The worst Greek restaurant l have ever been to and it’s not even due to the fact that it was not authentic. Pork meat on the skewers (souvlaki) was probably pre-cooked so that it takes less time to make them ready. As a result the meat was so dry and hard that it was difficult to stick it on the fork, not to mention to chew it. It was like eating cubes of wood.

Read moreFrom all the Greek restaurants that I have been to here in Switzerland, this one is by far the best. A friend of mine recommended it and last Sunday I drove over an hour from Zurich to go have dinner there. I tried the Melitzana and Zucchini balls as appetizers and they were both delicious.

The family that runs the restaurant is also very friendly and polite. As a Greek, I highly recommend Taverna Thessaloniki to everyone that wants to enjoy authentic Greek cuisine in a beautiful and quite location. I wll definitely...
