Parthenonas in Sheffield

A good place to go to eat. Friendly atmosphere, well prepared meals. I recommend the meatballs in particular.

Lovely family run business with authentic greek food

Lovely place. Great food and fantastic value.

Right from the moment we stepped inside it felt like being on holiday, friendly owners came to greet us and there was a buzzing and welcoming family feel about the place. We shared lots of different starters and they were all amazing, authentic and delicious. The owners really looked after us and taught us a few Greek words upon request, we had a delightful time and the price was very reasonable. We will definitely visit again! Loved it!

Lovely place. Great food and fantastic value.

1st time here and we will be returning very soon. The food here is excellent, freshly cooked. Would recommend the saganaki starter and the dolmades (stuffed vine leaves), the stifado and kleftico are delicious served with fresh vegetables. The owner is friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended.

My husband and I had a meal here for my 60th birthday last night. Stepping inside was like being in a taverna in Greece. The walls are painted blue and white with pictures dotted around. We were greeted by a gentleman whom I can only assume is the owner, who couldn't be more friendly. He said we could sit wherever we wanted, the tables and chairs were dark wood, and the tablecloths were blue and white too. When he took your order, he didn't write anything down, just memorised it and then told the one person in the kitchen doing all of the cooking, we assumed was his wife. We had 3 courses and it was absolute perfection all round. The owner was funny, he had a great rapport with the customers, and nothing was too much trouble for him. He never rushed you at all. Even though there was only one lady cooking, she was just incredible and the food was outstanding. Even the bill at the end was handwritten. Proper old school. Excellent service, fantastic food and great value for money. Will definitely be going back again.

We bought a voucher on Groupon for 4 people. We booked the night before, but there were plenty of tables if we hadn’t (midweek, not sure about weekends) We parked on the street behind and there were plenty of spaces, with just a minutes walk. We all enjoyed our starter and main. The baklava for dessert was tough and not fresh, so let the meal down. The Mythos was also not cold. The staff were attentive and friendly. We would eat here again, but not have the dessert

I descovered this place via groupon and what a hidden gem lovely staff and the food is amazing the person in the kitchen is a very good cook I ordered fish i got a full fish not a fillet a nice full very tasty moist fish if you enjoy good authentic tasty food try this place i will definitely go again

Nice Greek food and makes you feel like you were in Greece for real! Will come again.

This is by far the best Greek Restaurant I visit regular in Sheffield. The food and value is second to none brilliant family run restaurant. 👍👍👍. JC.

We went there last night for the 1st time in over 6 years. We got the warm welcome from the owner which is always nice. The menu has loads of Greek classics & there is the special board as well plus they serve Mythos. We all had starters which were lovely I would recommend the mussels spot on. The main meals were such great value & really tasty. It wouldn't be a Greek restaurant without the shot of Ouzo at the end of the evening. It's such a lovely family run restaurant with great staff & the food prices are very reasonable with starters around a fiver & a few of the party had the chicken or pork gyros which is only £9 & big portion. Will be going again & spreading the word about the restaurant.

What a gem of a place! If you want authentic Greek food you must come here!

Cracking Greek restaurant. The food is delicious and so well priced. Even through the week it can be very busy. Excellent staff with a great relaxed atmosphere. We go every time we visit Sheffield! Fabulous, thank you for another great evening (or two)!

Very family friendly staff as we had a small baby and pram. Food was great. ( Well I loved it anyway and asked for take away containers cos I wasn’t letting them put the rest in the bin.🤣🤣)

We haven't been here for about 4 yrs since covid but allways enjoyed our meal and service from manager and staff, we decided to start going again so we booked with Groupon as we allways did got to the restaurant manager was on his own told us to sit at a table, brought us some water but was a while before he took our order, we ordered a bottle of wine our usual starter and a chicken dish for mains, candle on table but was never lit for us, when starter came it was smaller than I remembered and wasn't as nice quite dry and lettuce was a little yellow not very fresh, we then had our chicken in a white wine sauce, the sauce was really nice but parts of chicken a bit tough my husband got a very small bone in his, we got 2 roast potatoes which was very rubbery I left one, broccolli and carrotts was a little hard for our liking, the manager didn't seem as sociable like I remember he used to be. We noticed when people had asked for there bill an paid they got a tot of ouzo which is what we used to get before when we came, but this time when we asked for our bill we didn't get one, I asked the reason why he said the other people's meals was more expensive to what ours were which I was totally shocked with his answer unbelievable, i simply walked out will not go again. We did notice aswell the wall behind us had a corniche all around and was very dirty and dusty

Brilliant service brilliant food Excellent 👍👍

Visited this evening as a group of 6. We hadnt booked in advance but was accommodated for straight away. I felt like I was back in Greece the moment we walked through the door! The gentleman who served us was so friendly and helpful. There was a lot to choose from on the menu and the food was delicious 😋

Love this place. A proper taste of Greece and very authentic food. I've had the Kleftiko twice now and it's the best lamb you'll eat, the meat just falls off the bone. The owner works tirelessly taking orders, serving food and settling bills , on his own, so there are times he's busy and there's a wait for drinks etc but it's well worth the wait.

We had a family birthday there last night. It was our second visit, we like Greek food & the people (here is no exception). This food was exceptionally tasty, enjoyable & very good value for money. I would recommend Partanonas to any who like Greek style food.

Had such a lovely experience here. Food was all obviously fresh and delicious - we tried fish, chicken, pork, veg and potato based dishes and all were absolutely delicious. The portions are generous, the prices are incredibly reasonable and the gentleman who served us was so nice. He finished our meal with a complimentary shot of ouzo which was so lovely. Really recommend, this is authentic Greek food cooked with love and served with it too

Great value and amazing food, staff excellent

Food was really nice (we had a variety of dips, salads and pittas) service is good and the price is very reasonable

Beautiful food and great service, the Starters delicious and plentiful. Tzatziki was really nice as was the Sovlaki and Saganaki.

A misery starter served by a man who was so indifferent. Main course of Kleftico extremely poor compared to the many I have enjoyed in other more passionate Greek Restaurants. My advice is eat elsewhere.

Been coming here for many years, we are treat like family when we go. Food is amazing, served by the friendly owner. He always welcomes us with a smile and excellent service. Thank you so much for such a lovely evening topped off with celebratory complimentary cake., which was a great surprise to us all.

A trully traditional greek restaurant, great food, great prices, grand location, and makes you think you're on a greek island on holiday.

A hidden gem for sure. Just had the most delicious authentic Greek food, everything was so tasty. Would 100% recommend to anyone who’s wanting Greek food in Sheffield. Lovely service and very reasonably priced!

Maria & Niko amazing hosts! Always very friendly and happy to help you to choose the ample choice of Greek mezedes and main dishes available on menu. The specials also worth while to try on your next visit. The Mythos Hellenic lager goes down very well . The wine is very good and especially the complimentary ouzo too! It is very good value for money. I definitely reccomended to visit Parthenonas.

Excellent authentic Greek experience. Large and varied menu. Fantastic team who look after you very well. Good for takeaway and eat in. Options for gluten free are fab.

Good authentic food service good place could do with a little refurb though..

Been coming here for a few years now, doesn't look much from the outside but food was always really good. Unfortunately last two times haven't been great. Starter wasn't the size it normally is, but the real issue was the main. Usually have kleftiko which is a lamb shank cooked in pastry it literally falls of the bone. However this time I got overcooked lumps if lamb which tasted like they had been warmed up, the broccoli was cold. Normally the place is buzzing and lively, this time it was dead. It was a real shame.

I've been going here for over 15years and it's still excellent 👌

We come here mostly as a couple, but also with friends and family and once as a large group. The owners are friendly and offer a great dining experience. A lovely selection of food is available from the extensive menu, lamb, steak, pork, beef, chicken, fish, veggie. Great starters and ouzo. Coffee is good too.

Hate to leave such a bad review but it doesn't warrant anything higher. Restaurant was dead, yet it took ages for food. Could hear the microwave pinging. Starters were 100% microwaved and soggy. They were either bland or the saltiest thing imaginable. Also ordered haloumi and got feta. No spinach in the spanakopita. Ordered gyros for the main, came de-constructed (which isn't too bad) The pork was like bacon lardons and very salty. I've seen loads of reviews saying how this place is good, I'm sorry but you people have never had quality Greek food... Thankfully we had a coupon which meant we didn't spend much. Won't be returning again, which is a shame cause the guy who served us was nice and polite.

Our favourite Greek restaurant. Food is lovely. The owners are very friendly and there is no rush to get you out

Best Greek food I've eaten outside of Greece and unbelievably good value. Love it!

Really enjoyed our visit. Food service and atmosphere were all good.

Nice food at a very reasonable price.

Lovely Greek food with a very attentive owner. I would recommend here as reasonably priced too x

Our favourite Greek restaurant the food is always delicious and the service is on point everytime we go, will definitely be visiting again very soon.

Our favourite Greek restaurant food as always delicious will be back again soon

We both very much enjoyed our meal here, it was great value and everything tasted amazing! Just not quite sure on the plastic table cloths

Would highly recommend for a visit. Staff are so friendly and helpful. The owner made us feel so welcome. Food amazing. A little bit of Greece x

Fantastic service Food delicious Good value for money ,Brilliant atmosphere and spotlessly clean

Always lovely food here and great value!

We had a Groupon offer, so I'm not sure if that affected our experience. The starters were good and good portions. However, the mains were pitiful, and we were still hungry, so we had to order desserts. We all x 4 ordered lamb shank which didn't come on the bone it was 4 or 5 cubes of meat in a sauce accompanied by 2 small roast potatoes and 3 rings of carrot and 1 piece of broccoli which I thought was a very terribly small portion. The owner or head waiter was very friendly and atmosphere. Deserts were of normal portion too unfortunately just the main course!!

Good atmosphere with the owners being Greek. Food is largely authentic however smaller details like the thick creamy bechamel lacking on the pastitsio. It was largely cheese or just a really thin layer on top meaning it tasted mostly of the tomatoes. Food prices are pretty high but not awful. With the price per item being around 8-12 per dish average. Good quality wine choice. Overall a decent if not slightly pricey place with good room for improvement.

The restaurant smells bad, the waiter was not respectful, the food was not to my liking and the portions were small. The quality is not that of a restaurant and the pictures are not what they look like on the internet.

Love it here. Go regularly. Never had a bad meal. Fabulous 👌 well worth a visit. Just like being in Greece.

Hi, i am writing this review to make people and customers aware of the awful service i got here, thee son of the owner comes down and tells me to get out in a horrible way and even grabs me, the food was soggy and bland 1/5 wouldnt go here.

Amazing again! Good food and service . I can’t believe I’m saying this but the food has got even better! We love this place and would recommend to anyone wanting the best Greek food. We will definitely be back ❤️

It's simply THE best Greek food I have ever tasted. Including that in Greece. The atmosphere is wonderful, too. It feels very warm and welcoming. Like being in someone's home. Only downside is that it can be a little slow service wise. Usually, because they are so busy/ perhaps it was the staff at the time.

Well worth a visit. They used to do vouchers that reduce the price of your meal the next time you visit.

First visit- great veggie food, lovely owner, very funny, very kind! We will be back. Partner had chicken- said it was very good

Nice welcome from friendly owner. Quaint place, reminiscent of a traditional Greek taverna. Food was great, cooked perfectly and portions were good, if not massive. Meal would have cost £32 with drinks, so reasonable prices.

The food here is so fresh and tasty. Really nice food. We went pretty late on so just another group with us. We couldn't really get the real ambience of the restaurant. With it being a quaint size then I can imagine the atmosphere being nice and romantic with wonderful Greek music playing in the background. The prices are very reasonable and the portions generous in my opinion. The owners are very friendly. The husband is very kind and approachable. I highly recommend this restaurant, especially if you enjoy trading Greek food and run by Grecians. I don't think you will be disappointed if you visit for a lovely romantic evening meal.

Enjoyed another very nice meal again here tonight. Nicely presented and the hot food was hot not lukewarm. Starters and mains very tasty. In the present financial climate very reasonably priced. No wonder it is so busy We will be back thank you.

Went with my wife for evening meal. Well cooked food but presentation left a little to be desired. Very reasonable pricing.

I really like it here, the food is always good and the staff are friendly. The price is even better, if you call in advance and mention the meal deal on the phone, you essentially get 3 courses + tea/coffee + a shot of ouzo for £12. Would defo recommend

Absolutely amazing food and great prices. A small restaurant but well worth the visit.

Been going here for a while now & never been disappointed. Excellent value for money, food is freshly cooked, plentiful & delicious. Lovely friendly atmosphere too.

Amazing food. The manager is a superb host. Would highly recommend.

Food OK, not as good as you would get on a Greek island as the ingredients are different

We've been in this restaurant a few years ago and we liked the food there. We had a voucher from Groupon web page for which we paid £20. This time we ordered as starters Saganaki and Piperia Kokini - both yummy. As main we ordered Chicken Parthenonas (which was nice) and Kotopoulo Chilopites (was OK but only a few pieces of chicken) and extra patates fournou - which was a bit disappointment as they been only baked and sprinkled with dried herbs and not like described with lemon, oregano and garlic. We had also Greek beer (Mythos) and sparkling water; for additional potatoes, beer and water we paid £9.60. We liked the food despite not everything was perfect and we will come again.

The owner is such a wonderful man! If you’re looking for a quiet cozy dinner just like the ones your greek grandma makes, this is the place! It’s nothing extraordinary but definitely worth the visit!

Another excellent meal. Been coming for years and the quality and friendliness of the owner never fails to please. Food us always piping hot and freshly cooked, highly recommended.

Amazing food and super friendly staff !

Been going here years - authentic Greek. Tried a few others locally but they don’t compare. Visited Greece a few times and the food is definitely as good. The service is excellent!

There's a small town somewhere in Greece with a hole where this place has been teleported from. It is so authentic that you forget you're in Sheffield. Thoroughly enjoyed everything about it as the food was delicious. 1 starter between us, 2 mains, a large Mythos and a coke for £32 was also an absolute bargin.

Wonderful authentic and reasonably priced Greek food with great vegetarian options. My partner is Greek herself and she was also very impressed 🇬🇷

Went on a quiet Sunday eve and were last people in the restaurant so only fair to leave a review. Food was really very good. Excellent portions (I'm a growing boy) and well priced (was about £20pp with a big beer and a lot of food). Good service. People complaining about the décor are no doubt the same people who would complain about it being more expensive if the owner spent a fortune on renovating it; it's clean and cosy. Have only been to the Greedy Greek in Sheffield to compare (also very good) but I would say this is a bit less 'casual-dining' than that.

Superb food and service all at very reasonable prices . Will definitely be back very soon . Thanks

Booked for 8.30 but still waiting at 9.00pm with no chance of a table so went elsewhere. They have a Wowcher offer on Nd had grossly overbooked.

Very tasty food, great choice of food in the menu. Entrees are also amazing, definitely recommended!

I found this restaurant as was really fancying Greek, this could not have been more Greek, the guy running it/owner is just amazing and makes you feel so welcome. He was rushed off his feet but could not have been more friendly and helpful, when we wanted to give a tip he refused saying he run it alone - how often would you get anything like that!!! Who turns a tip down? My pet hate os people expecting tips, and for this reason alone we will be back. The food, oh it was delicious! There is so much choice on the menu are very reasonable prices, the three of us all enjoyed our meal and can’t wait to return. The portions were big, the food good quality, the atmosphere very Greek and the prices very reasonable. I think this is going to be a regular place we visit from now on. Thank you

Always lovely food. Nicos always makes you feel welcome. It was a really busy evening which was lovely to see.

The food was bland and underseasoned, and the restaurant looked shabby. Wouldn't visit again.

Great place. Food is delicious. Would definately recommend.

This place is FANTASTIC!!! The food is fabulous. Absolutely gorgeous. The atmosphere is so relaxed. We visited here for my sister's birthday and they made her feel so special. We had children with us and they were brilliant with them. I can't recommend this place enough. It really is perfect.

Table booked here with my partner and I, we were MASSIVELY impressed!! The food and service were exceptional. Will definitely be returning… If you like Greek food, I would highly recommend.

Just had a fantastic meal at Parthenonas. It was a Wowcher Christmas present from my sister. We've never been before, but will certainly be returning. My partner had the meatballs to start, which was a meal in itself, and I had the sausage and halloumi, both of which were delicious. I had kleftiko for my main course, which was as good as any I've had in Greece and my partner had pastitsio, which was a little underflavoured for my tastes, but she loved it. Service was laid back and the atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. Don't go if you are in a hurry, but take your time and just enjoy it.

Lovely and friendly staff! Small place but feels so welcoming! Rosé wine and pork & chicken gyros was so so tasty. Would highly recommend and will definitely be visiting again soon! Thank you for a lovely meal! 🥰

Saw an advert for this, offering a three course meal, coffee & a shot of Ouzo for £12, so had to give it a try. We didn't book & walked into an almost empty restaurant but within half an hour, it was full. There was only one guy (the owner?) doing everything outside of the kitchen & although he was very laid back, he did a good job & kept everyone happy. The food was good & we would definitely return.

Excellent value for money and great food. Feels like you're in Greece.

Welcome was wonderful and food was great, especially loukaniko and halloumi. Oddly the kleftiko wasn't as good as I expected it

Excellent value for money especially when using a Wowcher voucher. Food always freshly cooked and hot no pre packed stuff like you get in pubs .

Just an overall great experience. Food was great, really authentic. The staff were friendly. And in my opinion I felt it was very good value for money.

Wow! My husband and I went to Parthenonas last night and I can't say enough good things about the place. The owner was lovely, the music in the background added to the mood wonderfully, and the food was out of this world. Everything was so beautifully prepared, presented and cooked, and it tasted sooooooo good! From the very first mouthful of food to the shot of Ouzo at the end, this meal delivered on every level. We will definitely be back, thank you so much to everyone at Parthenonas for a perfect 'date' night.

Booked at lunchtime for the same evening. Ate at 18:30, very quiet. Red wine from Crete was very acceptable. Ordered from specials (available Sun to Thurs) Our starters were Keftadakia (meat balls in sauce) and Greek sausage with baked feta (forgotten name). Both very tasty. Mains were Chicken souvlaki (mixed on the menu but asked for no pork) and Kleftiko. Lovely roast spuds and excellent fries!. Ice cream to follow (choc & vanilla), tea/coffee, and a shot of ouzo. £36.50 for the two of us. Will be back soon...

Food was absolutely delicious and large portions. I thought my starter was a main dish. Really authentic flavours and the staff are welcoming and friendly. Will definitely be returning.

Fantastic food, relaxed atmosphere, great prices. Thank you for another wonderful evening

Lovely host, lovely food and lovely value. My mum recommended this restaurant after visiting it previously. Lovely and intimate setting with good food wait times. The food came out delicious and well we presented. Felt very well looked after by the host, would definitely recommend

Excellent food a right price. Always enjoy visiting and atmosphere v good.

Very welcoming staff. Tasty food. The chicken was very well cooked. Our daughter and her partner went for more traditional food that was excellent.

Great food, great service and great prices Thanks for the birthday song and cake !!

Top notch food for very reasonable prices at a hospitable family business. We'll definitely be back! The lamb chops main and kalamari starter were standouts for us.

Second visit in a few weeks and we were just as pleased as last time. The food,service, atmosphere and value for money cannot be beaten.
