Acropolis

Humble establishment with exquisite Greek cuisine. Wait staff is courteous and knowledgeable. A mousaka to die for, excellent lamb and delightful desserts. They even pay attention to the side salads - so delicious.Come hungry. Leave satisfied.

FABULOUS FOOD!The meat on the gyros is the tastiest I have ever had. I will admit I don't eat A LOT of gyros, but I've had enough to know that this meat is special. Perfect combo of toppings on a great pita as well. And it's reliably good each time you order. The soups are amazing as well. Definitely recommending!

Calamari, Onion Soup, as starters. Was delicious. Really liked the house salad. Had stuffed peppers and was very good. I'll be back again for more. Loved the place, but it is small so id stay away on busy nights

I came here for the prix fixe menu and left having only ordered the soup and salad. I've since returned four times and can't seem to get past the soup and salad, it's that good! I recommend the 4 onion soup which is an interesting lightly creamy onion broth topped with a puff pastry crust. The puff pastry mixes with the broth and makes for a really filling bowl of soup. For the salad, I get the Acropolis salad with grilled shrimp. The salad comes with Romaine lettuce, Roma tomato, blue cheese, fresh cucumber, onion, Kalamata olive, and bacon with a side of balsamic vinaigrette. I've always had great service but this place is packed on Friday and Saturday night so you may have to wait for a table. Acropolis has a real Metairie vibe. It's locals serving locals and I like it!

This is a long time favorite of my family. And I've taken my Mom here 2x in the last year or so. The dining room is small and they seem to do a brisk takeout business. I love their spinach pie (spanakopita) and whatever is on the special board is always a good choice. They offer 4 courses (soup, salad, entree and dessert) for a price. They also offer just 2 for a different price (soup or salad and entree). I had flounder wrapped in filo with a lemon dill sauce last weekend. STUNNING! And huge! I ate the 2nd half for dinner a night or two later and it was still delicious. Mom got a gyro and was a happy camper and my brother got a grilled mahi and said it was yummy too. We also had the selection of appetizer plate and the spinach pie and the tzatziki were the standouts. They do have a full bar but I've never had a drink here for whatever reason. There is a small parking lot in the front but a larger one (with accessible access) in the back.

My favorites are the philo flounder and Kissimi Hamburger (shaved steak and gyro) among many others. Servers are second-to- none.

I've eaten here at lunch MANY times and had dinner here several times and it has always been very good. They always have at least 2 different fish specials for lunch along with several other very tasty options. You get a very large fish portion compared to almost all the other area restaurants. I especially love when they have Amberjack and Acropolis easily gives you three times as much fish as a comparable special at Drago's. You get a choice of soup or salad along with your lunch special and the soups are usually the way to go (they have this amazing 6 onion soup with a pastry top that you need to sample ASAP). They have chicken, meat, and kabob specials that are also delicious. I've also ordered from the menu and found everything to be very well done.They also have several Italian dishes and they are very tasty and I really like the lasagna. They usually have at least one pasta special during lunch and it is a LARGE portion and usually very good. They also have many excellent Greek versions of dishes you also find in Middle Eastern food such as kabobs, stuffed grape leaves, and hummus showing the wide reach of Greek culture. If you don't arrive before noon (sometimes before 11:30) then there can be a long wait to be seated as this is a very popular place. Parking can fill up rapidly in the front and there is additional parking in the back with a back entrance that is easy to miss if you don't know it is there. This place is definitely worth a visit and some really nice folks working here.My video review of Acropolis is here:https://youtu.be/ORSYcI61gJI

We came here for the first time a few weeks ago and we're already back! All the food we had was delicious and fresh. I got the greek salad with chicken and the 6 onion soup. My husband got the chicken shawarma and the falafel app and he loved both. Restaurant is small but the decor makes it feel larger. Service was good as well. 10/10!

Both sides of the lake. Excellent food and friendly service. The onion soup is an amazing. Will return.

I had just a small takeout order of their onion soup. I called and made sure there was no sugar or MSG. I do however think there's a little flour but I'm not sure. Their staff are helpful and kind. Hannah is courteous and it's always a pleasure to walk in and be greeted by her. The soup is delicious.
