Reviews describe Souvlaki Authentique as a warm, inviting Greek spot with big portions, fresh ingredients, and reliable flavors, where gyro pita and souvlaki are often praised for their smoky grilled notes, homemade pita, and well balanced tzatziki. Takeout and delivery are common highlights, with generous plates and good value, though a few salads are noted as lacking olives and tomatoes and some dressings feel unusual. Several diners mention standout sides like Greek potatoes with a distinctive sauce and crispy fries, while others point to occasional inconsistencies in meat texture or seasoning. The service is frequently described as friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is cited as cozy and welcoming, making it easy to linger. A number of visits are described as memorable, with many saying they would return for the flavors and comforting feel, while a few experiences note slower service or missteps.
This is a spectacular Greek restaurant. The space is beautifully put together, lots of white & blue in patriotic homage to the Greek flag. The menu covers all of the Greek grill favourites. The pitas have a bit more variety with untraditional options such as a philly cheesesteak option. I went with the traditional Pita Onassis & it was so satisfying. The place wasn't busy so the server had time to converse, he was a very personable young man. I tried a side order of the potatoes as well & they were delicious, so perfectly seasoned. The pricing was reasonable too. This Greek restaurant checks all of the boxes, you will not be disappointed.
Staff are attentive, the meats are flavourful & the portions are generous. I would recommend if if you are looking for some Greek food in the area. Removing a star because the seating area feels a bit tight & could be modestly improved.

Petit resto grec traditionnel parfait ! Le service est agréable, rapide & la serveuse souriante.
La nourriture est réellement bonne & nous a rappeler notre séjour à Athènes.
Je recommande sans hésitation.
Serveuse médiocre! - 9 août 2025.
2 adultes & un enfant de 10 ans, pour manger sur place. La serveuse (la plus petite des 3 sur place), ne prend pas note de notre commande tel que dictée. Elle n'a jamais apporté le set de napperon, ustensiles & serviette pour la 3e personne. Nous avons attendu approximativement 37 minutes avant de demander si ça allait être encore long pour nous faire dire que notre commande n'a pas été passé en cuisine! Table #2. Nous sommes partis sur le champs & elle a osé faire semblant d'être outré!
Takeout order & the chicken souvlaki, rice, gyro was amazing. The entire family loved it. I wish we lived closer than 1600km. It's a small dining room & during our summer visit it was very warm in the restaurant. I'm glad our VRBO was close by.
La Grèce à nos pieds , les plats sont tous bons , mon coup de coeur' la brochettes de poulet & les meilleurs patates grec au monde ( avec la sauce ) avec une bonne bouteille d'eau pétillante Zagori servit par la gentille Dimitra' rapide , succulent & bon prix .🤌
It is really authentic a hidden gem!💎 🌟
Incredibly delicious 😋
After finishing the meal you feel happy satisfied & not bloated which further proves how amazing this place is.
The lady was very welcoming & respectful.
We walked in after a few more people. Waitress was taking order from a group. Nobody else in the shop. Bunch of free tables. Waitress paid no attention to anyone who walked in. We waited for 5 minutes. Thought we will be seated after done with order. But waitress left to back room & never came back. Group in front of us & we left after waiting in the doors for more than 10 minutes waiting & ignored. Disappointing experience right off the doors
