Restaurant Artemis in Essen

Thank you that something like this still exists. Even late on Saturday evening, the senior manager was still there and assigned us a table. Nice: In the old tradition, an ouzo first. My Fino plate also comes with a Metaxa at no extra charge. Fair prices - again and again!

Good food for a reasonable price.

Great restaurant, friendly staff, reasonable price and good food.😀

Super nice restaurant in the middle of the city center - the service is amazing and the food is incredibly delicious! Although it is a large restaurant, the table conversations remain pleasantly quiet even when the restaurant is full

Probably one of the most famous Greek restaurants in the city center. We were warmly welcomed and immediately greeted with a small aperitif. The price-performance ratio is right and the food is delicious. We always enjoy being there.

As always, super tasty and super friendly. The best Greek in the city, although for us it's now the best ever.

We were at Artemis on Saturday lunchtime. Extensive lunch menu with reasonable prices and sumptuous, very tasty dishes (1x gyros with souvlaki, fries, rice, tzatziki and 1x biftekti with fries). Very tasty and highly recommended. The service is very attentive and friendly. There was an ouzo on the house to welcome and say goodbye. So if you're in downtown Essen and want to eat delicious Greek food, you're in good hands here 👍

Food, service, everything was great! My men were very happy. I myself suffer from allergies and intolerances. Everything was taken into account and my food was also very tasty.

Very good food, attentive service and reasonable prices

Very tasty and not expensive at all. However, advance booking is necessary as the restaurant is very busy. I thought it was great.

Great, what an atmosphere. Nice service and the food was very good.

Waiters very quick and courteous Really Greek restaurant!

Super tasty, nice menu with lots of delicious food, it's hard to decide. The staff is also very helpful and friendly. Great atmosphere on the terrace too

Great, tasteful food. Exquisite Greek cuisine - like on holiday. Nice ambience.

Discovered by chance. Food was super tasty, service was great! Can be recommended 100 percent. Rarely eaten so well. We would be happy to come back. Simply great!

Our favorite when it comes to Greek food! We've been going here for years and are always satisfied!

Inexpensive and delicious! Absolute recommendation! 25€: Bifteki, salad, 0.5l wine, tip and 1 ouzo on the house

Wir waren spätabends an einem Samstagabend nach langer Zeit wieder hier. Wir wurden prompt bedient. Die Kellner sind nett und freundlich. Vor dem Hauptgang bekamen wir 2 Ouzos und bei der Bezahlung ebenfalls. Wir haben eine Grill-Platte bestellt. Diese war sehr gut zubereitet und bot sehr viel Auswahl an. Alles war richtig heiß und frisch zubereitet. Vorab gab es die Salat-Platte. Dazu haben wir uns noch eine Portion Zaziki bestellt, die uns hier auch sehr lecker schmeckt. Für uns immer noch einer der besten Griechen im Ruhrgebiet. Vielen Dank für die Bewirtung und wir kommen gerne wieder.

Unfortunately, the first Greek who doesn't give tzatziki with the grill plate so he can charge 6 euros extra for it. Food wasn't that great either

Very poor quality, the meat is very dry and tastes disastrous

We went there for dinner at my birthday party a few years ago. It was very nice there! The food was great! Gladly again !

A restaurant that has been around for years and has lost none of its class. Just the thing for good things and eaters.

Very tasty food at acceptable prices. Ventilation might be better when the restaurant is full.

The restaurant is in the middle of the city of Essen and easy to find. Indoors there are only plastic flowers. The order was received quickly. The salad was served before the drinks, so it couldn't have been freshly made. I had the moussaka, it was lukewarm and the potatoes were undercooked. My husband had gyros, which weren't really hot and were cut very small. When we complained we just shrugged our shoulders.

The plastic tablecloths don't fit there.

Very good food. Very friendly staff. Everything's fine.👍👍👍

As always, very good food and nice staff

Greek restaurant located in the city center. The food was mediocre but the gyros were one of the worst I've ever eaten. The starters didn't blow us away either. The interior design has seen better days, for example the bench had obvious burn holes and the indirect lighting had the charm of the 80s. Comfortable is different. With the exception of one waiter, everyone seemed a bit annoyed, short and unfriendly. The time until the first order takes forever and the repeat orders weren't any better either. I don't know whether there is usually an ouzo on the house like many other Greeks, but we definitely didn't get anything even though we were there with 8 people. It was worth a try, but there definitely won't be a second time because, in my opinion, there are much better Greek restaurants in Essen than Artemis.

We were in Essen for 2 days, I was looking for a Greek restaurant, I found it and I have to say it was super tasty and the service was very friendly. If we come here again, I know where to find good Greek food. Thanks. PS: Portions are large and fill you up 😃 Keep it up 😃

Good prices, nice staff, lukewarm food, little sauce and long waiting times

There were three of us eating there and we got a seat right away, even though it was already full. You didn't have to wait long for a waiter either. The ouzo came with the drink order - for the ladies as a cocktail (very tasty) - I only know that with us afterwards. The food was tasty and plentiful, so as a guest you don't need to worry about the price/performance ratio. I had the farmer's plate with gyros, souvlaki, liver and a lamb chop, and even had to have it wrapped up. The meat was on point and from the grill, small drawback you had to order the tzatziki separately - I would have liked to have had that with the gyros, unfortunately it was on the skewer a little too long. But we had a very nice evening with delicious food and friendly staff. Thanks.

The food here is excellent, very tasty and the waiters are friendly and put you in a good mood; Always my pleasure

There were three of us, two adults and one child. However, this is not the first time. We go there very often, whether with friends or as a couple. The service is great and the food is also great, whether gyros, schnitzel for the children or the salads. There is an ouzo first and a side salad with the main courses. We feel very at home there, would come back at any time and can only be recommended.

So, it would be good if you change their opening hours when they are closed We drove here specially from Düsseldorf, yes, it's too closed

Unfortunately it was completely closed. :(

Food has always been good for decades

It's best to reserve a table as it was packed. The Greek salad was great.

Went there for lunch yesterday. Friendly reception and friendly service. We chose our delicious meal from the lunch menu. Drinks were well chilled, food was fresh and served hot. And always friendly and accommodating. We always enjoy coming here from time to time and seeing familiar faces. We would be happy to come back.

Very good Greek restaurant with a good selection, gladly again!

We only picked up but were quite surprised by the selection. There is something for everyone.

Great restaurant and great service 😊 thank you for the hospitality.

The best Greek restaurant in Germany. The food is fresh and absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is pleasant and the service is fast and impeccable! Really a pleasant surprise with food that comes close to home!

The best Greek Restaurant I've been to in Western Europe. I went with my friend after work and forgot about the tiredness of the whole week. The kindness of the owner and the waiters, and the freshness and taste of the food are priceless. I highly recommend it to everyone coming to Essen.

It's a shame...we've known the restaurant for 23 years...unfortunately the food is no longer good and the service is no longer what it used to be

Nice personel Delicious food. Absolutely fair prices. Gladly again!

Ambiance between plastic flowers

The best Greek restaurant I know.

Our favorite Greek restaurant for more than 25 years

Visited here on my own on a Friday night for a solitary dinner, no reservation and they kindly gave me a nice table. Really busy kitchen and waiting staff, great food, proper enjoyable German Greek. Booked for the whole team on Saturday and everyone really enjoyed. Rare to find these days, a nice variety of "jug wines". Thanks for two nice evenings!

Very tasty food and nice staff. Usually pretty well attended.

Top service, top food. Welcome aperitif. Rating 5/5

For many, many years nothing has lost in quality for me the best Greek in town!!

Very good restaurant with very tasty Greek specialties. Plus friendly service and a good price-performance ratio. We'd love to come back!

Very good Greek restaurant that we chose after a long and active day in Essen. Spontaneous stops are possible and the staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. We were then assigned a table in the beautiful interior area. After ordering drinks, which was made promptly, we then chose the food. My dish, Metaxa plate, was also very tasty and beautifully presented. We had a lovely evening and saved the restaurant to our personal hard drive.

Food and staff very good. We liked it and would like to come back at any time.

Rather below average performance. Service rude, moussaka dry and way too much cinnamon, once there is enough. The restaurant also looks old.

Very tasty food and friendly service

The best lamb chops ever. Always nice service and good food.

The food is great, but as soon as the plate is on the table, the service ends. The waiter walks past 5 times and sees the empty glasses and moves on! Without asking, there's nothing left! It was like that about a year ago and it's still the same today not changed!

Very stable Greek. Food was delicious. Maybe that certain something was missing for the 5th star. But it was a lovely evening with very accommodating hosts and good food. Can be recommended.

Delicious. Large selection. Reservations!

Very good food. Good conditions.

We had an appointment for dinner with a group of about 10 people. We were warmly welcomed at the entrance and escorted to our table. The restaurant was already busy at this time. There were several waiters on duty who were also busy, but unfortunately not at our table. For some reason I couldn't explain, we waited a full 20 minutes until our drink order was taken. It took another 10 minutes for the drinks to arrive and of course the obligatory ouzo on the house didn't come, although other tables that were occupied at the same time got one... well, mistakes happen. We were only able to place the order for the food after speaking to several waiters. The food finally arrived 1 1/2 hours later. This was mediocre and nothing special (I know better Greek restaurants). According to the menu, my dish came with an ouzo. I had to request this from the staff, otherwise I wouldn't have received it to this day. All in all, the staff was very friendly, the atmosphere was OK. But we weren't really satisfied due to the extremely long waiting times...

The food was very tasty! I can only recommend

A special restaurant with very authentic Greek food. The interior could do with some work, but it was delicious and the staff were accommodating.

Very nice Greek restaurant. Food was 😋 delicious, the rest was good too. Gladly again.

Delicious food, endless options, great service.

We had gyros with fries and salad, it was all very tasty and the portions were reasonable, as I expect from a good Greek restaurant.

Very nice service, even though it was quite busy, the food came very quickly and was very good. Recommendation: We sat in the upper area, it was much quieter there!

The food was very tasty. We would love to come back.😊

We went to Artemis today... The ambience seems a bit old-fashioned, but it's just okay, but some snack bars are nicer, so it's time!!! The staff is friendly, but you get the impression that you want to get rid of guests quickly for new guests, because it wasn't possible to enjoy the food as quickly as the courses were served (the main course arrived during the starter). The portions were generous (as advertised by the Restaurant) we didn't notice anything. Gyros fit in the palm of your hand and the liver was sliced ​​so thinly (yes, that's just the calculation). Oh well, the salad as a side dish was of the cheap kind. Thank you very much, but we won't be back stay with our regular Greek snack bar!!!

Der Service war eher mittelmäßig, nach Getränkewünschen wurde nur wenig bis gar nicht gefragt. Das Essen kam schnell aber leider nur lauwarm am Tisch an. Geschmacklich war es nichts besonderes, die Tomatensuppe vermutlich aus der Dose. Portionen auch eher klein. Preislich aber ok. Wir werden leider nicht wieder kommen.

We love this place. We have been here several times. whenever we are in Essen we visit here for a nice dinner. The food is very tasty and the prices are reasonable. During the evening dinner period, you may have to wait because there are usually many people. I recommend this place to everyone who likes Greek meat dishes

This is a special Greek restaurant. The staff, service and food are fantastic and have been for at least 15 years. This time we drove to Essen specifically to eat there again. In our case, that means taking a 500 km detour..... from Spain to the Netherlands.

Good and plentiful food at fair prices. Original Greek dishes are represented as well as “Germanized” ones with fries.

The Artemis Restaurant stands for culinary enjoyment across the board! The dishes taste excellent and are very large. The prices are OK. The service is always friendly, attentive and quick. The ambience with the arched ceiling is in a class of its own. Thank you very much and all the best!!!

Fantastic Greek restaurant with great dishes and fabulous tzaziki. Ok, I had to order the tzaziki as a side dish, but for me this is no problem. Nice and professional staff!

My choice 312. Always! Liver! Yummy! Thanks!

We were at Artemis for the second time on Saturday. Although it was quite full, the service was still very good and the food came to the table quickly. The portions were all a decent size and everything was very tasty!

Very good food, friendly staff and all at surprisingly affordable prices.

As always, a wonderfully delicious meal that you can't find anywhere else. The service is always nice and courteous. The boss is a kind-hearted person. Always happy to come here

This is a Greek restaurant just as you would expect it to be in Germany. For some the decor is a bit kitschy, for others it's romantic. Either way, the decor is a little dated, but everything is well kept and clean. We received a friendly welcome and were served quickly and attentively by several staff members. The food was very good, i.e. the meat was well grilled and juicy. That's how it should be! The price-quality ratio is excellent and the location in the city center is simply ideal, as the restaurant is so easy to get to.

Very tasty food, good value for money. Long-established restaurant.

It wasn't very busy that evening and we were served quickly and friendly. The food and the price-performance ratio was very good.

Very good chicken soup!!! Fast, professional service! Highly recommended! Thank you.

Good food for all tastes. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Definitely recommendable:)

Good food, nice service. Thank you for the great evening.

There is also gypsy schnitzel on the menu... the food was pretty good so far. But for me, as a tall person, the seats were a little cramped

Friendly, delicious, simply top 👍

A very cozy restaurant, every single employee was very friendly and accommodating. The food tasted very good, the price is absolutely right!

Very tasty food and friendly staff😊

Great food and great service. Only recommended

Always tasty, friendly staff…ambience is a bit old-fashioned

Fantastic restaurant. Delicious food. Dear all. It was quite full and we had not made a reservation, but luckily we were still able to get in. Really great!!!

A very special experience, truly authentic in terms of both the ambience and the cuisine. Incredible selection and first-class service, I would be happy to come again if the opportunity arises.

It was a nice evening, with delicious food. Unfortunately, the portions were smaller than I know from Greek restaurants. Otherwise nice and clean location. Gladly again!

Were there for the second time, you can eat really tasty food and the gentlemen are always friendly and accommodating. It's not a luxury restaurant (although the service is close) and that's a good thing, you can end the evening in a relaxed manner 🥰

απλά υπέροχο! Go out for a really typical Greek meal. The best of the grill with very friendly service. The food was very tasty. The restaurant offers everything you could wish for, from lunch to a cozy dinner.

Regular customer for 30 years. There is nothing to add.

This is really a secret tip. Super delicious food and drinks. The service is 1a+++. And the prices are very good. Once and again. Absolutely 🔝
