Best Greek Restaurants in Des Plaines

Loved my experience here! I had an incredible experience at Ema from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I was seated right away, which set the tone for a smooth and enjoyable evening. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a lively yet comfortable vibe that made it the perfect spot for a meal. The food was absolutely phenomenal—every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The Mediterranean-inspired menu offers a great variety of small plates, and each one was a hit. The hummus was silky smooth, the kebabs were perfectly cooked. Pairing everything with a glass of wine made for an even more memorable experience. Service was impeccable—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Our server made excellent recommendations and ensured we had everything we needed without feeling rushed. Overall, Ema exceeded all expectations. Whether you’re looking for a casual dinner or a special night out, this place delivers. I can’t wait to return!

We had a nice time for Valentines. My wife loved that they accommodated us even tho we were late due to the snowstorm. The service was amazing and the food was delicious! We had the tasting menu with a four course meal. Highly recommended for date night’s and anyone just looking for a good venue, with music and tasty food.

Denise was amazing!! Very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. Her suggestions were great. We had a great night!!

Andros Taverna is such a great spot to get Greek food that has a really nice flare to it. There are lots of Greek places in Chicago that are really casual. At Andros, everything is really fresh, and all of the dishes have a good little elevation to them that makes them feel very authentic, but also really exciting. The space is really well done. It's nice enough that you feel fine dressing up and having a fancy date, but cool enough that you can come in a tshirt and jeans. It's a great balance. Our service was really fantastic. The host greeted us really warmly and took us straight to our table, and our server walked us through everything, and did just the right amount of checking in on us and paying attention to when we might need more drinks or be interested in some additional dishes.

Thoroughly enjoyed our evening. There was a mistake with our reservation, but it was quickly and appropriately handled. We had a great time and even pushed back our dinner reservation last minute so we could enjoy more time over drinks and listening to live music. We will absolutely be back.
