Cozy Greek place in Douglaston and conveniently located steps from the LIRR and Q12 bus stop. This place never disappoints. My favorite dishes are the souvlaki, gyro, and lamb chops. The lamb chops are a bit pricier than the rest of the menu but worth it. Grilled and juicy. They have a variety of seasonal salads, try the Douglaston one. Always fresh and flavorful. Their classic Greek salad is mixed perfectly each time with its house dressing. Portions are good for sharing as well.
There's not a lot of seating as it's spaced like a mini cafe. You can always order via their app. There's a discount too for first time customers. Great for lunch and dinner given they are pretty fast in prep and serving. Nice local place.
They also sell pizza, pasta and burgers but I prefer to stick to their Greek plates. Their pizza is OK but not the traditional Italian saucy and oregano kind.
I like the owner and staff. They are always friendly and offer good service. Must try the Baklava! It sells out so grab it when you can.
Stopped in here late at night after getting a Christmas tree on the side of the road.
Gyros were great. Staff was very friendly considering how late it was. Has a pizzeria vibe but serving Greek food. Very interesting combination.
The place is clean and decorated nicely. I haven't been here until now because it always seemed vey hard to find parking at while driving by. So I would like to come back during a busier time and see what this place is like then.
The souvlaki platter, avgolemono soup, shrimp skewers and Acropolis salad are pretty good choices to satisfy a quick Greek craving. However, despite that, I am giving them three stars due to them missing parts of my order for delivery. Whether it was them forgetting my soda, omitting or including something, it has been disappointing on that end.
Aegea,
I remember when you first opened up in the mid-2000s.
You were GREAT back then. Buffalo chicken pizza was absolutely killer and among the best in the hood. Gyros/kebob was great.
What the hell happened?
Used to be my go-to Greek takeout/delivery for years, but things are going to have to change.
Gyros pizza salads. Greek.
Solid spot for pizza and wraps. Food was really fresh and made to order.
Ordered the regular gyro and it was not drenched too much with dressing. It was equally balanced. The meat did however tasted a bit gamey. So if you don't like having such a gamey after taste..you might want to skip the gryo. Price wise it's a bit higher than where I usually go. But pizza is cheap, as it should be.
The people making it seemed Greek, so I'm going to assume this is authentic.
Right on Northern Blvd. This place is easy to reach if you drive. There's buses than run here also. Across the street from CVS, so after picking up some meds. you can pick up some food.
I usually don't review places where I haven't checked in, but the takeout we picked up last night was so bad I feel it's my solemn duty to do so.
The tzatziki sauce had virtually no flavor on my chicken gyro sandwich, though it was absolutely smothered in it and dripping. Looked like mayo. Buffalo chicken sandwiches (hard to screw up) were huge but tasteless, and the feta on the Greek salad was of poor quality, while the house vinaigrette was more a akin to straight up oil than anything else. Even the fries tasted off, and had zero seasoning.
I'm sorry to say it, this was our first experience here and we will not return for a second.
We ordered out from this spot today. I ordered the Chicken Souvlaki Sandwich and my girl got the Falafel Sandwich also some fries. My Chicken sandwich was under seasoned and very messy to eat. Their sauce was just spilling all over the plate and toward the end of eating it my sandwich was a little soggy. My girl liked her Falafel sandwich but it wasn't the best she had. Said it was just a plain nothing special falafel sandwich. The fries were boring. Guess this spot wasn't too bad. We've had much worse else where so…
You know, although I drive by on Northern quite frequently, I would have never found this place if a friend of mine didn't recommend checking this place out. The restaurant is really small, it's right across the street from CVS with a green awning over the front entrance. I'm a pretty big fan of Greek/Mediterranean food; I would say this is one of the better, cleaner, best bang for your buck type of place. We usually order the 2 or 3 meat combination platter which is more than filling; if you get a side dish, definitely is enough to split for 2-3 people. I haven't tried the pizza but I've heard that it's also definitely worth a try!
