Tno’s is a lovely restaurant with an old-world feel. It’s family-owned, the staff is friendly, gracious, and accommodating, and the food was very fresh. However, like with old-world dining, each item took quite a while to be served. I had the Bronzino fish and it was it was rather bland. Everything else was quite delicious. That said, my party and I agreed it was an exceptional experience. The treat at the end was a scrumptious surprise and delight.

One of the best Greek restaurants outside of Greece. The food is amazing and the service is great (it could be skewed as slow to American standards but is authentic to how service is typically in the Mediterranean so just be prepared) and the staff/owners are so sweet and friendly! Came in a party of seven, we didn’t even order, just left it up to the owners and we were not disappointed! He brought out dishes that were thoughtful, well proportioned, and delicious. Our bill was more than fair at the end- especially for blind ordering. It’s byob so bring a few bottles as you’ll be there a while but where else would you need to be? Will definitely go back soon!

Great family run place. Excellent food. Nice, atmosphere and decor. BYOB. Service is a little bit loosey-goosey. It’s like you’re eating at someone’s house. We love the family who owns it and are regulars. if you are not in a rush and can tolerate a little laxity in the service it’s a great restaurant.

We found Tino’s earlier this summer and have been back three times now. Their food is fresh and delicious!!! It feels very family friendly as the owner is always out and about… Along with very reasonable pricing, this place is BYOB!!! And if you forget to bring your favorite drink, there’s a liquor store directly across the street. And they have outdoor seating which we’ve taken advantage of our last two visits.

The food was superb!! The shareable plate with hummus, baba ganoush, spicy feta, and Tzatziki was incredibly flavorful. The pita bread was bomb!! All the food was amazing. The service made our experience too notch. The owner is so friendly and kind! It rained and he moved mountains to accommodate everyone. The all-rounder (busser, host, runner, etc) Pablo (I think that was his name) is great! He’s on it! He’s thought about your needs well before you even have. I just can’t say enough about our experience! We will be back!

I have held off posting a review because I wanted to keep this place my secret. But the word is out. Tino’s is a wonderful neighborhood addition to the upper Eastside. I’ve taken all my friends and colleagues there and they have been equally impressed. I find myself eating there once or twice a week! The staff is small and juggle many jobs, but they make up for it in their generosity and friendliness. They pay attention to detail. Last week when I dined with a gluten-intolerant friend, they went out of their way to make soft shell crabs gluten-free. Before she ate it, Giannis rushed over to make sure that she got the correct gluten-free plate and it was not mixed up. How kind! The complimentary pita (Greek!) with olive oil is especially tasty. My son, who doesn’t like any kind of cheese, scarfed down the spicy feta dip that it came with and later admitted he was pleased to have discovered a new favorite food. The fish and seafood dishes are always fresh and the souvlaki platters are filling and delicious. I’m not usually a fan of Greek desserts but their baklava is outstanding with a bit of Greek yogurt and honey drizzled on top. The BYOB option and their reasonable prices make it an easy choice when dining out. They never rush anyone but since the inside tables are limited in number and configuration, it’s probably best to make a reservation. Our neighborhood is glad to have Tino’s!!!

Tinos is a great little Greek restaurant serving the best Greek salad with the creamiest feta cheese. The spreads and toasted pita are authentic and the salmon dish with rice was delish. Friendly service. Terrific addition to the upper east side.

This newcomer is truly wonderful! You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, and if you want a truly special meal order the tsipoura (Royal Dorado). It was so wonderful that I wanted to come back and have it again the next night. The Branzini and seafood orzo are also amazing. We were amazed that a delicious dessert was served at the end of the meal. It is a small restaurant so reservations are a must, and BYOB.

Tino's has just appeared in the neighborhood, and I can't remember the last time I was surprised with such a delicious find. It is like having an authentic home cooked Greek dinner with friendly staff, and food that was so good. I tried the spreads, the Greek sausage, the egg lemon soup, the lamb chops, the octopus, the dorado, and grilled calamari. All of the dishes were absolutely slammin'. I wish them all the success as they continue to grow.

We made an 8:45 reso and arrived right on time. We got there and no tables were open so we asked how long until a table opens. They said “20 more minutes at most.” 1 hour later we were still not seated. Some of the customers even apologized to us for having to wait so long for our table but we did not receive any apology from the staff or any complimentary food items. The reason why we stayed there is because they kept saying “the table will be ready any minute now.” If they would have been honest about the wait time in the first place we would have gone to a different restaurant but by then it was too late. When we were seated after standing with our child for 90 mins, we had asked them to bring over our wine 5x. When they finally brought it over, we were already half way to our meal so we decided to not open it. They ran low on their Greek fries so they gave us a very small portion. We were expecting to get a napoleon for dessert but we’re not able to get it because they gave huge pieces to all the other tables and ran out of it. Instead we got a day old frozen Greek yogurt with honey on top. Needless to say, we won’t go back to their restaurant again. We had been here 4x before and it got worse each time. We are also staples on the upper east side and we won’t be recommending this resto to our friends.

They were very crowded and it seemed a bit overwhelmed, which is kind of expected in a new smaller size restaurant. That said, they made every effort to make us comfortable with some pita and dip while waiting at our table. Food was delicious, wait staff very pleasant. A free dessert at the end, while not necessary was a wonderful gesture. Highly recommend dining there!

This was 2nd time we went (in the same week). Delicious food—gracious family atmosphere. The fish is absolutely delicious— moist, flavorful and large portion. I have had branzino and dorado. The horitaki salad is so fresh. The tomatoes so flavorful. And the homemade Greek napoleon desert is to die for. Great addition to the neighborhood. Still working out a few details. They don’t have coffee. Live this neighborhood gem.
