Der Grieche zum Staufenplatz in Düsseldorf

A wonderful evening. Very friendly hosts!

My absolute favorite Greek restaurant. Extremely hospitable, attentive, and warm. The cuisine is diverse and always fresh – with a strong standard menu and regularly changing daily specials. Special requests are, of course, accommodated. They also have a very good, well-balanced wine selection. Here you experience genuine Greek hospitality. Highly recommended.

Beliebtes Restaurant mit klassisch griechischer Küche und guter Weinauswahl. Aufmerksames Personal

Everything was wonderful. We got there not even thinking about making a reservation, which we're running into a lot here in Germany, and despite being completely booked for the evening they sat us anyways. They asked if we could eat in 50 minutes and we were happy to do so. We ended up staying a little longer and throughout the meal I never felt rushed. We had a couple nice appetizers, our meals, and still had time for dessert. The food is quite flavorful and I was happy to see moussaka on the menu, which was delicious. If I had to complain about anything, it would be that I'm used to eating Greek food with pita not sliced baguette, but I'm not Greek nor have I ever been to Greece, so maybe this is something they do at other restaurants. Definitely not a deal breaker because the baguette was also very good. I would certainly go back. Enjoy!

We held our Christmas party here this year. The appetizers were so delicious that I was already full after just one. The wine selection is fantastic! The main course was also highly recommended. I had the vegetarian moussaka. The dessert was also very tasty. There was a kind of pudding, Greek yogurt, and cake. I'll probably come back again for a private dinner. Highly recommended!

Excellent food, table reservation worked out perfectly, friendly service. Would gladly come again.

Very friendly service, very hospitable, food was also good and tasty.

The best Greek restaurant I've ever visited. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

Delicious food. Lovely atmosphere. Very friendly and attentive team.

We've found our favorite Greek restaurant in Düsseldorf! We're in Düsseldorf for business once or twice a month, and every time we treat ourselves to a delicious meal at this restaurant. Everything is just perfect, from the tasty food to the super friendly team. The fact that it's always packed shows that others appreciate it too. We're already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you for always having a spot for us! Warmest regards, Mona and Thomas 😊 P.S.: It would be fantastic if you brought back the little fried pepperoni. They are soooooo delicious 😋.

Best Greek restaurant in Düsseldorf!

Great Greek food! Nice atmosphere and superb service! Thank you!

Fantastic Greek restaurant! The food is delicious. Stylish atmosphere! The service is incredibly friendly, fast, and attentive, and they even offer plenty of ouzo. 👍🏻👍🏻

Excellent quality, unfortunately it was a bit noisy, but that's because the venue was very crowded and fully booked. Highly recommended.

We were in the area on a whim. We got a table even though the place was packed. The service was incredibly friendly. The food was absolutely top-notch. I'd come back again just for the gyros.

The food was very good (regular menu), the service was friendly and attentive, I'd gladly come again.

Unbeatable value for money. High-quality food and drinks, a pleasant atmosphere, and outstanding, super friendly, and consistently reliable service ensure that you always feel comfortable, which is why the restaurant is always full.

For me, this is the best Greek restaurant I've ever had the pleasure of visiting. The four of us even came all the way from Essen and we'll definitely be back. The food is top-notch, the location is perfect, and the owner clearly prioritizes customer service. Unbeatable!

Everything was perfect Would definitely come again

Very delicious, authentic Greek cuisine.

The food could be better seasoned. Very loud.

The best in Staufenplatz! As always everything is super delicious & the staff is the nicest in Düsseldorf. 10/10 recommend

Delicious gyros and very friendly staff. We felt very comfortable and would love to come back.

RESERVE THIS PLACE, OR RISK DISAPPOINTMENT! It’s always full! I really love gourmet and gastronomical meals and was intrigued at the very high score this Greek restaurant had on Google. Was it merited or not? Was it just typical Greek food or something special. I can honestly say that the restaurant deserves its high score and I will happily return with friends. The service was very friendly, very fast and professional, the food was COPIOUS and REALLY DELICIOUS and the price very reasonable considering the quality and authenticity of the food we enjoyed. We are already looking forward to our next meal there.

A Greek restaurant with a difference. Modern and contemporary decor. Excellent and friendly service and delicious, modern interpretations of Greek dishes. Well worth a visit.

Amazing food, super friendly service, incredibly welcoming – you feel right at home! Absolutely fantastic!

It was a lovely evening! This was my third time there. The staff was friendly and attentive. The food came super quickly and was, as always, very good. Highly recommended! 😋

Top Greek restaurant in Düsseldorf

Delicious dishes, friendly staff, good location

There's not much to say: the food was perfect, the service was friendly, fast, and charming. Prices were a bit high, but we felt they were more than reasonable for the quality and portion size. We'd be happy to come back. Note on parking: the restaurant is right on the street in front of a bus stop, so there's no parking there. However, there's a huge open space for cars diagonally across the street, just a 5-minute walk away.

We spontaneously visited on a Saturday and got a table for two. The service was super attentive and friendly from the start. We were preceded by a bread basket with olives. The food arrived quite quickly and was truly delicious. We can recommend the restaurant.

Everything's just right at this Greek restaurant. The ambiance, staff, and food are absolutely recommendable. And they've been for many years.

Very friendly staff, beautiful location. Highly recommended.

This place was great! I was pleasantly surprised by the delicious food and reasonable prices. The service was also excellent. I highly recommend this place and would definitely return.

I would give it 10 stars if that were possible. Everything just fits perfectly here. I was in Düsseldorf on business with colleagues when we stumbled upon this restaurant by chance. We liked it so much that we came back a second time. The service is incredibly friendly, you're welcomed with open arms, and you don't want for anything. The food is truly excellent, and everyone will be satisfied. Each guest receives bread with olives, the finest olive oil, and tzatiki. Our waiter was Davide, who looked after us very well. If you have the chance, definitely stop by.

Highly recommended restaurant. Delicious food, cute and well-kept venue, and very friendly and helpful staff!

It was my very first time eating there and I have to say it was absolutely delicious. I can only recommend it. It was very friendly and very nice. 👍

Simply delicious if you want Greek food. Easy to reach, as the restaurant is right next to the U73 stop.

Excellent and delicious food and the best service ever

The price and quality are right here! The restaurant is cozy and comfortable. They've omitted Greek murals, etc. – I like that. The service is friendly and quick, despite a full house. The food is very tasty and portions are generous, so no one goes hungry. Located on a main road, parking can be difficult at times. It's easily accessible by public transport, as there's a bus stop across the street.

Absolutely delicious! Rosé with coffee is simply a dream! Great service!

Very delicious food! I'm very satisfied! Keep up the good work!

We went as a large group and were very pleased. The food was delicious, and in addition to ouzo, they also had Beylerbeyi rakı. They were also very helpful with the cake service; I highly recommend it.

A truly beautiful restaurant with absolutely fantastic food. I don't think I've had such delicious gyros in a long time. The side dishes and appetizers we had were also delicious. The service was engaging and very friendly. Everything was just right here. We'll definitely be back.

A bit expensive, but very tasty!

A great atmosphere, friendly service, and excellent food. We'll be back!! Highly recommended!

Four of us ate there yesterday – exactly what you imagine a successful evening to be. Delicious food and extremely friendly staff in a wonderful atmosphere. If the staff had been given 6 stars, we would have given them that too. Despite the restaurant being very busy, everything was perfectly organized. We would definitely recommend it anytime.

Very friendly service and very good food in a lovely atmosphere.

Great atmosphere, truly delicious food, and very friendly staff. We came with 14 people at short notice, and they made everything possible. Top 👍🏼

We used to go to this restaurant quite often because we were always impressed by the food and the friendly staff. Then I once had baked gyro in Metaxa sauce, which was not tasty at all. It wasn't Metaxa sauce, but some kind of cream sauce, and in my opinion, you can't just serve something like that. If a sauce isn't available, you should say so. That annoyed me, and we didn't come back for a while. When we returned, there was suddenly a completely new staff there—not a problem in itself, and they were friendly. I ordered beef fillet, medium. However, I got it bleu: lightly cooked on the outside, completely raw and ice-cold on the inside. I returned it and had to wait about ten minutes while my companion ate alone. I would have expected an apology or a small gesture like a free coffee. When the meat came back, it wasn't medium, but well done. Because of the good quality, it was still edible – but again: no apology whatsoever. I ordered the same dish again, this time "medium well" just in case. They served two pieces of different sizes. The larger one was completely raw and cold inside, while the smaller one was cooked thoroughly. I complained again. When the dish came back, the larger piece was perfectly cooked this time – but the smaller one was completely cooked. Again: no apology, and the waiter in charge, while not rude, was not friendly either. The meat quality was very good every time. But at these prices, the cooking should be reliable, and you should feel taken seriously as a guest. It might happen once – no problem. But to have the same dish twice in a row, both times without an apology, is truly disappointing.

Greek restaurant with small outside seating area and very large inner space. The inside has high ceiling and a modern, clean design. Menu card consists of greek classics and some specials and are all very reasonably priced (including drinks). The service was fast and mostly attentative (had to order drinks twice as first time it was forgotten). Food was tasty, portions large (main course was enough). Probably the reason why it was very busy already late afternoon/ early evening. I would come again, a clear recommendation.

A very nice restaurant with an excellent menu and a very good selection of drinks. I liked that they offered not only Greek wines, but also wines like Pinot Gris and Sauvignon Blanc. The food was very tasty and served quickly. My only criticism was that neither the garlic bread nor the tzatziki tasted of garlic. I appreciate that not everything tastes completely garlicky, but the garlic bread and tzatziki should at least taste a little garlicky. Overall, I would recommend the restaurant, but I won't be coming back, as that one criticism bothered me too much.

'The Greek' lives up to its name. Excellent food, international and excellent drinks. Very pleasant atmosphere. Staff courteous and flexible. We'll be happy to return. Advance reservations are recommended.

Great location, friendly staff, very attentive, good food. Even those with limited food can eat a child's portion. Very good. Very nice, cozy sun terrace. We were there with 13 people, and everyone was satisfied.

Spontaneous visit: Very friendly service, bread with dip and Kalamata olives were offered as a starter without asking, great! The food is delicious and a whole lot more refined than at the Greek snack bar around the corner. Highly recommended!

You'll truly be pampered here. The service is fantastic. The food was exceptional, and the portions were generous. It tasted truly delicious and was beautifully presented, every single plate and all the appetizers. At the end, we were surprised with cake—it was truly beyond words, it was so fantastic. We're already looking forward to the next time.

We visited this wonderful Greek restaurant today and I'm absolutely thrilled! The food was fresh, authentic, and incredibly delicious. A special shout-out goes to our waiter, Rafail. He was attentive, warm, and always had a smile on his face. You could tell he was passionate about his job and made you feel completely at home. The atmosphere was cozy and it felt a bit like being on vacation. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend the restaurant! 💙

There were six of us. Today (July 29th) at 12:15 p.m. we ate here for the first time and... It was absolutely delicious! We received a friendly welcome, and all the tables were invitingly set. We were greeted with fresh bread and olives (salt, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar were available on all tables). Even the children's special requests were taken into account when ordering. The food came incredibly quickly, everything was fresh, and tasted amazing! The birthday girl even got a piece of cake. Highly recommended.

Very tasty 😋 Great service. The waiter was in a good mood, nice, and friendly. The food was great. My favorite was the sardines and fried chili. The wine was delicious.

This is my third time there, and I'm very satisfied. The food is excellent, and the service is very friendly and attentive. When the weather's nice, you can sit and eat in the garden. I'll be back!

Best restaurant of my life. The meat is incredibly good and seasoned to perfection.

So, that's a high-level nitpicking. I thought the gyros was cold, my girlfriend didn't 😉 but whatever, it was very tasty, and I could have said so. In fact, everything was delicious. Very friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Highly recommended, you should definitely go there sometime. We'll be going again. My son recommended it to me. Great 😋😃

Card payments accepted! Beautiful, open-plan restaurant with a small courtyard. There are also some seats facing the street. The team is dedicated and takes really good care of their customers, including the ouzo nightcap. The real highlight, however, is the menu, which primarily features classic Greek dishes. There's nothing watered down by hamburgers and the like. The portions are ideal, so bring an appetite. A variety of wines and other spirits can be ordered to complement the food.

Attentive service. Solid, delicious food.

Very tasty Greek food, and a great selection of dishes. The owner makes every guest feel special. Keep an eye for their Greek burgers on the lunch menu. The best burger you will get in the area!

Very pleasant atmosphere, delicious food, attentive waiters; and the price was right, too. We'd love to come back.....

A lot of things are homemade here, and you can taste it. We'd love to come back. It was also great that our lovely poodle and her lovely Aussie friend were welcome. We'd love to come back.

A great restaurant with very friendly and polite service staff and of course delicious food

Very good Greek restaurant, professional and delicious. Mid-range prices. Very good quality.

Very tasty Greek dishes. A generous grilled plate with excellent and tasty meat (gyro, skewers, minced meat) and good side dishes. To start, fresh bread with black olives and a delicious dip. To finish, a very good ouzo. We sat outside by the street. Inside, a very attractive, modern ambiance. Top-notch restrooms. And most importantly: dedicated, friendly staff. We'd be happy to come back.

We were there at the end of May to meet up with some former colleagues. The food was once again very good, and the portions were generous. The service was very friendly and attentive. The only downside is the drink prices! I find €3.90 for a 0.2 liter Coke outrageous! A 0.4 liter Coke costs €5.50. Where's the balance? So, tip: order large soft drinks!

Friendly waiter, lovely atmosphere, delicious food, and reasonable prices. Highly recommended! One of the best Greek restaurants in all of Düsseldorf.

Delicious food, good service. But it was very loud.

Great food, very friendly service

Authentic Greece in the heart of Düsseldorf – highly recommended! A true gem on Staufenplatz! This Greek restaurant not only offers fantastic food, but also an atmosphere that immediately transports you to Greece. Warm, informal, and absolutely authentic – this is exactly what you imagine a perfect evening at a Greek restaurant to be. The dishes are consistently excellent: From classic souvlaki to tender saddle of lamb to incredibly fresh mezedes – everything was prepared with love and perfectly seasoned. We particularly highlight the grilled feta and the homemade tzatziki – a dream! The service is attentive, friendly, and pleasantly unobtrusive. You immediately feel welcome and in good hands. Even special requests were met with a smile. The value for money is absolutely spot on – here you get quality and genuine hospitality at fair prices. In conclusion: If you're looking for honest, Greek cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere, you should definitely visit the Greek restaurant on Staufenplatz. A place to feel good, enjoy, and come back!

A truly great Greek restaurant. This is a great place for larger groups, such as birthday parties, as the restaurant offers plenty of space. It's very stylish and beautifully decorated, and the food is delicious!

Came here for a birthday dinner. The food was authentic and delicious. The service was great, we were nicely served by a friendly young man. He even drank with us ouzo while wishing the best for the birthday person ☺️ that was really nice! The place is clean all over, elegant, not loud, enough space on the table for the meals. Beautiful experience, we will come back 😉

Very good food with very friendly service pleasant atmosphere

Unreservedly recommended. Delicious food in a stylish setting with excellent service! Discovered by chance and now saved for future visits!

Reservations are recommended. A friendly welcome. Plenty of space in the restaurant. Very fast service. Delicious food and a wide selection of drinks at a fair price. Parking is free at the P&R lot 4 minutes away. Best time: 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

Good food, friendly service staff.

Absolutely. Very good service, great food, would gladly go again.

Very good food. Sometimes very noisy, but the price/performance ratio is good.

The food was good, from the lunch menu. Service was very friendly. Unfortunately, I didn't like the ambiance. I felt like I was sitting in a cafeteria. That's my opinion; I'm sure there are other opinions.

It was my second time there and I can recommend the place!

Very very tasty fresh food. The service was first class. We'd love to come back.

Food is great, fresh and good. Service attentive. What we found difficult at times was the audience.

Great food and very nice staff.

Very tasty fresh food, price performance also very good. Very nice large restaurant also perfect for children. Gladly again ☺️

We liked it a lot. The service was very friendly and the food was delicious.

Great Greek restaurant on Staufenplatz. Solid atmosphere, slightly higher (but reasonable) prices, super-tasty food, top service

I had a gyro plate and it was really delicious. The gyro was juicy and was grilled extremely well. 😁👍🏻

We went for tsipouro and were blown away by the many choices of appetizers. The owner, Makis, did everything he could to ensure that we never forget what the company tasted.

Super delicious food, friendly and courteous service. We enjoyed being there

You can eat really delicious food here in the old building charm. The only thing you have to say about the starter is: too much beetroot tartare 🙈 But it was really tasty. There was goat cheese as a starter. This is served caramelized on arugula and beetroot tartare. (9€) For the main course my wife had the Achilles plate for €22. There you could find gyros, suvlaki skewers, meat rolls, fries and salad with tzatziki. I had the Kaöbskottelet. This was delicious with a herb garlic butter, caramelized onions, mashed potatoes and salad. Also very tasty for €26. The Schuhmacher Alt (0.5 for €5.50) and the non-alcoholic Krombacher Weizen (0.5 for €5.50) also tasted very good. Before the meal there was free bread, which is becoming increasingly rare these days. Plus a few olives and a yogurt-mint-lemon cream that was really tasty and fresh. A visit is recommended. Rafail served us wonderfully. And he can believe me when I say: The beetroot was really tasty 🤪

My brother celebrated his big birthday. With almost 30 guests, we had great all-round support and very good service. The food was great, so you could prepare meat in any form very well. The starters were great 🔝. The place is very chic and cozy. It is really highly recommended 👏 Thank you and a big shout out to the great staff ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very good ! The knuckle is enough for two people!

We sat outside in the wonderful weather and ate various dishes. Everything was delicious and the service was very happy and attentive.

No is very expensive and the supposed garlic bread was fried baguette fried in oil more oil than bread

A very nice and tasty Greek restaurant. The staff is super accommodating and friendly. We were particularly impressed by the wine list. We felt very comfortable and would love to come back :)
