The Greek Islands is a cozy Greek restaurant located in Fort Lauderdale right off of Oakland Park and A1A. This restaurant is a staple in Fort Lauderdale and is totally worth experiencing. The atmosphere is casual and comfortable. The parking can be a challenge, but they do offer valet. To avoid a long wait, as they do not offer reservations, we went for lunch and we were able to get a table right away. Once we were seated, we were provided with a complementary serving of hummus and bread. We then ordered the pikilia appetizer which includes a sampler of all of the different types of dips served with warm pita. We also had the spanakopita, the horiatiki salad, octopus and chicken wings. Everything was delicious. We really enjoyed our food and did not have room for dessert, but I’ve had their desserts before and they are authentic and delicious.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the entire world. It packs out early. We had the smelts (tasty with only the generous lemon wedges squeezed all over them) , 1/2 roasted chicken and lamb chops. The Greek potatoes and yahni were so delicious. Some of the best I’ve ever had. My lamb chops were cooked to perfection (medium rare). We went for an early dinner just after 4pm. By the time we left around 5:30, every seat was full. Delicious rosé by the glass, and a red for the chops. My pre-dinner dry gin Martini was full to the brim of a large glass.

I took my family here and it was the best decision I made. The food was subpar! Very flavorful/delicious/fresh. We ordered the octopus, calamari, spanakopita as appetizers. Lunch we got the gyro. They cut the pita in pieces, you have the gyro on top with the red onions, tomato and tzatziki sauce on side. You basically have to make it into a taco. Dessert we got the baklava cheesecake and chocolate cake. I couldn’t decide which one was my favorite. Also, the dirty martini was a good choice too!
Our waiter was kind & attentive. The experience we had was great.
Parking – valet $6

Great Greek Taverna food.
Feels like ke a big family gathering.
We visited every year when we migrate from NYC.
Reservations are highly recommended otherwise you wait in line for a while.

The restaurant has its own parking lot, an outdoor patio, an inside patio, dining room and a large bar area with seating.
We arrived at 4pm and by 4:45 pm, people were already waiting for tables if they had no reservation.
We sat at the outside patio (which filled up). Some people were afraid to eat there because of the 2 large blizzards overhead (see photos).
They provide complimentary serving of hummus with white and whole grains bread.
The octopus appetizer ($24) was butter soft but unfortunately it was very salty which greatly detracted from the dish.
The whole yellowtail snapper was excellent. It came with a sude of rice and a sude of cooked vegetables.
Service to the patio had service gaps and various servers attended to it which detracted from smooth service.

The food here is really good and definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for flavorful, well-prepared dishes. My absolute favorites are the lamb chops and the grilled Greek wings.
The lamb chops are cooked to perfection–tender, juicy, and seasoned just right with a great balance of herbs and spices that bring out the natural flavor of the meat. You can tell they use quality ingredients and take care in their preparation.
The grilled Greek wings are equally impressive. They’re packed with bold, zesty flavor and have that perfect char from the grill. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside–just how wings should be. The seasoning has that signature Mediterranean flair that keeps you reaching for the next one.
Whether you’re stopping in for a casual meal or a night out, this place delivers with consistent quality and taste. I’II definitely be back to enjoy those favorites again and explore more of the menu!

I had lunch at Greek Islands Taverna and it was absolutely fabulous. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared, with generous portions that truly reflect authentic Greek cuisine. Every bite tasted like it was made with care and quality ingredients, and the flavors were outstanding.

The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was friendly and attentive without feeling rushed. It was the kind of meal that makes you want to come back again and again.

If you’re looking for a place that delivers great food and a wonderful dining experience, Greek Islands Taverna is a must-visit.

Authentic Greek restaurant, with a variety of fresh tasteful menu items at a reasonable price. We went with the traditional Greek salad to start, chicken breast entree, mixed vegetables, ribs entree, and then rice pudding and their wonderful Baklava Cheesecake
