Mike Karas: This place has the best Souvlaki, the tzatziki is excellent I have never seen a cleaner cart Standing on 51st and park avenue. amazing. The rice is off the hook.
Brett Kearon: Souvlaki over rice with feta and the works. The best $6 lunch in midtown Manhattan. Just be sure to get there early as the line gets crazy after 12.
Serious Eats: Greek food truck with solid souvlaki, friendly service, and homemade Greek specials like pork chops and baklava. Lines can grow long; go early or late to skip the lunch rush.

Christin Gabriel: Great takeout, super fast service!Chicken souvlaki pita sandwich is good, as are the fries.
Felisa Vazquez-Abad: I did not like this place at all. The souvlaki is minuscule, barely any filling. No lettuce. Fries INSIDE the pita???? The lamb was hard, not cooked well. Do not recommend at all.
Erica Delaney: The kebabs are well seasoned and typically cooked to perfection. The spreads (all 4) are absolutely delicious. The halloumi with fig is a little sweet for my taste, but authentic.

Emily Wilson: It’s Kiki’s, but fast casual. What’s not to like? Perfect roast chicken, fries with Dijon dipping sauce, salads, souvlaki sticks... it’s all good, it’s all cheap. There’s just no wine.
Andrew Cerda: The extension of Kiki’s across the street, come to this location for a great deal on souvlaki sticks!
Gerald van den Berg: Greek, fast, simple, but delicious. Kebab Pita and Half Chicken and Fries both good options

Georgia Evert: Chicken Souvlaki platter: more than enough food. Oh and it's amazing.
dean c: It was delicious. Good service. Extremely tender and juicy souvlaki chicken
honeywhatscooking.com: Authentic and delicious Greek food, but painfully slow service. Still worth it. 🇬🇷TIP: Roasted Potatoes, Spanakopita & Tzatziki Sauce are the best. Chicken Souvlaki was juicy.

john laskow: This is not Carnegie deli. No pastrami here. This is an awesome food cart with great souvlaki in a pita
Philipp Rogmann: Best cart and maybe the best burger in Midtown. Try the Cheeseburger
Luis Avila: The combo patters are great, the shish kabobs remind me of the spot over on steinway and 31 in Astoria which makes sense since John is an Astoria native. Personal favorite : Chicken sandwich, drool

Bridget Gael: AMAZING Greek place! We loved the vodka passion fruit cocktail & appetizers (Chilean sea bass souvlaki, Greek salad & spreads were a hit). Will be back!
lovethesecities.com: Impressive space, powerhouse Midtown newcomer. Set lunch menu is super reasonable at $29.50 for three course prix fixe. Greek Seafood by Tao Group, dress to impress and don't forget your bank.
Paige C: What a delectable menu! Their fish was perfectly cooked. The dips, the Avra chips, the rice - everything delicious. Wonderful and attentive service too.

Laura Vitaro: The chicken souvlaki can easily feed two. The tzatziki is rich and delicious. Leave room for the free dessert.
Michael G.: One of the best Greek spots in NYC but on the pricier side, especially if you order fish. Chicken souvlaki, Greek salad, and spreads are all so good.
Stefano Guidolin: My favorite greek restaurant in the city, everything is simple and really tasty, looks like an authentic family place in Greece! Don't forget to finish your dinner with some Ouzo ;)

HeyHayleyJane: Halloumi to start was yummy. Lamb kebab (souvlaki?) was really chewy, and tough to even cut up! Be prepared for onion breath 😷
Paige Anne: Must get the seafood orzo entree, lemon potatoes side & octopus appetizer! My favorite meal in the city to date!
Cappy Popp: Grilled octopus. JUST DO IT. All day, every day. And the dip plate. And shrimp saganaki. And lemon potatoes. Seriously, this place is utterly amazing. Just don't take my bar seat - pointing at you.
Debra Padula: Favorite diner of all time. Love the souvlaki platter and the roasted chicken dinner.
Lauren: Best diner on the UES. Solid staples: eggs, home fries, wraps, etc. Great service & staff, too.
Ruben Brosbe: The York Ave is without a doubt the best item on a very solid menu

Chelsea Balkan: #FabuLIST #DubiDO tasty authentic Greek. Get the Haloumi, Greek salad, and Bifteki Souvlaki. I'm sure everything here is good though! And loved the bread basket.
Jeffrey Glueck: Tarama salata with pita a rare find. Great oysters. And don't miss truffle fries.
Tracy Leiken: Good food bad service and rude hostesses.
