Amazing food and atmosphere. We ordered the wrapped leaves, Baby lamb and vegetarian mousaka. The baby lamb stew was mind blowing, each bite was so flavourful and the lamb was so tender. We also got the orange cake with ice cream which was very delicious as well.

Wow! Absolutely incredible. After multiple visit during our stay in Naxos I can certainly say To Elliniko lives up to all the hype and reviews that it is has been given. We went multiple tried and sampled multiple dishes including staples the Greek salad and mousaka but also their pies, baby goat dish and lamb dish. Everything was exceptional and the entire staff was incredible friendly and appropriately attentive. Highly recommend and definitely a must visit for anyone staying in Naxos or just in for a day trip! Recommend calling for a reservations or planning for an earlier dinner.

This place has the best fries we have ever had!! Definitely make a reservation because it can get busy. There is some covered seating but it's mostly outdoors. We came in May so bring a coat or sweater because it can also get chilly at night. I listened to other reviews and tried the baby goat. It was really delicious and tender. My boyfriend had the pork and also really enjoyed it! The croquettes here are to die for. They were soft and creamy! Definitely get the fries. They have daily specials so we called ahead and asked them to reserve some oso bucco for us the next night! At the end of dinner you are given amazing yogurt, a really yummy shot of liquor, and some dessert. This is by far the best restaurant in all of Naxos!

Amazing restaurant! We had the stuffed vine leaves, the greek salad (big portion), the grilled octopus and the spinach pie and everything was so delicious! It was the best meal we had in Greece! We had the Assyrtiko and it completed the food amazingly! 10/10 experience with the great outdoor seating and good and honest servers

Couldn’t recommend this establishment more, 3rd time on Naxos and our 5th time coming to To Elliniko. Seated immediately, order taken and drinks arrived in under 5 minutes. We got the octopus salad (a highlight always) and the fried cheese rolls to start. I received a huge portion of lamb chops and my wife got the oven roasted aubergine, everything was delicious. We would recommend booking ahead as it’s incredibly popular, and for good reason. We’ll be coming back before heading home.

Was fantastic! We went back multiple times during our stay on Naxos. Our favorites were the orange pie, the mushroom pie, the cheese pie, and deep fried cheese with honey and sesame. The staff was also fantastic and gave us Citron and an orange pie on the house. Absolutely loved it, we will be back next time we are on Naxos.

Like many others, we loved it here so much we ate twice in the few days we were in Naxos. Wow. It checks so many boxes: tasty home cooking, nice outdoor ambience, friendly and patients staff who want to be sure you have a good experience. Our favorite was the Lamb chops - bigger and more meaty than that ones we had at the waterfront tavernas. Must order Kleftiko (slow roasted goat wrapped in parchment paper in clay pot; stayed warm throughout and super tender and flavorful). Rosto (roasted pork in tomato sauce) and Moussaka also good. Get the Greek Salad with Xinomizithra instead of traditional Feta since Naxos is famous for this special cheese. Ask the staff their favorite dishes - you won’t go wrong. It’s in the local area of town which gives it a more authentic feel. Try to eat an earlier dinner or later lunch if you don’t want to wait since it’s so popular. We ate around 5pm each time and we were seated right away. To Elliniko was hands down our most memorable in Naxos.

The food was so wonderful! The cheese was beautifully paired with the honey and jam. The bread was soft and fluffy. The fish was flaky and so wonderful with the lemon butter. The lamb was absolutely to die for. Would definitely recommend dining here!!

Highly recommend this place in Naxos. We booked ahead and got a lovely table in the shade. Food was incredible, the best we have had in Greece. The eggplant dish, stuffed peppers and the beetroot salad were so flavourful. Staff were friendly and accomodating. Lovely ambience and setting.

my favorite restaurant of our trip. the first time we came we ordered the fried feta with honey and sesame seeds and the grilled squid. everything was truly delicious. we finished the meal with a piece of the portakalopita (orange pie) with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. delicious beyond words and a must-order. they gave us complimentary house-made geranium liqueur to finish, which was also super good. our first meal was so incredible that we decided to come back and have a larger meal, as we weren't very hungry the first time and wanted to try some of the other dishes. this time, we ordered the saganaki, octopus in vinegar, fava bean dip, and veal kalogeros. this meal was even more incredible than the first. the octopus was so incredibly tender, and even though I'm not usually an octopus person, it was actually one of the highlights of the trip for me, and I kept going in for bite after savory bite. the kalogeros was also just so incredibly flavorful and delicious. they gave us two pieces of complimentary orange pie for dessert, as well as the house-made geranium liqueur. dont have enough words to describe how lovely this restaurant is! had such a special and unforgettable time here.
