Outstanding food! We were having a birthday lunch for our daughter who was recently studying in Greece. We felt like we were back in Athens! Our server, Blu, was amazing. Friendly, fun and so sweet.

Wow, absolutely delicious, fresh food. Every dish was perfectly good and may be the best eggplant I’ve ever eaten. Lovely ambiance on rooftop outdoor seating area. Will definitely return.

Just three blocks from our hotel, the Taverna was quite good. I was there with a party of 14 - always a challenge to the wait staff. They handled it quite well. My Chicken Mykonos (Grilled chicken over penne pasta tossed with spinach, feta, mushrooms,...tomatoes, and white wine lemon cream sauce, topped with Parmesan) was excellent and the serving was large. Others had the grilled salmon, the lamb chops, the lamb shank and, from what I could tell, everyone thought the food was superb.More
It’s sad to see a one’s great Greek restaurant go downhill so fast, but on my visit on a busy Friday night, the food was very substandard. Try he saganaki was about half the size of most restaurants and it tasted more like deep fried...fish than the way it supposed to taste From a texture standpoint. Lamb chops, now at $36, were ordered medium, but the insides had some very wrong parts. Maybe the answer is to avoid this place when it’s busy and go on a night where they can devote sufficient time in the kitchen. For the price you pay at this restaurant I expect much higher quality food.More

We loved the Ambiance,but that was ALL!!!We tried ordering a bottle of wine but 3 times our waitress returned telling us they were not available!Tried to talk is into more expensive wines rather than offering us one at the price we were paying.After ordering and...waiting 45 min our shared appetizer came without any plates,no pita bread served.Our 2 main courses arrived 1&1/2 hours after we ordered!This was Monday evening at 6:30 .Overall a BIG disappointment & will not return.More

Over the years, business has taken me to Athens scores of times, and I long ago fell in love with both Greek wine and the Greek kitchen. My partner and I search out Greek restaurants all over the US, and heartily recommend this one to...all who share our love of Greek cuisine. The setting is warm and comfortable; when we visited, there were a couple of large groups, couples on obvious dates, and individual diners. And this was at the height of the dinner hour. I should add that we parked on the street, which in the evening was free of charge. Taverna Agora has an extensive menu of traditional appetizers, so we decided to explore this element of the menu and forego a main course. We started with an excellent tzatziki, and then moved on to a superb saganaki flambeed at the table. Dolmades and keftedes came next. We strongly, strongly recommend the keftedes, although the dolmades were quite tasty. Spanakopita made for a light finish, enabling us to wolf down a traditional and delicious baklava at the end. We shared a bottle of retsina. I would have preferred something much more resinated (Kourtaki is my top choice), but my partner thought it was just right. With tip, the meal totaled out at a little over $100, but about $40 of this was for the wine. We thought that, in terms of both quality and quantity, our dinner was quite reasonable priced.More

We headed to the Greek Kitchen on a recommendation. There were eight of us and we were seated quickly on a Friday night. I had the daily special-Gemista....it was really nice...my wife had Moussaka...it too was outstanding! Our waitress Chloe was even more amazing....we was...so sweet and attentive. But then the fun started....the Greek band began playing and then the belly dancer....before we realized it, we were dancing and singing around the restaurant. We had such a great time....we will definitely be back. Don't miss the fun.More

Oh my gosh! Everything was delicious!! We got the Greecian Grill and everything was fabulous! The rice and squash we're perfectly cooked, meat was perfectly seasoned, and the salad (honestly never thought that would be a highlight) was phenomenal. Our server (the awesome bartender) said...it is cut to order and it tastes like it (so fresh). Our drinks (baklava old fashioned, gold rush and Greek lemonade) we're amazing plus Cayla made a drink with the Empress gin (Royal Hawaiian) we were talking about. Awesome experience and can't wait to dig into our baklava cheesecake. Yum!!!More
So happy you had a fantastic meal with us! Thank you for taking the time to share your satisfaction with others! We appreciate it! We hope to serve you again very soon!
It's good but expensive. The flavor is there, though. For dinner, their Biftekia, which is kind of a bunless burger, and their Hirini Brizola, which is a tomahawk pork chop, are both excellent. Portions on the dinner items are just a little on the small...side, especially for the price. The lunch menu is better in my opinion and a little more reasonably priced. For example, the meat on the lamb burger on the lunch menu is really outstanding (like the Biftekia). There are other Greek restaurants in the Carolinas that have a broader menu, including Taza on Falls of the Neuse, which is half the price but just as good as Taverna Agora. Zorba's in Columbia, South Carolina is better. The service at Taverna Agora is OK, but they're a little too comfortable.More

Had dinner at Taverna Agora with friends and had the best time! We sat on the front patio (it’s enclosed) and had it all to ourselves. Quiet and warm while we were catching up, and Taylor was a fabulous waitress! I’ll be back!
We are so glad you had an excellent experience! Thanks for taking the time to leave such a great rating! We hope we can serve you again very soon!
The new items- grilled octopus and eggplant was incredible. Service was amazing as always! My 7 year old loved his hash. Highly recommend!
