Spyros Metaxas — Restaurant in Vilnius

My recent visit to Spyros Metaxas in Vilnius, Lithuania, left me with a distinct sense of dissatisfaction, particularly concerning their gyro. As a staple of Greek cuisine, one expects a certain standard of authenticity and flavor, neither of which were met during my meal.

The most striking issue was the gyro itself. It was noticeably under-filled, lacking the generous proportions one anticipates from such a dish. More critically, it suffered from a complete lack of structural integrity; the contents seemed to spill out with every attempt to hold it, making for a messy and frustrating eating experience. Beyond these tactile disappointments, the gyro was remarkably flavorless. For what is touted as authentic Greek cuisine, the complete absence of the vibrant, savory notes characteristic of a well-prepared gyro was baffling. Ironically, the accompanying side of fries possessed more discernible flavor than the main event.

1 waitress for a gazillions of venturer . No beers . There are no dishes as exposed on the board at the entrance. She says , textually:" That's just as an example, but we don't actually make it " :) People smoking shish next to you while you're eating (that's what they call it shish .. shisha, right ?). 17/19 euros a pita when in Warsaw, for example, is like 8 euros in Fabrika Norblina. 5 euros in Salerno (Italy).

I do not suggest . Below the...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Wonderful Greek Dining Experience!

We had an amazing experience at this lovely Greek restaurant. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and authentic. The food was absolutely delicious — I had the ancient pita, which was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. My wife ordered the chicken souvlaki, and it was perfectly grilled, tender, and seasoned just right.

A special shoutout to Lidia, our waitress, who made our evening even more enjoyable. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. Her warm and genuine service really stood out and made us feel like valued guests.

Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great Greek food and top-notch...
