Akropolis

Apparently Plac Solny just wasn't central enough for the Greeks, as they've packed up and plonked themselves in a handsome new location smack on the Rynek. Seems they've also traded up with the interior design, swapping breezy seaside villa for a dark wood, wine-warm elegance more befitting the historic townhouse it now occupies. Indeed the gold and lavender walls seem to compel you to buy an obligatory bottle of red. Remaining is Akropolis' Godfather factor, where well-dressed patrons wine and dine their dames in what is still one of the best ethnic restaurants in the region. The menu of seafood and Greek meats from the grill hits the mark - we ordered lamb and were not disappointed.

WOW! What a treat! Thank you IYP. I almost avoided this place because of the "cigarette-smoking patrons" comments in your review but I was the only customer in the restaurant at 8:30 on a Sunday evening so smoke was NOT a problem. I was worried about being the only customer because other restaurants nearby were somewhat busy so I assumed that that was not a good sign but it turned out well. I started with the spinach and feta and it was fairly delicious even though the feta was a bit over-seasoned. (I cannot get decent feta in Japan so maybe that had something to do with my pleasure.) The pork souvlaki was very tasty even though I did not understand the sauce that came with it. The pork was excellent and cooked perfectly. The Greek salad was also a success. I have found that you cannot go wrong with produce in Poland in summer. I would say that you can skip the bread if they offer it. I love bread and eat it often but it did not even come close to matching the quality of the rest of the meal. Why bother wasting stomach space with so-so bread when all of the other food is so amazing? Oh, it had a funky taste to it. It was like thick sandwich bread that had been grilled on a heated surface where meat had been cooked minutes before. The entire experience was well-worth it though. No regrets...
