Pleasant service, friendly staff and EXCELLENT food. The Tabouli salad was the best I’ve ever had. I’ll be back for sure.
Here is the best greek restaurant and one of the best Mediterranean. If someone asks me where to try best Mediterranean, Greek, Turkish type of cuisine here is there. Octopus both cold and warm appetizer is great. Calamari, shrimp skewers, gyros and all others I tried, nothing disappointed me as originally coming from that region. The only missing thing is ouzo which I understand due to the liquor license. I always forget to take picture as directly jumping into food!
Best Greek in the Twin Cities, as it has been for many years. The dip sampler appetizer not only has great dips but comes with the best pita in the metro. Everything tastes homemade. The carrots that come with a number of dishes have a dill butter flavor that rivals anything you'd cook at home. Gus, the owner, is often present and always personable. Worth a drive across the city if Greek is what you seek.
Finally found a Greek restaurant here in the Twin Cities although in a serendipitous manner after trying to check out Pennisula.The food was prepared well. The warm octopus starter was in a tomato sauce which could stand out on its own. The avgolemono soup had a velvety consistency with sourness from the lemons. The oregano chicken was the highlight of the meal. It was well worth the 40 minutes (as specified in the menu cooking time wise)
Delicious food. Warm and welcoming service.
I got to try this out with my partner on a weekend trip to Minneapolis. I enjoyed the gyros entree as well as the salad and fries that were part of it. The portion sizes were great and filling; I easily had leftovers for the next day. The service was also fast and friendly.
Amazing & unique food! Wonderful staff.We have eaten here twice now and love it!! Such unique & different combinations of food and ingredients. Diverse menu. Things you think wouldn't work together are actually delicious!! Homemade everything! Pricing is very reasonable considering what you get! We experienced wonderful flavors that we have never experienced anywhere else.We will coming back!
We had a larger group go for lunch, some of whom are picky (or less adventurous?) eaters. Everyone found a meal that they enjoyed -- it really was delicious. I felt that the service was attentive, but not overly so. It was relatively busy, but the noise level didn't get too loud. A very nice dining experience.
We had a fine dinner at Christos. I'd like to talk about the star of our meal -- the rack of lamb. It was so tender, perfectly marbled, and well seasoned. I appreciated that we substituted the potatoes with carrots. Nicely priced for the portion of meat and vegetables they serve. The chicken liver entree was well above my expectations since I'm not a chicken liver fan. It was pretty tasty. I wasn't a big fan of the flaming cheese and the octopus was a little chewy. Still enjoyable. Our service was good and I like how spacious and bright the restaurant was. Definitely going back for another round of lamb.
Staff were super friendly and made me feel at home upon entering. I ordered the warm octopus and the Spanikopita. The octopus was so good. It was big chunks stewed in a tomato sauce. Yummy! This is the best Spanikopita in Minneapolis. So light and flaky with a wonderfully creamy center. Everything was perfectly seasoned. My server was amazing. Suck a sweet lady. I wish I could remember her name. Can't wait to try other items on the menu.
