Reviews Summary

Souvlaki is a long-standing family-owned Greek eatery praised for its authentic East Mediterranean dishes, especially the souvlaki and large salads with flavorful dressings. While many customers rave about the quick service and family-friendly atmosphere, a few have noted issues with rude staff and very dry, inedible falafel, suggesting it might be best to avoid that particular dish.

"I look forward to spring time when this place opens. My mother and I eat here. Everything is great about this gem."

Roxy Carroll

"If ever in Fairbanks, AK this is a must try. Excellent souvlaki w/ cucumber sauce. Homemade baklava."

Rose Grant

"A good place for a little somethin' to eat while you're out and about, checking out Pioneer Park. It's even worth a special trip for takeout if you're looking for a basic, authentic, no frills gyro. Their baklava's quite good, too."
