Christin G.Christin Gabriel: Great takeout, super fast service!Chicken souvlaki pita sandwich is good, as are the fries.

Felisa V.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.

Chris H.Chris Heuer: Local gem. Must try when on upper east side.

Cappy P.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.

Laura V.Laura Vitaro: The chicken souvlaki can easily feed two. The tzatziki is rich and delicious. Leave room for the free dessert.

Michael G.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.

Berk K.Berk Kapicioglu: The octopus is the best octopus I had in my life. The sea bass was deboned and super soft.  Wine was perfect.  For dessert, we had Galaktoboureko. Authentic and quality Greek cuisine in East Village.

Philipp R.Philipp Rogmann: Best cart and maybe the best burger in Midtown. Try the Cheeseburger

Luis A.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

Roger V.Roger V: Best burgers in mid-town. And my favorite wings anywhere.

Brad G.Brad Garoon: It's at least as good as any fast food joint, and for the same cost, I’d grab a burger from here and french fries from McDonald’s if I were in the neighborhood and only had a few bucks on me. Read more.

Rudy G.Rudy G.: Good greasy spoon. Old fashioned narrow place with good burgers. Fries are good too! Plus they carry Boylan's!
