greece just by coming in here and experiencing the vibes of the decor. The staff is amazing and super friendly! They speak great English and communication was very easy and pleasant. Cappuccino- the drink serving size is pretty good and the flavour is pretty nice as well. Once you order they bring you a little basket with freshly toasted bread and a pretty yummy dip. STUFFED MUSHROOM- this is a very good snack before the meal, the amount is good for sharing and the taste was pretty dreamy. The meal came with a house salad that had a pretty interesting and delicious dressing. LAMB IN METAXA SAUCE- I cannot say I liked this dish, but I think it is not the dishes fault, I think that I was not a fan of the way lamb is made in the greek style. I felt it was a bit too slaty for me but the friend I was with got the same dish and she loved it. I really liked that the dish came with a nice tasting sauce and plenty cheese. FRENSH FRIES- the fries here were pretty good, but keep in mind if you like condiments ask for them right away as it is not customary here in this country to serve any meals with condiments. After the meal the owner gave us complementary desert and a couple of aperitif shots and I thought that was very nice of him. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Our son and dil treated us to dinner here. The owner was so kind and gracious. Even gave us some shots of Ouzo before and after our meal! My hubby and both had the pork kabobs and they were delicious! The kids had a platter for two and the portions were so generous we all could have shared it. Ended the night with a little sweet bread treat. My first time at a Greek restaurant and I enjoyed it! Great wine selection too! read more

Great Greek food overall...highly recommend the special of the day and the desert at the end really tops it off!

The Food was amazing, the place was really clean and the manager/owner was walking around handing out free desert and shots of something. Service was great as well. read more

Highly recommend! I really enjoyed eating here on the patio when the weather was nice. It was great enjoying the live music and cold beer. The food we got was delish. The owner would consistently come around with these shooters that taste like black licorice, it's a digestive apparently. I'm not a big fan of black licorice so I would normally turn them down, but my husband has them! Looking forward to enjoying the patio again when the weather is nicer! read more

Racist!!! The young men who worked there stared at my husband , who is Black and from NH USA! So bad that when we got up.. two of the family members were just standing there like the mob staring us down! Horrible ..! Beautiful place, horrible parking, horrible bees and bugs.. food was like having a doner.. nothing special, fries like McDonald's, then the owner didn't want to do ouzo with us, so we got dessert and everyone else got that. I have never seen such ignorance.. horrible experience .. we ate and dashed., Horrible.. read more

****CASH ONLY - KNOW BEFORE YOU GO**** Came in with a party of 3. Plenty of parking, it was a little tight for larger SUVs and trucks, but not a big issue. Apologies ahead of time, didn't pay a ton of attention to the name of the food. I got a dish from the specialty section. Our meal started with bread (plus a specialty sauce which was tasty) a small cup of soup and salad. I was impressed with the fresh herbs on our salad... it looked beautiful. My husband ordered the lamb with metaxa sauce (at the recommendation of our waitress) and it came with fresh fries. He said the lamb was pretty good, would have rated it as 4 (out of 5). I ordered the dish which I believe was gyro meat with the metaxa sauce. It was delicious (5 out of 5). It looks very similar to the lamb dish (topped with cheese) but the flavor is a bit more cohesive. They gifted us a dessert (light pastry covered in something sweet). The guy whom I believe is the owner came by our table to visit and was very kind to us as we paid (btw our group was composed of multiple shades from light to dark and we had ZERO issues with the staff - important based on the vague but serious accusation posted by someone in a review yesterday). Least favorite thing from the visit: the bees! Never got stung though, so all is good. We look forward to trying more dishes here! read more

First timers at Metaxa and I am OBSESSED!!! Such great food, service, and ambiance. I truly feel like you couldn't go wrong with anything you order on the menu. Would definitely recommend!!! Also the employees speak English which provided more comfort as we have only been in Germany for a few days. Will definitely be visiting again for the dessert! read more

From the moment we walked in until we left, we felt like part of the family! We were greeted warmly, served DELICIOUS food, and the owner even brought some shots of ouzo out of the blue. The meals are served with a small side salad, a cup of yummy avgolemono soup, and warm bread with some kind of deliciously spicy spread. This is the best Greek Food I've had in Germany yet. Everything was very reasonably priced. WARNING: CASH ONLY! The ambiance is very cute and warm, and they have outside seating. We showed up about 30 minute before closing, and they were pretty full, and by the time we left and hour later they were even busier. However we were sat right away and the service was fast and friendly. read more

Found this place on a Sunday evening in which we just had a taste for some good Greek food. It did not disappoint. The staff/owner was so welcoming and provided a great experience. Food was delicious, service was great and atmosphere perfect. I recommended to a colleague to try and they told me their experience was great also! Will visit again read more

After Big Emma's "lost" our reservation and turned us away, the owners at Metaxa found a table for us, even though they were quite busy, and we had no reservation with them. The owner & family have wonderful personalities, and treat their guests with joy and love. After my family ordered and I could not decide, I asked the owner to pick my meal for me. He did so with no hesitation l, and I was more than happy with his selection. I may start ordering like that more often! In the end, we were glad that circumstances lead us to dine here. It was only our second day in Germany, but we will be customers of Metaxa for life. We very much enjoyed everything's out this experience. Thank you! read more

I haven't felt like "part of the family" from restaurant service in a long while, but Metaxa's got it! I wasn't sure what to expect from the place, but I loved the vibe they had. Both their indoor and outdoor seating was pleasant. You won't regret getting their stuffed mushrooms; they are a significant portion (we split between two), but do it! I ordered their lamb chops, which were cooked to perfection. The meet was very tender, and retained much of its juice. The tzatziki was light and refreshing accompanied with their fries. The owner was our server; he was gracious and knowledgeable. He gave great recommendations, pleasant conversation with what seemed like every table, and brought out liqueur for the guests after their meals, which was thoughtful. A wonderful dining experience! read more

Metaxa - Greek Near Me - Ramstein-Miesenbach, RP

I usually just leave positive reviews but yesterday I had the worst experience at Metaxa in Ramstein. I've been there several times and often recommended this place to others. The food was always great and so was the service that's why we wanted to visit the Greek restaurant during our Germany vacation. Yesterday I ordered the Bifteki with Metaxa sauce and it was great until I found a baked in hair halfway trough my food. The waitress came and asked how the food was since my plate was still full. I discretely let her know because I didn't want to make a big deal about it and I know things like this can happen. She took the plate and told me that she will let the kitchen know and we asked for the check. Another waiter brought us the check and we paid the full amount, we didn't expect a discount or anything I just wanted to make sure that she let the kitchen know. He went back inside and told us to wait a moment. 10 minutes later when we were actually about to leave the owner came out with his wallet confronted me in the meanest way possible and made it seem like it's my fault for bringing the issue up there was no apology or anything. He put 20€ on the table, pet me on my shoulder and said "I don't need costumers like that, don't come back to my restaurant". Then he did the same thing to my husband and told him "that's a good woman you got" obviously he meant it in a sarcastic way. We had enough took the 20€ got up and walked to our car. While we walked to the car he raised his voice called me a "bi***" in front of all the costumers which were mostly Americans. He stared at me very confrontationally but we proceed to drive off. This is the worst experience I ever had in a restaurant. Again I'm usually not the one to write anything bad about a business or complain about things. I was respectful and calm the entire time but he had a temper, was intoxicated and overall super mean. Apparently they can't handle a complaint which was honestly just me kindly informing them about the issue. Safe to say I will never recommend this place ever again. read more

Metaxa - Acropolis plate - Greek Near Me - Ramstein-Miesenbach, RP

These four stars are mainly because of the atmosphere and the friendliness of the staff and owner. You can tell the owner really loves what he's doing. And you can tell this is a local hangout. I would definitely hangout here if I was a local. I came in originally to get takeout. But I decided to eat in. I'm glad I did because after awhile there was live music. Just enhanced the lovely atmosphere. I had the Rumpsteak special. It comes with a side Greek salad, soup, and some bread with tomato sauce as starters. Yummy!!!! All of it! The tomato sauce that accompanied the bread has a kick to it that you take a bite and feel the kick and once it wears off, you need another bite to quench the desire to taste the heat again. It was weird. Delicious. Anyway, the main dish came with fries and rice and onions. The fries were good. The steak was like a sirloin almost. I asked for it medium but it was a little overcooked in some parts. It was still tender and not tough to eat. The only thing and the reason this place isn't getting 5 stars, is that the steak was not seasoned as well as I would have liked it to be. I usually don't put sauce on my steaks. But I did use the tzatzaki (sp) sauce that came as garnish and the onions to kind of flavor it up. But still overall great experience. read more

Looks like a hole in the wall, but has a nice seating room inside. Good Mexican food, lots of protein in dishes, good prices. Chinchy on salsa. Sodas are flat, need carbonation badly. Limited wait staff but faster than most area restaurants. Restaurant does not adhere to online advertised hours, closes at random so you never know if it's open. read more

The food is phenomenal. Yanni is a great man who loves his patrons. The place is cozy, lively and will have a Greek festival night once every few months. Not much else to say, except, get yourself and your family there. My favorite Greek restaurant ever; and I have been to many a Greek places. read more

The atmosphere of Metaxa is great! The owners really make you feel at home and the decor is very traditional Greek. We had their Metaxa gyros with their special sauce. After dinner, the owner brought us a traditional dessert for free and ouzo. The only problems we had was paying for the bill took a while and we had to go to the counter to pay which is no big deal. He was very personable and I would recommend this place to anyone with a Greek craving. read more

Went with a group of 8 people for lunch from work. I wasn't aware of this Greek restaurant next to a used car lot. We sat outside and was greeted immediately by the owner who took our orders. Very warm and sincere man who definitely enjoys life. I ordered the shrimp salad and it was delicious. He also provided italian bread with a spicy tomato spread and a cup of soup that was amazing. After lunch we were were served fried dough with cinnamon and whipped cream... sooo good. The prices were a little high but when you figure in the soup and dessert definitely worth the price! Definitely check it out! read more
