Just go...The food is very good. The service and everyone you meet is nice (even the people parking the cars). Did I mention the food is incredible and you get soup with your entree? Just go...

Ordered for carryout through their website. Arrived on time. Was ignored while the host answered a phone call as I opened my mouth to say hello.Waited 30 mins past the pickup time while other customers were in and out with their orders. No offer to make anything right. They seem to not care about customers who aren't regulars. Food was fine but almost everything under seasoned, very small portions of lamb (which was missing the potatoes it was supposed to come with) and octopus, and very overpriced. The best things were the dips, spanakopita, and spinach rice. It was very busy in the restaurant and many people seemed to be regulars, but that won't be us. What a disappointment. As an aside, the valet parking is a disaster as well.

My new favorite Greek restaurant in the Chicagoland area. The food here reminds me exactly of the food I had in Greece. I've been here once before in 2016, but the service wasn't as great. It's under new management and wow! I can tell everything is so much better than the last time I was here. You get so much bang for your buck. Huge portions and every entree comes with 2 sides. Make sure to get the Ekmek for dessert Will be back again soon! Thank you Psistaria

In 2022 we ended up having a wedding rehearsal here and it was a huge hit amongst Greek and non Greek individuals. We have since moved from the area, but have come here at least once a year to enjoy truly Greek cuisine. Over this last weekend, the day before Easter, we came here and ended up feasting. The mini kabobs on their appetizer menu were more like traditional souvlaki you'd find in Greece but on smaller skewers. (Note if you order the kabob meal the meat is much larger and more American). We both agreed the appetizer is the way to go to enjoy a local but authentic souvlaki.It was incredibly busy, but we really enjoyed our food and the many leftovers. The ambiance was a little loud, but it didn't feel crowded despite it being packed. The only thing I would recommend is the frappe being served in a class cup. Bravo

Great food and atmosphere! I came here on a Saturday night, and it was very busy. All of the food I ordered was flavorful and delicious. The portions are also very large and easy to share. The service was also excellent as well. I definitely will come back to try more of the dishes.

Wow! We'd driven by this place so many times and always noticed it was packed. Tonight I was craving moussaka as it had been far too long since I'd had it and this was one of the only places close by that served it. Now I understand why the popularity! For a crowded place, the service was exceptional and what you'd expect from a much pricier restaurant.The saganiki was beyond delicious and a generous amount of it! Accompanied that with an outstanding chop salad. Then perfect avgolemono as part of the moussaka dinner, and of course the perfectly spiced dish itself. Wish we had room for dessert but will definitely be back.Tip: go on a weekday and use the valet. So worth it!

Psistaria... Yum!YumYum!I usually start off with the pork kabobs(lots of lemons) & some nice warm, toasted bread with a variety of traditional Greek spreads! I highly recommend the Branzino which comes to the table whole then ever so carefully deboned by our kind server. The service is great here! Always... my eyes are too big for my stomach & they split our sides or make smaller plates for us because it's a feast! Everything I've ever ordered in the bustling, family owned restaurant has been fantastic! It's a cute restaurant which has redone the bar over the years I've been coming here! One thing I will STRONGLY SUGGEST is get the Ekmek! It is the best, most authentic Ekmek dessert I've ever had & I've been all over Greece! Forget Greektown for the moment & try this gem right off 94 & Touhy East. You won't regret it!Chef's kiss! Highly Recommend!

Great food always. We do carry out since it's usually crowded. We have so many favorite dishes, I couldn't choose the best. And if you decide to eat there they have the flaming sagsnaki like the old Diana's Opaa!

The food is always amazing! Servers are nice as is all of the staff. I have been here many times. It gets crazy busy so be prepared if you are trying for peak hours. The only thing that I can find is a minus is they no longer do combo plates. But the food is fantastic!!
