About
oh my heavens! this is one of my favorite restaurants! every year growing up as a kid we got to pick a restaurant to go to with the entire family, and this was one of my most frequent choices.
I love It's Greek to me, the food, the service always good.
Nico is an excellent server! He helped us with choosing so many delicious options.
We are happy you enjoyed your experience with us and allowed Nikos to guide you through the menu! Hope to see you back soon!
The shrimp, mussels, and salmon tomato soup was the best fish stew I've ever had! I've been searching the web for a similar recipe. Thank you!
So happy you enjoyed our soup as it is one of our favorites as well! Hope to see you back soon to try more of our specialty items!
As always, a favorite place to gather with friends and family. Excellent food, service and ambiance. The delicious, authentic Greek food and friendly environment truly make it a home run for a night out!
Thank you for joining us and your very positive feedback! It is our goal to try and make it the best experience for all our guests ! So happy you all enjoyed! We look forward in seeing you back soon! OPA!
The food was delicious. Only criticism would be is that it was a little dark inside and difficult to read the menus. Also did not like the menu - it was difficult to handle.
Food was amazing as always. I love this place! Can’t wait for the weather to warm up so we can dine in the beautiful courtyard again.
It makes us happy you are happy! We look forward in seeing you back soon!
I always appreciate when I return to a restaurant because I had a prior good experience and they can deliver the same meal consistently. I went to dinner with a friend and had suggested this place because of this very reason - we were both very hungry and just wanted something good! It was a plus that it just so happened to be wine Wednesday too. (:
Thank you for your kind feedback . It makes us happy that you enjoyed! If you like the Wine Wednesdays , please make sure you check back as we are bringing in more fun Greek wines and planning some fun things for Wine Wednesday tastings and food pairings in the future! Hope to see you back soon !
I loved so many of the items we tried. The octopus and calamari were stellar, the pita is amazing---pillowy and a just a tiny bit chewy. I didn't love the pasta bake I ordered because I didn't realize it contained nutmeg- one of the only spices I can't stand. Every other food was amazing though, including the gyro!
Thank you for your valuable feedback. It makes us most happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience at IGTM. We are circling back to our kitchen to make sure the nutmeg isn't too overpowering ..we love our pastichio and it should make sure it's perfection next time. Thank you again and hope to see you back soon!
Amazing place to eat. The server was incredibly helpful and nice. The food and smells were absolutely amazing! The wait was a little long as it was a busy night, but nothing too extreme. 10/10 will be returning to try something new on the menu!
Your patronage and feedback are most important to us! It was a pleasure having you join us an extra happy you will return to try something new! Take care and see you soon! OPA!
Took our newest foster child out for a cultural adventure.
Boy was it ever! The flaming cheese went over well. As did the Souvlakia. The chocolate cake put it over the top. Service was a bit spotty as our server forgot our dolmas till the very end. But we love this venue and will always come back.
Congratulations on the new addition to your family and for choosing us to celebrate ! We are so happy you enjoyed the Saganaki cheese and all the other items you choose..well done on the selection! We sincerely apologize for the service and have circled back to our service team. Please let management know when you return and we will get you some dolmathes from us and make it a great experience. Thank you again as we can only get better with this feedback!
I've been coming to It's Greek to Me for many many years. The ambiance and quality of the food are outstanding. We will continue to make it one of our favorite spots! Thank you!
Thank you for your very kind feedback! We are most happy you enjoyed yourselves and will do our best to keep the momentum going! We look forward in seeing you back soon!
Valentine’s Day!

Service and food were both great!! A can’t miss place for dinner and/or cocktails!!
Warm greetings ! Thank you for the feedback and joining us! We hope you can return back soon!
Good food, good service. I love the rack of lamb! My wife’s favorite is the Tashkebab.
It makes us happy to hear that you enjoyed our lamb specialties. Thank you for your patronage!
One of the only places at LynLake intersection that isn't geared to 20 and 30-year-olds, which makes it a good before-theater restaurant for the more mature set. It's always welcoming with good food and good service. The recent updates to the decor and the menu are well done. In summer, try the patio!
Thank you for joining us at IGTM! We are very happy to hear the you enjoyed your time with us! We are truly focused on making a place that welcomes all age groups with authentic Greek Med cuisine! We are glad you enjoyed the recent updates! Please watch for more updates soon! Hope to see you back soon!
Parking was a nightmare. The lot they said the parking was full and street parking was blocks away. The venue was so dark I couldn't even read the menu.
Thank you for joining us at IGTM . There are a few new underground public parking spots available a block away which have proved to be helpful to our patron. We are constantly monitoring more new spots as they come up in our area with all the new construction and additional parking. Thank you !
Excellent restaurant. Dependably great food. Pleasant, informed staff. I try to get here a few times per year. During warm months, outside seating is a pleasure.
It makes us most happy you had a good experience. We so appreciate your patronage and strive to make each of your visits the best they can be! Stay warm and hope to see you back soon!
As always, we had an amazing dinner at It's Greek to Me! Outstanding service, food, ambiance... everything. This is one of our favorite restaurants in the Twin Cities. The food is always fabulous and the friendly environment makes it a no risk night out! If the pork chop is on the menu- it is a must try. The best pork chop I have ever had.
It is always wonderful to have our loyal guests try something different each time they come . It makes us very happy to know that you enjoyed that chop! We love your enthusiasm and are so grateful for your kind review and your support! Warm wishes!
Dry bland salmon and very dry, tasteless rice. They seated us in a makeshift table in front of a door that’s open in warmer months. It made us feel secondary, like we were in the way.
Thank you for joining us . We take pride in delicious salmon with our herb vinaigrette. and rice pilaf which is a staple in our cuisine. Please give us a call as we are circling back to our kitchen and your server to understand this situation better. Our apologies! Our front area of our restaurant /marketplace is permanently used year round and we are sorry it was not to your liking. We pride ourselves in tasty cuisine so your feedback is most important. We would like to speak with you soon.
It’s been years since I’ve been to it’s Greek to me and it was a really great experience! The service was excellent and very fun. The food was terrific with great variety and the ambience was way better than I remembered it. Very impressed! Coming back soon.
Thank you so much for your kind feedback! We hope you get to try some new items next time you come as we love continue with good experiences! Warm wishes!
We were some of the first to arrive for the evening round of meals. The staff was still getting set up, but were very pleasant. We started with a delicious cheese plate, then followed with two recommended entrees by our server. Great selection, and we look forward to coming back in warmer weather for their outdoor patio.
Thank you for joining us and the helpful feedback! We look forward in greeting you any time of the year! Warm wishes this January!
Great food, great atmosphere! Recommend the gyro sample platter
Thank you for your feedback and joining us! Hope to see you back soon! Best to you!
The lamb & vegetable soup was one of the best soups I have ever had- piping hot on a very cold night with vegies that were not overcooked!
It makes us happy you enjoyed the soup as we need it on these cold nights! Thank you for your feedback and for making us your destination comfort spot on a chilly Minnesota evening! Hope to see you back soon!
We attended for an "after" theater/event dinner, had an 8:45pm reservation for 2. Hostess walked us by other quieter locations and sat us directly across from the bar where it was fairly noisy. Server perhaps was irritated that we didn't order appetizers and drinks? We ordered dinner (Gyro platter & Mediterranean chicken), husband ordered a glass of wine to have with dinner, which came a while after we got our food. Didn't ask if I wanted more water, so I had nothing to drink with my food. The food was very good, which is why I would try the place again. Server never game back to refill waters, which we both drained. We could see him leaning against the end of the bar, so he wasn't too busy. He came to ask if we were ready for the check. After he brought the check back for me to sign, then he brought water. Kind of late. Maybe he had gotten plenty of tips already that evening, so he wasn't overly concerned about us.
I always end up ordering octopus when I come here because the way they prepare it is delicious.
Be careful when ordering appetizers or alcohol though because it can get very expensive if you're not careful.
It makes us very happy to see you enjoyed the octopus! We attempt to keep our generous sized appetizers and scratch made spirits at current market place prices and make sure everything is top notch. Thank you so much for joining us !
A little over priced. Food was good. Parking was exceptional terrible.
Thank you so much for joining us and feedback, as we can only improve with this information ! We truly try to keep our items at fair current prices which can be challenging when you are using true authentic products in our house made cuisine. Parking is available behind us in large Jungle parking lot and on our side streets . We are currently exploring more ideas for additional IGTM parking.
Soda was flat. Has been flat several times I have eaten there. Need new machine. Second, was appalled they charged for extra tzeki sauce. 1.25 per Tabelspoon. Would prefer Romain lettuce to frieze.
Thank you for joining us! We apologize about the soda but the good news is that we have just replaced it . Third times's a charm! We offer our House-made salad with arugula and mixed greens which mimics a Green Salata in Greece. We also have a Maroulosalata with is a wonderful julienned Green herb salad with romaine which may enjoy! Our extra Tzatzki Yogurt blend is served a 4 ounce side. We appreciate your feedback!
Years ago this was our go to restaurant. We hadn't been there in a while so decided to go back and were so disappointed. The restaurant was so dark that you couldn't read the menu - many patrons around us were using their phones for light. It took an hour for our food to arrive despite the restaurant being only half-full. It was delicious, but we were starving by the time it arrived.
Amazing food. Great ambiance.
Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback and joining us at IGTM! We can only improve our service by paying attention to all our guests! We hope to see you back soon and make it an all 5 review! Best to you in the New Year!
Food was pretty good and restaurant was beautiful but in the end it was ruined by the inattentive service during a slow early dinner hour, 5pm.
Thank you for joining us at IGTM. We strive to make it the best experience for our guests so if you could call us at IGTM we would like to get details of your visit and make it the best it could be for the future. We appreciate your feedback!
everything was excelllent! This is not the same restaurant it used to be. There is no place in town that does lamb like It's Greek to Me. We will return for sure. I used to order the gyro but the server suggested i try something new....best decision ever!
Thank you so very much for taking the time to give this feedback. We love that you enjoyed and tried something different in our cuisine! We hope you can return soon to try some other new things we have added! Very best to you in the New Year!!

Great service and even better food. Parking is difficult, take a Uber.
It was great having you with us! Many of our guests use the pay park behind our restaurant /by Jungle theater along Garfield avenue or along the side street on Garfield. Happy Holidays!
The octopus was fabulous, the lamb excellent, but the pork disappointing.
It makes us happy you enjoyed the lamb and octopus! Please feel free to reach out to us at the restaurant and discuss the pork entree . We would like to make it right for you. Very best!
Food is always good! I missed your green beans with my entrée tho.
The mini mart table was nice!
Thank you for joining us! The fasolia (green been side) is served sporadically to allow us to showcase some seasonal vegetables. We may be adding it as an optional side in the future. Thank you for your feedback and the best to you in the New Year!
