"Tarpon Springs is an interesting place to visit. There 's an odd mix of tourists, locals, and out-of-towners that keeps the area feeling like a tourist trap, but still maintains a certain local charm. Being a settlement of the Greeks back in the day for sponge diving, there is certainly no shortage of Greek themed food establishments. Yeah, some famous named TV chef endorses this one restaurant, and some slightly famous food video blogger raves about another, blah blah. But there is a nice, slightly off the path gem called Costa 's right there in the center of town. First, the service. perfect every time. Nice, friendly, and prompt. Second, the prices are very reasonable. Third, the food is quite simply the best Greek/Mediterranean cuisine on the planet. Portions are more than sufficient to satisfy the largest appetites. Always start with the Saganaki (flaming cheese). We 've had so many wonderful dishes here. The Mousaka will blow your mind! The lamb shank can almost feed two. The Souvlaki (chicken or pork) is so juicy and tender and comes with a ton of garnishes. Their Greek salad is a work of art and comes with a dressing that nears a religious experience. Let 's talk Gyro meat for a second. There are so many variations and recipes for a good Gyro. But, Costa 's has the absolute best Gyro meat on the planet. The seasonings aren 't over bearing and the meat is always glistening with juices and so very tender. When in Tarpon Springs, get away from the dolphin cruise barkers and redundant tourist gift shops for a bit and sit your butt down at Costa 's for grub. You will NOT leave hungry, guaranteed. I would recommend doing a dolphin cruise, BEFORE eating though. There are no public facilities on Anclote Island and the accommodations on the dolphin cruises would be less than desirable for any such... needs ."

"We used to visit Iguana Cafe frequently when we lived nearby 20 years ago, so we decided to return for some nostalgia before a nearby concert. The food is still outstanding! We ordered the beet and burrata salad, Mediterranean sandwich, and lobster ravioli. The Mediterranean sandwich was a favorite of ours 20 years ago and it still tastes just as delicious and savory as we remembered! The drinks were also tasty, but it would have been nice to see some signature cocktails on the menu."

"we had a big eckish with a view of the dining room. the service was attentive without being annoyed. the quality of the food is improved during each visit. we ordered a taramosalata and a Greek village salad to start. both were excellent, served with warm brot and pita triangle. we had a Greek sea bass and lamb hack, and dessert was a boughatsa baked with a Greek coffee and a minze tee. we repeat customers and were never disappointed. highly recommended"

"Went to this neighborhood gem for happy hour. This is definitely the best happy hour around and the hours are Monday through Friday, 4:30 to 6:30 PM. They offer draught beers for $4, house red and white wine for $5, select whites and reds and all well drinks for $7. I had the house red, a Cabernet Franc Blend and it was delicious. My husband and son ordered the Captain Lawrence Winter IPA and said it was fantastic as well. Meritage offers four small plates for $5 each attheir happy hour. We ordered one of each: Arancini, Calamari, Meatballs and Bocadillo. We also ordered the trio of spreads, Hummus, Romesco and Tzatziki which came with homemade pita bread for $7. All of the portions were generous and morethan enough for the three of us to share. Our bartender Paul was wonderful? attentive and professional. We sat at the spacious bar and there is also a cozy dining room and outdoor seating. They are open for lunch, dinner, and brunch. Thedinner menu is creative and serves farm to table fare. I took a peek at the menu and there are many seafood as well as meat choices all reasonably priced. They also have an extensive wine menu. This place is definitely a winner and we lookforward to returning soon!"

"We started with appetizers, sharing the Grilled Octopus and the Cold Spread Sampler, both of which were delicious. The Skordalia was packed with garlic, and I couldn't resist slathering it on my bread. For our entrees, we each chose something different. My husband enjoyed the Moussaka, while the Kalamata Dinner, which features a combination of five dishes, offered a delightful variety, leaving us with leftovers for lunch the next day. The Gyro plate was a hit, too; my companion devoured it without sharing any. I was particularly impressed by the Grilled Vegetable Shish-Kabob, which was beautifully presented, and the veggies were perfectly cooked and seasoned—definitely something I'll order next time since I love vegetables. The Chicken Shish-Kabob also looked impressive, and we took home leftovers from that as well. As for my Grilled Chicken Breast, it was a tad dry, which is typical for chicken breasts, but the rice topped with homemade tomato sauce was worth every carb, even for a diabetic like me. We couldn't resist desserts either. The baklava was the best I've ever had, and we also tried the lemon bar, chocolate mousse cake, and Galaktoboureko (a custard-like dessert). We almost licked the plates clean! Would I recommend Kalamata Kitchen? Absolutely, yes! We definitely plan to dine there again."

"For our second visit, the host and staff cordially seated us in the dining room, attended to us promptly and afforded us a personal visit from the friendly owner. We had read that alcoholic beverages are now being served, a wonderful and anticipated change from our first visit. Bottled water with a basket of pita and chopped marinated red pepper were offered as a complimentary starter while we reviewed the options for our meals. The menu is extensive and the portions are ample. For an appetizer, my wife I enjoyed authentic falafel with humus and arugula accompanied with a sour cream topping. Unlike what we’ve eaten in other restaurants that serve this delicacy, our appetizer was savory, nicely presented and tasted better than any we’ve had in the Capital District. For our main dishes, my wife, a vegetarian, had the eggplant salad platter with baby baked potatoes, cherry tomatoes, ample cheese topping and a sizable green salad. My dinner meal was the branzino filets, delicately and artfully arranged mashed potatoes and a green salad. Both meals were served on large plates and very hot. Neither plate had any leftovers! Completing our meal were a serving of pistachio baklava and a pot of decaffeinated rooibos tea. The ambiance and excellent service by Sean made for an extremely favorable impression on us during this follow up visit. Needless to say, we highly recommend this restaurant, and we’ll be back!"

"My wife and I were here a few months ago and decided to return. This was our second visit since a flood devastated the building. We began with a pitcher of Sangria and ordered Chicken with mushrooms and Shrimp stuffed with crab meat. Both entrees were delicious. A salad was served with the meal. The dining room gets quite noisy, but it's worth the noise to enjoy truly outstanding food."

"Once we were finally seated, the service felt incredibly rushed. We had barely started on our two appetizers when our main courses arrived at the table. We spent less time at the table than we did waiting for it. Some of the dishes we wanted were sold out, which is understandable, but it only added to our disappointment. The food was good, but with so many other fantastic dining options in Asheville, we don’t think we’ll be returning."

"I experienced true Greek cooking with a modern flair at the newest location of @vaskouzina. They have two locations: downtown Roswell and the newer, larger location in Alpharetta. As soon as you walk in you are transported to Greece with the music, the ambiance, and the food. Whole fish are sitting atop ice for your choosing as you walk to your table. Such a great spot for a date night or to take your out of town friends. I was most impressed by the Saganaki which is aflaming cheese that literally comes out on fire and the chargrilled Lavraki which is a whole Mediterranean sea bass that is deboned tableside by the chef! You have to check this place out. The layout is absolutely beautiful. I love thatyou can do a little shopping before or afterward at the in store market that is stocked with Greek oils and other essentials to elevate your at home meals. The baklava bites and cheesecake for dessert was the icing on top! This was some ofthe freshest seafood that I have ever had. Everything was so flavorful and delicious and the atmosphere was fantastic. I will definitely be back. Thank you for having me!

"This restaurant serves traditional Greek cuisine in San Jose and provides a more upscale dining experience compared to Nick the Greek. The menu features a diverse selection of options, so you’re sure to find something that will satisfy your hunger. They also provide halal options for those who require them. The service is usually good, but it's essential to be patient and courteous to the staff, especially during busy periods when there may only be one or two waitstaff on duty. Parking can be limited, but there's plenty of street parking available. Be sure to try the gyro wraps—they're a classic favorite!"

"We had a good meal over the holiday season. We were the ONLY people in the entire restaurant. The portions are BIG. The lamb kabob was great while the chicken and pork were good. We loved a feta cheese in phylo dough with honey. However the big miss was the octopus. It was a huge serving but grossly overcooked and chewy. The waitress was very cordial. However at the end of the meal it was surprising that since we were the only people in the entire restaurant that i literally had to go the the reception area to ask for the check because she was MIA. Overall, we suspect that the main chef was not working that night accounting for the glitches but it was a nice and better option compared to other local greek restaurants like Arpeggio ."

"We have been ordering from here for years! Usually their food is on point. This last time we ordered the blandest food ever, but okay we ate it because we bought it already. We ordered the Greek salad, gyro meat and chicken skewers. Worst mistake ever! My husband and me are in the hospital with the worst food poisoning of our lives. Unless you are looking for an extra big medical bill I suggest not eating here. Wish I could report them to health services and get my medical bill paid for this!

"The food here is fresh, quality and delicious! If the Arancini balls, steak or zucchini noodles are on the menu, I highly recommend ordering them. In the atmosphere, the bar/restaurant is super relaxed with a casual feeling of hometown. This is the place to come when you want to be surrounded by good people, beautiful males (a lot of them locally), and enjoy some great food."

"You don't have to be Greek to appreciate good food and they deliver at this restaurant. It was our first time visiting and we thought it was outstanding. I had the Plaki, fish in a red sauce with onions and it was excellent. Even if you don't normally order fish I would get this dish. My wife had the lamb chops and they were grilled and seasoned perfectly. And you bring your own wine...very good service here too. Highly recommended!!"

"First, the food: we started spreads with pita and Greek salad that were good, shrimp Santorini was ok but shrimp were over cooked and only smothered in tomato sauce whereas traditionally, there is feta cheese also. We ordered chicken and gyro wraps and opted for lemon potatoes instead of fries. The gyro was decent but the way it is cut lead is to believe it is frozen and pre-cut, not shaved off of an actual vertical broiler as is the traditional way. The chicken kebab was dry and inedible. The lemon potatoes tasted like they had been pulled from a refrigerator and microwaved as they were dry and mealy on the outside and still cold on the inside. We don’t complain and it could be because we went during an off time at 4 pm as we were the only patrons other than one other table in the place. Our server was nice but not very knowledgeable about the food and when describing the difference between a platter and a wrap (aside from being $3-5 more than a wrap was that it’s the same thing as the wrap, just deconstructed so it’s not as messy…doesn’t seem like a good reason to spend more on it then. We ordered galaktoboureka for dessert and the custard was lumpy and did not set correctly, the phylo dough was dry and not soaked in honey as it should be…horrible to say the least.That was the Bad. Now for the ugly: when it came time to pay, I gave her my card and she proceeded to charge it, and I knew it was charged as I have my account set up to give me alerts whenever there is a charge to the card. She claimed that the card was declined and handed me six transaction receipts that said card declined: duplicate transaction. I said that the charge went through and showed her my bank info and alert that proved it but she assured me it didn’t go through and my only recourse was to call my bank and tell them to put a stop payment on the charge (admitting there was indeed a charge? and asked me for a different card which I gave her and she proceeded to try a different terminal as she said the one she was using behind the bar always gives her trouble. The second charge went through and we left with a literal and figurative bad taste in our mouth. I called the credit card company the following day and they assured me that a charge was indeed occurred and I had to submit a fraud report and will have to wait 90 days to hear the outcome of their investigation. I called the restaurant to speak with a manager and she told me that there was nothing that they could do as they did not see two charges on their end and pretty much told me I am out of luck.I am writing this review as a buyer beware warning. Gyromania or gyroville have better tasting and fresher food for a fraction. Of the price unless uninspired and mediocre food along with theft of your money is your thing. My opinion, pass this place by if you’re looking for Greek food."

"The menu offers a wide variety of traditional Greek favorites. Unfortunately, the service was lacking; the waiter was inattentive and dismissive. I specifically asked about the calamari platter, confirming if it was grilled, to which he responded, "yes." Instead, I received a plate piled high with breaded calamari—exactly what I didn't want—along with rice and pita bread. It was clear to me that he wasn’t really listening. I didn't see him again until I had to flag him down for the check. On a positive note, the Greek salad was excellent, and the dressing was delicious (I’d love to get that recipe!). The ambiance was nice, though the music was a bit too loud."
