Excellent food! I had passed this restaurant multiple times and finally had the chance to come in. I tried the grilled shrimp platter and the soup of the day (chicken shell soup). Both were delicious and came in generous portions. The shrimp, served over rice, was flavorful and perfectly cooked. The soup of the day was also excellent. I'm glad I had leftovers to enjoy later. I will definitely be ordering from here again!

Relatively authentic greek food that's quite delicious. We got the mozzarella sticks to start and I tried the Mixed Platter, which comes with salad, pita and taziki sauce, fries which we swapped them for Greek fries, and oh so much meat. The place was quite empty (only a few people at the bar) when we ate but service was good and we enjoyed the food. Would come back for the food again

Went to this gem in Fishtown. WOW what an amazing gyro. I definitely highly recommend going to this bar and getting anything grilled. The marinade on the beef was pretty tasty and it was perfectly charred. We also got the calamari which was pretty decent but we both agreed we should have gotten something grilled instead. Apparently the owner of this place is in his 90s and still cooks there. He makes a really mean tzatziki sauce. All the people working the bar were so nice! The waitress showed us a back outdoor area. There was so much hidden room. The guy at the bar was apparently related to the owner and he was very vivacious. I learned that "time and being clean" is of the utmost importance. See what pearls of wisdom you will gain!

My friend and I stopped by today for happy hour and cannot wait to come back! It was surprisingly very empty even though the happy hour food and drink deal is incredible!Multiple $5 city wide specials, a lot of good food deals, huge dive bar inside and 2 tables outside. Plus the friendliest most attentive server.Best thing we had were the Greek nachos, which were so unique and delicious. Had all the Greek salad toppings paired with fried pita chips. Came with tzatiki sauce and tasted even better when hot sauce was added. I'm sure paying extra for meat would've elevated it. $6 during happy hour!Second best thing we had were the Dolmades. I loved the fresh pita that came with Skordalia. The puréed mashed potatoes were delicious, but honestly the pita bread that paired with the dish was the star. So warm and fluffy that I wish it came with more! That dish was also only $4 during happy hour. Last thing we tried were the $3 chicken skewers. Nothing mind blowing, but juicy meat that was grilled to perfection and not dry whatsoever.I cannot wait to come back!

Oops, didn't realize this is definitely more of a bar setting with a restaurant--I made plans to grab dinner with a friend here to catch up but it was really loud so kind of hard to hear each other. Still glad we came, because the food was really good! We couldn't eat outside even though there were tables set up, but we sat further away from the bar after ordering our food at the bar and paying our tab in advance. The baba ganoush was so light and refreshing with the pita, a good starter for the meal. I really enjoyed the beef/lamb mix for the gyro and wish the photo did more justice, because there were generous portions of the meat inside. I liked the seasoned fries as well! Honestly surprised by how good this food was for a bar.

Really enjoyed the mixed grill platter. Lots of meat, definitely enough for 2 people. The platter also comes with pita, fries (on bottom) and salad. The chicken was suuuper tender, all the meat was pretty tasty. The cheese on the salad was also surprisingly delightful.It's a bit weird picking up Greek food in a bar but you won't be disappointed! Highly recommend.

Nice hang out spot in fishtown with really good Greek food too. Lively spot with a separate bar and dining area. Food was authentic and delicious and the prices were great for the dinners and drinks.

Decided to have lunch here today. I didn't even know it was here! They only have outdoor seating right now in a move courtyard in the back. You must walk through the restaurant to get to it.Started with the stuffed grape leaves and the feta and olives. I had the spanakopita (spinach pie) and my friend enjoyed the veggie pita sandwich.Everything was fresh and really good!

I'm wondering if my experience was partly negative due to getting delivery versus eating the food fresh at the restaurant. I had heard it was great, so I was confused with how my meal turned out.I ordered the vegetarian sandwich with fries. I thought each item tasted like it had no salt or flavor. The pita was also super soggy. Adding tzatziki kind of helped the situation, but I still tasted very little. I'd try this place again for sure - but only if I dined in the restaurant itself.

If you want cheap drinks and a dive bar, this is a go to. It should almost be a fishtown staple in my opinion. I don't have too much experience with their food as Ive only gotten it twice, but it's pretty average and a little over priced in my opinion. They make a killer cracked pepper and salt fries, but I go there mostly for a great $6 city wide, and cheap beers for Phillies and Sixers games.
