Great Food paired with great service. Great Greek food, I am a Lamb lover and Alekos serves one of the best Lamb dishes. Perfect with some wine... Abit more assortment on the Salad side would be great. Service was perfect and the Pitas were warm...

Great for dinner and a movie. Directly next door to the Orinda theatre and reasonably priced. Bear with the slow servic, this is really great food.

This really is a cafe, and you get your food at the counter. The usual greek cafe foods here (gyros, falafel, souvlaki, etc.) are fine, but the specials are superb. The soups are particularly good. The greek sampler plate varies in minor ways from day to day, and the only invariant in the lamb souvlaki dinner seems to be the lamb, but it is always excellent. The tiramisu they occasionally have is the best I have had anywhere.

When this small restaurant opened a few years ago, I tried it a couple of times because I love Greek food, but was disappointed each time and I stopped trying. The service was slow and the food was mediocre. But since the owner has become more actively involved, the quality and service have improved greatly. The specials are excellent, the prices are reasonable, and (when the owner is there) the service is superb. Ahh, but if the owner is not himself present, the service, and even the food, declines rapidly. I eat there often for lunch and usually get the specials (which are generally excellent). The soups are generally superior. The food often has a flair usually seen only in much more expensive restaurants. But, to tell you the truth, we peek in, and if the owner is not there we continue to Shelby?s around the corner.
