“ Authentic Greek place with a nice atmosphere! Greek salad is very good, Tzatziki is also nice, but humus was too salty and had too much lime juice. Overall I recommend this place. ”
“ Fantastic, amazing flavor, generous portions and great prices! Recommended ”
“ Very clean, delicious appetizers and main meals. There are no cocktails only wine. Desserts also delicious. ”
“ I went today and had to ask twice to lower the volume of the music. I could hear the ladies on the other side of the room screaming to hear each other because the music was so loud. I was alone and trying to read on my phone but couldn't concentrate with the loud music. Not until they finally turned it down did the ladies on the other side stopped screaming and I was able to enjoy my meal. ”
“ Easily one of the best places in the city. Cozy atmosphere, nice music that's not too loud, kind service, and fresh tasty food. If spa could be a restaurant - it would be this place. Will come back for sure! ”
“ I went to vacation in Greece many times, and eating at Gyropolus brought me back to these memories! Delicious food, authentic flavor, good service! The lamb gyros is awesome, and try the tzatziki! You can get the gyros as a bowl as well, very original and delicious! All very fresh ingredients. ”
“ We had a good experience. The food was tasty, good portion and fair price. The service was slow and a little inefficient. ( It was necessary to ask for utensils in order to eat my dish already served ) The “Greek atmosphere is original for a tiny place. But it was very noisy from a big group, and allowing big dogs at the small place caused obstacle to go to the the bathroom ”
