"I doubt I'll try this place again I was on a business trip this weekend and we were told about this great restaurant. Well, I understand covid and all that but this was not a thing involved in this dinner. We were taken in within 15 minutes from our arrival and placed in a large area as we were 11 of us. The ambiance and decor looks good but we were struggling with flies in our table, we were given pita bread (soft and hard and a dressing of cinnamon butter that I believe it's better with cinnamon rolls not pita bread and especially not when you want to eat a savory main dish; I was waiting more of lebne or tzaziki dressing. Anyway, it took them about 2 hrs to give us our food. A friend and I ordered a Big Fat Greek Dinner which depending on the entrees is the amount you pay. I had dolmades (2 which I've never had with marinara on top, it also came with two individual salads, the entrees were lamb chops and pasta (not the big portion the waitress said it would be but tasty the seasoned rice was very bad it was like plastic rice with powder on top and the dessert was baklava (like 8 layers of filo dough with the nuts inside and CINNAMON!!! Not good and my friend had also zucchini which was average. For all this plus two beers the check was 50 dlls! I believe it's a lot especially for the portions and taste. It's surprising that this place was on the Evansville magazine but I guess there were good old days not now. Hope someone does something"

It's nice to change it up now and then. Acropolis is a good choice for that. The food is consistently good. It's got an authentic Greek atmosphere.

Lunch meeting here on Friday. Well kept secret in Evansville. Food and service was outstanding. A hidden gem. Will be back the next time I'm in E'Ville.

We enjoyed our dinner very much. This was a special occasion, my wife's birthday, and this was our first time at Acropolis. Our only problem was they didn't have us on their reservation list. I had received a confirmation from Open Table but evidently Acropolis didn't receive it. Fortunately for us there were tables available and we were seated immediately in a very nice spot upstairs

The hostess had no record of the Open Table reservation three days before dinner. We showed her the confirmation email (on the phone), but it did not make any difference how we sat, watched and waited how others sit directly with reservations. The food is good and should be recognized as that. The restaurant has delicious fresh food, plentiful portions and a decent selection of menus, although a minority of authentic Greek dishes. The wine list offered a solid selection at reasonable prices. It should be recognized that you should not expect anything near a fine culinary experience. Why the recomendation? Acropolis is what it is, what a good (not big) regional opportunity would be to taste d... View menu

Ok, we went to this place a few years back and they must have been having an off day because we were marginal about going back. But WOW I am so sad that we didn't go back sooner!!! We started with the Greek Sampler appetizer and everything was very good, especially the Greek meatballs. I ordered the tortellini with gyro meat and it was MIND BLOWINGLY delicious. I could drink the creamy garlic sauce, it was so tasty!!!!! My husband got the stuffed chicken breast and he loved it. Aside from the food, the atmosphere was very nostalgic for us. We went to Santorini for our honeymoon, and sitting in Acropolis was very reminiscent of the real thing!!! It's a big building, but the rooms are sectione... View menu

I've been to Acropolis 5 or so times over the last 10 years and it was nice to go back now after having personally adopted a taste for a more international cuisine. Going here 5-10 years ago, I hadn't had much Mediterranean food broadly speaking so I didn't really have much to compare it to. The overall decor and ambience inside is intimate and detailed but some of the booth seats could use a resurfacing. The menu had a variety of options, but some seem to just be a bit more of an American or midwestern take on a Greek dish and less authentic. The portion sizes on the gyro platter and kota lemonati were very generous and both quite tasty. The tabouleh side dish didn't seem very fresh on this...

The menu offered a selection of traditional Greek dishes as well as some American options. We opted for the lunch specials and ordered gyros, which were served with a salad and side for $7. The salads were generous portions of fresh cucumber, tomato, feta, onion, and Greek herbs - incredibly delicious and fresh. I also enjoyed a glass of house wine for $5.50, which turned out to be a lovely Kendall Jackson Chardonnay. Our entrees arrived promptly after we finished our salads, served hot on plates wrapped in red checkered paper. We selected tabouli salad, Greek fried potatoes, Greek string beans, and sautéed zucchini as our sides. Each side dish was fresh and flavorful, with the tabouli hav...

"Food is great. Service ranges from so-so to fantastic. They have had fantastic servers and then we have had the rudest little girls working the front counter that I've ever experienced at any other fast food restaurant LOL We had decided we were never going to go back after the last rude employee we experienced(we actually walked out!)but their tenderloin sandwiches are so good, we gave it another try and it didn't disappoint! I ALSO did happen to leave my wallet in the restaurant this last time. When I called the next day they told me that they didn't have it. After driving to the restaurant and talking to the general manager, we were able to track my wallet down from another employee who had put it in a safe spot the night before. It was only due to the lack of communication that they thought my wallet wasn't there. The manager called us right away to let us know that they found it and when I got there all of my money and my cards were still inside! This is a great little place to have some good food and watch some sports on their many televisions. Our servers have always been fantastic and honestly I think it's due to the age and the immaturity of some of the young kids working that can put a bad taste in your mouth. Sometimes kids just don't know any better and hopefully they will learn with experience. I would definitely recommend giving this place a shot!"
