Super delicious fries . Chicken skewer is great too, but didn’t come with the side veggies as shown in other photos. At the end I have to order a full size Greek salad, which taste amazing as well. Really hope they will have a protein veggie/salad combo in the future.

Stopped by for a quick bites before a long gallery tour. Pork shoulder was good, Beef gyro was ok. I’ve felt the Greek white sauce was a bit overpowering and if there was more meet in the wrap that would be awesome. Portion was a bit smaller than my expectations yet a great spot to stop by.

Tziki is a fantastic spot! I’ve tried this place a few times now. First time I had chicken skewers, chicken souvlaki, Greek fries, and one of their salad specials, and then another time I tried the Greek salad and beef kabob souvlaki — everything was delicious. Really quick to get the food out, and stuff is super friendly.

I’m glad to have Tziki in the neighborhood for quick and substantial meals. The pita with pork shoulder was excellent. The pita was fluffy and not too dense. They fill it up with a hefty serving of meat. The tomato saltsa adds just the right amount of subtle heat to the wrap. Though I didn’t see it on the menu, I saw patrons who ordered soup. I would definitely like to try this next time I visit. It’s possible that this spot is much busier during lunch, but when I came for an 8:30pm dinner on Saturday, the service was fast and there was ample seating. I’ll be back!

As promised to the owner, Harry, although late, I will be writing an honest review of Tziki. First and foremost, the place is unassuming, but don't mistake that for weakness. The interior is filled with life and culture, proudly displaying its roots with welcoming flair. The food is reflective of that. Though I am no expert on Greek food, nor am I a big foodie with vast experiences, good food is a universal experience. I had the pork shoulder souvlaki, my girlfriend had the beef kebab. Both were of amazing quality and delicious, neither of which we expected to be as stellar as it was. The pita was perfectly soft and fluffy while retaining a good bite, the pork shoulder had this wonderful smokiness that made it difficult not to go back for more. Everything was well seasoned, even down to the fries we received on the side. The prices are reasonable -- 33 dollars between two people -- and the portions are generous. My pork souvlaki was stuffed to the brim with meat, fresh veggies, and a delicious spicy tomato salsa to cut through the richness. The service was nothing short of stellar, either. The person who took my order was all smiles and understanding, even when I fumbled around with the menu trying to take my order. And no, it wasn't the kind of fake sales rep smile, but a smile of someone happy to help and provide a service. I was almost tempted to tip him right then and there, which I will be doing that the next time I show up. Much to another one of my surprises at Tziki, the owner showed up personally to ask me how the food was. I had first mistaken him as another customer, seeing as he was eating at a table across from us, but that was quickly dispelled. Harry was very humble and sounded genuinely invested in wanting to know how we felt about the food, asking questions about our enjoyment, where we're from, and our experiences with Greek food. Naturally, there was mention of a review -- that is why this review is here, albeit a week late -- but it didn't feel forced or underhanded. All of this is to say: come to Tziki. Try it and immerse yourself in it, because it is rare to find a place as small as this deliver such a punch that is bang for your buck.

My husband introduced me to this place and now I’m obsessed. We’ve gone back several times now. I always get their beef wrap. My husband for their cheese wrap. They add spicy tomato sauce too and it’s just divine. Their French fries with the feta is just chefs kiss. The service is beyond amazing too. They are so sweet and friendly, and they remembered us. Harry is the best. Love this place.

Tziki recently opened in Chelsea, bringing modern Greek street food to the neighborhood with roots in Queens (the founders are from Astoria). The standout dessert is portokalopita—a traditional Greek orange cake made with shredded phyllo and soaked in citrus syrup. It’s part of the siropiasta family, and it’s tender and fragrant, with a wonderful orange-y aroma! Vegetarian options really shine here. The mushroom pita was especially bold and flavorful, and the spanakopita salad comes topped with real phyllo—no shortcuts. Their house-made tzatziki is creamy and refreshing, with a perfect balance of garlic and herbs that complements the dishes well. Everything paired nicely with the EPSA sour cherry soda—lightly sweet, tart, and refreshing. A welcome addition to the area!

Been curious about this tiny new place and it's great for a quick, casual, tasty and well-priced meal! Features souvlakis and a few other Greek delights that we did not try. All tastes fresh and clean, and their spicy tomato sauce is a nice touch. There's a long counter to order from, a couple cooks in back (no visible souvlaki/gyro meat on a spit!), a few communal tables and high top stosouvlakisnt of the windows. Bright, light, Mediterranean in feel, I think it's run by Cypriots because of the decor. Good value, clean, nice counter guy, fun hip hop soundtrack that might have been Greek. We will be back.
