First time dining here. Greek salad/ dressing delicious. Not sure if there was any eggplant in the moussaka? Why play rock music in Greek restaurant? Service was good, friendly staff. Will eat here again. Great Greek menu offerings.
Acropolis Greek Taverna - Ybor CityResponded on 11 November 2024
Thank you for sharing your experience, Thomas! Happy to confirm that our moussaka does indeed have eggplant. Being in Ybor City, we embrace the area’s unique vibe with a mix of music, blending Greek/Mediterranean tunes with a variety of genres to keep things lively and reflective of our community. Great to hear you enjoyed the salad and had friendly service. We look forward to welcoming you back!

Fun time…had a belly dancer and other Greek celebrations going on (Sat night). Greek Salad w/Gyro meat was great and loved the sampler app platter and Dolmades. Espresso Martini amazing. Sangria too sweet.

The food and service was awesome! We love Greek food and have been wanting to try for a while not even know they have a live dancer, dance lines, breaking of plates and throwig napkins in the air. Definitely a really fun atmosphere. We also got 2 for 1 sangrias and margaritas. Great deal and food was delicious. Will definitely be back!

We enjoyed the belly dancing and the food was good. It was very warm but may be because we were close the entrance and the door was open a little bit from people walking in and out. One of our favorite places to chill, eat, and people watch. Good location on the strip.
Acropolis Greek Taverna - Ybor CityResponded on 12 August 2024
Glad to hear you enjoyed the belly dancing and the food! We appreciate your feedback about the warmth near the entrance—we’ll look into it to make sure everyone stays comfortable. Thanks for making us one of your favorite spots to relax and people-watch!
