Syrtaki - St. Wendel

I don't understand the reviews. I had terrible gyros. Not cut from the spit more a pangyros as from the supermarket. Very little Zaziki, the rice sharp. Salad without dressing. We have to put the 31 euros in the garbage. Previous experiences were good. I don't know what happened. Anyway, I'll avoid this place.

General: As every year, I met 7 colleagues on the Christmas market in St. Wendel. Christmas market in St. Wendel, i.e. also high-level business in all restaurants and unfortunately you cannot book tables this week in the restaurants of the city center, so I got a cancellation in the inn to Ochsen, in the Manin and also in the Café Journal. So I was glad to book a table in the “Syrtaki” right in front of the Christmas market Rudder. It was my first visit to Syrtaki. The Deligia family spoils its guests in the premises of the former Portofino restaurant in Kelsweilerstrasse with Greek specialities and promises authentic cuisine with Greek ingredients. Not much, new curtains, a new color in warm earth colours, the seating was largely taken over by the predecessor, everything looks like a little dusty in Portofino, but we felt comfortable, not least because of the friendly service in Syrtaki. We were operated by a beautiful Lord; the almost familiar family approach with the guests like – this is how to create regularity. The menu is very extensive, but still manageable, divided into soups, appetizers, salads, grilled pork, beef, poultry and lamb, baked dishes, but also an appealing selection of fish dishes. In addition, there is a regular lunch with prices between €6.50 for e.g. beef liver with roasted onions, fries and salads or €8.80 for seaweed fillet with butter rice, garlic cream and salad. Whoever has the choice has the torment. Like the menu, the drink card has a lot to offer. On the well-sorted wine map you will find wines from different regions of Greece like a white agioritikos from the monk community of Athos. As always, my choice fell on the wonderfully resinous Retsina 0.2l to 3.40 €, simply grilled. Pig fillets and pig fillets were ordered. Gyros in spicy sauce and baked with cheese, pepper steak, red bark with garlic cream, Piperia Florinis with feta, grilled peperoni and especially praised the liver pan, beef liver in metaxas sauce, with fresh herbs, potato slices and salad. My companions were very happy with their choice. I chose the “Helena Plate”, consisting of Gyros, 1 Suvlaki, 1 lamb with rice, Zaziki and salad at 14,80 €. With the first drinks came an ouzo in front of the house, a good, almost mild spoon and no spicy plaster. Then the side salads, a spicy seasoned mixture of fresh leaf salads, white and carrot rays, olive cucumber and tomato slices came. Very good. As already said, my companions were very satisfied. My Helena Teller was also a good choice. All ingredients were of good quality, the cook understands his craft; the rice was nicely loose, the Zaziki for diving was not to garlic and freshly creamy, the Suvlaki consisted of 3 small lean pigs steaks, which were perfectly diced like the piece of lambs and were beautifully tender and juicy on the point, as well as the abundant food has tasted. Bill € 156.20 for 8 people, this is cheap. I would like to recommend the Syrtaki. Conclusion: Greek cuisine authentic, solid, good and cheap.

Very well ate, the lamb on my Helena plate was delicate and tastefully excellent! That's the same way the baked lamb fillets in Metaxsoße, which my wife scolded, were excellent! I don't want to forget the appetizer Kalamaris who has tasted me very well

It was very delicious, the dishes came fast and the portions were sufficient! A point of kidnapping, as the gyro was a bit too strong. recommend

Super delicious food... good prices. Good and friendly service. We like to come back.
