Elleniko In Lecce

Everything was excellent, from appetizers to dessert. Friendly and attentive staff.

Great Pita gyros, available with chicken, pork or mixed and the classic Greek beer Mythos. Recommended

We went to Elleniko driven by the excellent reviews online and by the desire to taste a bit of Greece in the heart of Salento. The place is welcoming, tastefully decorated and with attention to details that recall the Greek atmosphere, even if with a slightly touristy touch. The staff is very kind and helpful, and the service was quick and efficient, despite the place being quite full. We tasted several typical dishes: moussaka, pita with various fillings and some traditional appetizers. All in all we ate well: the portions are generous, the ingredients fresh and well cooked. Having said that, it must be admitted that the experience, although pleasant, is not really comparable to eating in Greece. It's a bit like going to Greece and eating in an Italian restaurant: good, but with that something missing. The same goes here. Overall, Elleniko is a great place for those who want to approach Greek cuisine without leaving Lecce. Don't expect absolute perfection, but a good dinner, yes, with flavors that recall, even if they don't entirely replicate, Greek authenticity.

Fantastic dinner! We started with the house appetizer, a generous and tasty mix of Greek specialties: tzatziki, feta, olives and other delicious tastings, all fresh and well presented. For the first course, we chose a traditional dish that really immersed us in the flavors of the Mediterranean. The second course, a fried fish, was one of the highlights of the evening: crunchy, dry, tasty and with very fresh fish. We concluded with a typical dessert, fragrant and perfectly balanced. Very kind service and welcoming atmosphere. A corner of Greece that will be difficult to stay away from!

You eat very well at Elleniko. Absolutely recommended!

Excellent restaurant with wide choice of Greek foods

Great food and beautiful atmosphere!

dinner with friends, a welcoming environment, and Greek food that absolutely doesn't make you regret holidays in Parga or Thessaloniki.

We went to this place because they advertised the "all you can eat" formula for lunch - once there, a joke because all the choice was reduced to the pita, and of these only 4 options were all very similar - note that the cost in Latin is €6 per pita, in the all you can eat if you can call it that you pay €13 per person. According to the waitress, you cannot eat more than one pita per person as you are full. Everything else on the menu was not included. However, we took an appetizer for two and two pitas - really questionable quality. Chicken bones inside savory croissants and meat with a bad aftertaste. I would like to point out that I know Greek cuisine which I have had the opportunity to eat a lot abroad.

Excellent food, courteous and kind staff, especially the girl with glasses who offered us excellent advice (Lamb in white wine)
