TAVERNA VASSILI in Wiesbaden

We've been coming here regularly for years and are delighted every time. The food is fresh, authentic, and prepared with love; you can tell that right away. The owner runs the restaurant with passion, and the entire team is warm, attentive, and very friendly. The ambiance is wonderful and inviting! You don't just feel like a guest here, but rather like being welcomed among friends. If you want to experience Greek cuisine and genuine hospitality, this is the place for you. We're already looking forward to our next visit!

It was delicious again, we'll be back. Best regards to Mario and his team. Petra and Ralf

A friendly welcome and friendly service. Unfortunately, it's always fully booked on weekends. Reserve a table early to be sure you get the spot you want.

We were there for the first time. It was absolutely delicious. Excellent value for money.

Delicious food, an ouzo afterward, quick and friendly service, a lovely outdoor terrace—what more could you want? 👍 Recommended

We were at Taverna Vassili on August 24, 2025. The food was beautifully served, and the beef I ordered was tender as butter, but unfortunately tasted a bit harsh, so I suspected it was mutton. Unfortunately, my friend's bifteki were served half-raw. We very politely sent his dish back, which the waitress was already annoyed about. The bifteki came back shredded with blackened crusts and the rude words, "Even more dead." What a nerve! After we complained again, my friend received bifteki that weren't cooked all the way through. The waitress tried to excuse this by trying to pass it off as the meat being succulent thanks to the tomato juice. I'll definitely never go back here! It can always happen that a dish isn't as it should be. But such rude "service" – that's completely unacceptable. Afterwards, I learned from friends that the quality has left a lot to be desired since the change of ownership.

Good food, extremely friendly staff. Well-located beer garden. I'd be happy to go back anytime! Updated and downgraded to 2 stars for service because card payments are apparently only accepted for €40 or more.

I would have loved to eat there...but when I asked if card payments were possible (it says so on Google...but I've had negative experiences), I was told it was only possible if I spent €40 or more...so I left because I don't eat for €40 as a single person....It's a shame - the ambience and the menu were promising....

Super friendly, fast service. All the food was delicious.

We stopped in spontaneously today. A friendly welcome and a nice outdoor table. However, we were a little shocked by the rather poorly designed plates. Two bifteki, each the size of a hand, and rather dry potato slices, even though the menu said it came with rice. €20 - wow. The Vassili grilled plate for just under €30 was appalling. A bifteki, also only the size of a hand, and a small piece of pork fillet and even less lamb, and the potato slices on the side. We're not used to a so-called "grilled plate." Everything tasted okay, but it wasn't a revelation. So, it will be our first and last time.

The food was missing a bit of salt and garlic...otherwise it was really very good....

We spontaneously went there yesterday without a reservation. Almost all the tables were reserved, however. We still got a nice table, and our drinks arrived in no time, along with a water for the dog without even being asked. Very attentive and friendly service. The selection is extensive. The food is nicely presented and tasty. The gyro could have been a bit bigger with the dollop of tzatziki. The fried potatoes were super crispy and not at all greasy. Our visit under the large, old trees was wonderful. The value for money and the ambiance are just right. We'll definitely be back soon – but then with a reservation.

Very tasty food. Great service. We've been there several times, and it's always delicious.

A regular for years (almost weekly!!!!)! The positive sub-stars are justified for the restaurant! But since I only ordered ONE dish 95% of the time, and they decided to remove this ONE important dish from the menu, my world has collapsed. This dish reminds me of my childhood. They cooked it 100% exactly as I remember it. Now it's no longer available... I love this restaurant, but I'm DEEPLY sad that I can't get it anymore and probably won't be able to go there anymore! I would love to continue being a guest, like I did in the years before, but UNFORTUNATELY, I can't be anymore... and that hurts. To love a restaurant that serves THE dish you associate with so much, and then you can't order it anymore. Thank you for giving me a lifetime experience for so many years! BUT UNFORTUNATELY, I can't be a guest anymore... In deep sadness! All the best!

Great greek restaurant with wide offer of typical greek dishes. Nice people as well and we received the meal quickly. I recommend baked pasta with meat and cheese or just gyros (big portion).

Very cool atmosphere Service very friendly and attentive Top tip Unfortunately, the entire meal was too dry The onions were fresh The appetizer was frozen and tasteless Pay 6.90 for tzatziki at a Greek restaurant No value for money We prefer to go a few streets away and get Gyros Pitta, which is tasty We were disappointed and will have a drink in the beer garden next time Okay Beer garden very nice But we come here for the food, and today it just wasn't good

Food was good. It was well stocked, which is why repeat orders took a little longer. Service could be a little more attentive.

The two of us arrived spontaneously, without prior reservation, on a Saturday evening around 4:35 p.m. Although the restaurant wasn't supposed to open until 5:00 p.m., the owner let us in at 4:40 p.m. and showed us to a nice table for two. Very attentive and friendly service – without batting an eyelid, the waitress accommodated our "shared hunger" and served us a small appetizer plate (for one person) followed by a portion of "Gigantes" – both dishes served with two plates and the appropriate bread. Really friendly and appreciative of us – that, of course, was worth a corresponding tip! We will be back!!! Promise!!! You've worked your way onto our personal "10 charts" of the most worth-visiting restaurants! Really!

Der Biergarten ist wirklich wunderschön – eine tolle Atmosphäre zum Verweilen und Genießen. Leider konnte das Essen da nicht mithalten. Es war insgesamt recht fad und geschmacklos. Das Zaziki wurde mit Dill zubereitet, aber frischer Knoblauch war leider nicht herauszuschmecken. Auch die Kartoffelscheiben waren trocken und ohne besonderen Geschmack. Schade – bei diesem schönen Ort hätte ich mir mehr Genuss gewünscht.

No nos trataron bien, aunque habíamos hecho reserva no había mesa reservada, y aunque el restaurante estaba casi vacío nos ofrecieron la peor mesa posible. Mi acompañante pidió un plato que no tenía lo descrito en el menú. Luego de que ella se quejó, le trajeron lo que faltaba pero le cobraron extra. En definitiva una experiencia terrible, no recomiendo este lugar. Hay muy buenos restaurantes griegos en Wiesbaden, pero este no es uno de ellos.

Like an evening on vacation. Food excellent. Conditions very friendly and attentive. Always my pleasure.

Delicious food! Great location right next to the Schloss Biebrich park. After dinner, a lovely walk through the park. Never experienced how quickly the food was on the table here. Within 10 minutes. Very fast, and certainly friendly service

Friendly service, no problem. The food was also meticulously prepared, but also simple Greek fare. However, we found the prices steep. A single grilled octopus arm as an appetizer for €17 is quite steep. A total of over €100 for two appetizers and two main courses, plus four drinks, was a bit steep in our opinion... The "best Greek restaurant in Wiesbaden" will have to get by without us in the future :)

Not really, expensive for the standard. Not fresh. The beer garden is good.

An absolute insider tip! The team is independent, super friendly, and exudes genuine passion. The service was extremely fast and attentive—without being intrusive. And the food? Simply fantastic—fresh, creative, and prepared with love. We'll definitely be back.

Vasilli ist definitiv mein Lieblingsgrieche in Wiesbaden. Tolle Atmosphäre, insbesondere im Sommer unter dem Baum, toller Service und leckeres Essen. Kleine Einschränkung: Scheinbar wurde die Speisekarte vor einiger Zeit geändert, günstige Gerichte gestrichen und zum Teil die Preise sehr stark erhöht. Beispiel, zwei Lammspieße mit Kartoffelscheiben nun fast 29 €. Das macht sich bemerkbar! Statt 45-50 € für zwei Personen, wie noch vor einiger Zeit betrug nun die Rechnung 75 €. Für mich stimmt das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis leider nicht mehr. Dann kann ich auch zu Nobelitaliener gehen… Natürlich gehen wir weiter zu unserem Lieblingsgriechen, aber definitiv aber nicht mehr so oft. Sehr schade.

Highly recommended and the food tastes really delicious.

Used to be our "favorite Greek restaurant." The outdoor terrace under the walnut tree is wonderful! Parking is also very good. On our last few visits, the portions have become smaller and more expensive. The value for money is no longer there. The service is good and fast. All in all, the trip is no longer worth it for us for this price-performance ratio. What a shame....

Super nice team 👍 It tasted very good 👍

A fantastic Greek restaurant! The service is excellent, they offer recommendations if you have any questions, and the food is incredibly delicious. The value for money is also excellent. Thumbs up 👍

Simply fantastic. The food was truly delicious, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Everything was great.

Too expensive I can understand price increases, but when portions become too small at the same time, I get frustrated. For example: Fried zucchini slices with tzatziki (appetizer) cost €8.50 – it comes with 6 slices of zucchini 😳. Really? Zucchini aren't that expensive, so I expected more for the price. Service was nice and friendly as always.

We spontaneously visited the restaurant with our children. The service was excellent. Very attentive and totally child-friendly. The service was very proactive, and the food was also delicious. We'd love to come back. Thank you!

We don't come here too often, but we're always very satisfied. Friendly hosts, good food, and a very pleasant atmosphere. See you soon!

A very nice Greek beer garden in the heart of Biebrich. According to my Greek companion, it's considered very authentic.

It was very tasty and we were served very warmly

A beautiful courtyard. Good staff and best cuisine.

Disappointing for a Greek. At the beginning there was lettuce leaves with ready-made dressing, which is unusual for Greek food. A few olives would have done the trick too. The meat was okay, the fish platter was a disappointment. All frozen fish, all fried plus frozen fried potato slices. Even the fish fillet was fried and was correspondingly hardened. Ambience and staff are good

It used to be a very good Greek restaurant. It used to be, unfortunately. We ate there again for lunch today and were completely disappointed. The so-called gyros were just completely over-seasoned crumbs, everything else on my grill plate was OK but very clear, 2 small skewers and a bit of rice. The price-performance ratio was absolutely not there, in my opinion it was far too expensive and the weapon didn't taste good either. For us it was probably the last time... a shame.

Went for my birthday and it was fantastic! Great friendly staff as well! Super spot!

I recommend! Excellent cuisine and fast service. Extremely friendly staff. Our consumption was typical for a Greek restaurant/taverna: ouzo, Greek salad, zucchini, grilled octopus, sea bream. The price-quality ratio is excellent!

I once posted that it was the best Greek gyros of my life. Unfortunately I had to delete the post. Out of 4 dishes, 1 was good. The zander fillet. Gyros dry, that Potato slices, probably frozen goods, boring in taste. Guys, there's a better way! An additional portion of fries would have cost 4.40 euros as well as rice. Real? 4.40 euros for extra fries? Gyros very dry and cut really small. Very over-seasoned. Don't think we'll see each other again. Kind regards.

Nicely located in the castle park but the food wasn't tasty. The salad was bland, just green lettuce, a bit of coleslaw with three snippets of carrot. The casserole warmed up and not hot, the gyros dry. It's ok to have a drink outside in the neighborhood in the evening. You can eat Greek better in Wiesbaden.

Yes, but I missed some spices in the food. The waitress has a particularly sharp sense of humor, which is not well received on the very first visit.

¡Qué gran hallazgo! Compartimos el plato de aperitivo frío y un plato de pescado grande, ambos eran abundantes y súper sabrosos. El servicio también fue maravilloso, con el propietario personalmente involucrado en hacernos sentir cómodos. Nos llevó a una mesa en la ventana cuando expresamos interés y lanzamos una ronda de ouzos al final. ¡Una excelente experiencia!

The food is still great! However, the portions at lunch were significantly smaller than last time. Therefore one point deducted.

We were there again at the weekend. I would like to underline my previous rating again: Simply GREAT! A piece of Greece directly at the Biebrich Castle Park If you want to enjoy original Greek specialties, this is the right place for you. No matter what you choose from the extensive menu, it is a poem. You can only get something so delicious on the palate in Greece. Especially the service, the warmth, the love of dogs and children make the feeling of being welcome complete. As an allergy sufferer, it is difficult for me to get tasty and varied food in most restaurants. At Vassili I don't just get chicken skewers with tzatziki. Today I ate Juwtzi with beef, Greek pasta and cheese gratinated. There was also a salad. The coleslaw is to die for. Before that I had beetroot salad with garlic. My husband enjoyed his chitpiti and biftekia. In addition to the incredibly good taste, the dishes at Vassili are characterized by the fact that there are no flavor enhancers or other artificial substances in the food. If garlic is on the menu, it's not some weird granular thing that gives me an asthma attack. Garlic is just a fresh clove. If I order something without paprika or pepper, I can also rest assured that it won't be in my food. In addition to the culinary enjoyment, the ambience outside is also an oasis of well-being. You can sit under large trees and/or under the glass roof, completely undisturbed from the outside world. Beautiful plants and the romantically lit bar complete the whole thing. The prices are reasonable and fair. Good quality simply cannot come for free. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

Fantastically located in the Biebrich Castle Park, in summer with a great outdoor terrace under shady trees or inside with great and comfortable seating. The owner and host does his job with passion, chats with the guests and makes a “normal restaurant visit” very special! With lots of peace and quiet, great conversations and funny stories, you'll feel like you're on vacation! It's rare to get such a family feeling and such pleasant, professional service these days! The food is a real delight. This restaurant offers great spices, flavors and a great variety. Everything hot and juicy, nothing dry or cold. Priced totally fair and reasonable! Keep it up, you are a great team, whether in the service or the kitchen, you can feel it straight away!

I felt super welcome Every wish was fulfilled immediately Definitely worth a visit but you should book a table in advance

Highly recommended! It tastes good, that's the most important thing. The service is very, very nice, polite, caring but not intrusive. The food is served quickly on preheated plates. White fabric ceilings, fresh flowers, good light, nice music. Unfortunately I have to leave tomorrow, otherwise I would come back.

We started with the warm appetizer plate. Very good! The service is outstanding!

All in all 👍👍👍 Personally, just good

We had to wait for the food for almost an hour. And when it came, half of the dishes were cold. The taste was disappointing, aswell as the quality of the ingredients. Very greasy. And on top of all that - expensive. The whole experience was just disappointing, I would not recommend it and I cant understand how doest it hold such a high rating

Very nice Greek restaurant. Good service, very good quality. Meat freshly prepared and juicy, side dishes good. Service attentive and not intrusive. Unfortunately my food was no longer really hot when it came to the table. It can happen sometimes, but it still tasted great.

For me the best Greek in Wiesbaden. Great food. Great atmosphere and super friendly staff. I like coming here.

Da stimmt einfach alles. Essen gut, Personal gut, Chef super und ansprechendes Ambiente. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen.

Went to dinner with our regular table of seven people. The service was friendly and very nice. Unfortunately, I wasn't very impressed with the food. Gyros were dry and not very spicy, as were the rest of the dishes. Prices are too high for what you get in return. Stivado with Lamb over 20€ 🙈Hello! Those were three small pieces of meat with potato slices. So it probably won't be my favorite Greek🤨

Super tasty food with good quality. Highly recommended.

Everything was really great 👍👍👍👍 super nice service and the food was super delicious. We'd love to come back!!!

Very tasty food. We had a juicy pink lamb, very tender souflaki with gyros and feta baked in front of it. Everything was incredibly delicious. The service was very attentive. Great, we'd love to come back!

Always good. We enjoy being guests here

Great Greek restaurant. Especially in summer with a beer garden. The food is phenomenal. I've been here 10-15 times and happy every time. Absolute recommendation. We have also spent evenings here with the whole team. 💪 The owner (Mario) and his team/family are great, courteous hosts.

We got a spot at short notice on a Saturday evening. The restaurant exceeded our expectations. Top service. We only waited 20 minutes for our food, which isn't something you find very often these days. We had the grill plate for 3 (No. 113 for €65.90) ​​with tzatziki and a side salad.

Simply top food and staff are a dream. Thank you

The Taverna Vassili, or Taverna PASSili. We came for dinner with friends and thought we were paying for our meal, but apparently we pay for everyone else's too. For a dessert ordered, the second is offered on the bill. What a shame because this restaurant seems to have potential.

Unfortunately, I do not recommend Taverna Vassilli. The service really leaves something to be desired, with endless waiting to order and receive the dishes. Error in the dish then dish arrived cold. A disappointing experience for what could have been a good meal.

More than average value for money, especially when you pay for something you didn't ask for... What's more, some dishes arrived cold. It is more interesting to go to an all-you-can-eat restaurant if you want to eat cold food cheaply.

A remake of the Greek version of the Troika in a formerly Nazified country. Find the error?? Service of the worst kind. After dinner at their house, I bought shares in SMECTA.

Delicious food and nice service, we were super satisfied. Gladly again 😋👍

Hello, without registering we were still warmly welcomed and served excellently. The food was great and very tasty. The waitress was very friendly and polite. I would come back at any time. I was a guest and a king.😃

Great food and service. Unfortunately, the noise level in the restaurant was very high that evening, but that was primarily due to the guests at the neighboring table.

I thought carefully about writing something, the two of us had dinner in this restaurant about 2 months ago. The last time I was there was about 10 years ago and I had very good memories. Unfortunately the visit was a complete failure, I've never eaten so badly in a long time, carelessly dressed and over-salted salad, burnt beef cake and unfriendly service. Price performance ratio a disaster. over 60 euros for 2 people. One had the feeling of mass processing. It's a shame, basically a very nice garden to sit outside. There are much better Greek restaurants in Wiesbaden. I put the place on my red list.

Very nice restaurant. Great atmosphere. Very attentive service

Great place. Food was very tasty and fresh. We will come back.

A beautiful beer garden under a tree, there are also covered open spaces to enjoy the food. Had a lamb skewer that I really enjoyed.

Delicious food, friendly staff. Nice larger and shady outdoor area.

We only went in for a drink, but we will definitely come to eat as well. Nice service and great food selection!

A very nice evening with great food, we will be back.

Normal, good, tidy, friendly. I enjoyed bring there. Nothing special to say. Go there.

Very good quality food at absolutely reasonable prices, friendly staff and a very nice beer garden

Very nice restaurant with a beer garden. Large selection of food. Food tastes good and the staff is friendly and attentive.

Delicious food, friendly staff, the terrace is a real oasis in this heat.

Yesterday the three of us had dinner on the terrace again and were thrilled again: very attentive, friendly service, beautiful ambience under a large tree, delicious dishes (my Gyros Metaxa was so good!) and very good portions. Price-performance is completely consistent here. We love coming back again and again!

I made the effort and read a few applications, so I like to eat and I can't say that portions are too small, it's really enough. From being too expensive, well, what's cheap today, so the quality of the ingredients was good, so I think the prices are justified and you want to pay the staff decently. The service was good too so what more could you want.

I can only recommend the food, especially the tomato feta salad is an interesting variation on the plate

August 2024 The service staff seemed stressed and had short syllables. I had Gyros Metaxa with cheese gratin and fried Potato slices and a salad. The small salad plate came before the main course. It only consisted of green lettuce, some coleslaw (very salty) and a few strips of grated carrot. The dressing was a light sauce that I would essentially characterize as mayonnaise in terms of taste. Unfortunately there was no bread with the salad. The gyros generally tasted good, but was too salty for me. The potato slices seemed deep fried and not fried. I found the value for money for the food to be inadequate. But you could easily sit outside. There were still some parking spaces available on the street.

Extensive menu, but still very well attended, we were seated on the terrace and served quite quickly.

Very good Greek. Some dishes are a bit pricey, but good.

Wonderful terrace under a huge walnut tree.

Outrageous prices and service not exactly friendly. 2 small bifteki and fries 19.90 absolute impudence. The taste of the bifteki was good, but despite the additional coleslaw 5.90 mini, I was still hungry. The side salad was presented completely carelessly. Taste OK. But the price is catastrophically outrageous. Even with organic minced meat, the material costs are 2.50 (replicated because it's so shocking). The service was fairly polite and constantly annoyed. 8 people were here last time.

Great service, great beer garden, great food. Any time.

We were there spontaneously on Saturday. Four adults and three children. First of all: we waited almost 40 minutes with hungry children. Fries for the kids - unsalted - no drama, salt is on the table. My brother and his wife: Warm starter: 6 slices of zucchini with a dollop of garlic paste for €7.90!!! Juwetzki Gyros for €19.90!!! My husband and I (grill plate for 2 just under €46!!!). That was more of a children's record. Much too little. Taste ok. Price performance poor. A carafe of water €6.20!!!! Water ??? When asked, my husband said that he was still hungry and the portion was more than not enough. The “nice” lady who was often described here acted as if she had heard this for the first time. No “compensation” or anything similar was offered. Our bill was €53 and my brother's bill was €77!!! For leaving us hungry. If you are hungry, you tend to decline the “invitation” to ouzo.

Overall, the 3-4 stars are good. There is a deduction mainly because of the disposable packaging for leftover food that was taken away at the end. For a company of 9 people and the corresponding bill, I find this quite unreasonable. Here you can think outside the box. Overall, the food was good to very good. It wasn't quite enough to get 5 stars. Nice covered outdoor area. Prices are a bit high compared to comparable restaurants. But you can think about that beforehand. Service ranges from ok to very good. Depending on the service person. CONCLUSION: good Greek tavern with a nice beer garden.

The bifteki could have been a little bigger, but the taste was good.

Celebrated my 35th birthday in the restaurant. The food was very good, the employees were very friendly. We had two grill plates that were so rich that we were all more than full. Again any time.

Nice terrace to linger, attentive service. Good food (we had the platter)

A beautiful piece of Greece. My dining room. 😉 I can fully recommend Taverna Vassili. Great service, excellent food, excellent drinks. Nice people work here and are obviously highly motivated to do a first-class job.

A beautiful sunny day, eating under the walnut tree. Friendly quick service. Cold drinks and delicious food... an evening couldn't be better.

War immer gerne zum Essen da. Aber mußte feststellen das das Preisleistung sverhältnis nicht mehr stimmt.Grillplatte für 2.Personen.45.90.Tzatziki ein Klecks, Fleisch reichlich,im großen und ganzen sind wir sehr enttäuscht und mußten 6.40 für die nachbestellt Portion bezahlen. Obwohl davon keine Rede war.

We did not feel welcomed... Although we had made a reservation there was no reserved table for us and the one that was offered to us was really obviously the worst possible. The restaurant presents itself as a family business, the landlady was consistently unfriendly and seemed to disapprove of my dog (even though I had mentioned the dog as I had made the reservation). Luckily we were not attended by this person but by a very nice and well intentioned waitress. The food was okay but nothing special. My companion had ordered a dish named after the sort of pasta that accompanies it (and is described as part of the dish on the menu), but she pointed out to the waitress that it came with no pasta at all. The waitress first tried to explain away our complaint, then offered to bring the pasta extra. What really bothered me is that I realized afterwards they had charged extra for that pasta, without even mentioning it. Honestly it was not a pleasant experience and we won't be going back! I personally would not recommend the Taverna Vassili. There are some very good greek restaurants in Wiesbaden that cost the same but offer better food and better service...
