Absolutely delicious! My husband and I stopped here after a long bike ride on the nearby trail, we are healthy eaters and primarily vegan and there was plenty for us to enjoy! Very nice waitress and service, we sat outside with our bikes and it was not a problem. Would definitely come back!

nice but expensive even for lunch; $13 for a small sandwich was disappointing. the entire thing fit in the palm of my hand update: owner has offered a replacement lunch, so i’ll be back to try again! appreciate the gesture of good will

The place is great, however is too small and very hard to get a table. Because the food is fresh and the service is great I can not in good conscience give it less than 5 stars. But the wait is very disappointing, to the point that I actually avoid it. If you can get a table you would love it.

Some of the best service in all the Greek places I had been to and also super fast. I love restaurant that give you something free to start off your meal like Korean food, free bread in French place and free olives here. They are busy. We got here around 7 pm prime time and there are shoveling out orders from the kitchen. We got our dishes in and didn’t wait long. I assume they are well organized and seasoned chef. I love love the trio dips and the mix grill we had for entree. The waiter is so nice to give us extra sauce and pita bread. I would like to get extra veggie next time or double the trio dips. Service again is super. Place is huge can probably hold around 50 people or more. I think they do catering and parties as well. Definitely worth a visit.

We found Pappous Greek Kitchen returning from a trip to the Bronx Zoo. The reviews were spot on. This experience was one of the best our family has encountered. The food was fantastic. We eat Mediterranean a lot, and this was some of the best we've ever had. The service was great and ambiance was very enjoyable. We tried the house sangria and even bought some to take home. If you enjoy Mediterranean food, Pappous delivers some of the best. Highly recommended.

If I could add more stars I would. Everything about this place is amazing. We started with The Marcos and Keik bakaliarou. I tried their sangria, so delicious! Our entrees were the Combo yeero and Combo souvlaki and to top it off we had a Cappuccino with some loukoumades and a Greek coffee with vanilla gelato with espresso. Everything was made to perfection. Perfectly seasoned and fresh tasting. Portions were generous so we took the leftovers home for dinner. Our waitress and waiter were sweet and very friendly. We're very happy we chose this place along the road as we drove back home upstate. I would drive hours to come back here to experience this place again. This place is a jewel. We loved it!
