About the restaurant

The Longest Standing Restaurant In Greektown, Detroit

Brothers Niko and Vasili Dionysopoulos came to America in the late 60’s. They started by selling produce to the Greek churches and then to the businesses in Greektown. They opened Apollo Market on Harper Ave in 1968 till 1970. Then they purchased the Golden Fleece on April 7th 1970. They worked ’till the late 2000’s. Their sons Spero and Yanni took over the family business and remodeled the building and concept after 50 years to continue to give Metro Detroit the authentic Greek experience and hospitality. Now they’re reopening the staple grocery and bakery next door bring the latest and finest Greek imports.

The Dionysopoulos family would like to thank all of you for these amazing 50 years and looking forward to the next 50!

We had a really nice meal. Food and Service was great. We celebrated our daughter's first day on a new job, and Bar Verona gave a free dessert with candles to celebrate. Nice touch.
