IosRestobar

I didn't know or realize this was here until I was going to lunch with someone and they suggested this place. It's in the spot where "Fare" used to be, so I didn't realize it switched. But glad she suggested coming here as I got to try a new place in the neighborhood. Got there right before noon on a Monday, so had my pick for seating options. By the time we left, the places has filled up a bit more. The place has a clean, bright airy feel with lighting that would probably give a sleek, modern bar vibe. Our server was good - friendly, sweet demeanor, attentive. We ordered our own things, but kind of ended up sharing a couple of the items. I wasn't super hungry, so I just ordered the Hummus spread which came with pita and the Calamari with a ginger ale. My friend got the Chicken Platter an

Ive been to this restaurant a few times and never disappoints. I went during happy hour time and the cocktails are worth,but the size food portion for happy hour were too small, so we ordered from the regular menu. The chicken skewers dish that comes with pita and fries is really good, and my friend had roasted chicken with potatoes. Amazing.

Service was mediocre, pita bread came out cold and burnt. The food didn’t taste fresh. It tasted more like frozen lamb and frozen fries. The aesthetic was nice, super cute but my husband and I will not return.

I’ve gone to IosRestobar twice now and I must say both times the food was phenomenal. As a New Yorker I try not to give Philly too much credit lol, but I must say this is the best Greek restaurant I’ve been to. The lamb chops were so flavorful and tender. The spanakopita were amazing. And the calamari was perfect. This is definitely my go to Greek restaurant here in Philadelphia.

The food and drinks were delicious!! In addition to the flatbread and the shrimp appetizer, we also got a lamb gyro (which was massive). I took the gyro home and it lasted me 2-3 meals. Server was really nice and I will definitely be back.
