Filoxenia in Markkleeberg

It was very cool to celebrate youth consecration there

In principle it's a nice atmosphere, but you shouldn't sit near the bowling alley if you want to be comfortable. Lots of staff, but the waiting time for the first drink was long, but that may have been due to the event in the house. However, this is no excuse for cold coffee or forgotten drinks. Also, the double espresso was more of a regular coffee. We were all very happy with the starters. The lamb shank was very good. But the broad beans and the Metaxa sauce were not at all what you expected.

Highly recommended, first bowling and then a good meal.

A Greek place to feel good and linger.

I would like to give Filoxenia my recommendation! After registering by phone at short notice, we got a table for 6 people (+ our little dog 🐕). We were welcomed by a very nice waitress and the boss himself. The selection on the menu is typically Greek cuisine. The food itself was much better than what I'm used to at similar places!!! The "special plate" I chose consisted of several types of meat, each of which was very tasty and, above all, juicy! My five companions were also very satisfied with their selected dishes. We decided to definitely visit Filoxenia again during our week-long vacation!

Very tasty food Super friendly staff

Best time, the food was very tasty, The staff were all lovely and nice

We've known this restaurant for years, but now the owner has changed and the staff is new. We got a table for two without booking. The menu is new and the prices have gone up. The menu is as clear as the portions. Unfortunately, everything was very unseasoned. Of course, there's salt and pepper on the table, but that's not the point. We weren't satisfied and unfortunately won't be coming back. Unfortunately, there wasn't even any music.

We enjoyed staying at Filoxenia and were already well-respected regulars and now we wanted to get a new look after the change of operator. Yes, we received a very friendly welcome, but unfortunately we were given a table in the large hall that was not heated and only slowly became warmer as the number of guests increased. Everything was fine, I told myself there could be worse things and I read through the menu with full anticipation and noticed that the prices had only been adjusted slightly. After the round of ouzo, we were allowed to order our drinks after about 15 minutes. We then immediately ordered our appetizers and food. Two starters (tzatziki and garlic bread) were good, then we chose 4 main courses: leg of lamb with green beans, spaghetti with gyros in metaxa sauce, steak with metaxa sauce and gyro plate... We have already noticed with the delivery of drinks that the waiters were very disorganized in finding the tables where the drinks should go. This continued during the meal so that the food was tasty but the portions didn't match the price. Plus, my daughter's food came about 10 minutes later than ours. Her steak plate had a total of seven pieces of meat and the amount of meat on the gyro plate was no longer a rule of thumb, which wasn't enough for my adult son. The other two dishes were fine. When we received feedback about the food, the waiter laughed it off and said that we were the first to complain about the food. At the end we had to wait another 25 minutes until we could pay, despite having asked three times for the bill. For us, if nothing changes, it would be the last time there...

Unfortunately our visit to this restaurant was a disappointment. The food was far too little for the price, and one of our plates only arrived 10 minutes after the others. We also had to wait a full 25 minutes for the bill. The employees seemed overwhelmed, had no overview and were visibly confused. When we tried to address our concerns directly on site, they were not addressed - instead we were portrayed as the culprits. We were also deliberately made to wait until we could finally pay. The service was much better under the previous owner and the portions were also reasonable. It's a shame that the quality has deteriorated so much.

Went to eat at Filoxenia today. New owner, and you could definitely notice the difference. New prices 😟, smaller portions 🫢, and no more UR-KROSTITZER 🍺. It was better under the old owner.

Very inconspicuous from the outside. Interior super comfortable, top service and outstanding cuisine! I'd love to come back!

Nice resturag, the food is delicious. The service is very friendly.

We finally tested it yesterday and I have to say it was fantastic! The food was delicious and plentiful. The service was super friendly and quick! We felt very comfortable and will definitely come back! Keep it up 😉

We ate there again yesterday because, in our opinion, it is the best Greek restaurant in Markkleeberg. It seems the chef has changed. Unfortunately, the taste and the food deteriorated a lot as a result. The fries were soggy and unsalted, the Metaxa sauce tasted more like cream than anything else, the gyros pieces were huge... etc. Maybe the chef will take note of this criticism. But we probably won't eat there again. Too bad.

Very friendly staff. Food very good and great price.

A clear recommendation! I don't usually take the time to write reviews, but this time I would like to share my opinion. I've been here several times to spend a nice evening with my family and have something delicious to eat. You can tell that there has been a change of operator. There were minor teething problems in the first few days, but these were quickly resolved and everything is running smoothly now. The staff is friendly, polite and attentive - Alex in particular will be remembered positively. The service is quick, the food is delicious, and the portions are just right - you'll definitely be full. The price-performance ratio is also right: a lamb dish with side dishes and salad for under €25 is really fair. Anyone who complains about the prices probably hasn't shopped for a long time. The large hall, which can be booked exclusively for celebrations, is particularly practical. There is also a bowling alley – and at very reasonable prices. Reservations are definitely recommended, especially on Fridays and Saturdays as the restaurant is busy. I can only recommend this restaurant and wish the new operators much success – keep it up!

There was a change of ownership and a significantly shortened card. Hopefully the Filoxenia will stay as good as it has in recent years, we will test it :-)

A nice place to taste the food and enjoy the ear. Lots of different food, lots of different drinks, staff super friendly. What do you want to make someone's evening beautiful? Great, great, great

Unfortunately the operator or the staff has obviously changed. This used to be an absolute insider tip. Large portions, reasonable prices, very good food, friendly and fast service - perfect. Now after the change (in the new year) small portions, high prices (like in downtown Leipzig), good food (but far too little), forgetful and slow service (but friendly). Unfortunately no longer recommended. There's actually no reason to come back here anymore.

Food was very tasty and the service was very nice and very friendly.

Was okay 3/5. Unfortunately the gyros weren't crispy enough. Ouzo too warm.

This was our second time here. Excellent service, very tasty food. Completely satisfied. Definitely coming back

Good ambience, delicious food, typical Greek. Waiting time for food was 2 hours. .Service poor.

Everything is absolutely delicious

This is the best greek restaurant! from the service and the interior! And the food was everything you could’ve asked for, excellent and exquisite

The best Greek, simply excellent! Always happy🫠

The best Greek there is, very good service, food very tasty, always happy.

A typical Greek. The portions are not as big or filling as elsewhere. The taste is typical like any Greek. There was nothing extraordinarily great that I would remember now why I absolutely had to come back. The ambience was quite cool and the staff was friendly and mostly considerate.

Very tasty food, super courteous service, everything was super, highly recommended

We had dinner with 16 people. The food is, typically Greek, good. However, the service is subpar. You are constantly ignored and when the wrong dish was served the waiter was very annoyed. We will make reservations somewhere else for a larger celebration in the future. EDIT: Things are getting worse. Both the quality and the size decrease significantly. That was the last time!

The staff is consistently very friendly and you feel very comfortable as a guest. The food is delicious and despite there being a lot of guests, you don't have to wait long.

Great Greek, very attentive staff, great location and delicious food. Everything at affordable prices.

Even though I arrived at the restaurant 20 minutes before opening time, I received a warm welcome. My request to combine two starters into one was also taken into account. But that was the end of the line. The kitchen and therefore the food were pot. However, reordering required Drinks with 3 service staff and 6 occupied tables up to 6 attempts. I'm now 63 and it was the first Greek where I didn't get a single ouzo on the house. (While the table next door was already offered Dr. 2.) It's a shame, I was looking forward to the evening.

Great restaurant. Is worth a visit.

Nice restaurant, good Greek food at moderate prices and friendly staff.

Had dinner again last night, as always Excellent out of 10 points, there are 12 with 🌟 stars summer in the beer garden

Very good food, very friendly service, great ambience Heart, what more could you want. Spent a very nice birthday at Filoxenia. Thank you very much

Always worth a visit. The food tastes great and the service staff is great. Especially Sakis and his wife 😀

Unfortunately we weren't thrilled with either the food or the restaurant. Too bad

Super nice restaurant, especially in the back area it's so cozy. The food was really tasty and the staff was very friendly. We'll definitely be back :)

Super good Greek food, with very good and friendly service. One of my favorite restaurants in Leipzig

Opening times are wrong...embarrassing in 2024

Always beautiful. Delicious food, good prices and great service.

The food is super tasty, the employees are very nice and attentive. We are happy to recommend the restaurant “Filoxenia”.

Cozy 🇬🇷 with very tasty food and very good service. We would love to come back 👍🇬🇷🙋‍♀️🙋🏻‍♂️

The price-performance ratio is okay and the food is tasty. The guest room is not ideal, but that is more due to the structure. If you don't come as a larger group, the table offer might be better... Since we can't be counted among the regular guests, that may explain the impression we got that it was a bit neglected at times. But when the service was at our table, he tried to serve us well, no matter which young man was trying to get our table.

Delicious food, nice outdoor seating, nice service and the price/performance ratio is good. Jens

We were a somewhat larger group for a birthday dinner. The food was typically Greek and delicious. Unfortunately, the service negatively overshadowed the food. We were ignored for a long time and had to wait a total of over 1.5 hours for the food. The reason for this was that 2 guests in the group arrived 10 minutes late. In addition, our questions were responded to in a very annoyed manner. Unfortunately, both of the meals I ordered contained milk and this was not marked as an allergen on the menu - really bad for milk allergy sufferers. The food was then replaced with another. Last but not least, the first dish was found on the bill, which we objected to and then received the corrected bill without any apology or anything else. All in all, it's a shame, as the food really wasn't bad.

Es ist immer wieder schön. Das Essen schmeckt, es ist eine angenehme Atmosphäre und man fühlt sich willkommen. Wir kommen seit Jahren....

We always enjoy going there. Food delicious, service friendly, ouzo tastes good.

Very pleasant atmosphere. Food was really good and service was very attentive... Ouzo before and after a meal, which used to be common in Greek restaurants, is now rare... I was very pleasantly surprised

We were more than satisfied. The food and service is great. We'd love to come back. It is important to reserve.

Always super friendly service and the food is absolutely fantastic 👍🏻 again at any time 👍🏻👍🏻

Everything was great, I can only recommend it.

Very nice service 👍 😁☺️ We would also give it 10 stars. The food was also great value for money. We really enjoyed it and can only recommend the restaurant! ☺️

Beautiful beer garden with a “sea view” 😄, very friendly staff, the food was excellent. Will come back.

Very friendly and flexible staff, the food was great and the atmosphere was fantastic. I would happily recommend the restaurant!

Very friendly, great food and just really beautiful there 😊😊

Very nice restaurant, food and service top. We have been guests for several years. Always happy... highly recommended.

Great restaurant with very good food at completely acceptable prices. The ambience invites you to linger, you are warmly welcomed and immediately feel at home. Our waiter Sakis(?), I apologize if that's not correct, is a funny and easy-going guy. It may have benefited us that my two companions come to the house more often, but I have no doubt that warmth and hospitality are always very popular there. Clear recommendation from me and see you soon.

Everything is okay and the toilet is always very clean

We ate here three times in a week's vacation. The food is delicious, the staff is super friendly. Always happy.

Nice place, friendly service, good food.

The food was great. The staff was attentive. I go here more often.

Very good food and always friendly staff. We'd love to come back. We can only report good things.

Dirty shop 8:45 p.m. Kitchen closed according to Google 10:30 p.m. then they should change it

It's always a good idea to eat there. I had nothing but good moments in this restaurant with my sweetheart and their wonderful families. Really a good decision!

Reserved? Question.. No, then the lady turns around and leaves you standing there stupidly... The outside area wasn't opened, but it was probably well attended, no card payment possible, why???? (It was also right at the entrance) that's zero stars!!!

Very friendly service, very good cuisine with a TOP price-performance ratio. Particularly delicious for us: grilled salmon

Very friendly service and the food was great

Delicious food and super nice service Always happy

Very nice and super tasty. Would love to go back and try it out.

We have chosen this location as our favorite restaurant for years. We now belong to the “family” You can forget how to cook with the great food

Sehr schönes griechisches Restaurant, leckeres Essen, kurze Wartezeiten, freundliche Bedienung. Wir kommen wieder!

Super delicious food, staff very nice and attentive, cozy, it's best to order in advance because it's busy, especially on weekends. Only recommended

For a big birthday celebration, first went bowling inside the house and after two hours of physical exercise went to dinner in the large hall. Service okay, could or could have been better, food was excellent, toilets okay, rooms wonderful ambience. I don't know if we'll come back again, but I'll recommend it.

Great food and very friendly staff 👍👍👍

My niece celebrated her 18th birthday there. Food was very tasty and the service was good too.

Very tasty Greek food! Also great service and child-friendly employees! 😃

The food was mega. The waiting time was underground!!!!

The food is always tasty, the price-performance ratio is absolutely right, the staff is friendly, and booking a table is recommended

We were there for dinner yesterday, the atmosphere was very nice, very friendly staff and particularly delicious food. We'd love to come back.

Absolutely friendly and warm hosts. There is a varied menu with a free wine recommendation from the chef. At the end of a very pleasant evening we received an extra service 🤫

Very tasty food for a good price

Come once a month and everything is fantastic! Very good atmosphere, food really great, not greasy and not dry! Service great!

02/2023 Honestly, you can save yourself something like that! Nobody answers the phone (full?) and there is a note hanging in the door?! Answering machine not discussed, nothing maintained here on Google... already sad about vacation... Thank you very much for 0 Greek hospitality. Really crowded on Sundays, a long wait for the food (1.5 hours) and other tables that came after us had their food sooner - they probably forgot about us because we requested a table swap. Parasol broken (nice to sit in the blazing sun), but delicious food. Unfortunately, there was only a minimal amount of salad on the plate, which was part of the meal. When the waiter asked if we would like an ouzo before paying, we were a bit surprised because there was always one before and after. Unfortunately, the children didn't get any fruit juice to toast with afterwards, as they usually do with the extra bag of gummy bears. The usual tip will then be correspondingly lower.

Prices are right, food tasted very tasty. Good quality of dishes and salads. Service was extremely friendly and very helpful. I'll definitely come back.

There were two of us and it was our first time in this restaurant. Appetizers and food were brought quickly. It tasted great 👍! The only thing that had to be compromised was the wine. Overall, a great evening. Recommended!

Spontaneously there, friendly welcome, super delicious food.

Very tasty food, nice service and great ambience (Including very nice accompaniment 😉)

This was our first visit to this restaurant. We were immediately pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere. But this was surpassed by the food... The service was very attentive and friendly. Every wish was fulfilled immediately. The prices are also ok. There is also no negative aspect in the sanitary facilities.👍 We are happy to recommend this restaurant.

Stets lecker und nettes Personal

The staff is super nice, you never have to wait long for anything and they are very accommodating. The food is really delicious 😋 that's why I keep coming back. I just find the ambience a bit cold and simple but that doesn't bother me that much. That's why we still go back again and again 😊.

Very friendly, warm staff and very tasty food. Price-performance is simply top.

Called early and ordered for the evening. It worked absolutely problem-free. We were served quickly. After a while the restaurant was full on a weekday. Food and service very good. It wasn't our first visit here and certainly not the last.

Very friendly service. Very pleasant atmosphere. Delicious food at good prices. We recommend. Thank you

Very tasty food, friendly service, lots of seats and still cozy because there are many nooks and corners in the restaurant. There is a small corner with pens and coloring books for the children. 2 bowling alleys included, but no noise pollution when eating. Highly recommended, especially for large groups or families.

Sehr nettes Personal und wirklich Familien freundlich. Essen war eine Delikatesse.

Das Essen war lecker, meine Lammhaxe war super zart, das Personal war freundlich. Es hat etwas gedauert bis das Essen kam, aber es war auch Weihnachten und das Lokal war voll. Buchung hat sehr gut funktioniert.
