I'll definitely be back.

This visit was a little different because the food was amazingly good. As we conversed over dinner, I definitely had to stop and mention just how delicious the food was and ask where it was from.

Everything was soo delicious, my absolute favorites were the addictive hummus and the perfectly seasoned chicken shawerema. I highly, highly recommend a stop in here.

Complimentary hummus was included. My husband and I shared the Vegetable Orzo ($17) as our main. It was rich and delicious. We tried the Ekmek ($11) for dessert. It's a bit pricey for just a casual meal in the region, but the dishes are a little more elevated and unique.

We had lamb chops, dolmates and braised Lamp with Tomato sauce with Orzo. Rating 4 out of 5 on all of them. We had a 1:30 reservation and thought the place would be busier. My wife and I grew up in the city and would frequently make it down to Greektown. This food would equal Greek Islands - Santorini Pegasus etc... We still enjoy Greek Islands in Oak Brook but last time we were there it was like they wanted to get us in eat and get out!!! If you need to experience Greek Food Chicago Style this place is legit. Not many ethnic options out there anymore other than Italian -Indian -Chinese-Thai ..... please support this place as these types are disappearing and all we'll have left is commercialized ones.

Ordered a gyro and drink, which was $12 and change. Didn't realize it was just the guro, with no side (so something to keep in mind). Gyro was okay, not the hottest, and had an interesting taste (could have been the sauce?), but it was okay. Serving also wasn't huge, but it would be OK if you get fries or a side. Service was good, and place was clean, so that was nice. Overall an okay experience and a solid place for Greek.

February 9, 2026 me and the wife decided we're not cooking. We're going out for dinner…read more So we went to one of our places that we like in the food is good . My wife got her usual chicken. Souvlaki plate and I got a Gyro. Everything was excellent as usual. The only thing I had a problem with the Gyro was not enough meat in the Gyro for what you're paying for it I mean, if you put a two more sliver of meat on there, I wouldn't have mention this but the Gyro was kind of small. So whoever makes up the Guerro's, maybe you need to add just two more sliver of meat on there and your people will be a lot happier and they'll come and get more. So I hope my next Gyro you could put that extra two things of slices of sliver meat on there and make it a little bit better. I'll be happy. I'll order it all the time if we eat there at least four times a month that's the least. Atmosphere it's nice customers that are sitting in there eating food happy and smiling . Staff and chefs are nice and polite. Thank you very much. Everybody have a great day.

It's cool to see the vintage interior designs. We went in the evening and it was pretty quiet. The staff were extremely friendly. I appreciate that they take a couple of minutes to engage with you in conversation. We got an "appetizer" that was a shot of alcohol. I believe it was called an Aperitif drink. The server said it's a tradition before you start a meal and helps encourage your appetite. It was good. I ordered the lamb burger and fries. It was delcious. It was cooked perfectly with a lot of flavor. I was full after that meal. I had no room for dessert! The prices were reasonable, too. It's a sophisticated yet informal type of restaurant if that makes sense. I don't visit Joliet often, but I would come back and try something else off of the menu.
