Restaurant Symposion in Bergisch Gladbach

Always delicious and highly recommended! Family-run restaurant, always friendly, and never disappointed!

One of the best restaurants I have ever been to and the best restaurants in Bensberg.

A spontaneous weekend visit. The food was world-class. The owner clearly has his shop and staff under control in a very positive manner. We felt completely at home and had a great evening. A definite recommendation!

Authentic Greek cuisine. They also serve kleftiko and stifado.

The lamb shank with gigantes was fantastic. The service was attentive, courteous, and quick. Everything was top-notch!

Delicious food, service is very good.

Price-performance ratio is good, it was really tasty, keep it up

A long-established Greek restaurant with a very cozy feel. The owner and staff are very friendly and attentive. Before the meal, we were served a glass of ouzo, which made room for the very filling portions. The prices are reasonable and fair. Reservations are recommended, as the restaurant is often packed in the evenings. For starters, I highly recommend the garlic bread; it's incredibly delicious and very crispy. For main courses, I prefer the oven-baked dishes, such as giouvetsi with kritharaki and feta cheese. The grilled dishes are also very good, although I never order fries, but there are alternatives. It's worth a visit; you'll return home feeling very satisfied and full.

For me personally the tastiest gyros and tzatziki in a large area.... Meat is freshly marinated by hand and put on skewers... everything is simply delicious :)

Super great restaurant, I'm happy to travel 40 km to feel like I'm in Greece

Landed here by chance and ate some very tasty Bifsteki and drank two Cokes.

The food was again very tasty. The service was very friendly and very good.

Simply excellent restaurant with very good food and great service!!

My favorite restaurant in Bensberg – the food is delicious and fresh, the staff are friendly and in a good mood, and the ouzo is also very tasty.

"Very tasty food and a great selection of traditional Greek dishes. Particularly noteworthy is the attentive and super-friendly service - we felt completely at home. Always happy!"

Very good food and great staff.

Very tasty dishes, very attentive, friendly staff, everything was perfect here

We have been there several times now with 4 people. Sometimes with and without a reservation. But every time you are told that you have to be gone in 2 hours. I don't think it's very hospitable. And 2 1/2 hours. Or 2 hours. later it was still quite empty. The food is quite delicious. Only the minced meat on the grill plate is a little too salty and too dry. For some there is ouzo before and after. For some, none at all and sometimes only before. I find it strange too. Otherwise the food will go very quickly. Service was also quite attentive. The tables in the middle are rather uncomfortable. But to each his own. We prefer to sit on the sidelines. My subjective feeling.

Was received very friendly. We reserved a table for two and ate lamb and turkey fillet skewers, very tasty. Thank you, gladly again.

Es gibt leckere authentisch griechische Küche. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Es könnte vielleicht mal renoviert werden. Wenn es warm ist, kann man auch gut draußen sitzen. Das Lokal ist immer sehr gut besucht, auf jeden Fall reservieren!

Apart from the beer tent atmosphere, everything was great

Delicious, delicious, delicious. A little noisy when it's busy, but the food is worth it.

Sehr freundliche und aufmerksame Gastgeber bei sehr leckerem Essen (Lammspiess mit Beilagen) und einem sehr guten griechischem Rotwein (Techni Alipias). Der Preis war dem Essen angemessen.

Super tasty gyros with lots of onions. We were in transit. After a short wait we had a table. Everyone was very nice, there was an ouzo. And there was a second ouzo. And I think we would have gotten a third. Very happy again!

Good Greek restaurant, plenty of food, fast and friendly service, cozy atmosphere. Gladly again and again.

Food very tasty and rich. Nice service. Always very busy so it's a little louder

Far too many people there on Saturday evening. Loud like a train station. Food ok Service very friendly

A very good Greek restaurant with very tasty food and top service! If I had to list something negative it would be the noise level in the fully booked restaurant. But this is a circumstance that is often encountered in the catering industry. I recommend making a reservation at least a day in advance, otherwise you won't be able to enjoy good Greek cuisine. We will come back.

Beautiful address with always good food and friendly service!

We really enjoy going here. The whole team is super friendly and the food is great.

A restaurant that I remember from my youth. Simply recommended, high quality, reasonable prices and friendly staff. Booking a table in advance is recommended, at popular times it is almost always full😊

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **Delicious Greek Food & Warm Hospitality** Had a fantastic meal at **Symposium** in Bensberg! The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, with a nice mix of traditional and modern touches. The staff was incredibly warm and welcoming, making the experience even better. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh ingredients, generous portions, and perfectly seasoned. The grilled meats were tender and flavorful, and the mezze options were a great way to try different dishes. The homemade dips and warm pita were a highlight! If you’re looking for authentic Greek food in a relaxed setting, **Symposium is a must-visit.** Can’t wait to come back!

Wonderfully good food. Just the right thing to escape the stressful everyday life and simply enjoy a delicious meal

Even though I forgot to make a reservation, the great team managed to get me and my wife a table. Even though the shop was super full, the boss still had time for tips to make the food taste even better 🥰. 5 stars are simply not enough for the team 🤩.

Highly recommended! Super delicious food. Any time.

Always my pleasure. Very good food. Price - performance top. Susi has her team under control.

I really don't know of a better Greek restaurant. The employees are ALL polite, loving and always friendly. Everyone cares about making you feel comfortable and happy to come back. The food is great and you can still afford a visit. We'd love to come back. Thank you for the great time with you.

Unique Vasilis is simply the best and always enjoys delicious food.

We really liked it here. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. The service was quick and the food was excellent. We'd love to come back!

Nice Greek restaurant, friendly service and delicious food. We were here for the first time today and will definitely come back again.

We had a very tasty Greek meal. Stifado, Gyros, Lamb etc. Huge portions. There was delicious red house wine, Uzo and Greek beer. Price performance good. It was very crowded on a normal Thursday. Good thing we did had reserved. The only drawback was that it was so loud that conversation was only possible to a limited extent.

I can only recommend whether you take the food with you or are there. Always great

Very tasty food, very friendly team. We want to come back...

Very nice staff and super delicious food👍🏼 Thank you

The food was simply amazing! We spontaneously got a table on a Friday evening and had a really tasty starter. The waiters were all very nice and, above all, very attentive. The main courses were also very tasty. Only recommended! We'd love to come back.

Very authentic Greek, a fabulous restaurant where you feel like you are at home with friends. The food was incredibly delicious and we were welcomed with open arms as if we were there every week. It was the first time :-) but it certainly won't be the last time!!

By far the best Greek in the entire area. Here I regularly enjoy the best souvlaki skewers I've ever had in Germany. The lunch menu is also highly recommended, perfect for a small appetite. The starter salad and especially the dressing are very tasty. The ouzo served here is at least as good as the excellent service!

An institution among Greek restaurants for so many years. The food is delicious and very filling - so you should think carefully about ordering an appetizer. The service is extremely friendly and committed. There is a regular party atmosphere here in the evenings. This may also be because the guest is always served an ouzo upon greeting, with their meal and afterwards ;-) Conclusion: You have to experience the symposium!

We were lucky and got a table. Food was again very good. Nice staff as always.

Nice restaurant with delicious food and top service.

I just had dinner here with family The food is good. Service is very nice. I would like to come here more often. ❤❤❤❤❤

Food was ok, but no highlights... just simple Greek cuisine. Service hectic and short. Ambiance loud babble of voices...and that's not enough. The music system is turned up...but with pop and rock...unbearable and inappropriate for a Greek restaurant. Better to pick up to go.

Here by chance and we were really impressed by both the service and the food, thank you very much for that

Friendly service and delicious food.

Super nice friendly host. Very tasty food, very good service. We landed here by chance from Bitburg, 200 km away, and were very excited. We will definitely come back again!

Very friendly and accommodating, even without a reservation they try to arrange a table on busy days. Food is plentiful and delicious, we will come again.

Simple but very good food, the owner is a super host, very friendly. We had grilled prawns and sea bream, both excellent. Place was very busy when we were there (Saturday) evening so would recommend to make a reservation.

Dearest! Super friendly staff, good management and as if that wasn't enough, the quality of the kitchen is also good. We always enjoy being guests there.

A beautiful and cozy restaurant with great and friendly staff. There wasn't a table available at first so we were sent to the bar to wait, which was fine. Here you could drink your first Gaffel Kölsch. The table was ready in no time and we could sit down. Drinks, food, bill - everything came quickly and served to our complete satisfaction. We would be happy to come back on our next trip.

Good taste I think the price for the portion is expensive

Nice atmosphere with friendly service and particularly good food. I can only recommend it to everyone, especially the potato slices ;)

Delicious Greek food and very friendly staff

I go there every now and then for lunch with my father, so far everything has been decent. A little meat-heavy, not surprising, always tasty, good portions and friendly service. Prices reasonable. Often well attended.

Good attention Very delicious Greek food I recommend it

Very friendly staff. Super delicious food and really cozy too. You can easily stay there a little longer

Super great restaurant, friendly service, not a long wait for the food despite the hut being full... and the food was delicious, super fresh. Will definitely come back

A great meal and attentive staff. Price-performance ratio is right. Portion was also more than big enough for us. But we are also a bit older and no longer growing 😀

FANTASTIC SHOP. FANTASTIC FOOD. FANTASTIC STAFF!!! I'm glad to see Greeks owning such shops and moving forward. The sea bream was divine!!! I really have no words to describe how much I loved EVERYTHING. We visited you for the first time, but now I can say that we will be regular customers of the store. Congratulations to the whole team for the quality they produce!! See you again!

After a visit to the Mediterrana the question was, where should we eat? Since we love Greek, we asked people where you can eat good Greek food. Then it came like a shot from a gun at the symposium. Golden tip. Great place. Very friendly staff and the food was absolutely great. The restaurant was very well attended. The food we ordered came after 15 minutes, despite the restaurant being full. And it was absolutely worth every penny. By far the best Greek restaurant we've had in a long time. If we travel back to Bergisch Gladbach from Saarland, we will definitely go to the symposim again. Short and sweet: Great Greetings from the Treitz family

We are currently at a hotel in the area and spontaneously went there without a reservation. Despite the fact that it was busy and there were already a lot of reservations, we managed to get a table. We were served quickly and very friendly. There is a very good selection of food and the portions are large. The food came very quickly. The meat was juicy, tender and very well seasoned. Special requests were also addressed very friendly. All in all, it was the best Greek restaurant I've ever eaten at. I'd love to come back when I'm in the area again!

Very friendly staff. Very good food. Very happy again 😃. We were there again and the food was again excellent. The staff is very well coordinated and very friendly. A very nice restaurant.

Good Greek, tasty food and good service.

Very tasty food, you feel very welcome

Very tasty, friendly service and a great ambience!

Way too loud. Everything is very hectic.

Very good food, nice staff, good mood I would be happy to come back to you and of course recommend it again

Very tasty and quick to eat despite the full tables! It was totally delicious😋 - hot and also sufficient portions, unless you eat onion soup!

Cozy and well-attended restaurant. The portions are huge and worth every euro. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Payment possible in cash and with VISA.

It was tasty and the portion was sufficient. Ambience ok, I didn't pay much attention to it.

Very friendly service, food on point. Portions could be a little larger considering the prices. It's busy, so make sure you make a reservation.

The gyros don't suit my taste. The seasoning is too bland and I like the meat crispy.

Very tasty and simply huge portions.

Great down-to-earth restaurant.

Gutes griechisches Restaurant. Sehr beliebt, da schnelle Küche und Preis-Leistung stimmt! Gemütlich in den abgegrenzten Tischen, ansonsten etwas laut drinnen und für mich zu eng

We were very satisfied. Great food and very nice staff. We will be very happy to come back.

Food: Gyros to take away were fantastic, 5 stars Food in the restaurant: could be improved, had the grill plate. Unfortunately it was partially charred and dry, and the fries were a bit limp. Next time to take away again. 3/5 Ambiance: is terrible, still very reminiscent of its predecessors and screams (and smells) like a pub. You really could have invested more in decoration and renovation/redesign. The store has potential, but unfortunately only 2/5 for ambience.

Nothing special. The starters looked like they were from a bad snack, whether warm or cold. Prices are clearly too high for starters of such average quality and presentation. Waiting times and service also left a lot to be desired. Would rather go somewhere else next time.

Very extensive menu and very tasty food.

Nice, good food, nice staff. Gladly again and recommendation from me..

The food, especially the garlic bread, was very good. The boss was very personable and accommodating. Only recommended.

We were passing through and ended up in this restaurant by chance. Could sit outside. Nice and polite service. There is a lunch menu. Food was fresh and juicy. Can be highly recommended.

Very tasty food and great service!

Great food. Very good service. Prices/performance is more than reasonable. We recommend.

There are super delicious gyros here

Super very tasty, very attentive and friendly. Food came quickly even though it was very busy.

Good food at reasonable prices. Very friendly staff.

A Greek restaurant to fall in love with. We come here very often because we are always amazed by the quality. The food is definitely recommended in every category and the service is also very good. The ambience looks like a normal restaurant. There is still room for improvement here. It's clean and cozy. There is also seating outside to enjoy food in a good atmosphere. Parking spaces are available in the immediate vicinity. This restaurant is ideal for people with walking difficulties and wheelchair users. We can highly recommend the restaurant.

Very friendly staff and good food

Friendly, fast team! It's nice to sit in the ambience, which has remained unchanged for 30 years! Otherwise, it's a mystery to me why the food gets so many good reviews. After the grilled plate and the liver, my wife and I were sick for hours. In my opinion, nothing was freshly prepared! The salad certainly comes in a bucket! The meat was totally over-seasoned! The lamb chops were tough and dry! I didn't get full from the grill plate for €20.50, although I'm certainly not a heavy eater. Sorry, in my opinion a gyro plate in any chip shop in the area is more recommended! The food ran after us for hours!

Das Team ist freundlich und schnell! Das Essen ist aber unter aller Kanone! Sorry, aber das war meiner Meinung nach überteuertes, schlechtes, eingekauftes Pommesbuden Essen, das mir stundenlang hinterher gelaufen ist! Davon war sicherlich nichts frisch zubereitet!
