Everything was great. The dips were all fantastic. The pita was fresh and amazing. The rock shrimp was great as well. The service was also great. Will definitely return

Food was really great, I was happy with what I ordered. I got the filet mignon. My friends tried the pasta dishes and Mousaka. I ordered the banana walnut cake per the reviews and it was very good. Happy with the service. Just wish waiters wouldn't come around so often to grab the dishes.

First time there. Beautifully decorated. Upscale vibe. Kiana, our server, was extremely friendly and helpful although she was MIA at times so we asked for help from other attendants who were glad to help. She probably had too many tables to serve. The menu included many interesting selections. We ordered 2 glasses of wine, calamari, the fish main entree, and two skewer dishes. We also shared a side of eggplant. All the food was excellent but quite pricey. Our check was $216 which included a 20% tip. I would recommend for special occasions. Other: parking on a Sunday night was difficult... Oak Brook mall. But they offer valet services. $15 plus tip.

Wow! This restaurant is beautiful. The decor is really pretty! Our waiter was really friendly and attentive. The Calamari was really good and the veal was delicious, I was so impressed. They bring out sparklers for the whole restaurant which is a really cool experience during dinner!

We had an excellent dinner here a few weeks ago. The outside patio is gorgeous - and I recommend you get a table out there. Flowers everywhere - just really pretty. We started with the brussel sprouts and then had the gyros and Chicken Souvlaki. All the dishes were delicious and I would recommend all of them. We ended up taking half the gyros and souvlaki home and it was just as great the next day. The meat of the gyros was so tender. Our wine was also good - loved the reisling. The only annoyance I had was the 3% surcharge I saw on my bill afterwards. No explanation of what it was and I find this very annoying that more restaurants are doing this. What "extra" am I paying for?

Great ambience, Mike our server was very friendly and attentive. We had 2 kinds of salad... the chopped salad and gem lettuce , best old fashioned I had in a longtime , Moscow mule and scotch. Main course we had lamb chops, meatballs and baklava for dessert which was served with ice cream. Liked the food, drinks and decor, transported to greek islands . My espresso was lukewarm so the manager got me a fresh cuppa.Will be back soon!

Ambiance: 5/5 It is beautifully decorated inside and the heated outdoor seating was very romantic too. Service: 4/5 Food: 5/5 Overall, everything came hot, fresh, and delicious. Our favorites included the lamb gyros and lobster linguine. The gyros came as a DIY and it was super fun filling the fluffiest pita breads w all the ingredients. We also loved that they included the lobster head butter for the linguine (a move for the truly culinary headed). The walnut banana cake and Bougatsa were really yummy desserts too!

The food was great! And their lunch deal for crw '24 is a steal for sure cause I left so full! The interior is beautiful and is decorated the same as its sister restaurant Lyra which is also worth checking out. The menu items are basically the same. I chose the spinach mini pies for my 1st course and they are addicting. The star of the show in my opinion was the lamb gyro and fries! The lamb was so tender and flavorful and the pita was thick and soft. It was so filling! And whatever seasoning they put on their fries - amazing! To end my meal I chose the orange cake with greek yogurt ice cream which was just ok to me. I love greek food and I enjoyed my meal here!

Violi is the PERFECT place for date night, an evening out with friends or any celebratory occasion. Think sparklers, a dj spinning tunes, a small light show and attentive wait staff. It's a vibrant scene with music that makes you want to get out of your chair as the evening progresses and noteworthy menu, including a diverse wine selection, creative cocktails and classics. Cocktail selection: 5/5 Lamb Gyros: 5/5 Grilled Octopus: 4/5 Greek Salad: 5/5 Lamb chops: 5/5 Deconstructed baklava: 5/5 Favorites Highly recommend their Greek salad (the feta is the best I've had outside of Greece) and lamb chops. If you have any interest in something sweet, the deconstructed baklava will blow you away. I'm typically not a fan of baklava, but their creation includes praline ice cream and cracker thin phyllo dough. Worth Mentioning My only disappointment was asking for a little more tzatziki. I was charged $5 for the one delivered to the table (that wasn't completely used and could have been packed up) and $5 for another included in my take away. I'm not sure there's a good way to inform guests of the additional charge but we were somewhat blindsided. I highly recommend a reservation. It gets pretty crowded on weekends.

I ventured out here to meet fellow Yelper Latrice A. She discovered this place from an Instagram post and recommended that we meet here for lunch. As it was a Sunday, I thought going to Oakbrook might not be too bad. I typically do not go to the suburbs to dine due to the traffic but decided to go since I was meeting my girl. The restaurant is located in the mall, so I was not expecting to walk into a lovely outside area with heaters and a lovely décor. Latrice made the reservation and was not aware that it was for the patio, in March no less. We asked if they could turn up the heaters and later had to ask them to turn them down because those suckers got hot. Lunch was delightful. Latrice got a chicken gyros sandwich with fries that she said was pretty good. She also got The Karpouzi for her cocktail (Sipsmith gin, elderflower liqueur, watermelon, cucumber, lemon, oregano). She enjoyed it but mentioned that they had hooked up up with the alcohol as she was not expecting it to be as strong as it was....didn't seem to stop her from enjoying it I got the grilled meatballs with smoked yogurt, tomato, and mint. These were very good and the smoked yogurt was a nice complement to the meatballs. For my entrée I got a lamb burger, which was so so good! Our server, Violet A, was so adorable and accommodating. As Latrice mention in her review, Violet was able to speak on the restaurant with authority. She spoke about the various dishes and their preparations, and it was very nice to hear. A lot of servers have no clue what is on the menu of the places they are working, let alone able to speak on the preparation, so that was cool. As I have mentioned in multiple reviews, I am not big on desserts, but Violet and her explanation of the preparation of the Portokalopita (orange syrup cake, white chocolate mousse, Greek yogurt ice cream, crispy filo). Her description of the preparation and the taste sold me and Latrice, so we split an order. We both agreed that it was wonderful. Not sure how often I would come back out here, but it has been added to my list of places to revisit outside of the city. And if Violet A is still there, I want her to wait on me.
