Taverna Kyclades

This place is an authentic Greek restaurant with Greek culture. Κλαίρη was amazing! She welcomed us with the best service. It was my first time whilst my friend who is Greek wanted me to see “Greece in New York” and it didn’t disappoint. Food is shareable when you order it. We ordered 4 appetizers. Very much European style. This restaurant always has a wait time for a good reason. 99 percent of the food is amazing. We have to keep coming back to keep trying everything. You’ll love this place if you like FOOD! 💙

I loved loved this place!!! It was a very busy Monday (Labour Day weekend) but we managed to grab a table inside. Although the place was so busy I loved the atmosphere! Your mouth will just start watering after seeing the awesome wait staff walk by with all the food! We wanted to have a light lunch so we decided to share a Greek salad, grilled calamari and the chicken kabob, the portions are so big that it didn’t feel like a light lunch after all. The food was delicious, fresh and super tasty. Our waiter was great, the whole staff was, in fact, friendly and courteous! They seem to have a lot of regulars, which always speaks great of a restaurant! I can’t wait to come back and try other items from the menu such as the whole fish and octopus!

You won’t find a better place to eat fresh-er fish and/or seafood in the whole of Northeast, prepared to perfection. The kitchen is open for anyone to see, the service is top notch and everyone is always with a smile. The chef is caring, comes on each table and checks on patrons to see if anything is missing. The owner does the same, he’s on top of his business like very few I’ve seen. Great hospitality, great food, super clean and great service. I wish I was living closer, I’d eat there at least twice a week. *this review is for the restaurant at Bayside

I would give 10 for service! Guys, I haven’t received such hospitality in NYC ever. Very attentive, kind and friendly. Yes, they were all very kind. We dined with kids, and all the staff was so patient and mindful about kids. Besides that, water was just appearing in glasses very magically. Our table was always cleaned. Food was great! We had grilled calamari, grilled octopus and fried smelt. Everything was really exquisite! Kids shared pasta, the portion was very big and had lots of seafood there. They loved it! Thank you guys, I really cannot wait to come back! I would also like to mention our server, Juliette, who was taking care of us, thank you!

One of the most famous Greek restaurants in New York. The portions are great, and not so expensive. However not the greatest, especially anything “stuffed”, it’s very average. But any other plates are good! The octopus is delicious and huge, highly recommend! Make sure you reserve a table ahead because there is always a wait time cause is packed!!! Atmosphere is great, the service could be better (they need to be more attentive), but everyone is very nice, and of course I love supporting my fellow Greeks.

One of the popular Greek restaurants in Astoria. It’s always full and long wait. Food is good and price is reasonable for the portion. My favorite dish is the Greek salad. Not sure where they find the tomato which is so fresh and tasty. I have been here a few times. Service is good. But the table is really small and crowded.

One of the best places to get fresh seafood in NYC. All of the dishes we got are great, especially the fried calamari, stuffed clams, and the broiled scallops. The portion is also very generous, and the service is great. They even gave us a free dessert at the end. Will definitely come back to try more dishes
