Yiamas Greek Taverna in Glasgow City

Went here on Saturday night with some friends from Belfast. They said it was always their first stop when in Glasgow. I can now see why. We all four had great main courses of pitas, chicken, pork and lamb souvlaki, moussaka and of course Greek chips.. Giant portions and all delicious. Some nice Greek red wine and a couple of Mythos too. All finished off with the obligatory raki and we were stuffed. We will be back very soon.

Lovely little place. Food was Absolutely amazing! Will definitely be back. Had the lamb slouvaki and pork gyro plate. Delicious!

Lovely restaurant, friendly efficient staff and the food was great! Ive not eaten Greek food for a while but we all enjoyed trying new dishes.Comfortable surroundings, Greek beer and good range of wines

This place never disappoints, We have been here several times a mixture of eating in and taking away and cannot recommend enough! This is where we choose to celebrate any big milestones due to its delicious food and great atmosphere. We suggest that anyone who has the opportunity to try this restaurant, do so, immediately!

Went for dinner and shared a selection of small plates between us. All the food was delicious, authentic and really good quality. Service was swift and the waiting staff were all really friendly. Would definitely have gone back while we're on holiday but the restarant is closed Mon-Wed.

Solo business trip to Glasgow. Had the pick of restaurants in the city but just fancied a simple Greek! Wow I was not disappointed! A lovely friendly welcome from the Greek girl who was lovely throughout. Had three courses with a large Mythos for just less than 30 quid! The cheese pastry with honey starter was lovely and the gyros was just perfect! Reminded me of Halkidiki holidays. Baklava to go was devine also. Friendly authentic cheap so for me it's an easy 5 stars and will deffo go back if I find myself back in Glasgow. Yamas to you all.

We booked this to eat before a concert and what a find. Lovely and helpful staff, delicious fresh food and so reasonably priced. What more can you ask for. Definitely recommend.

Great little Greek restaurant! Super friendly staff, good service and most importantly the food tasted amazing! Reasonable price for the city centre. In my opinion great value for money and I’d highly recommend this place.

Lovely little taste of Greece! As a lover of Greek food and travelling the world a lot, I have to say Yiamas to Yiamas! Tzatziki was loved and creamy, Greek salad was heavenly and the Dolmades were wonderful. Will definitely pop back here and I highly recommend. How Greek food should be :)

We were on a shopping trip & thought we would give this restaurant a try. It did not disappoint. We shared some small plates then gyros. It was lovely . Couldn’t fault the service or price. Will definitely be back

We got two gyros to go and they were lovely. Can’t wait to sit in next time we are in the area to sample more dishes. Staff very friendly.

I've had gyros many times in Greece and can confidently say the one I had at Yiamas is one of the best I've ever had. The food is amazing, they have Mythos, the service is great and the prices are fair. This is now one of our favourite restaurants in Glasgow so can highly recommend it.

Brilliant meal.. Attended last Sunday. We had the chicken..Starters we had rye bread and houmous. The tomatoes were off the scale. An open kitchen added to the attraction and a bottle of house red under £20.. All in all a brilliant meal. Alas we had zero room for a sweet... Ideally situated around a 5 minute walk from the Holiday Inn Express and even less from the Hard Rock..

We came today for lunch and boy what a good decision it was to come here. Staff were attentive and we had a laugh about ordering drinks. Food was freshly cooked to order and was very tasty. We had a vegan pitta, feta in filo, chicken pitta a mixed gyros and baklava. Everything went down a treat and would go again :)

Visited here for food prior to attending a concert. Staff were friendly, food was really tasty, arrived quickly and was hot and fresh. Cocktails were also super! Great selection of Greek dishes and reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend.

Dropped in for a pre-theatre bite to eat. Staff really friendly and food was excellent. Had lamb souvlaki, which was perfectly cooked and delicious. Other half had moussaka which was also really tasty. Would definitely visit again.

Delicious food, lovely ambience and hardworking attentive staff made for a great evening would highly recommend we will be back !

Restaurant was almost empty at 5pm but soon filled up! Great service, food and drinks We really love Greek food and this did not disappoint

Great Greek restaurant in the heart of Glasgow, relaxed atmosphere, service is superb & food was outstanding 👌

Booked online for a Saturday night. It was quite busy but the service was efficient. The restaurant decor is very nice. We shared 2 small plates as starters. The beef meatballs were particularly tasty. The Gyros were tasty and the beef moussaka was particularly fragrant, the veg moussaka less so but still good. Nice skin on chips too. Really enjoyed our meals.

Great little place on Bath Street in Glasgow. One thing I’ve always tried when eating Greek food is Saganak, having spent a few years working in Greece many years ago it was always a favourite of mine. A lot of places make it with Feta cheese which I don’t like but here they did it with Kefalograviera which was amazing. It tasted great and was the best I’ve tried in the UK. Main course was also excellent. Large bottle of Mythos beer, starter and main, was just over £24 and I thought it was excellent value for money.

Recently visited this family run Greek Taverna. Good location in Glasgow City Centre. Friendly and welcoming staff with excellent choice of food and drinks at reasonable prices . I had Moussaka and chips and this was cooked to perfection, well worth a return visit.

Had a couple hours in Glasgow between buses and had dinner at Yimas. Gyro was a wee bit chewy, but tasty and the the Greek salad was nice. Fries were excellent. I will return given the opportunity.

We had a reservation for Sunday evening. Not busy at all. Kind reception. We were told that some products were not available. We had a chicken- souvlaki and a halloumi souvlaki with greek salad. As side dishes fries and a tomato, aubergine and pepperoni vegetable mix. It al was really nice and tasteful. As desert we choose the ice-cream .

Very good prices, the food is absolutely delicious. Nice staff and perfect atmosphere. Totally recomend!

out to celibrate a family birthday, greeted immediately with a happy smile from the waitress and shown to our seat, drinks order sorted and given enough time to organise our food order. When our food arrived it was as usual delicious and authentic, both owners greeted us and were extemely freindly making sure we had everything we needed. Everything on the menu is well priced and well worth it. so if you are looking for a fun family oriented authentic Greek taverna get yourself down to Bath Street and enjoy a little slice of heaven

I have been here with two groups in April. I emailed our food order for 20 people a couple of days before. Everyone loved the food and the staff were amazing. Nothing was too much bother, even though they had to come upstairs to our table. I was there again with 13 people yesterday and we had a fixed price mezze which was brilliant, a great selection of food to share. Once again the staff were delightful and everyone has said that they plan to return.

Very tasty Greek food. My Greek friend always says that it’s authentic and the only restaurant that reminds her of Greece. I really enjoyed it.

Wanted to love this place, but sadly it was just average. Waited ages for waiting staff to take drinks order. Then when we asked for the different dishes to be brought together. They weren't, they were brought as starters then mains. Feta dip very watery. Though the tzatziki was nice. Halloumi souvlaki, the best bit was the halloumi, the rest really dry especially the hummus. Chicken souvlaki, no flavour at all on the chicken. Really disappointed as we love greek food. Expected more as it was 5 at night and not busy. Unfortunately don't recommend. Try Babs or Elia instead.

Food was really good.. good portion size , value for money, great atmosphere and friendly staff... Worth a visit if you're in Glasgow

The taste you get from simple dishes is amazing,rustic chips have herb/salt that just is so flavoured, as does the bread,tomato feta dish. The whole visits on both occasions was great and new experiences from Mediterranean flavours.

Visited having been in Glasgow for some shopping and visiting the Christmas market in George Square. Really nice place. Staff friendly and welcoming, food delicious and good sized portions. Will definitely return when back in Glasgow.

We've eaten here several times - it is always a pleasure. Great Greek food, welcoming, friendly staff, superb atmosphere and value for money! Whats not to like?! We love it.

Fancied this restaurant for a while. A selection of different foods and amazing flavours. The food of rustic bread greek style was great. Vegetarian options and meat options great for both parties here. See photos. Will go back next time in area. Rustic chips were...

Reviewed this restaurant prior to visiting Glasgow and we weren’t disappointed with our lunchtime experience. Staff were welcoming and friendly, food was excellent , and the portions were generous. Prices were reasonable. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Fabulous food - lamb souvlaki, greek salad, tatziki and soft fluffy pitta with a side of fried was heaven Friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere

This was good generous Greek food, delicious gyros, big salad. A casual lunch with my daughter, nice and tasty . Good service

Visited here today after waiting ages in another restaurant/Bar and zero service so we walked out and stumbled on Yiamas. Small simple place that doesn’t look anything special but great service and food was 10/10. So tastey and fresh and can’t wait to go back....

We popped in for lunch having read a review in the Times a few months ago. Fabulous food choices and flavours. Hubby had pork gyro and I had a selection of small plates and Greek salad. Everything cooked to perfection and delivered with a smile...

On a stopover in Glasgow, we chanced on this taverna. The food couldn't have been nicer and at a reasonable price. Hopefully we will be back soon, though we will ask to be seated downstairs rather than upstairs where the music made it difficult to...

Being going to this restaurant for a good few years when ever I am in the centre of Glasgow-Consistently excellent Greek Food. Friendly service-Recommended

Very friendly welcome from the girl who seen to you as you entered the restaurant this level of friendly welcome service carried on throughout our meal. We ordered few small plates and 2 souvlaki dishes, each of the dishes were very tasty and the lamb...

My girlfriend and I stopped by for a quick lunch. Chicken souvlaki was great and the staff was very friendly. Definitely we’ll be back!

A must visit in glasgow! Great menu, tasty food, friendly staff. Gyro was absolutely delicious!! Highly recommend,,,

The honey and feta pastries are a highlight - loved! We had a halloumi gyro and mixed meat gyro. Halloumi option was lovely, and they both had nice salad and fresh bread. We visited on a Saturday early afternoon (they had only been open maybe...

Ok, I swear we just stopped in for dinner because we walked by and it smelled amazing. We are so happy we did! The lamb meat was flavor and delicious and the portions were plenty of food! We even had some leftover! Staff was friendly...

Just starting to get out and about in Glasgow City centre. We have been here many times in the past. And it's getting to be a weekly habit now. True Greek gyros. Really awesome chips, courgette fritters, ice coffee, wine, dessert. Have it all. The...

This is the best spot for Greek food in town. I have been visiting this place every now and then for the past 5 years and never been disappointed. The Gyros portions are large and tasty, souvlakis are also great - generous portions too. Friendly...

There last night and was not dissapointed we had Lamb and Pork Souvlakimeat very tender and the Lamb just a hint of pink. Staff very helpful and attentive without intruding on our meal. Five points all day long.

Service was very good and the waiters were very polite and quick to serve the food. Then fries were very nice but the gyro was a bit disappointing as it was cold and sloppy.

Me and my husband love Greek food and after lockdown decided to try Yiamas as it had always been somewhere we had wanted to go. I am so glad that we did, we have been back multiple times ever since. The Greek family that run...

We looked to book this restaurant but the only take bookings for tables of 5 or more. Meant that smaller groups were a bit hit or miss if they got served depending if a table became free. So either go early or have a back...

Bought 7 pitas with a group of friends for £50, bear on mind we only got 7 pitas, no drinks no nothing. Gyros was dry, had a lot of pepper, too much oil and pitas barely had any tzatziki... Very disappointed I had my hopes...

Tasty food at good prices. Relaxed cafe atmosphere although busy. Service friendly & helpful. Enjoyed wine & perfectly cooked meats & fresh Greek salad. Felt the tables a bit too close together but this is the case for many places. Would return to try other...

Had a family gathering for 10 on a Saturday afternoon. Food was great especially the tzatziki, it was just fab. Service was good, and everything came out hot and together. Enjoyed Greek beer and wine, we were just missing some sunshine 🇬🇷

Myself and my girlfriend tried to book a table for 2 at Yiamas on a Saturday evening. We were told that they don't do reservations for under 6 people. I thought this was strange and I'd never heard of a restaurant not taking bookings for...

Popped in for lunch on 21/11 with my daughter,her boyfriend and my sister. Food was good, service as expected pleasant and good. Unfortunately we 3 ladies used the toilet facilities but there NO SOAP in all 3 dispensers.I think this is totally unacceptable at any...

We were recommended here by a friend and it wasn't too busy for a Saturday night so we got a table straight away. We each had the gyros plates which were pretty good overall. For the two of us, it only cost just over £30...

As soon as lockdown lifted and we could travel we drove here for a takeaway and it did not disappoint! Even better now we can sit in and take in the friendly atmosphere. Amazing food and always a friendly welcome.

Stopped for quick lunch. Son and husband both had the chicken gyros. I had the gyros plate. All cooked beautifully and large portions . Would visit again .

If you ever want to go to a Greek restaurant and you are not sure of the food go here. The staff will cater to you needs ( I was allergic to cucumber) so they went to the bother of giving me a side dish...

Great gyros, great price, great service. As a small venue with little soft furnishings it can get very loud but to be fair there was a very large group in at the time.

Being half Greek I can confirm, authentic and amazing food, great place. The people are really friendly and the food is absolutely spot on. Made me feel like I was back in Greece.

Great wee find while looking for food in Glasgow. Excellent food tasted great well presented great prices. Felt like I was on holiday food was very tasty can't wait to come back

Great wee place. Food and service was excellant. Not loads on the menu but that's what I like about it. Well run family restaurant. Prices are reasonable to. I recommend the Gyro's. Best I've had and I've had a few!

Delicious food and fantastic service and all reasonably priced too. We all had gyros, mixed and halloumi. We also tried the Greek salad, filthy fries and feta and spinach pastry. Everything tasted fresh and was so lovely. We will be back!

had dolmades as a starter very greasy. left most of them. Had chips with the main course which were cold and loaded with salt. We complained and got a "fresh" bowl which were warmer but again loaded with salt. we could see the cook from...

Was a treat to be able to go out for a meal with family and Yiamas didn't disappoint Friendly staff, great selection of food and generous portions Winner all the way...

Can’t fault this place at all! 3 of us came through to Glasgow and after stalking their Instagram for months I suggested we go here for tea! We had the tzatziki starter (massive portion) the chicken pitta, lamb pitta and halloumi pitta, we shared the...

Pleasant welcome, all COVID-19 prevention measures in place, we had a reservation, but walk-ins now accepted. Starters included tzatziki, served in the biggest individual portion I have seen. The portion of gyros as a main course was also larger than most. The fries were also...

This restaurant is in Bath Street/West Nile Street and on a bus route. The menu was fairly standard Greek with additional steak and other grilled meats. I had dolmades while my wife had taramosalata. Both were quite tasty as starters. Then we both had Moussaka...

Popped in for light lunch here. Service was good and waitress happy to recommend dishes and advise re portion size etc. We had chicken and lamb Souvlaki with Greek salad which was all delicious. Drinks prices reasonable. Would definitely eat here again.

We visited again tonight for an early evening meal after visiting on a number of occasions over the last year. Once again we were absolutely blown away by the food, service and atmosphere. The waitress is fabulous, so friendly, helpful, caring and efficient, she really...

Been a few times now and always been a pleasure, never had a bad experience. The food is always lovely, service is friendly without being intrusive and the bill doesn't put a dent in your bank balance. Had the chicken gyros, saganaki prawns and kolokithokeftedes...

Rude staff. I did not get information about vegan options, and was met with an arrogant attitude when asking questions about the menu. I would definitely not recommend this place for any vegan customers, or for people with allergies and special needs with regard to...

We stopped here for dinner prior to an event at the nearby Concert Hall. It’s a lovely small simple Greek taverna - providing fabulous meze standards. Great value and tasty food.

Love love love this place! The food is amazing! Saganaki and gyros especially! Really good value for money and excellent customer service too!

Ate here yesterday with my husband and my mum and we all really enjoyed our lunches. The Christmas turkey Gyros special was delicious!! Starters were also great, and the portions were so generous as well. We also had a friendly and helpful waitress who took...

We arranged to meet two friends in Glasgow and chose Yiamas as it was central for all. The young lady who served us wasn't very attentive and answered questions curtly. One of the party asked for ouzo and was given a small carafe and two...

Locale tranquillo e piatti davvero ottimi. Tutti i piatti mi hanno riportato al ricordo delle vacanze in Grecia ... davvero...

A work colleague recommended here so we visited. Delighted we did! Very tasty food, we each had the Gyros Portion, very tasty and huge portions but the real winner here is the halloumi starter! Delish. We'll be back.

My wife and I went on a Wednesday at 1800hrs and it wasn't too busy, but got slightly busier later on. We had numerous small plates between us and everyone of them was fantastic. The taramasalata and takziti were to die for as was the...

I ordered a chicken gyros wrap expecting something reasonably similar to what ive enjoyed on countless occassions from greek takeaways in Greece. What i recieved resembled nothing like it. For a more authentic wrap, ill stick to a tried and tested greek takeaway in Edinburgh....

My friend and I paid a visit to Yiamas for lunch yesterday. Haven’t been in over a year and after my visit I’ll be sure not to wait as long next time! We both ordered mixed meat gyros. Unfortunately the chicken was so popular that...

Going to a concert at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, practically round the corner, decided to try Yiamas for the first time, but not the last, friendly staff and nice surroundings set us up for an enjoyable evening, the food, uniformly delightful, was topped of for...

Absolutely amazing experience here in Yiamas taverna. From professional staff up to delicious food. Thank you YIAMAS GREEK TAVERNA

Met up with family here for a meal and was impressed by the food quality and flavours. Will probably go back again before leaving the city as menu had a number of intriguing dishes. Service also attentive.

Authentic gyros and quick friendly service. Also had a lamb skewer which was served with the tastiest mustard sauce. The Greek salad was freezing cold, so cold it was unpleasant to eat. The chefs clothes though were filthy which really put me off.

Popped in for lunch today - ordered bread and olives, intended as a starter with our wine but itarrived after our food - good nevertheless. We had pork and lamb gyros. The lamb was delicious, but my wife was less enthusiastic about the pork -...

Service was average. Squid and whitebait to start. Apparently whitebait was lovely but squid was lacking in any flavour and was bland. No dip. Next was the mains. Ordered chicken gyros portion and chicken souvlaki pita. Pita was okay. What can I say about the...

Had the pepper gemista with bread and tzatziki. Really delicious, authentic Greek taste at a great price.I didn't give 5 stars as I like my gemista sauce slightly more oily and less tomatoey (better for dunking my bread in) but this is just a personal...

For someone who misses the souvlakis of Melbourne, this was a very good meal. Love both the chicken and pork souvlakis, and really friendly service at a great price. Will be back

The quality of the food was excellent as was the quality of the service. Food bursting with flavour, served quickly and for a great price. Really excellent for a quick lunch!

Spending the day in Glasgow, this is the best place to go for something to eat. We had the Gyros which were very tasty and filling. Sure to return next time we are in Glasgow.

About as authentic your going to get round here had a lamb souvlaki and greek salad lamb and flat bread were beautiful meat tender with a couple of amazing dips on the side, simple greek salad done well and proper well done will be back!

Popped in for lunch on a quiet Tuesday. Spoke to a friendly regular who told me it’s Cretan food but really it’s all Greek to me. I had an unadventurous selection of dolmades, tzatsiki, and chicken souvlaki with some house white. It was all delicious,...

Great food. Very very tasty. If you like proper Greek food, go! I've had the Pork Gyros. So indulgent. Seasoned to perfection. The hummus and pitta bread is the best I've ever tasted!

Honestly we just stumbled on Yiamas. We were hungry and tired. It was a fabulous spot for lunch and a drink. The spicy pita and yogurt dip is AMAZING!!!! Frankly after a bite of that, nothing else mattered. Greek salad was really good. My husband’s...

Review by Dr H C Matthew Sim. Good Greek Food. The wrap was very good. The meatball was ok. Maybe I was not used to tomato based meatball. The style of the meatball was unusual. Service was acceptable but slow. Ambience was interesting. I can...

My family and I visited here recently and we really enjoyed the food! We were a little dissapointed when ordering to find that they had run out of halloumi and that the chicken gyro wouldn't be ready for 30 minutes but we selected some other...
