- All dishes were fresh, flavorful, delicious and exceeded everyone's expectations. My salad was fresh and perfect (note *whole olives have pits in them) We all plan to return. What we ate - PAPOUTSAKIA Roasted eggplant stuffed with caramelized onions, spices, tomatoes, and greek herbs topped with bechemel pine nuts, and parsley with a taverna salad and veggie sticks (V, VG) (amazing spice combination compliments the eggplant) -GYROS Broiled beef and lamb, with tomatoes, parsley onions, and tzatziki (DF) (Best Gyros ever) -LIGO LACHANO Crispy brussel sprouts with greek olives, capers, lemon zest garlic, parsley, and olive oil. Avgoaoli for dipping.( a delightful treat, worth the add on if you like brussel sprouts, such a fun way to eat them.) *note*dipping sauce not vegan but I didn't miss it. The flavor was amazing without it. The experience- The waiters were excellent, the seating was easy and comfortable. I enjoyed the restaurant setting plus location in the 5th street market. I picked this for our lunch because I wanted delicious vegan options for me and they had plenty on menu without me needing to ask for special accommodations. I just mentioned it and the waitress kept my order vegan as asked (no cheese or dairy butter added, or animal parts or honey) I recommend always mentioning your needs when ordering at any restaurant just in case. The waitress listened and mentioned the sauce on the side of the appetizer we ordered was not vegan just in case , I soooo appreciated that thoughtful gesture. Over all Poppi's Anatolia is a gem. The flavors and quality will not disappoint. read more

Poppi's Anatolia - PAPOUTSAKIA - Amazing flavors!!! (Vegan friendly) - Indian Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Thankfully Poppi's moved out of the dying downtown core so nice to enjoy a gourmet Mediterranean Meal without dodging drug addicts and the mentally ill. Front of house service was friendly and accommodating. Interior was fresh and clean. We will be back. read more

Dinner was delicious! From vegetarian dishes to lamb, from cocktails to dessert. Four of us thoroughly enjoyed everything, including the Surprise Hit: skordalia! We nearly fought over it on the shared appetizer plate. Fortunately, we are civilized people. Attentive, friendly service is rare anymore, so I especially appreciated it here. The only thing keeping this from a five star review was the copious quantity of perfume worn by our server. It interfered with not only the overall enjoyment of the evening, but at times, the flavor of the food. read more

I used to love Poppi Anatolia -the old one was so delicious. I was excited to try the new location. The service was great - very friendly & attentive. Sadly - food was just ok. -the peasant bread was too dry - I got lamb souvlaki and. It was ok. The rice was crunchy and not too flavorful. My partner had falafel & he was disappointed by lack of flavor. The "Greek " salad had brown lettuce , & was all white onion. and no olives ? Why not red onion - All around it was ok. But not great read more

New location, still the same great food. Red snapper and Greek coffee! Remains the best restaurant in Eugene.

Me and a few of my friends, all Oregon alumni back in town for the Nebraska vs. Oregon game, stumbled upon Poppi Anatolia looking for a spot to grab dinner. We left absolutely dumbfounded by the experience. First of all, the food was fantastic. Compliments to the chef, absolutely delicious. Now here's where things get weird... My buddy and I ordered the EXACT SAME DISH, the Kota Psiti. However, when the food got to the table, the portion sizes were COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. And I'm not talking about a little bit bigger. I mean, he had a chicken leg, and I had an entire bird on my plate. I mean, if the waitress had come over and told us an alien descended from Mars and swapped our plates, it might have been more believable. Instead, we were told the difference came down to dark meat vs. light meat. DARK VS. LIGHT?!?! Are you kidding me?! We proceeded to laugh at the hysterical explanation and enjoy our dinner regardless. The chefs absolutely saved the experience because, again, the food was DELICIOUS. 3 out of 5 stars, but we had a great time. Thanks, Poppi Anatolia! read more

I am so happy! I saw this yesterday on one of my walkabouts. LOL! It looks like Poppi' is coming to 5th street in October I believe! It will be in the Old Sushi pure/ Pho King store on the second floor with street side entrance and inside entrance close to the Elevator for those who need an elevator lift. I love Poppi's food. It's delicious! Give it a try. read more

Poppi's Anatolia - Indian Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

My fiance and I love to check out new to us restaurants around town and we had heard really great things about Poppis. First thing I noticed was a female bartender! Such a green flag, drinks were amazing. We got to try food we hadn't before and it was so fun and flavorful without feeling heavy and too rich. What took the cake (besides the actual spice cake, which I highly recommend) when it came time for the check it was placed in front of me (the woman in the relationship) no shade to any places that automatically assume the guy is paying but this felt really mindful and sweet. Great food, cute place, good service. Left no crumbs, literally. read more

I was downtown for the Saturday Market today... but also planned on stopping by a certain food truck I have been wanting to try. Food truck was supposed to open today at 12:30... but nobody ever showed up. So went down the street to Poppi's! And I am glad I did... greeted when I walked in, and was told to grab any open seat. Server showed up quickly with water (it was hot and sunny outside and I needed it, lol!)... and a menu. I chose to keep it light and simple and ordered the Gyro Pita. It was delicious... and had a fair amount of meat, and the Pita was perfect! Staff was great... and I love the atmosphere too. read more

The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly. Please be aware that street parking is required and may involve a fee. The restaurant is somewhat small, so depending on the day and time of your visit, you may experience a wait for a table. Their menu is quite extensive. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals, including two daily specials and a couple of appetizers to share. We found their mango lassies to be more tart and yogurt-forward than mango-flavored. read more

Very quaint Middle-eastern/Indian restaurant that's been in downtown Eugene seems like forever. Prices for dinner come to about $25-$40/each so sort of a special dinner place. Flavors are strong, portions are less so. There are better Middle-eastern eateries and also better Indian diners in Eugene/Springfield so Poppi's works for those groups who can't decide or wanna try 2 cuisines. Good service and cozy yet sort of noisy setting make for an enjoyable meal. Truly eclectic in every which way. read more

i got the chicken. They need to ask if you want dark or light chicken. I got one leg and my buddy got a whole chicken. Absolutely classless, wasn't on the menu to prefer your color. Do not get the chicken!!!! read more

The new location is nice! The service was friendly and prompt. I always love the Saganaki. I had the spring lamb chops special, which was delicious. The crispy Brussels sprouts were also a hit. I want to come back and try Greek night! read more

I am sad after stopping in. About 26 minutes total is how long I stayed. I am a first timer, was seated politely & ordered quickly. I was excited for the soup which came out flavorless, salt and pepper did nothing. They were happy to take it off the bill, something I really appreciated. (Though it was +$4 with my meal and they had it as a separate item for $7.) My hummus and pita came out-delicious! Glorious. Truly some tasty hummus. The pita was soft and fluffy-it saved the whole mood. My pita was nothing to write home about, bland chicken in my opinion but maybe that's how they're served? Again, I'm a first timer. I decided to give half the pita a go, but gave up after my water glass sat on the corner of the table unfilled while the staff chatted in the back. There were a total of 2 people who needed attention besides myself at the time. I hope they leave happier than I did. I took my remaining food to hopefully feed a person outside. Lesson learned. 2 stars for the hummus. read more

Marvelous dinning at Poppi's new 5th St Market location. Sunday is "Greek Menu Nite" - chock full of Greek culinary classics & specialties. TOTAL YUMM!!!!! Reservations a must if you go on Sunday! Ambiance- crisp, unpretentious decor; lots of tables, and small bar with seating. Utterly delicious food- be prepared to wait if restaurant is swamped. Worth it! read more

From seeing Yelp reviews, my daughter chose this restaurant for my bday dinner. All in all a good experience. Our server was sweet. The service however was slow. I absolutely loved the spanakopita and the hummus. The lavender lemon drop was delicious however extremely tiny- consumed in only 3 sips. The potatoes in tomato sauce were quite unremarkable. It was an eclectic yet noisy interior. If in town again I'd stop by for the spanakopita. read more

Service was fantastic, truly, but the new location lacks charm, the lighting is terrible and I was wildly disappointed in the food. I had two familiar dishes from my years of going to the old location and they were dry, bland, and didn't compare with the what it used to be. So many onions on everything, it was odd, and the broccoli was burnt, limp, and smothered in cold onions, the shrimp so shriveled and flavorless, I could barely eat it, and the Greek salad was far removed from anything one might encounter in Greece. i have loved the food there for years and was not once disappointed. Ultimately, the whole experience made me sad for what we have lost. I'd love to see the new owners succeed and i hope that improvements can be made. Maybe i was there on an off night. read more

New location is great, big space, colorful decor, convenient locaction. My two companions enjoyed their dishes, but mine was bland and uninteresting. Having traveled in Greece, lived and worked in the Middle East, I'd have to say that some things about the service was strange. We had hummus and feta cheese appetizers, tasty but served without olive oil or pita bread. Can't imagine you eat them with your silverware! So had to order bread and the oil separately. Service was somewhat slow at times; I nearly gave up on my after dinner coffee. When it finally came, I got handed just the small cup, no saucer, no spoon, again odd in my experience. Not sure we will come again... read more

The staff was amazing and accommodating! I went with two other friends and all of our food and cocktails were delicious! Our server Rachel was awesome and quick and very knowledgeable and helped explain the different greek spirits they use in their cocktails. She also gave us amazing food recommendations and told us to get the brussel sprouts which were amazing I would highly recommend! This is a great spot for a nice dinner out and will be our new go to! read more

Ok, seriously love this place but the prices for what I got was well underwhelming at most. Crazy 1 skewer of meat and an underwhelming pita on top of under seasoned rice and a ok salad was like 23$ mind boggling. The meat was amazing but holy cow. I've been here a lot but wow, kinda blows, I'd love to go back more as I love the staff and the service, but I'd probably order something else next time and hope that is worth it. read more

I had a good horiatiki salad here. lots of other vegetarian options. Good food. Efficient and fun service. the location is in a fun and interesting neighborhood in town. Lots of interesting people. read more

As a long-time Poppi's customer, I was really excited to see that the restaurant was opening in a new site at the 5th St. Market. We've eaten at Poppi's 3 times for lunch in the past couple of months. The service has been great. Each time, we ordered the same appetizer, gyros, & soup. The food was excellent the first time, & the last two times were not so good. I'd like to see this restaurant do well, & to improve, it seems that they primarily need to focus on making sure the food is warm. Also, they need to redo some of their lunch menu offerings. The dishes are quite expensive, so they need to find a way to make them more upscale. Otherwise, it doesn't seem worth it to spend so much money on basic food. For the last lunch, we spent about $55 for 2 non-alcoholic beverages, 1 appetizer, 1 soup, & 1 sandwich with the tip. read more

Super unprofessional staff , horrible food quality. The servers are teenagers without knowledge of how to give a proper service to the costumers. I hate to say this but I felt racism in their actions. Please avoid Poppi's Anatolia. Not recommended this place. read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner here. It has such a cozy vibe and transports you away from the downtown area into a more intimate dining space. The food was really nice. Lamb souvlaki was tender, juicy, and well seasoned. We had a selection of mezze. The melanzatosalata was a bit different than others I've had, as their version includes what I assume to be tahini or some other creamy ingredient (as opposed to smoked/roasted eggplant with cucumber). It was more like a baba ganoush in that respect. The potato mezze was my favorite, but the levels of raw garlic are not for the faint of heart! My issue with all our mezze (including the artichoke) was that it was fridge-cold. I don't mind dishes being served "cold/chilled" and prepared in advance, but it was like you took leftovers right out your fridge and bit into it - you know the taste and sensation I mean. Cold on the teeth and all. So I would have preferred that they bring it up to room temp before serving to have a better eating experience. Service was really kind and lovely. We hope to come back to try their Indian side of the menu! read more

Had dinner there last night for the first time. Staff was very attentive, friendly and helpful but, to be frank, we were a little disappointed in the food. First the good news; the Greek white wine was very good. The eggplant dip was delicious with pitta bread. The main courses, the fish and lamb were just OK. Rice could have used more spice and my wife's salad was light on dressing. Don't remember name of dessert but, it was tasty. We will try again in that we liked the vibe. read more

Poppi's Anatolia is a cute little restaurant. It kinda feels like a 2 in 1, since they serve both Greek/Mediterranean food and Indian food (I'm not sure where the connection comes from, but as a lover of both types of food, it definitely piqued my interest). This trip I only tried the Greek food, so I'll definitely have to come back to try out their Indian fare as well. We ordered the Skordalia appetizer, the Gyros Plate, and the Spanakopita. The Skordalia portion was HUGE (we ended up requesting more pita), and the flavor was amazing. The bite of the garlic was prominent and accented by the zing from the lemon. The Gyros Plate was good. The beef was a little tough, but the lamb was cooked perfectly. I was expecting the gyros to either be premade, or with the pita on the side, but the pita was stacked underneath the pile of meat and tzatziki, which was puzzling. The pita was also a little bit over toasted, but softened up with the food. The salad was crisp and a nice complement to the heavier flavors of the gyros. I recently discovered Spanakopita and was eager to try another rendition. I was not disappointed. The spinach and feta was creamy and the filo was crispy. I loved every bite and wished there was more. Unfortunately, the spanakopita shone so brilliantly that the sides felt a bit lackluster in comparison. read more

First of all, we are trying to eat clean these days, and chose Poppi's Anatolia in hopes of a good protein with vegetables. The roast chicken was absolutely delicious!!! So was the Mediterranean salad. We didn't have anything else, but if you are looking for warm and flavorful cooking that makes you feel like you are sitting right in the middle of a Greek mama's kitchen, this is the one! read more

I started going to the gym across the street, so we decided to come here after a swim. I have wanted to come here for a long time, and I really wish that I did sooner! The servers are very sweet and friendly. It feels like they are all sort of help each other out. We didn't have a difficult time getting a table. It smelled great in there. The ambiance is rustic, quaint and cute. The kitchen is open so you can sort of see the action while you are dining. I was surprised by the Indian food on a Greek menu, but it offered us a broader choice in a smaller menu. We have been twice now and we ordered the meze platter twice now to try everything on it. The Hummus, and eggplant are super garlicky! In the best kind of way! Loved the artichokes, and potato walnut spread as well. We also really enjoyed the dolmas. They are fruit and moist. The Dahl was simple and tasty. The chicken was really tasty. It was a bone in thigh and leg with potatoes that has a ton of flavor and some zucchini. The skin was perfectly salty and crisp. We also got the pork chop. It was a tad small, but flavorful! They bring you a desert platter when you are done. So you can see all of the dessert options. I've gotten the Baklava. Although it's a bit clunky, I really enjoyed it. It's made with almonds, and honey syrup. What else do you need?? Lol We have decided that this place eats like a really good home cooked meal. Nothing fancy, just super flavorful and delicious. We plan on getting the fried cheese and potato onion fritters next time! Update- got the fried cheese! Get it! It's very filling, but super tasty!!! Yummm! read more

Delicious food, but lunch service has been so, so slow! Twice now. Today, in for my husband's birthday at noon -- 2 glasses of wine took 15 minutes to arrive, our lunch entrees about 30 minutes -- restaurant wasn't even half full! Is it that hard to train and keep wait staff? We feel discouraged from coming back. Husband enjoyed his spanakopita, my chicken pita was so large it was hard to eat. Sigh. read more

Saganaki was sitting in a pool of oil. Spanakopitta was room temp and not tasty. Chicken although it was dark meat was dry. Gyro was OK.. Please let me know if you have better experience, I'm not saying don't try it. Maybe just a bad day for chef. read more

Mid-Mediterranean and slow service. They forgot part of my gyro and I had to check in three times.

We were in town for the day and wanted to try something other than our usual spots. We are happy we did. The staff is super friendly and outgoing.
