I ordered the Mousakka and it was incredible! Light and creamy bechamel top, beef was moist and delicious and not too much nutmeg. Perfectly cooked eggplant. My partner had Linguine with Prawns which were huge and perfectly cooked and seasoned. We had wine but they served complementary shot of Uzo which was generous. Attentive waiters and superb appetizers as well. It was a great night for us!

Delightful! Staff were welcoming even though we were only having dessert. English menu - always helpful! Pleasant atmosphere with large tables so we could spread out a bit. Chocolate biscuit was far more than expected but was a bit too sweet for my taste. The menu is extensive, and we’ll be back. Specifically, many reasonable lunch options!

Very good authentic Greek food! We’ve had mixed meat plate for 2 persons (44 euro) but we couldn’t eat the whole thing up! Lots of different good meats options! Salad included! House wine decent and affordable!

We went into this restaurant expecting a traditional German restaurant but found a very good Greek restaurant right in the middle of the main square in Esslingen. The restaurant was really empty, but I think this is because of the date and time at which we arrived. We were greeted with some ouzos (Greek drink). We ordered some breaded zucchini, which were incredible, and a potato soup, which was also very very good. The main dishes were a combination of calamari and gyro meat, which were also very good but very very big, so we ended up not being able to finish them. At the end I ordered a double espresso which was ok, and the restaurant gave us some complimentary simple desserts made of Greek yogurt and sweet carrot. The staff was really polite and very friendly, and the restaurant does have a changing room for babies, but is not stroller/wheelchair friendly, as the main entrance has some stairs. I would definitely come back again, but hopefully sometime between 11 and 14:30, on weekdays, which is when they have their mid day menus at better prices.

Super food, super service! While the schnap is too strong with Sternanis flavor, but good to try anyway
