"Great spot for a quick bite. We ordered cocktails, ouzo mussels and a Greek salad to share. Both were excellent. Our server was very attentive and friendly. Service was fast, especially since they were moderately busy. We’ll be back!"

"On March 31st we had an absolutely amazing meal at ACROPOLIS: Greek Taverna!l in Apron Springs! Food was soooooo good. Truly one of the best means I’ve had. Most important we had a waiter Manoli, who made quite we were able to have our meal ready just in time for us to catch our flight. He put a rush on everything even though we’re sure chef’s hate that lol. We appreciate his kind service & helping us have a great experience with keeping in mind we were 1.5hrs away from our flight back to Chicago. Thank you Manoli & thank you Akropolis for sharing such a great meal."

"Food is so good you'll be back! The grilled octopus was one of the best plates I have ever had, not as filling for the main dish. The Saganaki was a huge hit. Every table seemed to order it. Bad days ahead when I try to order calamari somewhere else, and it won't be as good as it is here. The gyro plate was outstanding. All the food aside from the cocktail menu is full of delightful drinks. The lavender lemonade and blueberry mojito get thumbs up from me. Ah, what a great meal."
