We went on a Sunday night, just by chance. Wish we'd gone somewhere else. The greek salad and house wine and service were OK, nothing special. Moussaka was bland and unappetising, stifado was mainly gristle and fat. The mains came with a weird selection of accompaniments; chips, rice and coleslaw (which was definately not fresh). We were suspicious when we... More

My sister took me here when I visited in Spetember as it is one of her favorite local spots. It's a tiny, cozy place, packed with locals. The owner is the server and helps out in the kitchen too! Warm, funny man with a cheerful mustache. The tables are tiny with a rustic candle each. And the food - WOWZA.... More

We passed the restaurant on our way to the apartement at the Noordermarkt. As we love greek food we decided to take our dinner there, and what can i say - it was a good choice. The food was very good and fresh cooked (vegetarian moussaka directly from the oven). The owner and his sister were really nice and friendly... More

Good choice of veggie foods. The salads there are lovely. The cookies are HUGE and delicious. Ambience; a clean café with plenty of room upstairs. Great place for lunch in the heart of the city.

Walking to the restaraunt , that is a little out of the centre (10 min stroll from station).we were passing a few little restaraunts which were all very busy. when we arrived was a little surprised to find only 2...

I had to share this review , as I purely found this restaurant by looking at Trip Advisor and seeing the recommendations so felt it only fair to give my review also. Brilliant food is all I can say , being Greek I. Know what decent home cooked Greek food tastes like and this was definitely it. It's simple straightforward... More

We visited this restaurant during our stay in Amsterdam last year and had to return. This year we got to meet the resident cats also. We skipped starters and went straight for the mains. I had the moussaka and my husband opted for the veal Stifado. Out plates arrived piled with real comfort food. My moussaka was flavoursome perfectly made... More

Good service is hard to find in this city, so getting our drink order taken in less than 2 minutes is great thing! The wine and beer is very reasonably priced and so are the starters and salads. We had the tomato salad and the minced beef wrapped in grape leaves - both good but not amazing. My husband had... More

Took the recommenation of our hosts from the Blue Sheep B&B and were extremely pleased with the quality of food and service. Their tzatziki was some of the best we've ever had! We sampled several different appetizers and they were all great. Their steak kabob was perfect - better than a filet at most high-end steakhouses. And their desserts and... More
