★★★★★ 5.0 Steve Stefanidis · Feb 2026

What a wonderful place in the heart of Greektown, Detroit. Everything is home-cooked and made by the best. The food was absolutely wonderful, and the owner is such a great man. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed—not just to enjoy a meal, but to feel right at home. Truly a gem in Greektown!

We stopped here for a late lunch and the food hit different. It was Delicious with a capital D!! I had the chicken souviakia and my friend had the pork souviakia. The flavor was amazing!! The chicken was super tender and juicy served with a lemon wedge, and french fries. I skipped the ketchup and opted to get the tzatziki. It had a beautiful creaminess to it that blended perfectly with the flavor of the seasoning on the chicken and pork. This is a definite gem.

Went here for the first time for an early dinner on a Monday. Because of the construction in trappers alley area, there was not many people on the street at all. It ended up being my friend and I were the only ones in the entire restaurant. We ordered the calamari appetizer. It was done to perfection. Very light batter and great taste. We also ordered the baked lamb shank with a 50/50 split of rice and potatoes. That also was quite delicious. The service was really fantastic. The owner was very attentive. Highly recommend to come to this restaurant for great food!

Truly authentic Greek food made by one of the nicest Greek families I know. Make sure to try the souvlaki (pork skewers) and the roasted lamb. Fantastic! 🤌 Highly recommend.

★★★★★ 5.0 Marty Buchman · Jan 2026

Just happened to be walking by and this is probably the best Greek food I’ve ever had in my life! The flaming cheese is one of the best things I’ve ever tasted! Highly suggest going to check this place out. George the owner who is also the cook is true Greek and even came to check on us! Perfection
