Acropolis - Evansville

Lunch meeting here on Friday. Well kept secret in Evansville. Food and service was outstanding. A hidden gem. Will be back the next time I'm in E'Ville.

The menu offered a selection of traditional Greek dishes as well as some American options. We opted for the lunch specials and ordered gyros, which were served with a salad and side for $7. The salads were generous portions of fresh cucumber, tomato, feta, onion, and Greek herbs - incredibly delicious and fresh. I also enjoyed a glass of house wine for $5.50, which turned out to be a lovely Kendall Jackson Chardonnay. Our entrees arrived promptly after we finished our salads, served hot on plates wrapped in red checkered paper. We selected tabouli salad, Greek fried potatoes, Greek string beans, and sautéed zucchini as our sides. Each side dish was fresh and flavorful, with the tabouli having a refreshing lemon taste and the potatoes being crispy. The Greek beans were slow-cooked with garlic and tomatoes, just like my grandmother used to make. We found the gyros to be slightly lacking in tzatziki sauce, so we requested extra which our server, Nick, promptly brought to us. Nick was attentive and friendly, keeping our water glasses filled and ensuring we had everything we needed. After our meal, we were able to enjoy the eclipse from their outdoor patio table, which also had wifi available. As someone with Greek heritage, I can confidently say that Acropolis serves the freshest and best Greek food in Indiana, all at a reasonable price.

It's nice to change it up now and then. Acropolis is a good choice for that. The food is consistently good. It's got an authentic Greek atmosphere.

The hostess had NO record of the Open Table reservation made three days before the dinner date. We showed her the confirmatory email on cell phone but it made no difference, as we sat, watched, and waited as others with reservations were directly seated.Food is good, and should be recognized as that. The restaurant featured tasty fresh food, ample servings, and a decent variety of menu offerings, albeit a minority of more authentic Greek dishes. The wine list offered a solid variety of choices at reasonable prices.It should be recognized that one should not expect anything near a fine dining experience.Why the recomendation? Acropolis is what it is, which would be a good not greatregional opportunity to sample tasty food

We enjoyed our dinner very much. This was a special occasion, my wife's birthday, and this was our first time at Acropolis. Our only problem was they didn't have us on their reservation list. I had received a confirmation from Open Table but evidently Acropolis didn't receive it. Fortunately for us there were tables available and we were seated immediately in a very nice spot upstairs
