We have been coming to this place for decades. They continue to deliver excellent food, service, and that warm welcoming atmosphere over and over. We decided to bring family this time.
We can never resist their mezedes (appetizers). We had the lamb riblets, a great green salad, and the plate of taramosalata, tzatziki, eggplant, with pita bread. For our mains, of course, we had their whole grilled and roasted fishes. We ordered the sea bass and the sea bream. The sea bream was divine! We could not make up our mind about which lamb. So, we tried the lamb shank with a side of roasted potatoes (they’re serious about potatoes here!). Another hit! We used to enjoy the whole lamb on a spit a they used to serve cuts from different parts of the lamb. We chose to share 3 desserts that capped off the meal sweetly!

We were seated quickly at a cozy outdoor table with heaters, which made the space feel warm and inviting. Arriving with a serious appetite, we started with four appetizers, and the standout was definitely the Garides tou Fournou—perfectly cooked prawns bursting with flavor.
For the main course, we shared the Arnisia Plevrakia (grilled lamb), which was absolutely delicious. The portion size was generous yet ideal for two people. A small note for improvement would be serving the bread warm; once we mentioned it, our waiter kindly accommodated the request.
Overall, the service was attentive and pleasant, and the food arrived promptly without feeling rushed. A very enjoyable dining experience that we’d happily repeat.

We had a great dinner here. Service was great and the ambiance was very nice. We were sat outside in the patio and it was warm enough with the heat lamps on this chilly night. The standouts were the Smelt, Octopus, Pan Fried Cheese, Grilled While Fish, Rib Cut Lamb Chop, Cheesecake, Lava Chocolate Cake, and the Phyllo Dough wrapped Semolina Custard. Just a great experience overall!

Octopus was incredible but I was afraid of it. Definitely recommend it. Sauce the prawns came with was amazing. They cut my rib eye up for me which I loved. It was slightly over cooked however flavor still good. All the appetizers were delicious we tried like 6 that I didn’t have room for my steak. Made me a great martini. I couldn’t get them to fill my water to save my life however. Overall decent. Get the octopus and keep an open mind!

Have not eaten at Evvia for ages and happy we revisited! We did all appetizers and enjoyed everything we got:
* Evvia salad
* taramosalata with pita – good though I would’ve preferred a stronger fish roe taste similar to what we had in Mykonos
* smelts – deep-fried goodness
* grilled octopus – perfectly cooked
Our next visit will be much sooner!

Extraordinary service very welcoming team, very accommodating and nice restaurant. It was my first time visiting Evvia. I met friends for cocktails and appetizers which were “ok”. It wasn’t bad just ok. Tinny portions even for appetizers at a large price for their tiny dishes. I can’t stress enjoy what a lovely atmosphere and wonderful service. Their desserts options were very nice. I had the rice pudding with a pear. It was ok.

This place over the years has been steadily amazing! Their lamb chops are always very aromatic! I was told they were invited to cook for Obama during his second term. Their service is always very smooth and attentive. Great pace in serving appetizers and main courses. Both indoor and outdoor seatings are comfortable, pleasant. Just really love this place!

Grilled lamb chops was the star, cooked medium well and came out amazing. Ambience and decor is ideal for most environments.

We celebrated a special occasion at Evvia Estiatorio and it was an unforgettable experience. The food, ambiance, and service all came together beautifully.
We started with the crispy zucchini chips with tzatziki, which were light, crunchy, and perfectly paired with the refreshing dip. For mains, the grilled whole fish was cooked to perfection—flaky, tender, and full of flavor—accompanied by charred vegetables that added the right balance. The lamb chops were another highlight, juicy, tender, and infused with rich Mediterranean spices that made every bite melt in your mouth.
The warm, elegant atmosphere made the night feel even more special, and the staff made sure everything went smoothly, adding thoughtful touches throughout the evening.
If you’re looking for authentic Greek flavors in an upscale yet welcoming setting, Evvia is the place to go. Perfect for date nights, family celebrations, or any occasion you want to feel truly special.
