Reviews of Acropolis Greek Taverna - New Tampa
We were there as a party of 18, and there were two other parties of 10+. That being said, the food was great, service was just okay (server had a bit of an attitude), and the kitchen was super slow. We ordered 10 appetizers, which came out quickly. My mother-in-law ordered her dinner to go, because she was full from the appetizers, and her meal came out boxed and bagged almost immediately! Then the rest of the food took forever. We had a 4:30pm reservation and left around 7:30. My father-in-law said he'd never go back, but I probably will.
Acropolis is a good place to spend your time, and enjoy the food.
I always loved the food quality in here. The portion of foods are good enough to feel full. Also, I love that foods come with fries and salad, especially with the cheese on top of them. I highly recommend trying it.
A great find for us and we love it. The food, location, cleanliness, variety and friendly staff make this a favorite. They offer delicious salads and gyros with much more as well as all kinds beverages. They offer out door smoking area for cigars or anything you wish to smoke if you so desire and a beautiful belly dancer on the weekends. Open much later than other places and offer so much more. The prices are excellent too. We got dinner with desert and beverage and found it outstanding. The place is very clean in all aspects. Highly recommend
I had a hankering for authentic Mediterranean food and Acropolis did not disappoint. This place has improved dramatically since our last visit long before the 🦠. I'm not sure if it's the restaurant refresh or updates to the menu or a combination of both. I had the grilled Snapper and quinoa with artichokes and sun dried tomatoes, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal delicious bite by delicious bite.
Friday 3pm. Not busy.
Outside seating. Service was awesome. She always had a smile. Spinach dip with cheese Flatbread was delicious and definitely worth a try. Same with the stuffed Mushrooms. Acropolis seafood with rice, I loved it. Great place to have dinner! Don't forget dessert. We got baklava cheesecake. So 😋yum! Food was a bit pricey though.
Solid Greek restaurant that has amazing authentic food options to choose from as well as fantastic service! The Sangria is always 2 for 1. A must try as it is absolutely delicious and made fresh daily! They also offer a bottomless mimosa option for brunch on the weekends.
First time eating here. We enjoyed it so much. The service was excellent. I had the Gyro platter as you can see in the pictures. I would eat there again.
This is Johnny from adventurewiththeriveras leaving with a full belly lol.
Went here for the first time for a work holiday dinner and I will be back! Delicious, authentic Mediterranean food and excellent service. The owner came by a couple of times to make sure everything was enjoyable. You don’t see that kind of customer appreciation that much any more. 10/10 would recommend!
Great comfortable date spot with indoor and outdoor seating. Thalya was attentive, knowledgeable and recommended some great drinks. Come by and enjoy hot delicious food, refreshing drinks and excellent ambiance. Higher price, but worth every penny!
Ok. So I hear this place was Under new management, went back and …….
5 stars !
The mixed grill and the hummus was amazing. All fresh food and service was really good. Plus our server (Ariana) was the best ! Definitely my new weekend spot !
How can I forget the hookah double apple was off the chain !!!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Acropolis, a Greek restaurant in my city. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the warm and friendly staff who made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, with beautiful decorations that transported me to the streets of Greece.
The food was absolutely delicious! I started off with the spanakopita, a savory spinach and feta pie, which was perfectly flaky and full of flavor. For my main course, I ordered the lamb gyro, which was served with crispy fries and a refreshing cucumber salad. The meat was tender and succulent, and the flavors in the dish were perfectly balanced.
Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Acropolis and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic and delicious Greek cuisine. The staff was wonderful and the food was top-notch. I can't wait to go back and try some more of their dishes!
Just Had a great experience today at Acropolis on Bruce B. Downs. Really great food that can accommodate any craving. Also, really great service from all around. My server, Sarah took real good care of us and everyone around us.
Great food and fun staff. I have never been disappointed with a meal there and they always have 2 for 1 margs/sangria which makes me happy!
We were 8 girls visited there. We loved the food. Special thanks to that girl who served us. She was so nice. We took chicken kebabs, Pasta santorini, falafal. Also the desert was yummy.
Amazing restaurant!!! All around an amazing restaurant with great food, service, and the hookah is always on point. My favorite chill spot especially outside and I love how they remodeled the outside area. That chocolate cake hits after a great dinner.
The best experience I ever had in this restaurant FOR YEARS ! Everything was spotless and I could not be happier with the food and with our funny and sweet waitress SAMARA. She is definitely a ROCK STAR. Thank you so very much for the amazing service !!!!!
Great service and environment!!! The food was amazing and the artichoke was so good. The new owners are so friendly. I definitely will be coming back more often.
One of our new favorite places! TBH this was my first time eating Greek food, and I’m hooked. From the ambiance, to the friendly staff and management, and beautiful flavorful food, this is a winner!
We started with the Homemade Appetizer Sampler, followed by the Homemade Mousaka “Yia Yia’s Recipe for my husband, and the Beef Kabob Skewers for me. Fresh, perfectly made food and so yummy! For sides we had house rice, roasted vegetables, and potato salad. Everything we ate was perfection. Can’t wait to visit again!
Acropolis New Tampa has some of my favorite Greek food anywhere in the city. Their pita bread is so good that I often get 2 orders, and my wife and I adore their Athenian chicken salad. I highly recommend it, as my wife and I get to-go salads nearly every Friday for a long time.
However, their service and kitchen consistency leaves much to be desired. Now, don't get me wrong, those who are there work hard. Service industry workers are wholly underappreciated. Yet, I routinely wait 15-20 minutes after my takeout order is supposed to be ready. For this most recent visit, I waited 40 minutes for a salad that I was told would only take 10 minutes (it was only 5pm and not busy). The bartender was very busy taking orders over the phone, making drinks, and checking on to-go orders. However, there were numerous servers standing around not offering to help. While I understand that there is probably a division of labor in terms of who is allowed to do what, I think it might need to be reassessed when myself and another customer waited so long. When I was helped by a manager, they were very pleasant. Again, I'm not knocking the people, but I feel the way things run should be reassessed, having worked for 5+ years front of house in a restaurant.
The food quality at Acropolis is great, but it is pretty much a gamble as to whether my Athenian chicken salad will have the right ingredients. I have had probably 5 different combinations of the salad - sometimes no pesto, sometimes with pesto; sometimes without pita strips; sometimes without tomatoes; sometimes with green peppers; sometimes without the feta as requested; sometimes a lot of lettuce, other times I've stopped at Publix to get more lettuce on the way home to add to my salad. This most recent visit, I received the butt of a stalk of romaine in my salad (picture attached).
As with the second paragraph, I really enjoy the food; it tastes delicious. But, I'm almost always frustrated at the order being slightly incorrect, the wait being much longer than expected for a relatively simple order, and the general inconsistencies. What I would say is that you definitely should try this place if you love Greek food, but be prepared that wait times could be long and the food might need to be fixed.
Went to Acropolis in new Tampa and experienced the best service of my life time with Scarlet! Not only was she sweet, funny, and attentive- she made sure my experience was perfect and definitely memorable. The new owner David, and the manager Wael stopped by and shared some conversation with me and I must say- this restaurant is sure going places with a team like that.
This place is great! It’s has a wide space for indoor or outdoor seating for different size groups.
It’s tasty green food that you should try when you’re in town.
We were visiting from Houston and met up with some friends. I was surprised by how many specials they have each day. It was quite tempting.
If I was from Florida, I’d for sure be a regular. :)
We sampled the chicken skewers and Greek salad; nice selection of beer and wine with three cocktails on tap! Try the shrimp appetizer
Absolutely amazing, and highly recommend! I was in town from Atlanta visiting a friend and we decided to come by late on a Saturday night. We received very friendly service, delicious food, and lively atmosphere! They had a DJ and belly dancer entertaining as well. We enjoyed a couple of apps, shared a salad, enjoyed some hookah, and received complimentary baklava for dessert! Will def return and recommend if you are looking for delicious Greek food and a fun atmosphere!
My Mom and I love this place , they have the best kebbi in town , my mom love the flatbreads and there PATHIO it’s air conditioned and nicely decorated.
I’ve been there three times last week, they have the best salmon plate specially when you ask for the Greek dressing with it 👌🏼 CHEF’s kiss
Food was amazing , the customer service is perfect i loved the atmosphere and the view .. cheese cake baklava was amazing . I recommend everyone to join their Saturdays party and the regular days.
Great service! The cheese flambe was pretty entertaining and the cheese also was delicious :-) and one of my favorite things there. We ordered a couple of beef kebab plates and the steak was cooked as asked, which was medium rare, and it was pretty tasty though I would have liked more salt and pepper. The Gyro Trio was also pretty excellent and the roasted vegetables were crisp and tasted completely fresh. Would definitely recommend this spot!
Visited on a rather busy night, my bartender Scarlet was absolutely amazing! Was extremely polite and attentive while also assisting other members of the staff. Her quick service and hard work ethic was definitely noticeable and certainly added to the overall experience of my visit. 10/10 I would highly recommend anyone who visits to get Scarlet as your bartender
Love the environment, and food. My server Bailey was great, if your ever close by stop in. You won’t regret it.
Came for a lunch with co-workers today. Food was amazing. Everything came out fresh and very hot. I had not been to this location in quite some time but everything was so good. The manager came around and made sure to ask how good everything was which I really appreciated. Many restaurants don't do this anymore. I would recommend you give them a try!
Great location. Our server was friendly and nice. The food is good as always. My daughter and I had the shawarma and falafel wrap with a salad.
Appetizer sampler was awesome. Fresh, bright, and the lightly toasted pita was an unexpected delight.
This restaurant has great mediterranean food and excellent customer service. I love enjoying their awesome hookah after a tasty meal. Very clean and impressive 👍🏼
Always great service and amazing food. I always ask the staff for their favorite choice ("if you were hungry right now, what would you eat?") now and just eat those because it's all very delicious. Don't skip out on having a mint lemonade. Reminded me of my time spent overseas drinking that same drink while smoking sheesha.
We came tonight and had an amazing meal! The stuffed mushroom appetizer is to die for...super crispy and perfectly seasoned. The Acropolis salad is massive, so come hungry. The pasta is wonderful, especially since I'm a vegetarian. Ask for the server Austin, he's the bomb! Great recommendations from him for drinks.
I'm late on this review as we had an evening meal in the middle of March 2022.
Eating lite after a long travel, we had a Greek salad, octopus appetizer, and calamari. We also had the house sangria being offered at the time.
The sangria was most excellent. The Greek salad was very good and with an excellent potato salad scoop included with the most interesting house Greek dressing I'm still trying to duplicate. The calamari was fried to perfection with the squigglies (tentacles) included.
The best, was the octopus. Some of the best I have ever had, and a generous portion. (To Chef, I have ruined so much octopus trying to replicate your recipe, can you tell me your secret?!)
Merritt was an excellent server with very helpful menu and drink suggestions.
This location is a place to visit if you are looking for Greek in the area.
Cant believe I've lived by this hidden gem for this long and not given them a try. Food was amazing. Drinks had way too much ice so they got watered down pretty fast. The outside area is a whole vibe and very comfortable seating. I will definitely be back soon
Delicious meal from appetizers to dessert! Fantastic service. We were seated quickly on a Saturday evening (with reservations) and were given first class treatment. Fun family dining. We will return soon.
We weren't greeted or taken to a table after 3-4 minutes of waiting. Waiters passed us and didn't acknowledge us. So my daughter said let's seat ourselves. We did. The manager came and asked us if we've been helped. I told him we weren't greeted so we sat ourselves. He gave us a free dessert and treated us like royalty. Great service and food😊
The service is great! Always come here for large lunch gatherings. The dips are amazing and made fresh, its always worth trying at least once. Our server Thalya did a great job with the service she provided, thank you.
Awesome great. When we go the food it always good. They serve us in a timely manner we can talk with the manger. By the way fantastic person 😊. But all an al great place to seat chill and have great food
Absolutely AMAZING! The food is delicious, always fresh, and never a disappointment. Corinna behind the bar is an absolute gem! Not only is she an amazing bartender but a great conversationalist, makes you feel right at home! If you are looking for a truly great experience make sure to come to Acropolis!
Do not select Toast Local to order to go from this restaurant. My husband put in a $65 To-Go order through the Toast Local app since it said “Business Preferred” figuring it charged the restaurant less fees. He was given a 40 minute wait time for our food. When we arrived to pick up our order we were informed by the restaurant owner that or order had not been registered in their system since they don’t actually work with Toast Local and the menu we ordered from on the Google Maps listing wasn’t even their menu. He told us that he’d just taken over the restaurant in December of 2022 and that he’d been trying to get Google to take down the Toast Local choice from the business listing to no avail and showed us how to email Toast for a refund while immediately putting a rush order for the food we wanted. We ate dine in and were given a free dessert for our troubles that was absolutely delicious 😋 The entire meal was wonderful, including the waiting staff. We’ve eaten here many times and always enjoyed it but this was the first time since the change of ownership and renovations to the restaurant. Everything is 10x better now!
Best experience ever the food was really good and the service one of the best friendly staff and you have to try their hookah
First time here and was AMAZED! Our server Sarah could not have been better…she was awesome!
The food was fabulous; recommend app sampler. Gyro trio was incredible and Kefta was incredible. Please take the time to go. Authentic…we will be back. FYI-try Orzotini. Trust me 😉
The food was amazing. We were a party of 12 ppl. Had reserved a table in advance. Everything was neat and set when we arrived. We had come to celebrate a friend's birthday. Staff was very sweet. Owner personally came over to check how we were all doing. It was very nice when all staff joined us in singing 'happy birthday'. It was our first experience and loved it. Thank you Acropolis team, for making it memorable!
Maria, Austin and Valeria were incredible. Such genuine nice people with excellent customer service. The food was really good as well. Would definitely come here more often!
This place is delicious! I had the gyro platter which came with lamb, beef, pita, tatziki, salad, and french fries. I also had the baklava, but it was $5 for one little piece, so I would not get it again even though it was fantastic. My wife got the chicken gyro platter and she enjoyed her food. The service was a little slow, but I think they were just understaffed today. Will definitely be back.
One of the best restaurants in town everything we got was fresh and they have amazing customer service. The hookah is always perfect after a delicious meal. They also have a great selection of drinks. Highly recommend!!!
The best date-night experience. Austin was an excellent server who was attentive and knowledgeable with many details about each dish/drink. Food was delicious. We’ll be back!
Amazing food and the best customer service experience we have had in a long time!! I will be coming back very soon. Every single dish was fresh and tasted amazing. The owner was so attentive making sure everyone was good and we really appreciate the experience we had there.
We've been a fan of Acropolis for years (>15). The best locations (from our perspective) are the Bruce B Downs location and the St Pete location. The BBDowns location is recently under new management. You can tell. Everything is great/better: service is VERY good, food is excellent, hookah is both delivered fast and tended to frequently. If you go there, you'll likely see us ;-).
I’ve been coming to this place since 2017 always great customer service. They have great prices on hookah and drink specials daily. I truly don’t ever regret my visits
Best Greek food ever! Wonderful service and beautiful environment.
it's been many years since i've been here. they're in the middle of a huge menu change and change of management/ownership i was told. you can tell. things were a little chaotic and lackadaisical at the same time.
1) sit down in the booths and look up at the lights. needs regular dusting badly. whole place just needs a little more maintenance and cleaning.
2) servers need to write things down. she seemed rushed to get away to type in our order and still got it wrong. It doesn't matter how long you've been doing this, it's more professional to just write it down.
Super friendly staff and owners! Bekim was a great host and very socially inviting. Their Athenian chicken salad was flavorful and hits your salad cravings to the max! I recommend! Dancers and singers on the weekends!!
Hubby and I went to Acropolis for lunch today. Kuddos to the new owners. Menu is the same and the food is just as delicious as we have been accustomed to. Authentic Greed cuisine in a great atmosphere. Pictured is the Gyro platter. (Greek salad included)
This restaurant is one of my go to restaurants in the area. Normally they aren’t too busy and I’ve never needed a reservation. I love there sampler with hummus, tzatziki, and babaghanoush and normally get their gyro platter. I don’t care for their sangria, but that’s the only negative I can comment on.
Delicious food!! Great wines and margaritas . Had fun with family and Friends
We loved going to this restaurant. Unfortunately it has changed owners and they will not substitute anything on a plate. I asked for veggies instead of fries was told we can't. The service is ok, a bit slow when the restaurant was empty.
Come see Scarlet the bartender the best in Town. Managers are present and very welcoming. Amazing food and great drinks specials.
My new happy hour and weekend hang out!!
Love it
Our experience here was great! The food was delicious and came to us very fast. Our server, Austin, gave us great recommendations. We’ll definitely come back
Wow this is a great restaurant to come to for authentic Greek food. I enjoyed my experience with the staff members and our food was wonderful. We even received a free dessert of Baklava, since it was our first time visiting here. It was more than enough food and the restaurant is filled with passionate designs and decorations. GO EAT HERE! 😉
I went with a party of 6 and wooooow! EVERYTHING was freaken delicious! I tried from everyone's plate lol the sampler appetizer was so darn good, calamari was on point, and all the entrees were delicious, especially the fish sliders with those fires topped imwith goat cheese 🤤. Just chefs kisses all around!
We went in after a long drive and didn’t really have that high expectations, but this place surely impressed us! The food is really good and tasty, the margaritas are well made, and the service was super friendly. They have great happy hours and all day specials. We will definitely be back, so glad we found this place!
Absolutely great place in New Tampa! Way and Leah couldn’t have been anymore accommodating and the staff was so sweet. Definitely a great go to and place! Thanks Way!!!
Excellent food and service. Jacob was so attentive and made sure we were consistent in what we needed to enjoy our meal. Highly recommend and ask for Jacob
Great family place. Loved the new outdoor layout. The staff was really accommodating to our large group and we did not feel rushed at all. Will be back more often!
This place is great l, but not amazing. The food you're paying is a bit overpriced in my opinion, but don't let that stop you from coming the first time. This is a type of restaurant when you want to enjoy quality time with friends and family. The atmosphere is great, but I wouldn't just come here by myself next time just for the food. The waiters and waitresses are super friendly!
First time in a Greek restaurant and was a very good experience! The food was delicious!! And we also received and excellent service!
I like this place. The food was great and the customer service was awesome. I ordered the meatballs with a side of rice and Greek fries - most excellent. The bread they give you for starters is really good! The portions are large. They will perform a dance for you after 7. This place is fun!
Open, breezy atmosphere with a minimalist touch in decorating that’s still well done and inviting. A full bar with three televisions and an expansive covered porch makes this an excellent spot for a warm summer night out.
The atmosphere has changed. It doesn't seem as fun and cozy. The food was ok. It seemed different too
Great place, great food and very engaged and enthusiastic staff. Places like this remind me why we pay for service in America and you don't in other places (Europe specifically). Really enjoyed my time here with my wife and mother-in-law. Fun vibe, great food and cool people.
Food was fantastic and filling. It was so good, definitely going back. Staff was friendly and attentive. We did not leave hungry.
David was great, came here for a work party and all the staff were delightful! Great food, great service, great vibes!
The food is amazing… service is awesome… they have great chocolate dessert… very family friendly place… they have hookah… its perfect for all occasions.. I highly recommend this very location of new tampa.
Food was great. The staff was very friendly. We were party of 12 ppl, the management was great. The owner was personally checking if we were comfortable. Great food great service.
We went to lunch here on Monday. We sat at the bar, there were a few tables of people outside and a few people inside. We split a gyro platter, Greek salad and grape leaves. Everything was delicious and priced reasonably. The restaurant and bathrooms were clean. The staff was attentive and friendly.
Every time we have come to eat at Acropolis in New Tampa, we have had a wonderful time. The food is flavorful & we highly recommend the Saganaki as an appetizer. The servers are very attentive and pay attention to detail. We LOVE Sarah!
Celebrated my friend’s birthday it was a great experience. Food is Amazing and also the service is good. Loved it
Visited primary for hookah and had a great time despite only being in for a few beverages and appetizers. Austin was an excellent waiter and did not pressure us at all, yet was very attentive. Pricing for hookas and quality makes this a great place for consideration, especially since multiple can share one rig. Also enjoyed the Greek coffee and saganaki that came with a fiery show! Friendly place and great location (indoor and sub outdoor seating) - will be back!
It was my first time at Acrop and I must say that the food was amazing, service was great, martini was very tasty, and they even had a live belly dancer. I will definitely be back! This is my new spot!
Awesome food, fun environment. Visited with a group of 15 coworkers, and everyone enjoyed their dish. We'll definitely come back for more!
Great food and even better service. Great place to come with friends and have a nice time. Me and collage buddies from USF find this as our classic restaurant to come to chill.
1st time visit. Really great food!! Tasty and delightful. The owner is amazing and was very inviting. Definitely visit here when in town!
Best Greek food in Tampa . Lamb lollipops, Greek salad unlike anywhere else , chicken kebabs, are amazing. Always eat here always love it. Victoria was great !!
The tirosalata was the best part of the meal. Salads are large, too large for the plate even, but the dressing is too sweet. Falafel was overcooked and dry. Tzatziki was runny; likely from the shredded cucumber they use. Likely will not be back any time soon.
Great atmosfera, outstanding food. Everything was fresh and delicious. Bree take care of us, and she was great, cold beer and happy people!
Had a great lunch here. Had the Horiatiki salad with chicken. Fresh vegetables, well seasoned, and a nice portion. Left feeling good! Highly recommend this restaurant, will definitely come back.
Victoria is such an amazing server and made the entire night very eventful. David is also a very generous manager. 10/10, would definitely go again.
Went to acropolis, enjoyed a gyro and some great entertainment at the bar from Lindsey and scarlet!!! These two are so awesome. If you want some great food ;) and a show, go to acropolis.
Absolutely amazing experience I loved the food and atmosphere so much such a good restaurant and hookah bar I couldn’t recommend this place enough the staff and management was wonderful loved my whole experience
This place is a hidden gem! I was sat quickly, served promptly, and overall satisfied. Shoutout to David for running a great restaurant and putting customers first; and Victoria she did amazing with the Saganaki!
.
This is an amazing place especially the outdoor space. Food is delicious!!! The owner took care of the dessert for our group.
Got the chicken kebab. The food was great but the service was even better. Thalya was quick, communicative, funny, and overall exceptionally professional. Eating here was a top tier experience. Thank you Thalya!
Best experience I have had in long time the service was friendly and amazing and the food was beyond good This is my new go to spot! I absolutely love this place so much
Excellent attention, good atmosphere, exquisite food 100% recommended
Amazing atmosphere and staff... food was fast and delicious.. David was amazing.. Great place for a gathering or just relaxing ,, the entertainment was great as well.
The best octopus in town! Plus they have the amazing Old St Pete Gin for the only martin's you need! That Scarlett's on fire!
Food and service was great. Prices are reasonable and staff was very friendly. We will be back!
Opa!!! Great place, live music, The food is amazing, the staff s very friendly and Jason the manager is super attentive. Amazing place to have fun, throwing napkins, breaking plates and doing a little dance!!!
The best place , lovely atmosphere, Amer was great with his services and helpful to let us decide what to eat and the food was great , coming back next week with family :)
Food was unparalleled. Outside seating was great especially this time of the year. Will definitely revisit when in town again.
Amazing food and great service. The blonde server Maria at the entrance was so friendly ;). Great job to Valeria and Austin also.
Great Food Great Hospitality Manger and Owners are always Present Loved it ...You have to visit Scarlett the bartender. Will be back.
I have not been here in years. Menu has changed and the ownership as well. It was a really great experience.
Sara is a very sweetheart waitress! Food was great! I definitely want to come back here !
We went in Friday night around 8pm absolutely amazing food, sangria, entertainment, and service!!!
This is my go-to every time! The food is amazing and service.
I called and ordered the Strawberry Fields salad with chicken to go. From the moment I walked in the door, I was welcomed with smiles by everyone I encountered. Stacey, the owner took time to talk with me as I waited for my food. The salad was amazing. I definitely will be back to enjoy the atmosphere, friendly staff and amazing food in person.
Food is tasty. Service is very attentive. Nice and roomy for lunch time and business talk. Menus have a good variety of option. Recommend for friends.
What a treat finding this gem. Awesome food , great people and comfortable seating and atmosphere. Hadn't been before but a casual observer wouldn't have known because these folks go over and above to make YOU comfortable and content.
Been coming here for years, it is my favorite spot in Tampa. The food is amazing the service is awesome the new owners Dave & Fehim are the friendliest, they make you feel right at home.
On Saturday Dj and belly dancing performance, lots of fun. And most definitely the Margaritas is heavenly good 😊
I absolutely recommend it 😍 Big time
Always love coming to acropolis, food is consistently amazing, and Austin always provides great service. Cannot wait to come back again soon.
The food was a little bland. We were rushed because someone booked the whole restaurant for an event.
Love the food here when we're craving some Greek food. Their hummus app is amazing. My go to is the gyro platter, it has a great amount of food and the garlic sauce for the salad has such a great taste. Everything on the menu is excellent, my son loves the fry fish, which they provide a generous amount.
Acropolis is the go to for a nice evening spot. We love coming here for hookah and appetizers. Our favorite and best server by far is Addie(number 1 of course)! She is the most efficient and attentive to our needs and always has a sense of humor. Highly recommend the rose hookah if you’re into that. Thank you Addie for the great service!!
Edit to reply to the owner: I didn't know they were half off!! We will definitely be back to take advantage of such a great deal. Thanks guys!
Great place very good environment and waitresses are the best always checking on you and lastly food is just great.
Food prepared perfectly, beautiful presented, top class wait-staff in a well appointed venue.
Absolutely delicious pasta lunch special. Pasta with carrots capers mushrooms some red pepper and three large amazing meatballs the bread was delicious too
Food is amazing and Bre is very accommodating. We enjoy our foods here! Thank you 🙏 …
Excellent dinner. Was totally stuffed! Brought food home and had tonight for dinner. Will go back. Thanks
Found this place online , needed a late night dinner while arriving into town. The salad and the dressing were awesome. It was difficult to decide which to get salad or fries so I chose both. Glad I did. I ordered the Athenian chicken wrap and the wrap was just as good. The server Danielle was super nice. I highly recommend this place.
The food is so delicious 😋, the octopus was super delicious , people are so friendly and active. I like this place a lot . …
I am not usually a person to leave a review however I do read them. This place exceeded my expectations! The food was AMAZING and the staff was kind and attentive. I was very impressed with the service, our server was a curly haired man and he was wonderful and we got our food pretty quickly. My husband and I had the privilege of meeting the owners and they made sure our experience was top notch, which it was! This will definitely be a regular spot for us and we highly recommend this restaurant!
Entire staff was amazing and attentive! Food was fresh and hot! Absolutely loved the hookah!!!!!
Food is fresh gourmet and the prices are very good service five stars
Thanks guys you are awesome
Excellent service and food is amazing….can only recommend it. Very attentive and friendly service.
Calamari was undercooked and chewy. Kibbeh and fish was good. Roasted vegetables was a little salty.
Best place to be in
Love the food the presentation and the lovely welcoming of Jackie and the kindness of the owners.
You should visit
Great food, location and service. Thank you for making our birthday dinner special!!
Good food. Tzatziki was very good as well as hummus. Went on a Sunday around 7pm and service was pretty lackluster. Server apologized. (“new people in kitchen are still learning”) At that point it was just hummus and tzatziki that we had ordered…we said that’s fine, but we may not be able to order dinner because our clock was running down on the babysitter’s time. We were assured that it wouldn’t take forever. It kinda did. Oh well.
Great service! Especially Maria, Valeria and Austin. Super friendly and great food.
Scarlet did an awesome job with taking my order & in a respectful manner. Will definitely come back again!!
This place was absolutely magical! We came on what appeared to be a very special evening, with the live band and dancers, even the workers were having an amazing time! Food and drinks are excellent! There was a problem but that was correct right away! Amazing place!
Great food always, this is a sit down and enjoy being pampered type of atmosphere.
Food so good , service is great , Amer is the best , will definitely come back :) thank you
The food was super. The octopus was wonderful as well as the fish dish.
Great Gyros! Smaller than most places, but you get multiples instead of just one. The smaller size makes them much easier to eat. The staff is very nice, and very accommodating. If you go, be sure and save room for the Baclava Cheesecake. Truly one of the best desserts ever!!!
Amazing Salad and great service!
Fresh ingredients, very delicious.
Scarlett is an amazing server!!! The food and atmosphere being wonderful is just a plus 😊. Try the Saganaki!
First time for my wife and me and it was amazing. We got the spanikopita and the gyro platter comes with small greek salad and fries with 2 small gyros $22 and we're full. Definitely going back and highly recommend
Scarlett does an amazing job. We enjoy her as our bartender.
Excellent food, excellent prices. We keep coming back!
Visited again (big surprise) on 9/17/2022. Food is still excellent and a good value. Service (shout out to Thalya!!) is great. Very friendly staff. We'll keep returning.
Austin is an amazing server, very attentive. Love the atmosphere and food.
The food is delicious. Gerek salad is amazing. I love feta cheese and calamata olives. Dressing is also good. My server is Scarlet. She is very kind and her suggestion is nice. Service is fast and friendly. Hostess is so welcoming. End of the food you should try Baklava and Greek coffee. Good job guys.
Service not great but food was great. Belly dancers a fun addition.
Such great service, our server Bekim was very friendly and nice
Ehh. Not great. Not terrible. Service was okay, but it was the bare minimum. Could have been better since it wasn't packed and our party was pretty easy. No one at the table (of 7) was really satisfied with there meals. But good service is hard to find these days so it could have been a fluke who knows. It was our first time there though, and we probably wouldn't go back unless it was random and we had to meet someone there or something.
Scarlett is awesome! Knows the menu well and is super helpful! will be back for sure!
Great authentic Greek cuisine. Full bar. All around great.
New to the Tampa area and this place was so warm and fun. Staff was very nice and had great customer service. Clean facilities and the owners took time to get to know me and my wife. The lamb lollipops are so good, the hookah bar has a great vibe and they have very good cocktails. We’ll definitely be making this a staple date night place.
I gave it the 3 stars because the food was good. I went for a work lunch appointment and it was not busy. The server was absolutely terrible. This may be her 1st server job and if so she needs more training. Shadowing. I really thought I was being punked. But no Ashton. When we were leaving no one said thank you or have a nice day. And yet they were just standing at the bar. I will visit other locations because the menu is fabulous but I will not visit this location again.
When they found out it was my husband's birthday, they went the extra mile to make it special! The staff was lovely and the belly dancer was such a great experience!
The food was excellent. Reasonable prices. And our server Clay was very professional but very friendly and efficient. We will definitely come back on our next visit to Tampa.
Food was good. Service slow. Don't know if waitress or kitchen were short staff. Took long time to get anything we ordered ,simple as extra napkins,note water,etc. Disappointed no dancer. They are known for there belly dancers. Very different atmosphere.
I love this place! Andrea. the bartender. server, hostess and all of the above is such a wonderful kind funny woman. The food is excellent but her attention to detail and customers is always welcomed with a smile and positivity. She keeps me going back for more happiness. Thank you Andrea! See you soon!
Not the same Acropolis that was my absolute favorite restaurant. Went on Saturday night at 8, we had to sit in bar area or outside, because of a private party that didn't start til 11. No belly dancer or dancing waiters, dj or breaking plates. Asked for bread with dip that they used to bring for a small fee, no longer have it. Service messed up our order, did correct it quickly . Food was good and that was it. By the way the server said they do the private party every weekend. I will try the other locations again but won't be back to new Tampa location major let down. Feel like private party is their priority.
Nice place, excelent Mediterranean food. Fast service. you should get there
I've been here multiple times for diner and the service and atmosphere is very nice. A bit disappointed by their lunch portion, but great place!
Got my cleaning next door, they recommended this place, wow I love it! Soooo tasty, clean and great ! Highly recommended!
The appetizers are so delicious, try the calamari or the spinach dip!
We had a good experience. The tirosalata was delish but the pitas were not my favorite (softer than my palette prefers). Our meals were yummy as well. Jose R. was a cool server and gave just enough attention without hovering (kind on the eyes as well). Definitely a place we will revisit. 😋 …
My boyfriend and I were on a double date and all of us were seated next to this loud and crazy party. Our server was doing the entire patio and boy, did she have her hands full! She was so nice and as attentive as she possibly could be when you have a full patio including a party of 15 women! What an awesome server, kudos to her for keeping her cool!
I really like this place! The food and drinks are pretty solid and the service is good!
They never go wrong with the octopus; get it because it's delicious and the capers with the tomatoes are always so good together. The Kebobs are always good as well. I'd prefer them to be a bit juicier next time and the salmon was a little too charred, but it wasn't bad either. A little improvement would do this place really good. Mediterranean food is my favorite because it's my culture, so it would make me happy to see this place amp up their food. Service is good, a little slow but we didn't mind either.
They are remodeling, but everything was great. Try the Sangria!
This place is Awesome!
First time ever visiting Acropolis (New Tampa)
Took the family to celebrate my son's birthday.
Thank you Jeffery and Diamond for your friendly and incredible service.
Plenty of dine-in room and spacious outdoor patio.
Friendly staff and the food is authentic and delicious.
I will definitely be back.
Loved our dinners and sitting outside by the fountain was lovely. Greek dressing was AMAZING. Our server Merritt was super sweet. Will ask for her again!
This is the best place ever! This location has the greatest service, food and drinks! Thank you to the manager Way for making every experience there memorable and Leah fantastic server. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Delicious food for an appropriate price! About $14 a plate depending what you get.
Very good food. I came from Miami and pretty good experience and good quality/price!
So great and the food there it's too delicious
Wide variety of food and fair pricing. Hookah availability was a wonderful bonus and is per hook-up, rather than per person ($16 per Hookah). Hostess was quite kind and very attentive to our orders, and frequently checked up on us if we needed anything.
Thank you, Sophia!
The service is excellent, the staff is really kind. There is plenty of space and they are very friendly with little fido. The food is fresh and tasty. I loved the salad and the lamb gyros. Extra bonus: They offer USF students/staff a discount.
Service was fast. Server, Austin was very friendly and attentive!
Under new ownership (New Tampa). Food was delicious, portions were very good, and service was spot-on! The patio looks great and was a very pleasant setting for my lunch. Will definitely return soon!
Not the Acropolis I remembered. It was my first time back after 4 years, the food was average, and the atmosphere mid.
Had the seafood wasn't much seafood except pasta with lots of butter
Great food and friendly service. Scarlet is friendly and making sure your drinks are full. Eddie who is one of the owners and runs the location makes sure you are happy and enjoying your experience. Great place.
This was the first time I ordered takeout from this location and compared to the others, this food was the worst. I always order lamb chops rare, so when I get to Ocala they are medium, even reheated...these were well before reheated and the potatoes were shriveled up ends of the potato. I have never had potato salad on a Greek salad but there it was right in the center, and a stray burnt French fry.
I will make the further drive to Ybor City or Kennedy from now on
This place has potencial to be a 5 star restaurant! Their problem is how inconsistent they are.
Servers are amazing, manager is outstanding, vibe is great, drinks, happy hour is one of the best around the area. But the food could be a hit or miss everytime you go, sometimes is just amazing, sometimes is just bad. Last time we went (we are regulars) food was terrible, my tabooleh was wilted and watery, the hummus was so garlicky (never happened before) it was so unpleasant to eat, my husband had a whole rotten piece of lettuce head in his salad, my daugther’s burger was wet, saggy, raw inside. This has happened before but we keep coming back because we want the restaurant to do good but seriously they need to get things in checked in the kitchen.
Great after work place to meet up and have a meal and some drinks with coworkers. Our waitress Leah was awesome and very patient with our group, as well as knowledgeable about the menu and other aspects of the restaurant
Appetizer (forgot the name) was delicious!! Big, juicy gyros also!
I absolutely love this place. The remodel looks so good. Food is insanely good. The new owners are the amazing people with a great staff. Can’t say enough about them.
My family and I went few times to this restaurant, the food and the service always exceeds expectations! Tonight we had Veneta taking care of our table and she was amazing! Checked on us often and made sure we were not missing or need anything! I highly recommend asking for her! She goes above and beyond.
Thanks for the amazing night!!!!
Everything was amazing! Our waiter Jeff was Kind and Helpful. The food was delicious, I've been their 3 times since I've first gone within 2 weeks! Will revisit soon.
Food was fresh and delicious.
Had the seafood wrap and there was no fishy taste or smell very fresh,clean tasting and perfectly cooked
Also had the all american burger and it was cooked to perfection. I prefer my burgers well done and i always run the risk of eating a dry burger. This was anything but that. Juicy and flavorful.
Its refreshing when you find a place that gets every menu item right!
Best Greek food if you can't get the tarpon springs sponge docks LOL
Large meal with co-workers today and all was perfect!
Food was great. The staff was even better.
Always great tasting food and excellent service. I highly recommend.
Food is delicious! The hummus is the best in Tampa Bay! Chicken and fish dishes are tasty, and portions are perfect! The waitstaff is extremely friendly and attentive! Highly recommend!
Solid Greek food. Had a great every time.
Good food. Good wait staff. Hostess needs a personality update.
The food was very well prepared and the belly dancing was such fun! Service was attentive. It was a lovely dining experience. There were couples, families, babies, children all enjoying and being comfortable here. Our first visit, we will be back!
Food was very good, just had appetizers, which is a perfect way to taste a little bit of everything. Service was great, waitress was very accommodating.
I am very happy I tried this restaurant. First, let me say, I do not like trying new foods. The food was amazing! Second, I've been craving baklava for a very long time AND I love cheesecake. Tonight I had baklava cheesecake........BAKLAVA CHEESECAKE!!!!! 🤤🥴🥴. I got a second one to-go and I will be going back. Also, the greek fries are a must 😌 s.o to Sophie for being such an awesome waitress.
My husband and I went here for valentine's day. The food was good and the service was fairly quick. The atmosphere was a little lacking, it seemed much nicer online. I was expecting a unique experience, but it felt like any other chain restaurant. Overall it was a pleasant experience though.
Chicken and Lamb Gyro were good, not the best I’ve had but were very good. Staff was amazing. The greek fries were surprisingly amazing.
Food was delicious! It took an hour to get the food when it wasn't busy. The waitress was friendly but never refilled my coffee...which was fresh and delicious.
We had a great time the appetiser late was great! Nice outdoor seating as well.
Excellent Grrek Cusine , they also have outdoor seating.
We absolutely loved this place. We live in Winter Park (Orl) and wanted something different. The food was great, fresh and authentic. Our server Sam took amazing care of us. He explained everything we didn't know on the menu. He recommended things that was spot on delicious. After our delightful dinner the entertainment was spectacular. The dancer and the musician was very talented and engaging with the crowd. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone. I love this restaurant and will return as often as I can..
The food was awesome but honestly the service was the best. Scarlett was so attentive and funny I had the best time. Definitely will be back just because of her. Super cute too.
Excellent food and service! The baklava was amazing!!!!
Food was very good. Server was awesome.
I have been coming here for over 10 years since the original in Ybor. I get more disappointed each time. They decided to go commercial. It’s not the same place. People who have been here since the original will understand.
Went with a group of 5. Everyone enjoyed the food.
Great Greek dishes served by a friendly staff.
Had shrimp appetizer and Greek meatball entree. Both were great.
Loud greek atmosphere with music, dancing and plate breaking every hour.
Would recommend
I love this place! Great food, great people!
One of my favorite places to eat in all of Tampa bay.
Nice place, good food, service was quite good.
Seems to be much better. We went during the day when it's dead. It is a very different experience when busy at night normally. Our waitress was great and they didn't give us a problem substituting for food allergies like they used to. Hopefully a good sign that changes were made!
This place was fun and exciting. There was live music and a belly dancer on a Saturday night. For each guests birthday, the wait staff sang and celebrated! The good was amazing! My friend and I shared the gyro platter and my other friends had the mussels and octopus. All great choices!
Very friendly wait staff, though some times they all went missing, very nice atmosphere. The Gyros were not up to par in my opinion, but the baklava cheese cake is a game changer.
I ordered gyro platter and my husband ordered falafel platter. We both enjoyed our meals. The lemon chicken soup was a bit too thick and not enough lemon or chicken for my taste. Service was great, the waitress was friendly and checked in on us often. We'll return for another meal!
Waitress was new, still learning the ropes, she had too many tables. Kitchen messed up my order. Greek potatoes tasted like they soaked them in lemon juice and them baked them. They need a sauce.
Well, we won’t be back. Ordered mousaka and gyros. The gyros were dry and honestly, the worst I’ve had. The mousaka was ok. The best thing was the fries.
I like the food here, the service and the place. My only concern was in my last visit. I ordered a dessert, and there was no description for it. I couldn't figure out the ingredients. After a while, I was so dizzy and I threw up. My night was ruined and I had a very bad night. I discovered from google that this dessert might have cognac while I've never drunk alcohol. So I sent a message asking them about it and I never received an answer. I think you should add a description next to the desserts or at least the waiters should give a hint about it.
Just took my girlfriend here for a birthday dinner. It was the first time either of us had been here. Wine was on point, the food was even better and we came on a Wednesday where wine was half off. Our server Zoe was amazing! She made it a night to remember and even gave my girlfriend a free dessert for her birthday. was definitely experience and we will be coming back frequently!
Solid place. great staff, good food, lots of seating options (indoor and outdoor which is covered and fanned. Aiden was our server and did a top notch job, will def be back many times again.
Monday nights seem to be pretty relaxed, but as the weekend approaches, the party starts to pop off. The food is flavorful and filling, and the staff is friendly and fun. So long as you don't mind napkins in the ceiling tiles and all over the floor from their periodic celebratory dancing, you're gonna have a good time.
The food was good, and the service courteous and attentive. The menu covers a good deal of traditional Greek dishes and is well balanced out. Premium priced, but with quality dishes that don't disappoint. Atmosphere was quiet at times, festive at others.
Food was great everything service was great it was a excellent experience
Hello. Please give our thanks to the Manager(s) and others for the wonderful room and bottle of sparkling wine for our Anniversary stay. We had an amazing time. The place was so comfortable, the food at Acropolis was absolutely spectacular. Our waitress was just wonderful. Looking forward to staying with you in the future. What a great place!
Not bad at all for a successful chain of restaurants. Large airy dining room. Tastefully decorated. Fresh, hot chicken lemon soup. The pita platter was delicious. Warm friendly service, moderate prices.
The atmosphere was good and so was the staff.... It was my 1st time there... Hot bread, nice size side salad But the gyro platter came out luke warm... I'm a person that doesn't like to return food so I eat it.... Good flavor to it but just came out warm...
I spoke to the waitress she felt bad but offered next I see her to remind her for a 10% discount! Very very good on her part to offer!!! I'll be back again!!!
We started with the dolmades and the baba ghanouj. Both were delicious but then the rest of the meal was not so great. There were four of us and we all got something different but none of us were very impressed. Not very flavorful. Its not like it was not good, just not great. There are a lot of places to get an amazing meal so I feel kind of disappointed when a place does not live up to the hype.
We had a great lunch, took advantage of the margarita special, enjoyed the outdoor dining and had lots of food. Jillian is a great server! Will definitely be back!
If the food wasn't delicious, I would give them 1 star.
I ordered for pick up and was told it would be ready in 20 minutes. I arrived 5 mins earlier but ended up waiting almost 1 hour for my order.
I told two employees of my status and wasn't updated at all later on. Turns out my food had been ready for 30 mins.
If only bartender wasn't chatting so much...
Feeling dsappointed and robbed of my time.
Good food. Waitress had to be asked three times to bring a tall glass for water, didn't bring lemon or hot sauce my roommate asked for. But she was very pretty and not completely bad.
Was in town for the weekend celebrating my 27th Anniversary. My server was Abagale, who was a delight! The food was delicious and the Drinks were on point! The servers put in a fun show. I would for sure go back !
Great place to eat. The foods amazing, the wine list is nice, and they are very family friendly. We walked in with 5 adult and a toddler and our waiter didn't even blink an eye.
He was attentive without being overbearing, and was able to fix an order I messed up quickly(I always get the words spinach pie and the flaming cheese mixed up).
The music was at a nice low level that made talking easy. Though be careful what you say, our waiter over heard it was ky birthday and we were surprised to a fun dance and napkin shower :) Which of course my toddler loved.
We will definitely be back. It's hard to find a place everyone in my family agrees on, and everyone wanted to go back
Love the food at this location the service is amazing eddy’s the owner is very kind all the bartenders are always friendly and very helpful, highly recommend this place best Greek food
Miss SCARLET was a fantastic waitress! She kindly explained the differences in the meals, and the food was amazing. Definitely will visit again!
From the moment my husband and I walked in the door, We we're greeted with fun ! The food was excellent the service was excellent!
The energy and entertainment showed us it's a happy place to work!
I love this place. The manager was not only nice. He was a professional!
This place has become my Dad and I's go-to spot! Aiden is awesome and always ensures we are well taken care of. The service is friendly and the food is always amazing. Thanks Aiden and staff!!
Went yesterday on March 7th about 630pm. Servers are great, cant ask for better service. The food is very delicious, flavorful, tastebuds were dancing all night. Soup....you have to try. I dibt know the name but its chicken with lemon. Great greek atmosphere, line dancing servers was pretty amazed. Overall, a very good experience and will cone again. Valet parking was a good touch. Keep up the good work.
My first time there, went late at night. Nice attmosphere but can use improved lighting inside, seemed dismal. Outside dining was pleasant. Cheerful staff & food was so very delicious & filling! 3 1/2 Stars !
It was my first time there and the did was delicious. I really enjoyed the 2-4-1 Sangria special... the white one was definitely my fave. I will be back soon.
Great food, Great service... but... every time I walk in I get vertigo without failure... Wondering if they pump oxygen into the dining area or something... lol not crazy been checked.
I hate how loud this place is but for the price of the food and the impeccable service that my party of 30+ just so happened to receive that night makes up for the loudness. I had a great time and I love the dressing they use on the greek salad. Amazing! I got a gyro platter and was very pleased with the size, so much that I tipped extra because a place like this deserved that. I also tried the flaming cheese and calamari, both which were fantastic. I would love to come back.
Absolutely fantastic food with good size portions, but slow service.
Aiden did a great job with getting our special lunch order right. We sat outside in the new patio area and were very comfortable.
Yummy in my tummy!!!!
Every time we go here the food is delicious!! I usually get the greek salad and the fresh bread that comes out is amazing. My honey likes the chicken gyros and baklava cheesecake. At night it's so much fun, they have live music and they dance, break plates and throw napkins everywhere!
I had the scallops for dinner and they were awesome. I definitely will be back again for them. Prices are really reasonable. Love the Lemon Drop Martinis too! Love Mondays $3 martinis
Exceptionally good food and service. I have to shake my head at the few negative reviews on this place. We've eaten at Acropolis several times and have always gotten great service as well as very delicious food. Their menu is vast and varied and we have a while to go before trying all of it, however everything we have tried in the last three visits was great! Portions are generous and well worth the prices for what you get. We'll be back and will bring friends with us to enjoy.
Really surprised how much I loved this.
The lemon chicken soup (forgive me for not trying to spell it) was amazing.
After a long day and lots of walking at Busch Gardens ended up with enough food that we all had a second meal the next day.
Looking forward to coming back here next time we come to town. One of my favorite Greek restaurants of all time.
Large portions, great service, not a fan of their gyros or potato salad but their fries are great! Would return.
This place is a little expensive, however they have some good food! We ordered the sample platter and the gyro platter. For two people there was plenty of food. The waiter was very polite and helped us through the menu a bit. I would definitely recommend trying this place.
I am not a huge lover of Greek food, however my server Scarlet was a great help in finding me something I'd like as well as being very attentive! I most definitely will be returning hopefully with her as my server!!!
We love this restaurant. The food is always delicious. It has become a favorite for our out of town guests. Dine in or takeout, it's great.
Great food and very good service
This place is really nice for Greek food. The appetizer platter was so good with the hummus and pita bread. Our server was really nice and knowledgeable about the menu. The dancing was entertaining and fun. The chicken santorini and Greek meatballs are really good and worth getting
The food was decent enough but spent over an hour there in total for two gyros on a slow Tuesday afternoon. Maybe back of house is understaffed. Either way don't expect to fit this in on your lunch break
They were having a very busy night, but still found time to give us exemplary service tonight. The food was incredible as well.
Oh my goodness, it has been a very long time since i had such delicious tasting food. The atmosphere was such a treat. Paper napkins get thrown around and someone sounds like they are breaking plates in the background. The bread that is given before the meal was very tasty because of the amazing tzatziki served with it.
Received amazing service from Brianna, great atmosphere, great food, belly dancers I'm definitely recommending my friends and family.
Food was excellent, cocktails as well. Service staff is in need of some serious training. Waitress was young, inexperienced and should not have been on the floor.
Slow service. Great food.
Great food, comfortable indoor and outdoor dining seating options, excellent service provided by Aiden and outstanding Cosmos by Andrea. I eat here at least once a week!
We had a wedding party rehearsal dinner here. Food was excellent. Definitely a great place to eat.
My burger was cooked perfectly, but was rather bland. The Greek fries were nothing more than regular fries with some feta, no seasoning. The service took forever and there were only 5 or 6 tables with people.
The absolute BEST Greek cuisine experience I've EVER had!! I'm a major foodie. They present a high end interpretation to traditional Greek dishes! From beginning to end, it was an exhilarating encounter!!
The baklava cheesecake was magic!
New bar set up is amazing!
Excellent excellent Greek food!!! Our family enjoyed it! The Greek salad, gyro meat, spanakopita, Atheno chicken was superb. The Greek wines were great too. Highly recommend this place.
Love the food and the server’s we have super good experience, super clean place, we recommend to everyone. Love it!!!
Amazing food with great service.
Fun place to go, lively atmosphere with live music. Starting at 7:00 on Friday and Saturday evenings, there are belly dancers. Plan on going back with my husband to surprise with the belly dancers. Food and service is very good. GF options available.
This was my first dinner spot after driving across country from Phoenix. I got my order of the chicken specialty called the Rhodes...DIVINE! The dinner portion was huge so I had left overs to greet me in the am. Take out was simple and easy. Highly recommend!
Nice Greek restaurant. The staff is always prompt and nice and we like music and dancing while there for dinner. Their hummus and spreads are good starters. I like moussaka and pastitsio and Greek wraps for meals. Food has always been good.
Going here is always a unique experience, From the ambiance to the waitstaff. I wouldn't say the food is 100% authentic, but delicious none the less. Their garlic bread and spread is amongst the best I've ever had. OPA!!!
I love their gyros!! The food is great and the entertainment of the staff dancing to Greek music is always a fun show to watch! The napkins on the floor was something I had never seen before. Unique!
We were a party of 7, all was top notch
Went with a friend and her kids. We did not have to wait and where seated right away by the hostess. The waitress took our order and the food came out out rather quickly. The lamb chops where cooked perfect I was told. I had the grilled eggplant salad and wished there where a few more slices of eggplant. My friend had the Greek salad and said it was lacking not sure if it was the feta. The portions where of good size. While we where there the waiters and waitresses danced around the dining room , we had the belly dancer which the 11 year old stopped eating his lamb chops to watch much to me laughing and mom unsure of. The 7 and 2 year old also loved the show and when the napkins started to fly with opa be ing yelled out they happily continued at the table doing the same thing. I would go again without a doubt and recommend this place.
Scarlett is the best, super knowledgeable & makes tasty drinks
Friendly service, food taste/quality, average portions for high prices.
Good place to eat and have some drinks!
I took a group of 15 people here. They handled the orders very well! They didn't mess up anything and were so fast. They also brought me a complimentary peice of baclava because they caught wind it was for my graduation. Food quality was amazing and they have veg options
This review has been long overdue but here it is. This first time I visited this spot I had a phenomenal experience I really appreciated the authenticity of the restaurant with both the food and ambiance. I truly enjoyed the live entertainment(music/belly dancer and opa). I also enjoyed having greek wine that paired well with my food. Now the icing on the cake was going out on the patio and having some of the best hookah in Tampa... literally... its definitely difficult to find good quality injen it comes to that with a reasonable price. Definitely wanted to return.
Now... my second visit was horrible! Nowhere the same experience as the first I was seated and was not acknowledged at all for over 30mins there were two waiters/waitresses working and they even walked past me with out offering anything not even a greeting. Now granted they had large parties so I took that into consideration seeing as though they were clearly overwhelmed. After 35mins I didn't even want anything I got exhausted and left. As I was leaving I spoke to the manager(Jason) and voiced my concern about the unacceptable and poor experience that I had. Jason kindy apologized and told me when I returned he would take care of me for the inconvenience.
On my third visit I had an even better experience than the first Jason took care of me as promised the restaurant was fully staffed and my server was phenomenal her name was Tiffany. She was very friendly, very intelligent, knowledgeable about the menu, very professional and pleasant. She even noticed that something was wrong and she resolved the issue within minutes if not seconds. I highly recommend asking for her if you visit.
Highly recommend this restaurant!
To the owner: Jason is the ideal general manager to have when it comes to customer service! Tiffany should be promoted because there are two types of servers there are those who are talented and have it and there are those who do have it Tiffany definitely has it and she is a great asset to your establishment.
Great food and ambiance to celebrate any occasion. Service was friendly and quick. Food was superb: lamb, salmon and quinoa, chicken souvlaki, gyro platter, and baklava with cinnamon ice cream. The lively place is great with music and belly dancing.
Updated review. Said food would be ready in fifteen to twenty minutes arrived at the twenty minutes mark. Waited an additional twenty minutes. Were not busy by any means.
Overall nice staff and when hot good food but ridiculous to double time estimate and deliver cold food. Stuff happens but until they get a handle on their processes it has to be a single star.
Update. They called me personally to apologize and address the concerns upping the rating to four stars due to the fast and personal response by Nicole (hope I am spelling that correctly). Like I said stuff happens.
First time at Acropolis and my husband and I had a great experience! Emily was a wonderful server and had a lovely charm to her. Will definitely be back!
Nice bar, restaurant! Service was very good! We'll be back again when we're in the area.
Great food and service. I was surprised by a birthday dance from the servers and another Greek party dance. I had falafel, tabbouleh, hummus, and pita. All very fresh tasting. Nothing better than hot fresh falafel with tahini and Greek salsa. There is also an outside porch with hookah. Highly recommended.
This seems weird. I ordered the meatballs via Uber Eats. Usually when you order something for take-away, it's lackluster compared to eating in. Not at Acropolis. They absolutely kill it. It was incredible! The packaging was great and kept everything very fresh. Not to mention that these meatballs are amazing (and also two portions). I'll be ordering from them again and again. It's a refreshing and mostly healthy change from typical Uber eats options in the area. Yum!
My 1st Greek dining experience. Fortunately I had a friend to guide me along. The food was great, and I really enjoyed everything I tried. The server could have been a little more attentive, but overall it was pretty good, and I will be going back.
Merrit was our waitress and she was such a pleasure!! We will be back again and we’ll be sure to request her!!
Food was excellent. The out side dining area sucked. Terrible tables and chairs. The whole area seemed dirty. But I give them a break with the hit from covid. Food hasn't suffered.
It's a restaurant that transforms into a bar at night. However the place is too small for the amount of people that show causing massive lines as well as wait times. Waiting for a drink can range from 5-20minutes. Nice place to go to, just doesn't have the accomodation for the amount of people.
Nice place. Excellent food and customer service. The place is huge (many tables) both in and out. So I don't think there will be any waiting for dine-in anytime. Ambience is good as well. Will definitely visit again.
Wonderful place with great food. Loved the belly dancer, musician, breaking the plates and throwing napkins. Great birthday experience. Our only suggestion is to lower the volume because it is difficult to carry on a conversation.
The meal was great I had Shrimp Mykonos. It was great and you will like it is you like a olive oil based creamy lemon wine scauce. My friends both had the saganaki (it was alright more cognac than cheese, but still good) served with pita which makes it even better. One of my friends also head the spanakopita it looked amazing. The waitress we had was also really nice and attentive. The atmosphere was good, we sat outside and surprisingly there were not that many bugs. The complementary bread is fantastic and my table just kept on getting it (which leads into my next comment). The only thing I didn't like was the wait, it took so long to get our food. Whether that be because it was 8pm, our seating, or whatever. Overall it was a nice experience, and I'd go back with friends.
Good food and fun atmosphere. Our kids enjoy going. The food portions are generous including the kids' meals. 2-4-1 sangrias all day. The staff is always friendly!
Excellent Greek food and a very diverse menu. Everything is good but if you want a chance to try different things get the mixed grill - it is enough for two to three people to share. Friendly service.
Gyro is excellent! Dahlia, our bartender is the best! I have been coming to Acropplis since they opened and have always left satisfied.
I have been to this restaurant several times and it has always been a pleasant experience. I usually order octopus and it's delicious. The prices are reasonable and the staff is very attentive. We usually sit outside for a calmer dinning experience.
Great food and a really fun atmosphere. We have been probably a dozen times to a variety of the locations and the quality of the food and service has never wavered. Highly recommended!
Great food. Appetizer platter is enough for two. Would rate 5 stars except on a Thursday night they were out of the other item we wanted, saganaki (sic).
Excellent meal and exceptional service . Our waiter Aiden was very patient despite our indecisiveness. We will definitely return soon.
The atmosphere is amazing. Very upbeat. Recommend getting a few plates and sharing. So good! Our server Vanessa was awesome.
The drink specials are great! I recommend trying the appetizer platter! Delicious and a chance to try some amazing. Greek dips. The management and staff are friendly and the atmosphere is welcoming! I will definitely be back.
Food is always good, but I am so tired of having napkins thrown at me, landing all over my food. If they quit doing that, it would be five stars, but until then I think twice about going on a Friday or Saturday.
My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at Acropolis today. I had the Greek salad with lightly breaded and pan fried Athenia fish- let me tell you it was mouth watering....and she had the gyro with a side salad which she said was the best she's ever had. Between the scrumptious food, very reasonable prices and the relaxing atmosphere, (Greek music playing for ambiance), I'll most definitely be coming back!
Decent food and not too expensive! They always do a dance and smash a bunch of plates, which was pretty exciting but seemed wasteful haha
You can't go wrong with Acropolis! The gyro platter is delicious and very large. Sometimes my boyfriend and I share a plate. My favorite dish from here is the avgolemono soup (lemon and rice soup). You'll either love it or hate it (some people think it's too lemony), but definitely worth a try. I love this place.
Great food n service! So much better then my last visit! Thank you!
The hostess wad MIA for a little longer than was acceptable in my opinion. However, when we did eventually get seated, the rest of lunch was great. Try the Greek burger! So good! Always love Acrop!
The location on Kennedy is better, but overall it was good. Service wasn't great on the patio, the food was on point. The manager is great she recognized service wasn't great and she made it right . I do recommend based on her.
Prices are affordable and the food is delicious with big portions. A very nice cultural experience with great staff. *****
I absolutely love this restaurant. The food is amazing and the employees are so nice and patient with me, (I forget my orders often.) All in all, this place is absolutely wonderful.
Sophia!!! Was absolutely amazing. Our food was stuck in the kitchen but she is stuck in our hearts. We loved her presence so very much.
Lina was great! Everything was amazing!
Me and my boyfriend had a wonderful time there. I had just gotten out of the hospital. We went there for lunch. The music was good the food was good the price was good. I will go there again when we can. Also the service is fantastic
Acropolis is consistently good for a casual lunch or laid-back dinner. The Greek salad I got had a generous helping of toppings on it, so it was definitely a great value. The server was also very attentive and eager to give suggestions!
Generally always enjoy eating here. Was too cold to sit outside and for Tuesday night the restaurant was pretty empty. Great atmosphere and great Greek food.
Wonderful, fun place to eat! The food is delicious! I was surprised at the tiny kids' meal shish-ka-bob portions when they are so generous with everything else. The kids' pasta and kids' wrap were more than enough.
Incredible food and service. Our new go to place for our greek fix! We would highly recommend this to anyone wanting something different than the normal food experience.
Their Acropolis salad is magnificent! The gyros were great! So happy we keep going here 🥰 …
A pretty good Greek food location. They have all the foods you would expect, but I was less than impressed with the actual taste and flavors (personal preference). Service was also a bit slower than I expect for the area, but it tends to vary based on crowds and days. On busy days, there's lots of activities, such as the classic "Opa!" where they throw around napkins, so kids typically enjoy that. Parking is adequate in this plaza, but can fill up quick for the area on busy evenings or weekends. Not a bad place if you're in the mood for it.
I think since I got there 50 minutes before closing I was expecting 3 or 4 start service or food. Boy was I sooo EXTRA wrong! The food was amazingly fresh and Sydney my server was freaking FANTASTIC!! I even gave her new name lol. Also Jason the manager was extremely nice (and easy on the eyes 😍).
I actually passed an Acropolis to get to this location to meet a friend and I will be returning to THIS location for future meals. Everyone has such great vibes!!
Oh I had the roasted red pepper humus and Greek salad. My plan was to eat half of the salad and take the other half for lunch, but it couldn't escape my fork!!!
I've been to this Acropolis location about 5 times, and I really liked our servers every time.
They clearly were putting in extra effort to please us, with our special requests, additions and whatnot.
The food is high quality each time. You get what you pay for at Acropolis.
Acropolis is perfect for family outings, graduations (close to USF), Mother's Day and Father's Day, and just about any other special occasion.
Always a favorite of mine. Large portions of excellent food. Come here if you want to try something delicious that you may not see on the average menu.
Food is great, happy they brought back the roasted vegetable salad!
They no longer have the bread with yogurt because of the supplier closing down because of COVID.
Always great food. Had a mixup in the kitchen that had us waiting there quite some time but everything worked out awesome in the end. Never had a bad experience here
