Taverna Jianikos in Berlin

Delicious and always a good atmosphere.

Service great, food (gyros with Metaxa sauce) not good, meat tough, just Greek

Greek ffod at it is best. Excellent service, grilled food and ouzo till you drop 😋

It was very tasty again! The service was also very friendly. Only recommended!

If you just want to get full, you're in good hands here. The food was OK. Everything around it isn't that great.

Very nice staff, delicious Greek food and we were allowed to take our French bulldog into the restaurant. Thank you very much for that. We will definitely come back...

Very carelessly prepared food. Meat + side dish without decoration/salad like in the canteen. There is no Zarziki with the food, you have to order it for 6 euros. I have never experienced this in any Greek restaurant. My tip, there is a better restaurant not far away.

Very tasty food and great service

This Greek restaurant is an absolute delight! The meat was perfectly tender and pink, grilled to perfection and simply delicious. The service was extremely friendly and attentive, so you immediately feel at home here. It's particularly nice to be able to sit outside in the covered areas, even in bad weather. Which creates a relaxed atmosphere. The authentic Greek food and the cozy ambience round it off.

Very good local Greek. Great service!

Everything perfect can be recommended

A pleasant restaurant with typical dishes at a good price. Without intrusive Ouzo animation.

It seemed to me like you didn't feel like working. Decorating meat and fries would have been very nice. The eye also eats. The food came cold. Looked like a children's portion. Ordered without fries, the price was the same as with fries. We did this while clearing away. The table was completely accessible, everything was passed across the table. The only thing that was good. It was the salad. Every little thing was charged extra.

Excellent cuisine! 😋 Great hosts! 🤗 A must when I'm in Berlin! 😃

A great evening, thank you very much

Food was OK, the restaurant is very narrow inside and has a lot of tables. The toilets are rather old and should be renovated. All in all a Greek restaurant, nothing special. As I said, the food was okay, but not a highlight either. I've eaten better. There were four of us there, but we probably wouldn't go again. But a matter of taste.

A good Greek restaurant with a nice atmosphere. Waiter Kostas is almost an entertainer. He always has a quick saying on his lips. Basically, the team seems very harmonious.

The food was tasty, good, a bit carelessly prepared. Sitting outside gave us a bit of a holiday feeling as we know sitting on the street from Kos. The taverna is recommended.

Frozen and reheated casseroles. Raw meat that you send back several times and then the waitress doesn't understand why you don't want to give a tip. Absolutely not recommended.

Very nice staff and super delicious food! You can tell that people enjoy working here. Happy to come back!

Very tasty food, really friendly staff and also very child-friendly

Food and service as always very good. The prices have become a little more expensive.

This was our first time here and will also be our last visit. Food was carelessly thrown onto the plate, not a leaf of lettuce or anything similar, not a dollop of tzatziki. The “grilled” lamb shank has been in the sauce the whole time after production. Service also still has room for improvement. And that at high prices.

Great food, super friendly and full of ouzo. Man felt like he was in Greece. Of course we would be very happy to come back.

It's great there, you're greeted warmly and there's an ouzo right away :) Food also very tasty

Best lamb and Greek food in Germany for a decent price. Amazing service

The food and wine was amazing. Hospitality even more. Among the best Greek food I have ever had.

Delicious food at reasonable prices, super nice service. Unfortunately too close to the main street to sit outside, but otherwise very good.

The meat was great, including the seasoning, but you just have to order everything separately, no tzatziki, no sauces... so unfortunately everything ended up being very dry. The store itself is very simply furnished, the service seemed more like a fast food restaurant than professional.

Food was very good, service was no longer the same and it had also become very expensive.

A very great restaurant, super nice service. So delicious 😋 the employee Kosta was very nice, funny and attentive

This is exactly the restaurant Udo Jürgens meant when he sang Greek wine! Costa and Co are working hard to satisfy their guests quickly, varied food and TWO terraces in the summer and all at reasonable prices: what more could you want?

Very tasty food! Definitely worth a visit! We would like to come again!

Perfect atmosphere, perfect everything, always the best, we know from Asco

A very well-run restaurant for years with first-class food and drinks and very friendly and attentive staff. Here you can unwind with delicious food and drinks and indulge in holiday memories. UPDATE 05/05/2024: Visiting this restaurant is an absolute must. Food, drinks and staff absolutely delicious or great and attentive.

Best service super tasty. Best Grecco

Very friendly and clean restaurant

Very good lamb, friendly service. Attentive. We'd love to come back. Almost always full on Fridays

We have been going to Jianikos for several years and have never been disappointed. The food is great, extra orders or requests are no problem. The only criticism is that you can be unlucky on the weekend without a reservation. The service (thanks Costa) is nice and attentive, the ouzos from the house fly damn low... Great restaurant with good food and great service. Keep it up.

For us, who eat there regularly, it is the best Greek... With Costa you always have something to laugh about

Four of us spontaneously went for dinner at Jianikos. But that was the last time. The food was okay but the service was unfriendly. This has nothing to do with the Greek mentality. The order was taken without emotion. The food came very quickly and was simply thrown onto the table! I have never experienced anything like it. There was no ouzo before or after the meal, something I have never experienced in a Greek restaurant. No recommendation from me and no further visit either. There are much better Greeks in Berlin.

Food was standard, not bad but nothing special either. Good portions. Service is friendly. Ambience is rather old and pub-like.

I give this Greek restaurant a good 4 stars. The food here is really perfect. I have never eaten at a better Greek restaurant, everything was cooked to perfection and very well prepared. The lamb chop is soft like butter on the inside, with gentle roasted aromas on the outside. The Soutzoukaki was incredibly flavorful and there was a free piece of walnut cake for dessert. Unfortunately only 4 stars because of the ambience. The decor is very simple and you don't feel like you're on vacation. We found the regulars' table atmosphere slightly unpleasant; people stood in the aisle, talked loudly across tables and clinked glasses. There are probably some who rate this positively, but it's probably not the right thing for us as a small family who didn't want to explain the raunchy jokes that were made there to our daughter. Update 10 months later as a Lichtenrader who has now settled in: It is impossible not to give the tavern 5 stars. We're celebrating hard now. All the other dishes that I have tried since then are also excellent. This is the best restaurant I know.

As always, delicious and warm service

Good Greek restaurant with nice staff and of course delicious food! Even after more than 25 years, nothing has changed in the rating. Thanks Yianni!

One of the best Greeks in the south of Berlin! Especially with the heart of the restaurant, Costa! The appetizer platter and the Lqmmkottlets are a poem...

The children from Bahnhof Zoo could have prepared what I ordered better. At least they would have had more taste. If a meal is given 3 stars, I don't expect anything more. Still, I was disappointed. 17 euros for gyros with metaxa that is the size of a child's plate and tastes like nothing is disrespectful. It just had no taste. What I also don't recommend ordering is the 0.75 carbonated water bottle. I never thought that you could go wrong with water or at least that it was simply not drinkable. To give you an idea: Have you ever accidentally gotten water in your mouth in a swimming pool full of chlorine? Then you now know what to expect. The positive thing is that the restaurant was so loud because of all the people that you couldn't hear the music, which was a mix of rock and pop. At least not Greek.

Very good lamb skewer and friendly service

Never again. Atmosphere (and crowd) like in a corner bar. Loud and flashy. Eating carelessly (tzatziki literally slapped onto a plate). Meat with fries on a plate, without anything (no onions or at least a lettuce leaf for decoration) like in a fast food restaurant. And it's not all cheap. That was nothing...

Delicious Greek food and great service

Dangerous!!! Anyone who comes here once will always come back.

Everything tastes great, but the lamb fillet and the saddle of lamb steak oooh... simply unsurpassable!!!

Restaurant clear 5 ***** rating! Food very very good. I love squid. A really big cinema is grilled here. But the classic gyros and co. are also highly recommended. Service is simply very nice.....always happy to come here.

The food was good, but unfortunately it wasn't prepared with much heart. Luckily I got the "sauce" in a separate container because it was more of a mush and not really tasty. Actually a nice restaurant, unfortunately there are no tablecloths and the salt and pepper shakers have seen better days. It seems a bit careless, but the whole thing could be improved with a little decoration and a cruet for salt, pepper, oil and vinegar. In their clothing, the staff looked more like conditions in a garden pub.

Immer lecker und immer freundlich. Auf jeden Fall ein guter Grieche in Lichtenrade

Sehr gemütliches Restaurant mit typisch griechischen sehr leckeren Essen. Besonders die mega sympathische und lustige Bedienung läßt uns immer wieder kommen. Und Ouzo gibt es auch immer genug.

Gute bürgerliche griechische Küche. Der Service ist gut, unkompliziert und geht auf den Gast ein. Stimmung ist super.

Nice Greek restaurant with very nice and warm food! Love it and will visit again! 👍🏻

Wir waren echt enttäuscht von Jianikos.Waren einen Moment lang nicht da, aber das Essen auf unseren Tellern wurde lieblos, farblos serviert. Wir hatten es schöner in Erinnerung. Wir saßen im halbdunkeln. Schade!!!!!!!

War ein schöner Abend gute lustige Bedienung.

Super leckeres Essen, Carlos der Kellner is Bombe

Sehr schmackhaftes Essen, nette Bedienung und schönes Ambiente. Allerdings muss man bei der Rechnung aufpassen, da die vollen 19% Mehrwertsteuer abgerechnet und kassiert werden anstatt der 7%, die noch bis Ende des Jahres gelten. Wir haben da locker 17 Euro zu viel bezahlt. Schade drum

Alles sehr lecker geschmeckt 👍 Wir kommen wieder!!

3x dort gegessen. 3x alles top. Da muss man gar nlcht mehr dazu sagen. Freue mich schon auf 4. Mal.

Ich bin dort sehr gerne, super Team und Service. Essen Top.👍

Unser Lieblingsgrieche, super Essen, familiäre Atmosphäre, sehr nette Bewirtschaftung. Unverändert der Lieblingsgrieche...🤗

Essen ist gut, Bedienung etwas unaufmerksam, Ambiente hat einen Touch von einer Berliner Kneipe. Die Preise sind noch einigermaßen akzeptabel.

Leider in allen Bereichen unterdurchschnittlich: Gyros nicht knusprig und in einer zusätzlichen Soße ertränkt, Knoblauchbrot fad, Salat uninspierend wapplig. Räumlichkeiten laut und schallend, sodass man sich schlecht unterhalten konnte. Service eher auf Masse getrimmt (schnell, ungeduldig) als persönlich. Dafür dann auch zu teuer: Gyros, Tsatsiki, Pommes = 16 Euro.

Super leckeres Essen. Kostas ist ein geiler, griechischer Berliner.

Im Außenbereich sehr laut.Kein gutes Ambiente.Eine Bedienung nicht sehr freundlich.Essen teilweise enttäuschend.

Tolles Essen, sehr nette Bedienung. Hier kommen wir bestimmt wieder hin.👌

Lecker Essen, freundliche Mitarbeiter, gern wieder

Das Ambiente wirkte sehr eindrucksvoll, weshalb man guter Dinge in dieses Restaurant ging. Der Service hinterließ den Wunsch nach mehr Freundlichkeit und Zugewandtheit. Sowie der Service, war auch das Essen kein überwältigender Gaumenschmaus. Leider, kein Restaurant, dass ich wieder besuchen würde, da man sich als Gast fehl am Platz fühlt und das Essen die Lieblosigkeit auch nicht ausgleichen konnte.

Nettes Ambiente bei leckerem griechischem Essen. Das Personal hat immer Zeit für ein nettes Wort. Man muss nicht ewig warten, sehr empfehlenswert

Der beste Grieche im Süden Berlins.

Von Vorspeise bis Nachtisch sind wir sehr zufrieden nach Hause gegangen. Wir kommen hier auf jeden Fall noch Mal 😃

Nette Taverne mir originaler griechischen Speisen. Sehr lecker und handgemacht. Hauptspeisen sehen spartanisch aus, Jedoch sind super lecker. Preis Leistung noch wie vor Corona. Ouzo gibt es bis zum abwinken. Unser Ranking 9 von 10.

Die Gasstätte wirkt etwas "gebraucht" und kühl. Die Kellner sind sehr nett und bemüht. Tsatsiki und Knobibrot waren gut, Hauptspeise (Gyros in Metaxasauce) essbar, aber lieblos. Schade.

Gut bedient und prompte Reaktion alles tutti

Immer gutes Essen und freundliches Personal immer ein Besuch wert

Alle Jahre wieder treffen wier uns hier und mit dem Inhaber ist man schnell per Du. Lamm ist hier sehr gut, wird mir von allen Seiten zugerufen. Am Ende war es dann doch ganz was anderes und es hat auch geschmeckt.

Es ist nicht wirklich nachvollziehbar wie ein Kellner modemäßig so abdriftet um in kurzen Hosen zu servieren. Das hat einfach kein Stil. Toiletten waren auch nicht wirklich sauber...auf jeden Fall verbesserungswürdig. Das Essen war gut.

Wie immer gut. Wenigstens einmal im Monat treffen wir uns als Familie dort. Das Essen ist lecker und der Rezina wird im richtigen Glas serviert.🤣 Das scheint irgendwie wichtig zu sein🤔für einen Teil der Familie.

Top! Das Essen war sehr gut. 👍🏼

Super essen,gemütliches draussen sitzen,Das personal sehr freundlich u.aufmerksam,Wichtig immer tisch bestellen, ist gut besucht .Wir kommen gerne wieder:-)

Ich hatte einen Überraschungsteller bestellt. Drauf waren verschiedene Fleischstücke (Hähnchen, Gyros, Hackfleisch usw) mit Reis und Zaziki und vorab einen kleinen Salat. Außerdem gab es direkt am Anfang einen Ouzo und hinterher auch noch einen. Preis-Leistung völlig ok. Das Fleisch war saftig und lecker.

Wir haben draussen gesessen, das ist im bei Hitze angenehm, aber ziemlich laut vom Strassenverkehr. Das Essen und Getränke kamen schnell und es war alles sehr schmackhaft. Besonders empfehlenswert eine Vorspeisenplatte. Was mir fehlte waren die sonst üblichen Knoblauchkartoffeln als Beilage. Ouzo gab es reichlich für die nicht fahrenden. Die Preise sind gegenüber anderen Griechen in Berlin sehr angenehm. Viele Stammgäste und sehr empfehlenswert.

Sehr freundliche Bedienung. Essen frisch zubereitet Gegenüber deutscher Restaurants fühlt man sich als Gast willkommen.

Sehr freundliche Bedienung,Die Reservierung ging unkompliziert per Telefon. Das Essen kam schnell und schmeckte superlecker. Die Qualität ist sehr gut und die Preise moderat.Es war ein schöner Nachmittag. Dankeschön ans Team!

Der Ouzo ist gut. Das Tzatziki ist grandios.

Gutes Essen, moderate Preise, sehr aufmerksamer Service. Was will man mehr.

Einfach super Essen egal was alles toll

Ich hatte das Restaurant ganz gut in Erinnerung vom letzten Sommer. Daher bin ich kürzlich spontan mal wieder dort gewesen. Bei sonnigem Sonntagswetter war die Terrasse nur halb besetzt. Die freien Tische waren allerdings nicht attraktiv. Neben unserem wurde Gerümpel gelagert. Der Tisch mußte erst abgewischt werden als wir Platz nahmen,daß sollte vorher stattfinden. Wir waren etwas in Eile,deshalb sind wir geblieben. Wir entschieden uns für Gyros mit pommes und pastitio. Für frisch gekocht ging es dann aber doch überraschend schnell. Beiden Gerichten fehlte Pfiff und Würze. Der Beilagensalat zum Gyros hatte allerdings ein leckeres Dressing. Alles in allem enttäuschend,vor allem für den Preis.

Es sehr lecker 😋 geschmeckt und Atmosphäre ist auch gut 👍. Komme gerne wieder.

Sehr nettes gemütliches Ambiente. Freundlich und herzlich. Lamm Fleisch ist besonders 😋 lecker

Preis Leistung stimmt nicht Service: sehr ausbaufähig

Das essen ist hervorragend, die Mitarbeiter sehr aufmerksam und zuvorkommend. Wir gehen immer wieder gerne hierher.

Essen war lecker, aber kein Erlebnis. Essen kam ohne Tzatziki und Zwiebeln bei den Fleischgerichten. Teller Tzatziki hat 4€ extra gekostet...

Lecker, wie bisher immer 👍🏼 Immer wieder lecker und angenehm auch mit unseren Zwillingen. Weiter so❗️👌🏼

Super Essen, sehr nette Kellner. Perfekte Portionen. Gerne wieder.
