This small greek restaurant is located in Ballantyne, tucked away in a business park. Though quaint, it has an extensive menu of greek favorites including kid friendly options.
I ordered the souvlaki chicken pita with french fries. This pita comes with lettice, tomato, tzadziki sauce and onion as standard ( I had mine without onions). My husband ordered the souvlaki chicken platter that came with french fries, a greek salad and a small order of tzadziki with pita chips on the side.
The service was standard with the food arriving within about 10 minutes. Our water was served in take out cups which annoyed me some as we were eating in but the waitress made sure to refill them frequently so it was ok.
My pita was certainly full with a great flavor on the chicken, if a little salty. The lettice was a little sparse but on the whole not bad. The french fries were hot, straight from the fryer which I liked but lacked the crunchiness of perfectly cooked ones. I think they could have done with a few more seconds in the fryer.
My husband's platter was pleasing to the eye, though his fries were in the same condition as mine. The dressing came already poured on the salad which was a bit of a shame as there was way too much and he mentioned it was quite salty.
Overall, the Akropolis Cafe is not a bad restaurant but if it is this kind of food you are craving, there are better alternatives.
I give this restaurant 3 out of 5 stars.
