Tasty Greek Souvlaki in Reading

The lamb souvlaki wrap was tasteless and basically chips and tomato wrapped in pitta with 3 tiny pieces of lamb in the bottom which you can't even see in the photo. Feel like you cheaped out and I won't be coming here again

Food was good and so was the service.

Lovely place! Great staff and food.

Finally something that was missing from our Reading!!! Grill a la Greece!! Well done, good start! Good luck!

Amazing food and service. Highly recommended

This is an atmospheric place with very very tasty food. We were passing through this city and stopped for a late dinner. Entering the restaurant from the cold street, we were immediately enveloped in the warmth of sunny Greece and fed us delicious, freshly prepared food. We will definitely come back here again. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant

Decent food and good portions, but the prices are beyond human comprehension 😂 sorry but it has to be said. The price of 10 wraps is my annual one way flight to Greece.

Fantastic restaurant!! Comprehensive menu with lots of vegetarian options. We had stuffed vine leaves to start (best we've ever tasted) and halloumi souvlaki .We finished with baklava. The food is delicious, the service is efficient and friendly and it is well priced.

Really great service. Very attentive and informative staff. We started with the platter to share and chicken grill platter. It was our birthday weekend and we were treated to a beautiful chocolate Ferrero roche cake .

Yummy food with lovely people. Highly recommended

Lovely atmosphere and super friendly service by Greek waitresses :) Food was decent especially the special of the day lamb.and also a homemade tzatziki for starter with pitta bread . Good luck for the prospering business 🌼

Excellent place with a great vibe Went on a Friday and lots of birthday parties as was ours. Food was perfect and service was top notch with a smile Definitely going back again Ps we never mentioned one of our party had a birthday after we paid, and they brought us a Ferrero Roche birthday cake with a candle. A very nice touch. High recommend this restaurant.

Amazing greek food and very friendly staff

We came here on a Saturday afternoon for a late lunch. I ordered the mixed meat pitta and my partner Philadelphia souvlaki. We both had a Mythos beer. Food was delicious as good as in Greece. Very service I would be happy to come back.

Awful delivery, couldn’t explain where he was and wouldn’t put the postcode on Google, had to go get the driver to the bottom of the road and he wouldn’t find the house

Perfect food rich portions this spot is like in grecce copliments for the chef 🧑‍🍳 The service is friendly and helpful thank you 🙏

Ordered a mix grill platter from here. Ended up getting raw chicken in the mix. Had to get rid of the rest. Called them up and they said they would do a replacement, but after just having raw chicken in my mouth I was put off completely. Called them a week later and asked if they were willing to honour the grill platter but as we were put off it from last time if we cpuld have something else instead. They said yes and made thr order. When I got there they talked about how easy raw meat can end up there due to the spinning meat. Then they charged me full price for the meal going back on what they said. So if you want food poisoning or to be price gouged go here.

my visit was nothing more than a disappointing! Order gyros on the plate and meet was green was simply leftover for 2-3 days, asked the lady to take it back coz meat not fresh at all, what she said was Is fresh from today😭! I just laughed at that point coz I know the industry very well! Service very slow! Maybe is right what people say about this place they don’t care and only washing money here from kanabis farms!!

We had chicken souvlaki and gyro and they were excellent.

Food's amazing, customer service too! A lil advice- please add some music outside, too, that would be lovely indeed!

Nice Greek food experience. Well done guys 👍.

This is a very casual and friendly place to stop in for a delicious Greek quick meal. They have coffee too, but more importantly Greek beer (both Fix and Alpha, as well as Mythos). Been here twice, and each time it was staffed by ladies who are excellent at running the place (including the grill). Highly recommended in Reading. Pork souvlaki sticks alone are worth a visit.

Great place for takeout/sit-down food

First visit, and most certainly will not be the last! Lovely food, friendly staff. 5/5 hands down .

It is upsetting that a restaurant can’t make a Caesar salad of at least supermarket quality.Lettuce was iceberg not romain,no croutons,but pieces of soft bread. No Parmesan, just melted cheddar or eidam. The worst was the dressing from a bottle.

Excellent as always, the rack of lamb special was amazing and the staff were lovely.

Great service and food!!! Authentic Greek food and atmosphere!!!

Accidentally discovered this wonderful place, delicious food, incredibly friendly staff and an authentic Greek feel to the whole place. Loved it.

Food was ok but once again the driver did not read the delivery instructions or follow the postcode. JustEat drivers always call from a different street asking us to come and find them!

My partner and i came here yesterday afternoon for a meal and i can say we definitely weren’t disappointed. It is so hard these days in the uk to find a proper saganaki but they absolutely nailed it! Saganaki was gorgeous and as was the pork gyros!! Felt exactly like we were in greece again. To top it off the service was amazing! Thank you very much Athina , would recommend and absolutely return! 😊

Good gyros at a reasonable price

Cheap and cheerful, eat and run place, excellent food.

I recently visited this restaurant with my colleagues. We returned to our hotel late after a long day of meetings and went looking for a place to have dinner. Tasty Greek Souvlaki was one of the few open restaurants. Tasty food, good service. It's a warm family-run business. Do visit if you find yourself in Reading.

The “Greek Souvlaki” in Reading opened during COVID - almost 4 years ago. It has since gained the hearts of the locals - included myself - of Reading; not just the native Greeks but British as well. The place is always packed and without exaggerating, you’d find it hard to get yourself a seat without booking. All the food is home made and is authentic: eg feta cheese pita souvlaki, Halloumi pita souvlaki, gyros, Greek salad, fried saganaki and the traditional desert like baklava pastry and kantaifi. Tonight, I had the Vegetable pita souvlaki, wrapped in fries and delicious freshly baked pita bread. The spit bread is made from chunks of oregano with nice subtle Greek seasonings. It is then cooked until browned and crisp on the outside giving the vegetables a wonderful crispy flavour. You can get a nice large serving of fresh salad and tzatziki. I accompanied my meal with a nice grey coffee and a traditional Greek chocolate almond bar. I would highly recommend the Greek Souvlaki restaurant. It is not just authentic, but it is welcoming and warmth. The cook and the staff alike put their heart and soul to it. They all have what we call “Meraki.” Costas.

Come here most Tuesdays the staff are so friendly and it’s like being in Greece beautiful restaurant and the best food and cappuccino in Reading good choice of bottle beers and love the chocolate biscuit bars

Very good food, nice service… a bit “windy” but really good spot for a quick dinner or lunch

This was my first visit and I'll definitely be back. I had the pita lamb souvlaki. The lamb was cooked beautifully and nicely seasoned. The whipped cream and custard of the Ekmek Katifi was lovely and light. The service was excellent too.

We have been here a few times and find this place really good value for money. The food is great and the staff always pleasant. Sitting outdoors is not ideal as it is right by a street where noisy buses and other vehicles constantly pass. But inside is fine.

Friendly service, good food and good prices for the enormous portions

Very delicious food and lovely staff. I and my wife enjoyed the food. We were there on Tuesday lunch and were served by Athina who was very attentive. Highly recommend.

Food is always delicious, never had a bad time here! Service is warm and friendly, will always recommend, Tzatziki is to die for.

The food was amazing, thanks to the incredible chef! Every dish was full of flavor, with great attention to detail. You can tell the chef truly knows his craft!

A good Greek alternative in Reading

the best food in town and a pleasant environment, everything is clean, I really like everything, I love the place from every point of view

Always fresh, quick and tasty food, the friendly staff always make it special when I ask to customise my order. Highly recommended. Thank you ☺️

the best place in Reding with a Greek specialty, the food is so good that you lick your fingers

The best souvlaki I’ve ever had! Perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The chef truly knows what they’re doing. Highly recommend!

This little place deserves all the positive reviews. I was a bit concerned, as I'd tried to book via email and had no confirmation - and it was a Friday evening. Magically, there was a table for two free. Staff are excellent: friendly and efficient. The recommendation to order courgette balls was very well placed; they were delicious. Dolmades and halloumi were very fresh; mains of lamb souvlaki for me and chicken for the husband were superb - though it was a bit surprising to have salad cream with my husband's meal. That's something that should be eradicated from the world. The other picky point is that charging 50p for a weeny pot of chilli sauce is not great PR - even Pizza Express would offer that for the table. I'd have liked to see some Greek wines on the list. But overall, it's 5 stars from us. I don't know why its labelled ££££ on TripAdvisor, by the way, as it definitely isn't. It was really great value. Loved it.

Definitely my favourite place, just like the name of the restaurant, it was soooo tasty, so good, well seasoned, the Greek coffee was delicious, friendly staffs and atmosphere. 💛

Excellent dishes, rich portions, spotlessly clean space, polite staff, reasonable prices. I highly recommend it.

If you're on the fence, my simple recommendation is: give it a try. But here’s a little more detail: • Service: The staff is consistently warm and welcoming. If you’re uncertain about what to order, they’re always ready to offer helpful suggestions based on your preferences. • Menu: Between my partner and I, we’ve sampled most of the menu, and everything has been excellent. Each dish is delicious, incredibly fresh, and bursting with authentic flavors. • Atmosphere: It’s a perfect spot for a laid-back lunch or dinner. The cozy interior has a way of transporting you, making it feel like you’ve stepped into a little corner of Greece. • Price: For the quality and portion sizes, the prices are fantastic. Whether you’re after a quick bite or a full meal, I highly recommend their salads or gyros for a satisfying lunch. This has quickly become one of our favorite go-to spots. A special thanks to the wonderful staff for the complimentary espresso!

WOW WOW WOW! I can assure you that this amazing place is a family favourite. This place is perfect for a Greek lunch or dinner, covering all sorts of dishes. The souvlaki is amazing and to die for! The prices aren’t bad as well! The staff are always friendly and they have free lollipops for the little ones! Overall this is an amazing place that I would hope everyone can experience. If you ever thinking about coming to this place, do it! You won’t regret it.

Having lived in Greece for almost a decade, this place does it right. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic food and fantastic service. Will be coming here again and again.

Very good quality meat grilled to perfection and generous portions too. The place is clean and staff is great. Been there a few time and will definitely keep coming back.

Got the mixed souvlaki, chicken and pork. Huge portion, I couldn't eat it all! Tasted great!

This shawarma is delicious and sweet. I loved it alone. It is enough for 2 of our shawarmas 👍🤝

Popped in for a quick light lunch with my bestie friend. She had souvlaki and I had chicken gyro. It was lovely and freshly made. Great service

I saw a police car pull up just as I was looking from across the road and thought that place must be good value. My assumption proved correct and the three meat Souvlaki was tasty.

Indulge in a slice of the Mediterranean right here in Reading. Highly recommended for those craving fresh and flavorful cuisine.

Had a lovely time here. Friendly, attentive staff who worked seamlessly to make our experience enjoyable. Food was lovely and we had a great time start to finish. A lovely, friendly restaurant worthy of a visit!

So delicious ! We took mix grill platter for 2, portion was really big. We needed take rest food to home. Definitely see You next time

Food is authentic and the tastiest in Reading...staff are beautiful the chef is incredible love it here xx

ok taste and portions, Alpha is great

Pricing is spot on, quality is excellent. Staff great and very clean! More options for soft drink would be favourable.

Got to say that was amazing , we were staying up from south wales so had a look on just eat seen some silly reviews about portion size etc , it was fantastic on time nice and fresh and now completely stuffed , couldn’t recommend enough 10/5 stars

We loved eating at Tasty Greek Souvlaki, where we felt you got great value for money and super service. The gyros were excellent with substantial portions and the desserts were enjoyed by the whole party (I particularly liked the Ferrero cake). Thanks for a lovely meal!

Delicious, filling souvlaki, and can recommend the lamb kebabs as well. I have popped by for takeaway a couple times and the service has been very quick.

Such a friendly family run small business with exceptionally good food. So good we go every Wednesday evening, everyone there is so welcoming and accommodating. Thanks guys!

Yummy, reasonably priced, traditional Greek food. Definitely go for a dessert, they are all yummy

Beautiful food! Excellent service and value 😁

Lovely food and ice cold Keo on a sunny day.

Staff were welcoming and friendly, food was delicious, recommended the mixed grill tray.

Genuinely can’t fault it! The meat is fantastic every single meat skewer is a fair size, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. Nice bread and great sauce! 10/10 from someone who knows his food :)

More of a late night or hungover kind of food not Been there in person and they have a really nice place They really have increased the prices over the years The mix grill used to be £20 in 2022 now it's £35

Great Souvlaki at affordable price!

Tasted ok, but arrived cold so needed to go in the oven to be heated up for 10 minutes which meant that it was quite disappointing as everything ended up being warm - salad and sauce included

I appreciate you are not a vegan/vegetarian friendly place, and this is absolutely fine. From a customer perspective, I'd suggest to remove some of the veg options from the menu. I had a pita falafel in the past that was pretty much an empty pita with one little piece of falafel and 2 chips. It was almost the same price as a succulent chicken pita that my friend ordered. Yesterday I had dinner with a friend, we both decided to go for a salad. Her chicken Caesar salad was amazing, with pieces of pita bread in it. I was served a green salad, which was a little nest of iceberg with 2 (yes, 2) olives, 2 slices of cucumber and 4 pieces of tomatoes, definitely NOT worth the price. Why not offering the same quality across the menu, or just realistically remove veg options that can easily put customers off. Thanks.

Great food and great service. Never disappoints authentic gyros

we came here on a saturday evening and were seated very quickly by the friendly staff. i ordered the halloumi platter and my partner ordered the mixed kebab platter and it was genuinely some of the most delicious food we’ve had in a long time. everything was super fresh and the flavours were perfectly crafted together. honestly a 10/10 experience and we will definitely be returning and recommending to all of our friends and family. very reasonably priced too and very good portions.

Delicious authentic food and very helpful staff.

1st visit fantastic service very attentive, portions were huge, all freshly cooked. Would highly recommend and will definitely return

We popped in before a show in Reading and were very glad. We liked the restuarant and the food was all excellent. We had the mixed grill for two and there was a huge variety of food included. Very good.

Great food served quickly. Get there before 12:30 for good table

Good and genuine food. They serve coffe as well and nice baklava. The hallumi wrap is delicious

Simply, a taste of Greece in Reading.

we visit this grill restaurant even two times in our holiday. Fresh greek salad, tasty kebap and friendly service. Only the music is little bit too loud 😉

Only if they had a more spacious place. Very tasty indeed as the name of the restaurant already describes. The platter it's a must of you take your family or friends there.

Atmosphere was good but not enough room. Food was really good and service, especially from the new server, she was very welcoming.

Just arrived back from Greece and fancied another chicken souvlaki wrap, the only authentic part of my lunch was the music whilst I waited. There was a lack of chicken, the wrap was nice but it was smothered in salad cream which is revolting in itself but that is not authentic and does not belong in the wrap. Will not be visiting again, very disappointed and expensive

Greek cuisine is deeply rooted in Mediterranean traditions and is known for its health benefits, thanks to its reliance on fresh vegetables, olive oil, and lean proteins. It also reflects the country's history and geography, blending influences from the Middle East, Italy, and the Balkans.

Stopped by on the hope of getting a table and we did. Excellent experience and highly recommend!!

Loved the cosy dining, service and of course the food. Can't wait to go again😍

Wowwww absolutely amazing food, amazing customer service. Definitley be back

I was very happy with all of my food, It was nice an tasty. Service was great as well. Spent just under £10. I will revisit again when I am less busy and I also recommend.

Amazing food. Gyros is a must try.

Good experience. Nice Food. Amazing service 😁

Very good food, good service, too bad there is only one bathroom...at least one for women and one for men. I recommend for the food 👍

Great souvlaki. Greatt service with a smile and warm heart. Will definitely go back. Thank you
