SOUVLAKI DEVIATION Growing up on the streets of Athens, a memory always brings back a smile. The traveling smell of a local grill house cooking souvlakia, penetrates our very being through the open windows along with the summer breeze. Countless fights with mothers and grandmothers to let us eat one for dinner or on the way back from school rather than what they had prepared. To this day, I don’t think we wanted to eat them because of the taste, but because of the ritual. This and many more stories of a youth spent on the street of Athens, brought us together out of nowhere, like the secret oath of a revolution that no one knew was about to begin.

We came on a Sunday afternoon.
The atmosphere inside is gorgeous, warm, and friendly.
The staff were so pleasant and kind.
They were helpful and patient, it was many of us first time there.
The ordering process was simple and easy. We ordered and were given a number to place at our table.
The food came out fast, hot, and very fresh.
You can taste the freshness, quality of ingredients, and the love and authenticity in every bite.
Our group tried a variety of dishes, all were very pleased with the taste, freshness, portion size, and value of each item.
Among our group, we tasted the Lemon chicken soup (AMAZING), pita which was so soft and tasty, a variety of platters and meats, the hummus, falafel, and dips, and gyros.
Some had salads, others had bowls.
We also tried the ice cream and sorbet selection. They were sweet but not too sweet, very fresh and creamy.
There is much more that we want to try, every single one of us was satisfied and happy with our experience. We will be returning.
This visit was 10 out of 10 and I will recommend it to anyone, even if you have a group, they will accommodate you well. ♥️
They also just updated the menu 2 days ago, so even more reasons to visit.
We ordered the Epic Mix Grill, and when our server realized he had accidentally keyed in the wrong order (several minutes later, after we had paid and were already at our table), not only was he extremely apologetic, but he refused to let us pay the difference (he had keyed in a lower value menu item by mistake) even as he brought out what we originally wanted. Not only that, but he also treated my 3 children to a scoop of gelato each. NOW that’s what I call service!!!
Everything is delicious and genuine value for money. We love their salads and their mix grills, and truly there is something for everyone.
For a real showstopper- the East Meat West could feed a whole family with your choice of protein. This huge tray easily feeds 4 (with leftovers) and comes stacked with lemon turmeric rice, pork (or beef or chicken) gyro, hummus, pita, tzatziki, falafel (a little greasy or Greece-y), chicken souvlaki, dolmades, and a bright vinegar-based coleslaw that I loved. Every bite hit and this place really understood the assignment.
NOTES/TIPS:
**Really fair pricing. Fast and friendly service. About 6 table inside, can accommodate a group of about 8. High chair available.
**Small parking lot in back and street parking with high turnover. Easy.
**Order take out and delivery via their website which has more options than DoorDash. They’re also on Grubhub, Caviar, Seamless, Postmates, UberEats, and yelp.
