Updated review (8/2025): Fresh food, fab taste, the service was so nice! (Points to improve – chicken flavor is great, could be a bit more juicy. Big salad should come with a serving spoon as it’s not thinly cut, and a regular spoon is not convenient). The restaurant is very clean, the new renovation is classy . We did love it that you could enjoy Greek music while eating! We’ll be back more (:

My daughter and I visited for a late lunch on Thursday March 20th for the 1st time and to say it was exceptional is an understatement. Greeks and Armenians (which we are) share a common approach to our food and not many Greek restaurants do Greek food justice. Pontos Taverna did! We had Avgolemono soup which was perfect! Just the right amount of lemon and brought me RIGHT BACK to my childhood! We then had the Dolmades and for something that wasn’t prepared on-site, it was really quite good. We also had the Melitzanosalata (eggplant) dip which my daughter LOVED. In addition, we had Xoriatiki and Pantzaria and the latter was EXACTLY the way beets should be! The Greek salad was also very very good! We also had the Xtapodi (octopus) and we enjoyed it immensely. I prefer mine just grilled but my daughter loved the lemony brine it was in. We also had the pork and chicken Souvlaki (a la carte) so we could taste it. It’s best if eaten nice and hot.. The grilled flavor was unmistakable. We also ordered the Paidakia and it was OUT OF THIS WORLD! I will not post the video of my daughter’s reaction when she took her 1st bite. It was superb and I don’t say that lightly. Truly exceptional. We also ordered the tiramisu and pakhlava and found the tiramisu to be quite good even in comparison to Italian bakeries. The pakhlava was also good, thicker than we’re used to, and not as much syrup but for me that was perfectly fine. We usually have it slathered in honey/syrup. Suffice it so say, we took ALOT of food home for family and friends to taste as we live quite a distance away but hope we can return as a group to enjoy the bounties of this amazing restaurant. We had such an amazing chat with the young lady who’s been there for 10 years. She gave such a thorough and heart-warming history of the paintings, the family, the patriarch of the family who passed away in the last 5 years (our deepest sympathies) and all of the children and grand-children and staff who have been with this amazing establishment for many, many years. Yes, the parking is not optimal but parking on the main street is an option (before turning on Isaacs Street), which is what we did. We WILL return and HIGHLY recommend it to all our Greek, Armenian and non-Mediterranean friends who hail from areas outside of Norwalk. You will NOT be disappointed. We guarantee it! Thank you again!!!

My favorite place to return to for special occasions. The food is always exceptional — perfectly cooked, flavorful, and consistently impressive. A dinning experience you can’t create at home.
I also want to highlight the young lady at front. She is hospitable, attentive, and makes multitasking look easy. Wishing this business continued success.

Very good and authentic Greek food! Reminds me of the food I had on my trip to Greece!
I had the souvlaki platter and my friend had a gyro sandwich. Both delicious!

This spot lives up to its glowing reviews. The atmosphere strikes a pleasing balance between casual and refined, with crisp linen tablecloths, neatly lined napkins, and elegant square china that sets a subtle tone of sophistication. The food does not disappoint: the lemon wine chicken is bright and flavorful, while the chicken souvlaki is tender and generously portioned. Desserts and drinks are equally authentic—the Greek coffee is robust and aromatic, and the baklava is sweet, flaky, and true to tradition. Street parking is available, adding a convenient touch to an otherwise exceptional dining experience.

This is the most welcoming and accommodating restaurant we’ve visited while working on a cuisine project with my boyfriend. We truly appreciate the hospitality so we can try authentic Pontic Greek dishes. Food was excellent! Every bite was flavorful, can easily taste it was made with love. Our dinner ended with delicious desserts on the house! Thank you very much. This was such a cool experience, and with confidence a hidden gem in Norwalk area.
