The Best thing I can say about this restaurant is it has nice clean bathrooms. I've never seen a kebab served as a big sloppy piled-up mess as this was. Kabobs come on a stick and are nice and neat. I didn't want the potatoes so instead of serving me a reasonably priced Greek salad they charged me 3:30 on a 1950 plate of slop. The dolma was dry and tasteless The meat smelled like it had seasoning on it but it was completely tasteless as was the chicken or the gyro I will never go back there again. All served on a paper divided plate and plastic ware for a lunch for two people that cost almost $50 really?The parking lot is a jumbled mess as well there was nothing I liked about this restaurant It was a complete turn off. For two lunches with one tea and one water I spent $49 ridiculous.

Very busy place with people bumping into each other. The restaurant should control flow of people trying to pick up the food.

Only come here if you want your vehicle vandalized and your stuff stolen. Stopped here for a quick late lunch to treat my daughter after she had been sick all week. Second day in a row I was told by the police this happened in the exact same parking spot… front row parking to the front door of the restaurant. They know about this and know it is an issue. They need security at this location that no one seems to care about this happening. Family vacation cancelled (we were on our way out of town) and my 6 year old daughter is terrified, inconsolable and keeps saying the bad guys are going to get her tonight when she sleeps. Please get security at this location ASAP. Houston is just the worst right now! ?***Edit on the food*** super pricey for a Greek lunch. Two adults and one child $62 and $17 worth of Greek cakes for two adults and one child. Gyro plate was extremely greasy where the grease was on other foods on the plate and the feta fries were cold. Hummus needed salt, pepper and lemon. Husband had a gyro sandwich $10 with a side of green beans $6 - both too salty. $79 lunch + $500 deductible to fix our car window = $579 outing to Niko Nikos and four hours of our day.

My first time here. Not at all what I was expecting, but great. You order at the counter, they give you a pager and you pick up your order when it’s ready. I had the Greek meatball plate, and loved it. And the sangria I had with it was good too. I would have been happy with just the pita bread and tzatziki sauce, it was so good.Then I saw the coffee bar, and gelatos, and pastries. OMG. The Greek coffee was hot, thick and delicious. The lemon gelato was sinfully delicious. I can’t wait to go back next time I’m in the area.

Great experience! It's definitely a lot of food too and everything was good. I went with a few work colleges. It was busy when we were here but they got though the crowd quickly and had seating available. I will say it was a bit loud inside once we had our food and were seated.I would love to come back again and try some more dishes!

Went here with a girlfriend because we craved Greek food. Let me say this.. the food was amazing. I had the gyro plate wit pita and a Greek salad, my friend had the chicken plate. Food was absolutely amazing. My gyro meat was mildly seasoned but salt was on the table to adjust to my liking. Awesome! After lunch we tried the pastries and the ice cream. Oh my God. The ice cream is 100% authentic European in taste. I got my favorite combo lemon-hazelnut. It tasted like I was back home in Europe. Absolutely wonderful. Best ice cream in all of Houston. They need to guard the recipe. My friend had the strawberry ice cream and it was actual strawberry ice cream, not the American "ice cream" that has way too much sugar in it and no natural ingredients. It didn't even taste like sugar, but freshly pressed strawberries.I can't say enough positive things about this place. Sure, it's not 100% authentic and European style Greek food is much tastier, but this is the best Greek food I have had in the many years I've lived in the US. Will bring friends and family here in the future because this place is amazing.

Today was my first time trying the hamburgers. They are worth every penny and you have your choice of french fries, baked potatoes or rice.They are cooked when you order it so we had to wait a while and we decided to take them to go.We ordered the Athenian mushroom burger, bacon Kasseri burger and the cheeseburger special. All perfect and delicious huge patties. You won't be disappointed.Gotta try the desserts next time, they have all kinds of pastry and gelato.

fast service, excellent food and portions, good ambiance!

great food! amazing desserts and great prices too. even if you are just in the mood for some pastries. most are 2 for $3.

I need my Pasticcio and Mythos.
