We had dinner at the Greek Taverna tonight and it was awesome! We had traditional Greek food from Greek Country bread to moussaka, spanakopita and for dessert a decadent piece of Galaktoboureko. It was warm right from the oven. It is made of phyllo dough, a creamy custard filling, and an unbelievable syrup, made with sugar, water, honey, cinnamon, and lemon zest. We will definitely be back.
We were the only diners on a Friday night, which i will never understand. The food was absolutely delicious—one of the best spinach pies I’ve had in my life. The house salad was fresh and had great flavors and presentation. The server was friendly and attentive. Clean, welcoming, and super yummy! We will definitely return!
Delicious very authentic food Shhhh…the food is even better than my grandmother’s! The Greek Taverna is a go-to favorite for my parents who take me there when I visit . Vanessa is a warm and welcoming manager who knows the regulars’ order by heart. Lamb Gouvetzi, Greek salad, grilled octopus and souvlaki are winners. The shopping center looks run down but step inside to enjoy this gem!
Absolute hidden gem, delicious food! Tastes homemade, very filling and flavorful!! The waiter that was there was lovely, excellent service. Will be back if we come back to Sarasota!
The lamb there is so perfectly cooked! Saganaki was good but oily. We loved how they light it right in front of you though. The best thing on the menu is the rice pudding!
My husband is Greek so we always look for the Greek restaurants. We were visiting from Ohio and found this little place. We loved it. My husband said it’s the best meal he’s had in Sarasota. They have all of the traditional home-style Greek dishes he loves. He had the Plaki (fish) and I had the Dolmades (like grape leaves, only made with cabbage leaves.) They even had non-alcoholic beer for me, which is a rare find at a small restaurant like this. Opah!
Quaint little restaurant with very delicious Greek food. Service was prompt and courteous. (I believe the waiter was the owner) Only two other tables were occupied at the time we arrived. (Sunday evening). I chose the Octopus and Pasta and my wife ordered the Greek Giouvetsi. The octopus was cooked to perfection. (Not rubbery). This dish was FLAVORFUL. The roasted chunks lamb my wife ordered said it was very tender/tasty. All the Greek restaurants I have dined, this is one that I will return for dinner. For a small business, this place packs a punch when to comes to Greek dining. Give it a try, I believe you will not be disappointed.
