    I love getting gyros here and the lemon soup. Everyone who works at Ikaros seems super nice! If my purse is big enough, sometimes the gyro gets smuggled into the movie theater..

    The Gyouvetsi meh Arni there is to die for, glad I asked my Greek friend if I should order it; and the Dolmades were literally the best I've ever had.

    Everything is great here. The only item on the menu whose appeal I don't understand is Greek coffee. I'd like to know what people like about it.

    The lemon chicken soup is delicious! Great if you have a sore throat. Don't add any salt though. It has plenty. I like salt so this is not a complaint.

    Eat the spinach pie and ask them to heat it up. The owner may offer you some Greek liqueur if you're nice.
