I would like to write a good review. My family and I decided to try Greek cuisine. Along our route, this restaurant / coffee turned out to be nearby and I did not understand. The eye was pleased with the interior, polite staff. We were with the children. Immediately, without asking, they brought everything for the children to draw. Well, super!!!! And then it started....a huge cockroach crawled out of a glass with pencils right on the table. My mistake was not to leave right away. From the proposed menu, not everything could be ordered, then this is not there, then there is no other. But I was satisfied with the alternative. Everything was delicious. I ordered soup for the children, my husband ordered something meat for shampoo (I don't remember complicated names), well, I decided to please myself with dessert and juice. The result: I didn't wait for the juice, they forgot about me and I got poisoned. Where there are cockroaches, there is unsanitary conditions. Yes, and there was an unpleasant musty smell from the glasses. It was as if they had been washed with a smelly cloth and put on the table. If it weren't for these nuances, I would have had a good impression, but alas... The place is beautiful, your employees are polite, the food is delicious. But! The above has ruined everything... I would come to you again if I was sure that "the bottom would not take out" and the friends would not run past.🤣🤣🤣

It was September 14th, 2024. They were dissatisfied.
1. Dishes are heated in the microwave here. They are not cooked. The taste is appropriate: the meat in the gyros turned out to be dry, fried in a frying pan without a crust. They couldn't finish eating. French fries are soft. Potato slices are normal, but they are also from the microwave.
2. The food is heated by waiters and some girl not in chef's attire. They're frying French fries. It was confusing.
3. Two gyros, French fries, lemonade and cola came out at 70 Br. Normally, only potatoes and cola tasted good.
4. This is not a restaurant. Op confuses its positioning and name. In fact, this is a buffet where the waiters warm up not very interesting food for you.

We came for the second time (July 2024), before that we were a couple of years ago, then we liked it, we decided to go in so as not to look for something else. But they were disappointed: they cooked for a long time, it was not tasty, the meat was rubber steak, the vegetables were allegedly grilled all in oil, the kebab meat smells, the only thing is more or less a salad from the chef, only it is unclear why beef and chicken meat were mixed there.
Chicken kebab has a strange taste. They came out hungry. We won't go for sure again. I'm shooting stars.

Pleasant atmosphere, undisturbed furniture and room. Convenient location in the city, parking nearby, if you're lucky there will be a place. In all other respects, this is a weak point. The waiters are young students, probably, they are poorly oriented in dishes. Serving a dish at one o'clock is usually fine. But when it is heated in the microwave, it is very unpleasant.
I was there twice, with a girlfriend and friends. They upset me both times. He positions himself with seafood, but they don't know how to cook them at all. Squid -rubber, shrimp-rubber. There is absolutely no taste, only the translation of products. Corpacho from the refrigerator. The prices are reasonable.
If you eat quickly, it will do.
If you have a good time, look for another place

In general, it is tasty and edible. But keep in mind that the ordered dish is only the direction for the cook, in which direction he will move when preparing your dish. We ordered gyros and grilled chicken with vegetables. The same dish was brought. Chopped chicken with potatoes in a rustic way with sauce. They forgot about the salad altogether. Hardly adult chefs cook in the kitchen, who asked the waiter how to cook properly during cooking.

We have recently visited this institution. The couple's birthday was celebrated together with their parents.
We asked about the discount on the birthday in advance on Instagram, as well as looked at the information on the website.
When the bill was brought, it turned out that the dish should cost from a certain amount, fish is not included in the discount, and so on.
None of the employees warned about this, the information on the site was only about the amount of the discount, no conditions.
There was no administrator, none of the staff could solve anything and just threw up their hands.
We left a complaint because the receipt exceeded all expectations. The next day, all the changes appeared on the site very quickly.
No one even apologized for this situation, the administrator on the phone said in a haughty voice that a lawyer would answer us.

Stylish design, a large menu, a lot of authentic dishes, but not everything is available, for example, there was no gyros. I ordered a classic Greek salad, lula with yogurt sauce and branded tea. I liked tea the most. The salad was delicious, but the serving was disappointing - like in a Soviet canteen. I have nothing against such a presentation, but she sharply stated with a stylish design. Lula was terribly salty. Expensive and tasteless, the price does not match.

An assessment based on the sum of factors and taking into account impressions from other restaurants in Brest. The atmosphere is not bad , even neutrally good . The service is decent and fast. But it is not deservedly expensive, one and a half to two times more expensive than other, not bad places. The choice fell on this place because of the grill menu, and again but... on the day of the visit, I was not offered any meat on the grill. And what was suggested is too fat (fat where meat should be and butter where there should be nothing)

we visited this restaurant with a large company (14 people), pre-ordered at 21:00. we arrived at 21:06, only a quarter of all dishes were on the tables, the rest were delivered within an hour, it turned out that someone had already eaten their dishes, and someone was sitting and marveling at saliva waiting for his order to arrive. The food does not justify its price in any way, it is too overpriced. They paid 36 rubles for rice and 6 small shrimps.

Disappointed. The dishes are edible, but no more, not all the dishes from the menu are there. Poor serving, the tables are not cleaned, dust, the broken frame of the painting in a prominent place caught my eye, it seems that the state of the institution is not being monitored at all.
I do not recommend it

I was visiting Brest for the first time and decided to find an inexpensive restaurant -cafe.
We are very pleased with the family that it was the first place where we decided to eat that turned out to be YelGreko.
Everything that was ordered was very tasty, fresh and well cooked! The staff is very polite and friendly. It will seem to someone that it is a very long time to wait for an order (we waited more than an hour)
But this means that food is being prepared for you, and not a preheated semi-finished product!
By the way, as they write in the comments, I was pleased that they immediately brought a carafe of water, which is good for health, to drink clean water half an hour before eating.
In general, El Greco well done guys!
By the way, it's a very cozy, bright place.
And the music.... I don't know where it was found, but we heard covers of famous songs, which is also unusual and interesting.
After all, as a rule, the same thing sounds everywhere....

A mediocre place that has seen the sights
Sticky tables, a menu torn to holes (sometimes sheets printed on a black-and-white printer) and then only 2-3 pages. There are many positions in the foot.
The place attracts a maximum of a medium/low-level cafe than a restaurant

The idea is cool, but...there is no "light" in the eyes of the greeters, or anything special for visitors. I've been there twice and it's kind of gray.
..The interior is pleasant.

Nice interior, very poor service, strange serving of dishes. I ordered shakshuka, they forgot to bring a flatbread to it until I reminded them (at first the waiter said that the dish did not include it). My friends didn't get quite what they ordered.

It's an expensive shawarma with a battered menu. The prices are too high, the assortment is not pleased. For vegetarians, the choice is very small. They went to another place.

Moussaka was simply defrosted, very hot from below and cold from above, besides the eggplants are half-cooked and very cold. In a hot dish! Focacha was a half-baked, ordinary poorly baked bun, with a raw dough inside. I ate everything because I came very hungry. But this is very far from Greek cuisine, it is a complete disrespect for the dish and the client. I am very ashamed of you. You have no understanding of how to provide high-quality service and even more so how to cook Greek dishes. Moussaka is a business card of Greek cuisine and you have none.

Today, on November 4, 2022, we accidentally (looking for a place to eat) went to Elgreko. We went in after the lamplighter, we were a little chilled, autumn in Brest is great, but it's still a little cold in the evenings. We had a family vacation. The girl Polina listened to us patiently, the cook quickly cooked (we were practically alone) and Polina brought it to us. We ate everything with pleasure and satisfied that the elephants, wearily share it home))) The kitchen is good, the service was pleasant, the music is pleasant and unobtrusive. Thanks for everything!!!

No sooner had I crossed the threshold and reached the nearest table than I smelled the smells from the open kitchen. It didn't even stink like that in the pancake houses where fate took me.

The atmosphere is pleasant, the staff is polite.
BUT the cooking is very long, although we were the only visitors at that moment. The cradle was over-dried.
The prices are reasonable - not to say cheap, but not so expensive either.

A very ambiguous feeling after visiting this institution. There were no people in the hall and the order was brought quite quickly, the food itself is not bad, tasty enough, but not so impressive as to pay 20 byn for one small dish… The price-quality ratio is unbalanced.

The service is just terrible, very slow, the staff is lost on the menu, half of the wines from the menu were simply not available. If you ask for advice, they just advise the most expensive. By the way, the price is unreasonably high. The kitchen is slow and not particularly tasty. Snacks are brought no earlier than half an hour later, the hot was brought earlier than the salad. We were very disappointed.

There are not many normal Greek places in Belarus. And it's good here
If you are just getting to know Greece, I advise you to take all the snacks from the menu to the table, and not lean on individual dishes, just here the snacks are top (especially Zaziki)
There is also Greek wine, which is also rare

If you want to experience gastronomic pleasure, you are welcome here! The best Mediterranean cuisine, healthy and delicious, excellent wine list and excellent service!
1. As soon as you have sent it, they will bring you a carafe of water
2. They will tell you what is what and outline the flavors of the dish, even if you are zero in this kitchen
3. Children will be given coloring books, pencils and board games
4. Incredibly cozy, there are pads
5. You see the kitchen working
6. The atmosphere is just amazing!!!😍😍😍

We specially took a taxi for Greek cuisine, and they had some kind of fest, the menu is strictly limited to dishes from this fest. Despite the sign at the entrance about moussaka and gyros, we didn't get either. Well, at least they apologized...

A cockroach was running around the table in the establishment. I was offered to move to another table, but the sediment remained unpleasant. I won't say about the menu, I went to the gastrofest 2023, personally we didn't like the set. The music is very loud, I had to speak in a raised tone. The interior is simple. I mean, it's even clean.

I was pleased that the restaurant staff is fighting for every customer… And I am ready not to refuse and to be creative.
But a cradle with black ciabatta instead of pita is too much.
I recommend removing the fried eggplant appetizer from the menu.

Expensive and tasteless. Comparing with the original Greek cuisine, the dishes have nothing to do with Greek cuisine. Instead of a gyros, there are pieces of meat, and a cutlet in a mousse. I don't recommend it.

In my opinion, the place is overrated.
The lemonade is tasteless, although the ice has not even started to melt in the glass, but it costs 6 BYN.
The so-called "kebab" is similar to a sausage in taste, a lot of garlic, Bulgarian pepper was also declared on the menu, a whole pepper was also depicted in the photo, and as a result 2 slices were brought 😒
But the nuggets with potatoes were delicious, but the same can be taken at KFC, for example)
Another of the advantages is that they bring a carafe of water, because the food is spicy and salty, then it's very in the subject 👍
In general, I would not go back there.
The staff is good
The atmosphere is pleasant, but the music is loud
Food for 3/5

There were 3 times. The interior is cozy, the service is good. Greek snacks are delicious, especially hummus.
You won't be able to eat hot dishes. Chorizo sausages are two ordinary over-dried beef sausages for almost the price of a steak. Chorizo was not seen in the kitchen. Also with kebab and gyros. For such a price, the quality is lower than the baseboard.

There were almost no visitors on Saturday evening. This is a big plus. There are few fish dishes. We were going to try something Greek, fish, sea. As a result, due to the poor choice in this category, they took just meat, kebab on a skewer. It was delicious, the sauces add spice and piquancy. Most likely, due to the small number of visitors, the dishes were served very quickly. I liked everything very much! The next time we visit Brest, we will definitely look again. Hopefully there will be more fish on the menu.

The kitchen is very satisfying, don't take a lot at a time, come a few times). If you want to join the Mediterranean food, then you are here. The dishes are adapted to the northern inhabitants: less cumin and the pungent smell of olives, which I only welcome! I definitely recommend it!

The kitchen has become terrible, despite the fact that prices are among the highest in Brest. We ordered basmati rice with shrimp for 36 rubles. The shrimp are tiny, overcooked, there are five pieces of lonely at the top of watery overcooked rice, horror, I'd rather cook at home. It should be a shame to serve this in a restaurant
