Zythos Mediterranean Grill

Random Greek restaurant in the industrial area of Port Kells. Lots of space and they have a private party room. The Greek salad came in a separate bowl which I prefer lots of feta cheese and flavour. Also, not drenched in oil. The tzatziki was one of the best I've ever had, was not bland whatsoever. Flavourful! I think that's what made the calamari tasty, anything dipped in a good sauce makes everything delicious. The rice however was bland. I didn't mind the roasted potato. Service was attentive. I would give this restaurant 3.5 stars if I could.

We've tried Zythos for dine in and takeout and after having both we can confirm that this is very average Greek food, actually a bit of a let down. Standard fare, nothing to note as exceptional, and a few meh moments. We tried the calamari one of our true tests of quality. Zythos serves thick slices of squid that are very lightly breaded. I wouldn't be surprised if it was previously frozen pre prepared like this. Plus, they are quite chewy. overcooked I guess. We didn't finish it and we usually polish off a good plateof calamari. Then came the Greek salad. Each portion was in a massive bowl, and consisted of mostly very large chunks of beefsteak tomato and cucumber. The rest of the veg were small dices/slices of onion and pepper. There was one token olive on top of each bowl. The size discrepancies between the massive tomato/cuke and the miniscule onion/pepper was a little strange. The amount of dressing and cheese was nice though. When the mains came, I was a little disappointed. The potato portion was very small, and it didn't have very much flavour. My roast lamb was OK for the most part, typically tender and tasty, but it was dry and tough on the outside almost like a lamb jerky. The portions of this and the souvlaki were not very big either. We had high hopes for this location but I think we'll continue our hunt for the best Greek in the area.

We came here today for our early dinner after my appointment. What a awesome finding for this great little restaurant. It's our first time visiting and I am already thinking of coming back! 5 stars for the customer service as our server was so friendly and warm. Restaurant is not new but is clean. They do sanitize the tables well. We have decided to order a platter to share since it included everything we like: Mediterranean Platter $52: this platter already includes with 2 bowls of Greek salad, rice, roast potatoes and pita bread. Our sever is so kind and let us change 1 bowl to Caesar salad to try. Salad and pita bread will be brought over after you ordered. Fresh vegetables and pita bread that just wonderful became our appetizers while waiting our main platter to come. I like they served the bread warm and also brush with the butter. ? If I am not wrong, because that what I smelled) the pita bread was just so fluffy and soft. The Mediterranean platter came with roast lamb, kalamari, spanakopita, dolmades and chicken skewer. The calamari was fried so crispy and so as the roast lamb. The outside was crispy but the inside meat still very tender. Other items were all very good and this platter was just exceeded our expectations.

WOW the reviews of this place held up to the reputation! The only thing is when we walked in, had to wait a couple minutes to be acknowledged though it wasn't busy and had enough staff. The owners children were the greeters and seaters so they could use a bit more prompting of how customer service should be. We ordered keftedes meatballs, chicken and lamb souvlaki along with the usual sides of tzaziki, pita, rice, potato and veg. Service was excellent and food came out quickly. We devoured as much as we could and took leftovers home as it's very filling. The ambiance was lively and its a nice restaurant but strangely located in an industrial area. Definitely will go back again!

We ordered the Zythos platter with Moussaka, lamb, meatballs, beef and chicken skewers. Came with Greek salad and pita and tzatzki. It was very good and tasted home made. the server was very attentive and helpful as well. this is a great place to go for Greek food.
