Taverna Kyclades Bayside

Finally got around to trying Taverna Kyclades, and wasn't disappointed! Came late on a Friday night so we were able to be immediately seated. Ambiance is cozy, service was attentive and helpful with the menu breakdown. We ordered the grilled calamari (a must have, so tender and not at all salty ot heavy), the scallops (wonderful), and the rib eye (good but nothing spectacular), with sides of lemon potatoes and Swiss chard. Definitely a great authentic local Greek spot, and will be back!

We decided to make an order for pickup since it was thanksgiving eve. They absolutely blessed us. The portions were absolutely fantastic and the food was even better. This spot is genuinely such a gem and they treat their customers so well, you can tell that they care which is rare nowadays. We love you guys. Happy thanksgiving and thanks for a fantastic meal. ❤️❤️❤️ (the octopus literally made me dance like it’s so gooood)

harsh review from me because i got food poisoning after eating here. my main gripe is that the restaurant boasts seafood but their land entrees are way better. i’m assuming some of their seafood is not the freshest… their branzino was kind of mushy and tasteless, which leads me to believe it had been frozen for some time. i noticed far too late that our table was missing what i think was olive oil? i saw others using it to douse their fish but i didn’t have the opportunity. the grilled octopus was the only seafood dish i didn’t regret ordering.

A perfect 2nd location for an awesome restaurant, had a great lunch bar side with our server Colby. For starter the Octopus is insane, it’s a great delicious portion with a beautiful char and sauce to dip in. The lunch special is fantastic value, the Fried Whitings were incredible and probably my new favorite Fish and Chips! The top end has the perfect savory & crispy fry and stays hot and delicious all the way through. These paired with their great French Fry chips was a simple and unbeatable meal.

The swordfish was so delicious and the portions are humongous. We also got half a dozen of oysters that were so sweet and went so well with the sauces they provide. We had so much food to bring home, and on top of that they gave us free dessert!
