(Last visited 10/21/2022.) Yelp tells me I've visited this place 7 times in the last 2 years and with good reason! Now I'll tell you why that's the case! Atmosphere/Appearance: Set right off the Berlin Turnpike in Newington just mere minutes from Bae's house is this gem! I'm not going to lie, it's quite easy to drive right past this place, but what got our attention were the lit-up "igloos" that they had for outdoor seating during COVID-19 post-lockdown when restaurants were only allowed to sit people outdoors. So now you know they have a pretty decent patio for the warmer months and the inside is fairly small, maybe 10 tables or so. It's a really chill atmosphere with an open kitchen concept. There are lots of big windows to let it natural light which is one of my favorite aspects of this place. Service: Now, truth-be-told, I've never actually eaten IN here. Lol. Bae and I have always gotten takeout. The staff here are always friendly though! Food: My go-to here is the Mediterranean chicken salad with gyro chicken. The salad is freaking huge for one. It comes with mixed greens, tomatoes, onions, olives, cranberries, walnuts and feta cheese. The ingredients are so simple and they work together so well. The chicken is savory, hearty and deliciously seasoned. I've also had their lamb gyro and it was fantastic. The meat was succulent, juicy and FULL of flavor. It was a great size and certainly filling. The gyro came with tomatoes, onions and great tzatziki sauce. Fantastic food. Value: The gyro was $11.00 and was totally worth it. You may want a small salad or something to go along with it though due to its heartiness. The Mediterranean salad is $14.00 and it costs $5.00 to add a portion of chicken, gyro chicken or gyro meat. Shrimp is $7.00. Not a bad deal at all considering the portions they serve. In conclusion, Mykonos will always be a go-to of mine if I'm coming home and just want to pick something up or just simply don't feel like cooking! Lol. I will make it here to actually dine-in someday! If you made it this far in the review, I appreciate you reading. Please do me a favor and head on over to "The Hungry Road" on YouTube and subscribe!

I have come to Mykonos bunch of times before, but never got around to writing a review, so making up for that now. This time I was here with family, there were 10 of us. Unfortunately, not everyone was on time, and the staff at Mykonos was super helpful and understanding, taking initial orders for kids, then apps for adults, and waiting to order the main meals. The attention from staff is fantastic, never had an empty cup of water once. Now the food, the main start of Mykonos. Honestly, I haven't had a bad dish here yet. First you get delicious bread with oil and roasted garlic to dip in. Then we started with a few apps: Spanakopita and Dolmathes. I had Shrimp Krasato for main meal. Shrimp with red wine, cherry peppers, feta, spinach, capers, tomato and garlic sauce. It was very flavorful, had a nice kick to it, and very filling. A few other dishes that our party ordered were Mixed Grill Plate (abundance of meats, that could feed a small army), Gyro Plate (comes with all the trimmings to make a delicious gyro), Lamb Youvetsi (roasted leg of lamb with tomatoes and orzo) and Scrod Plaki (baked scrod topped with roasted tomato, spinach and onions). Everyone came out full and satisfied. A few even had room for a slice of baklava.

A pathetic excuse for customer service and hospitality. Take your money elsewhere! After more than a decade of supporting this restaurant, we chose to plan an important family event here. We met with the owner and reviewed all of the details. There was some initial confusion over which area in the restaurant we'd be using, but we acquiesced and moved on with the planning. We were expecting 25 to 30 people for the event and asked to have the food served family style with a very limited menu to keep things easy for the kitchen and wait staff. The owner agreed and asked us to finalize the menu and send it to him. As requested, we sent a finalized menu to the owner with a final guest count of 32 (8 of which were children). Given the handful of additional guests who had responded since our meeting with the owner, we even added platters of food and more appetizers to the order. Despite our loyal patronage, our shared Greek heritage, and an awareness of the importance of the event, the owner sent a text less than one week from the event telling us that we needed to find somewhere else because he wasn't going to make enough money. The text from him is attached for your reference. Not only did the owner refuse our business, he lost all the money he was going to make on food and drinks..... AND he lost our patronage forever. 🧿 Γαμώ τη μάνα σου!

Great place as others have suggested. We went on a Wednesday evening. Not too busy. The staff were attentive and quick. We started with the shrimp mykonos with tomato and feta. Came out piping hot with pita. Rich tomato sauce with the shrimp perfectly cooked and feta on top. Sooo good. We also ordered the deya and olives and hummus. The pita was fresh and delicious. Perfect for dipping. The feta was drizzled with spices and served with pita. A feast in and of itself. After our apps came our dinners. We ordered a gyro platter and what was called Melitzana Gemisto, or a stuffed eggplant. The gyro came with a tzatziki side. The tzatziki itself was outstanding. The meat was well seasoned and yummy. But not a sandwich. Still very good. The stuffed eggplant was delicious served with a meat tomato sauce. Well grilled the eggplant was a nice compliment to the tomato sauce. I also ordered the lemon potatoes, which were a bit salty but went well with the eggplant which had very little salt. Overall, great several, good food and a wonderful night out. Will definitely ho back.

we tried this for first time we came from naugatuck .. we loved the food and our waiteee elenni was amazing ! the food came out perfectly timing i had made reservations when we walked in we were greeted by a dark hair girl did t catch her name , she said it would be about 510 minutes and I said well can we get a cocktail where we’re waiting and she said I don’t think it’s gonna be that long and she just walked away. She was pretty rude and then the bus girl and Eleni accommodated us, and let us sit in the quieter area where the booths are, but that girl upfront at the counter when you walk in was not very nice other than that we really enjoyed everything we had and we will definitely be back .. elenni was absolutely a love🧡🧡 I forgot to mention one of the thing, the pomegranate martinis and the drinks were very weak. Could’ve been a little better for the price, but maybe next time we’ll give it another chance.

This fine dining establishment is a feeling as much as it is a dining experience. If I opened my eyes in the middle of this restaurant I would think I'm somewhere in the Mediterranean Sea dining in a fine Cafe. The service was impeccable, with multiple waitresses coming to the table. The first server immediately brought me a glass of water with lemon, and a wonderful warm bread with dipping olive oil and fresh garlic for starters. I ordered stuffed grape leaves, and had a side of bruschetta over soft bread with crumbled parmesan cheese. Needless to say I took my time with all of it. By the time I left I knew I had fully engaged with the Mediterranean fine dining experience at a reasonable price. Mykonos Mediterranean is a must see and eat fine restaurant. Don't miss out!
