Restaurant Achillion in Stuttgart

Great food and great service. We would be happy to come back even though we have a longer journey from Karlsruhe. Everything we tried was very tasty.

We let ourselves be carried away by the positive evaluations and the truth is that we were surprised. The place is cozy, well-kept and clean. It started very well with the friendliness of the waiters but what surprised us was the times between dishes, they took too long to serve and the truth is that the flavor left something to be desired given the good reviews they had.

UPDATE November 2024; We were there again for the first time after the change of ownership. The reception was very friendly and we were given the menu straight away. After a short time we were able to place our orders. We had Bifteki and the Achillon burger🍔. Both dishes were impeccable and tasty. Our waitress was very friendly, attentive and helpful. We come definitely again😀. ================================== Nice staff. Lamb shank, Kos plate and Artemis plate highly recommended. Were outside, so no rating for the ambience. Would love to come back. UPDATE FROM 08/05/2023: Images

Been there several times, the food was always delicious and the service was great! See you next time! 😃

Very good Greek restaurant, friendly atmosphere, very generously served meals, very welcoming staff. I recommend

That was the worst walleye I've ever eaten. Creepy!

Six years ago we rated the “old” Achillion with 4 stars, now that we have been to the new restaurant a few streets away a few times, we can absolutely give it five stars. Super nice, friendly, attentive guys who serve, the food no matter what it was, always! great, great products, perfectly fried, pleasing to the eye and at the end the obligatory ouzo on the house, what more could you want... only the background noise is amazing, staying there for any length of time isn't much fun, but absolutely recommended for eating! Update: The "old team" has quietly disappeared, the restaurant is now under new ownership. But also everyone is friendly and nice, good food, a little less on the menu and a little higher in price!

Sehr guter Service und sehr leckere Speisekarte. Das Lokal sehr sauber und schön. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder. Vielen Dank.

Nice clean restaurant in Stuttgart. Very good service and a very tasty menu.

Great food, very attentive waiters! Recommended

Sehr empfehlenswert, sehr leckeres Essen (wir hatten Gyros und eine kalte Vorspeisenplatte) und total nette Bedienungen - sehr guter Ouzo!

If you want to eat really fatty Greek food, this is the right place for you! What comes off the grill is not for vegetarians 🍗🍗🍗

Nice food excellent service quiet environment

The food was very good. The calamari was slightly salty. At the beginning, like many Greeks, there was an ouzo or something non-alcoholic, then there was a salad, a main course and finally there was dessert. The staff is very attentive and friendly and the atmosphere is appropriate.

Fabulous! We had to wait a bit at the table, but the rest was great.

We are regulars here. The food was always good. When we saw the new menus after the month-long closure, we suspected something bad. Usually it gets worse or more expensive or both. They were basically the same dishes. It still tasted good. We ordered the same dishes as always. It tasted good. It was just saltier than usual. Unfortunately, the receipt confirmed the fears. A mere 40% more expensive...The wine was about €5 more expensive Too bad. 40% expensive. Even with the new VAT regulations, this cannot be explained. It's just too much...

hidden champion 🏆 perfect service, drinks arrive immediately 👍🍷🍺

The service is great, the staff in the restaurant are rarely so friendly, the food is also really good and the price is right… Will definitely go again.

New operator: larger lunch menu, better starter salad, an ouzo included, and there is now a small dessert again (quark with raspberry sauce). Overall, I don't think the food is as tasty as it used to be.

Always my pleasure. Food very tasty

We haven't been in the West for that long, but Achillion has almost immediately become a local pub.

Update after 6 months! July 2024 I am really amazed, since the new owner got Achillion everything changed. The atmosphere, the personnel, the food ALL IN ALL 180 Degrees turn from my last time here. The new menu card, are all with labeled for people with different kind of allergies. The staff is friendly and ready to accommodate us. The food is like from heaven. Not only taste ewise but also quality and the size of portions, I am adding some pictures so you will know! Nikos & Maria, I so glad that you turn this place around and made it a worth visit restaurant ........................................................ January 2024 We visited the restaurant with 2 of my friends. The waiter first tried to sell us a bottle of wine, even though only one of us spoke about getting a glass. And he was just persuing the sell without letting me think of it or say anything. When I asked about the wine menu he tried to avoid it. After I told him several times that I want to see the wine menu, he finally brought it. He informed me, that the wine he was suggesting us was worth it of 30 euros. One not so cheap wine to be honest. After we decided to do not get a bottle he took our orders a bit displeased. I ordered the beef filett ( ordered medium) with thyme sauce potatos and grill veggies with salad which I upgraded for a Greek salad. Total cost 34 euros. As appetisers we got some things for my friends that I could try due to gluten intolerance. So I can't say anything. But we order the Feta in the oven with tomato and peppers. I sweat to God when they Brough it on the table I thought it was a joke. One slice of Feta, with 2 pieces of cherry tomato. 2 pieces of peperoni pepper and some olive slices.. Taste wise was good, was money worth it? Definitely not. In one point the waiter points my friend and says, quite rude in my opinion, "you have been here before" and he does the same while pointing at me. And all this while addressing us "causally" with "du" something that I find really disrespectful as a costumer. My disappointment continues when my food arrived. 2 thin layers, cause you can't call these pieces whey where literally thinner than my picky finger, of meat (max 100gr both combined) . 1 potato cut in half. 5 pieces of pepper and half(!?) Cherry tomato. Some brown sauce on top and thats all. First I eat try the meat, dry with no flavour and nothing close to medium grilled. The sauce was definitely not Thyme sauce. Probably just a regular brown sauce which brings me to my later problem. The potato was at least a day or 2 old and just preheated which gave it a weird texture and taste. I mean if I wanted to eat 3 days old potatoes I would just stayed home. Not paying a ton of money for it After we were done and we asked for the bill another waiter came, I guess he was trying to be "funny" but when my friend asked to pay some specific dishes that we order, he was standing next to her and leaning on the table. He just put the phone-like Maschine and saying loudly and multiple times to her " just press it" JUST PRESS IT " as if is her job to add the things in her bill. We said goodbye and ready to leave we heard some comments about our appearance, apparently they were trying to be flirty just for fun by they end up being disgusting. And even though this evening wasn't bad enough, I realised that even though in the menu was not mention, my food was with gluten in it, probably the brown sauce. So I spent the next 3 days, being in pain and bloated and having even trouble sleeping and eating. Which led me to loose a day of my work. So for me, this restaurant is a no go. Even though when I visited few years ago the service and food were decent. This time is HUGE disappointment.

Good lunch: Tastes great and good value for money.

Super tasty and very nice staff. Thank you for the great evening Keep it up!

Not so good since the change of tenant. Unfortunately the salad doesn't taste as good as it used to. Unfortunately, I was disappointed because we went there with the same expectations as always and ended up leaving €80 behind for the two of us 🫠

Delicious food, friendly service for an affordable price. I had an "Achillion-platte" and it was good. Will for sure come around again.

Unfortunately I was disappointed. Probably a change in operator/chef as it has been closed for a longer period of time. I had an appetizer platter to share. This was very good and fills a woman up on its own. But the gyro was a letdown. On the first bite I had a very salty piece, but the old meat flavor still came through. Sorry, that's not possible given the prices. Other pieces were ok, but I lost my appetite. Restaurateurs should not be surprised if the number of guests drops due to prices and poor quality.

Service: 5 stars Cleanliness: 5 stars Dishes: 5 stars Only recommended. Price is a bit on the upper side. Were there for the second time. Something has changed. But it is still very tasty. I had grilled liver. And gyros. The liver was tender and very well seasoned. The gyros are crispy and juicy. Not dry and still has a rusty aroma. The salad dressing on the side salad wasn't that good. A bit thick and sweet, not enough vinegar. For me anyway. I liked it but I didn't think it was tasty. That's why I didn't say anything. Conditions was very attentive and super friendly. We would like to thank you for a wonderful and wonderful evening. On July 11, 2024 We really enjoyed our wedding anniversary there.

Change of tenant. Service has decreased. Food ok but not as good as before. No more terrace.

The food is ok depending on the dish. However, prices are expensive compared to other Greek restaurants. The portions are large and sufficient. What is extremely negative, however, is the service. The waiters are unfriendly and unreliable. In our case, several dishes were either completely forgotten or mixed up; when we pointed this out, we were greeted with extremely rude comments. It's a shame because the ambience looked promising.

Delicious food and extremely friendly service, extensive lunch menu

Spontaneous decision to eat here on our weekend trip. We weren't disappointed. Beautiful ambience, a friendly welcome, very attentive service and excellent food with an absolutely fair price-performance ratio. There is also a nice selection of really good Greek wines. Here you feel like a guest from the first moment, thank you for a great evening. And even though the entire staff is very courteous and friendly, special praise goes to Stratos! Sympathetic, funny, incredibly attentive, simply great! We will definitely come back when we are in Stuttgart again!

It would be great if online reservations were switched off during company holidays or at least the period was blocked. I made a reservation for a large group this evening and just by chance saw a review here that said the restaurant was currently on vacation. Too bad...

On March 29th, 2024 a table was reserved for April 19th, 2024, so there was a lead time of 3 weeks. The reservation was confirmed and even reminded again the day before. When we arrived at the reserved time, we found a note saying that from April 9th. until 6.5. are company holidays. They were unable to inform us about this and cancel the reservation. Anyone who does not confirm reservations reliably will definitely not see us as guests again.

We had a reservation with 9 people for Friday April 13th, 2024 at 7:30 p.m. 2 days before we received an email from the restaurant confirming it. So far so good... but when we got there the restaurant was closed from April 9th ​​to April 15th, 2024. Continue to have a good night's sleep... or scold the provider of your reservation page.

We would have liked to give the Achillion a chance, we had reserved for several people 2 weeks in advance and received 2 confirmations. Get there and it's closed. It's incomprehensible that you don't check whether there are ongoing reservations before closing for a month.

We reserved a table for several people via the website. A confirmation came after a few days and another reminder about the reservation the day before. On the evening of the reservation there was a nasty surprise when the restaurant was closed due to company holidays. Of course it is clear that the reservation is made via an automatic system but I think it is not too much to ask to take appropriate precautions.

Unfortunately I can't say anything about the food. Had ordered. It was promised that the food would be there within an hour. After 40 minutes of waiting it was suddenly canceled. Not only did I lose 70 euros, but I'm sitting at home hungry. Nobody can be reached by phone. The whole thing is very strange.

Can't recommend!! Restaurant was reserved for a larger group. The confirmation was confirmed twice. The location was closed on the date in question. Reason company outing???? That's no service. I can only advise against everyone! Never again!

Good Greek restaurant with very fast service.

We ordered the beef fillet and the salmon fillet. both tasted good. The fillet was still too raw for medium well. The chairs in the restaurant are very comfortable. There are some spelling errors in the menu. I would consider the restaurant for another visit.

Guided by the good reviews and looking for a good Greek restaurant, I reserved a few tables online at the Achillion restaurant for a birthday. When the day came, our reservation could no longer be found. However, that wasn't a problem. We were in the restaurant shortly after it opened at lunchtime and got seats in the back area. The restaurant is nicely decorated. It's a good mix of old-fashioned and modern. There are lots of pictures hanging on the walls, where you can always discover something. Everything is clean and tidy, including the toilets. As a starter for everyone we had the cold starter variation and the warm starter variation. There was also delicious bread. The starters themselves were very different. From feta in filo dough with honey to seafood, everything was there. A lot of things didn't convince me in terms of taste. A few spreads were solid, but otherwise many of us were disappointed. We had many different dishes. I can't get them all together. Here are a few and how they arrived. Among other things, there was stuffed eggplant. Unfortunately we didn't finish eating them because they weren't convincing. One of us also had the penne with chicken breast, which was delicious. There were also pork skewers with fries. The skewers were okay, while the fries were unfortunately not good at all. I had the lamb chops with oven-roasted vegetables. The vegetables were acceptable, but the chops were tasty. In summary, we found the food to be solid on average, but none of us were thrilled. The employees were always friendly and always checked to see if we were okay and whether we needed anything else. Special requests, such as a dessert plate and a fork for the cake we brought with us, were also no problem. We ended up really paying a lot. Around 35 euros per person, for which several people can eat well. We were able to try out a lot of things, but we weren't convinced. There's not much to complain about about the restaurant or the staff, but there's definitely still room for improvement. I can't understand the good reviews.

Unfortunately, our anticipation of an evening of Greek food in the Achillion restaurant in Stuttgart ended in great disappointment The staff seemed stressed and in a bad mood, we were hardly noticed when we entered and while we were ordering the waiter seemed impatient and uninterested. One dish was completely forgotten and when we asked, we didn't get a good response. When we wanted to place additional orders a short time later, the service hurried away while we were still choosing, without paying any attention to us. This disrespect continued throughout our entire visit. This became too much for us and we paid and left abruptly. We had never experienced anything like this before. As a Greek I am ashamed of the lack of hospitality and poor service at Achillion restaurant. Although the food was okay, it clearly lacked authenticity. It also lacked the warm welcome you would expect from a Greek restaurant. Overall, I cannot recommend the Achillion restaurant in Stuttgart. If you are looking for a real taste of Greece, where you feel at home and the food and service leave you with a good feeling and experience, you should look elsewhere. Good service and a welcoming atmosphere are crucial to a successful restaurant experience, and that was completely missing here. I will never eat there again and will not recommend it. As a Greek, it was a complete disappointment, especially since I was there with friends and warmly appreciated the Greek cuisine Conclusion: A visit to a restaurant should be a pleasant experience that you look back on with joy. This was not the case here.

We had to wait a long time until our table was wiped clean of the leftovers from the guests in front of it. The food was not seasoned well. Bread with the salad was only available upon request. Cutlery for the children was forgotten, so we had to ask first. Overall disappointing.

The food was good. The ambience is a little different than the normal Greek restaurant.

Terrific! Rarely have Greek food been so good! A real recommendation.

The food arrived quickly and it was very tasty 😋

Have the tenants changed? After a few months I treated myself to a village platter again. Souvlaki hard and chewy. The gyro was almost inedible and had more fat than edible meat. It's a shame, I used to be a huge fan

A good restaurant with delicious Greek food. The ambience is very nice. The food was delicious. Ordered the Artemis plate. The meat was quite good. However, the turkey was very dry and the gyros a bit salty. The table also wobbled. But all in all good. Ouzo on the house.

At its finest, everything fits here. Plus everything was super tasty and at normal prices and there was hardly a long wait. Very honest boss. Will definitely come back 👍👍👍😊

Stylish. Cozy. Very nice team. I like Greek food but tonight was delicious. Gladly again.

Super nice restaurant (facility) The gentleman who served us was a bit strict with his looks at first, but then he thawed out, as did we 😂😂 But he was profile right from the start in how he served us and until the end. Thanks for that 👍 I pointed out to him that I had an allergy and he made sure my dish didn't really have anything on it. This was the first restaurant where the condition became independent. Thank you very much 🥰 I have nothing but high praise for the food and from what our friends have heard, I'm not alone. IT COULDN'T GET BETTER 👍👍👍Thank you for the great evening 🥰 We'll definitely be back 🥰🥰

As a starter I had the Taramas, the Taramas was beautifully presented and very tasty, the side salad for the main course was very oily and hardly any vinegar, the main course (gyros baked in metaxa sauce with cheese) wasn't that great, it was only lukewarm. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated, but it is very loud, which could have been because it was a Saturday evening and was busy.

Very good food, the liver is Greek..Absolutely service highly recommended.....again and again

The service is unacceptable... As if we weren't in the store... Only the Germans were working above them.. The waiter never brought us the second drinks... We asked for a bill soon after and again waited... Unacceptable... Especially the one waiter rude... From beginning... He didn't explain the menu... And it was with a style... You are delaying us from other customers...

Extremely long waiting times for the main courses (1 1/2 hours). Unfortunately these were served lukewarm. Unfortunately no recommendation.

Tasty and fast service. Here you get the classic Greek dishes that you would expect from a Greek restaurant. However, there are no surprising recipes.

Such delicious food, super nice service, I would love to come back

Very nice and large restaurant. We got our food quickly and it tasted excellent. The meat was very good. At first the food looked very little, for 2 people. But that was exactly what happened and we were well fed. See you next time.

Went there with a group, everything went smoothly despite lunchtime and the food was delicious, thank you!

Das war hier bisweilen ein super Restaurant. Klar, die MwSt wurde erhöht und der Betreiber muss reagieren. Kein Problem damit. Nur wenn sich die Portionsgrößen dann halbieren frage ich mich was das soll. Die Hauptspeise wird mengenmäßig zur Vorspeisen, ein Witz. Dann nehmt lieber noch zwei Euro mehr und kehrte zu alter Größe zurück. Wenigstens der Geschmack ist unverändert gut

Disappointing experience. The service wasn’t good, we had to constantly ask after our orders and basic things which you normally get as part of the dining experience (no bread, no salad, no ouzo, didn’t receive the our tzatziki or espresso). When we told our waiter that we were disappointed with the dining experience, he had no reaction. The restaurant was definitely.understaffed.

The two of us ate there on Saturday evening and got a table without a reservation, but in the passage between the two rooms. A bowl of bread was immediately served, but without olive oil or anything like that. What should you do with that? For dinner we ordered the warm starter platter and the Faros platter for two - everything tasted great. The house wine was okay, but it's only available in a 0.2 liter glass and not in a carafe. Why not? We also often felt overlooked and while the service was on point, we missed the occasional smile or even Greek hospitality. Sure, there was a lot going on, but the bottom line is that everything took a little too long.

It is not the best we have tried, the prices in the area are high and the portions are small.

Unfortunately the service wasn't good. The food, however, was tasty, but small portions

The food was very tasty. The ambience is not typically Greek at first glance, which is not meant in a negative way. Price/performance is good.

The best Greek restaurant in Stuttgart!

Very tasty food at absolutely fair prices, service is always friendly. I eat there several times a year and have never been disappointed.

Hier war alles bestens! Gutes Essen in schönem Ambiente.

Tolles griechisches Restaurant mit allem was man braucht!!Essen super schnell da und sehr lecker!!Ouzo danach sehr zu empfehlen

Tolles Essen, Gyros klasse, schneller freundlicher Service, Empfehlenswert die Baby Calamares

Nette Atmosphäre,haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt,kommen gerne wieder!

Vorspeise und Salat sehr lecker , aber Souvlaki und Reis lauwarm und ungewürzt, Fleisch zäh... Leider nicht authentisch griechisch.

Das Essen war wirklich sehr lecker!

Unaufmerksames Personal, Essen war zwar geschmacklich gut aber weit weg von Griechenland,

Einer der BESTEN 🇬🇷 Restaurant! Top Lage, Top Service einfach ALLES TOP! Das ganze Team ist sehr freundlich,cool drauf, immer witzig das macht so Spass bei Ihnen mit dieser hervorragende Stimmung einen Tollen Abend und sehr leckeren Essen zu verbringen. Ich fahre zwei mal im Monat ( manchmal auch drei 🫣) aus Zürich für so ein köstliches Essen bei Achillion, es LOHNT SICH!💯

Das Ambiente ist super schön, essen war sehr lecker und der Service sehr nett und zuvorkommend.

Gutes Essen und angenehmes Ambiente

Essen war sehr gut, Bedienung freundlich und schnell. Tolles Ambiente. Gerne wieder.

Die Vorspeise & Ambiente war wirklich super. Sehr lecker & richtig gemütlich. Der Hauptgang (Gyros in Metaxa soße mit Reis & Salat) war leider nicht das, was wir erwartet haben. Die Metaxasoße war eine Tomatenrahmsoße & der (lauwarme) Reis war ein tomatisierter Reis. Der Salat ist in Öl geschwommen. Wir haben recht lange auf alles gewartet, waren aber auch an einem Freitag um 18:45 Uhr da, daher ist das absolut legitim. Servicekräfte waren sehr reserviert & nicht zuvorkommend oder freundlich.

Lecker griechisches Essen, super freundlicher Service cooles Lokal. Gerne wieder

Super gutes Essen. Zudem war der Service genial. Richtig familiäre Atmosphäre. 5 Sterne von mir und würde auch noch mehr geben. Preis Leistung wirklich top!

Personale gentilissimo e cordiale

Leider kennt die Bedienung nicht die Zusammensetzung eines griechischen Bauernsalat. Wir haben höflich hingewiesen dass keine Paprika im Salat war. Er meinte es wäre nie Paprika enthalten. Wer die Karte liest ist klüger

Wir waren dort das erste und letzte mal. Bedienung sehr freundlich und schnell aber das wars auch. Teller kaputt, Polster kaputt. Meine Vorspeise war kalt und innen roh, ging komplett zurück. Unsere Hauptspeisen waren lauwarm bis kalt. Fleisch war zäh und trocken, der Reis war nur matschig und null gewürzt. Die Salate haben nach nix geschmeckt, total lieblos angerichtet.

Leckeres Food und freundliches Personal! Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Fantastycznie!!! Pojechaliśmy spontanicznie, bez rezerwacji i choć było pełno, znaleziono dla nas urocze miejsce 😊obsługa przemiła, szybka i znająca się na swojej pracy 👍jedzenie pysznie przyrządzone, apetycznie podane ,porcje solidne i bardzo smaczne 😉😍tak wiec polecam tę restaurację na miło spędzony posiłek...toalety bardzo czyste ,tak więc polecam każdemu...problemem będzie wjazd ba wózku inwalidzkim, bo to w starej kamienicy z kilkoma schodkami ale myślę, że ogródek restauracjyjny lub pomóc obsługi pomogą problem rozwiązać 🙃🥰🙃

Muy buen servicio a un precio muy razonable

Mit Abstand der beste Mittagstisch im Stuttgarter Westen. Immer frisch, warm, lecker und sehr schnell geliefert. Im gesamten ein tolles Preis- u. Leistungsverhältnis

Das Essen war sehr sehr lecker, leider 2 Stunden auf das Essen gewartet (waren an einem Samstagabend da). Die Rinderleber und der warme Vorspeiseteller sind sehr zu empfehlen.

Sehr leckere Speisen hat das Achillion. Nur zu empfehlen wäre vor dem Besuch zu reservieren😉

Alles perfekt! Sehr zu empfehlen! Wir haben zu Mittag gegessen und sind sehr zufrieden!

Essen sehr lecker und Service absolut top! Vor allem die Vorspeisenteller sind sehr vielseitig.

Zum ersten mal Essen gewesen, nette Bedingung . Vorspeise und danach Essen kamen relativ schnell auf dem Tisch, leider aber gar nicht frisch! Schmeckte nicht gut daher ging wieder zurück. Kein leckeres Essen also wir kommen nicht wieder.

Not the best one, but the portion definitely worth the price. I recommend the liver. Tomato soup, not so authentic. Service was good and friendly

Essen war schwer in ordnung, Gyros war zwar zu trocken aber alles andere war Top. Jede menge Kelner die sehr zuvorkommend waren und immer mal wieder am Tisch waren. Reichhaltige Speisekarte und die Preise waren fair.

Das Restaurant war schön eingerichtet. Wir haben allerdings draußen auf der Terrasse gegessen. Unser Kellner war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Essen hat uns allen sehr gut Geschmeckt und preislich war es sehr fair. Ich hatte das Hähnchenbrustfilet mit Penne dazu einen Beilagensalat. Fand ich super! Komme gerne wieder.

Gutes Essen zu annehmbaren Preisen. Freundlicher Service. Möglichkeit drinnen und draußen zu sitzen. Komme immer gerne hier hin.

Sehr schön, das Essen wirklich gut, auch die Preise stimmen! Personal sehr höflich und nett. Innerhalb von 30 min, Getränke mit Vorspeise und hauptgang auf dem Tisch gehabt. (Waren zu siebt) wir kommen wieder!

Das Mittagessen wird immer mickriger. Mickriger Salat (leicht welk), wenige Pommes zum Fleisch. Nachtisch, den es jahrelang gab, ersatzlos gestrichen. Schade, wir waren Stammgäste, sind es jetzt nicht mehr. Wir haben immer alle Freunde, Geschäftspartner dorthin ausgeführt, machen wir jetzt nicht mehr. Es gibt Alternativen in der Nachbarschaft.
